VIDEO: First Look - Trailer for Danny Boyle's TRANCE
The first trailer has been released from director Danny Boyle's upcoming drama thriller TRANCE, coming to theaters in March of 2013. The film, written by Joe Ahearne and John Hodge stars James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, and Vincent Cassel. Get a first look below!
In TRANCE, a fine art auctioneer mixed up with a criminal gang joins forces with a hypnotherapist to recover a lost painting. As boundaries between desire, reality and hypnotic suggestion begin to blur, the stakes rise faster than anyone could have anticipated.
In a recent interview Boyle commented on the film: "I wanted to do an updated noir, give it a contemporary spin in terms of emotion. Noir is usually cold. I wanted it to be more emotionally charged. It's The First Time I put a woman at the heart of a movie."

SwiMP3 Wall Charger
It is about time! The wall charger makes going on vacation with my SwiMP3 so much easier. No computer access is needed anymore. Just plug it into the wall. My only concern...do you need a coverter in other countries?
this is a very convient charger
I did not purchase this charger when I got the mp3 player for my husband as a birthday gift. He swims nearly every day at the Y for exercise and enjoyment. He loves the mp3 player and tells me he don't think he would enjoy swimming as much without it now. It is easy to charge in the computer but if we go away, as we did for a weekend recently, it needs to be charged, so I realized he needed this charger. I would recommened to anyone that spends time swimming and wants to have a real enjoyable experience, should try this technology. Its great!

In 2009, he formed a new project called Them Crooked Vultures with Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones, who released their debut album that same year.

Early life[edit]
Homme was born in Joshua Tree, California, and grew up in an affluent family in Palm Desert, California. Homme's grandfather, Cap, moved to the desert from North Dakota when Homme's father was a child. His surname is of Norwegian origin, and is believed to come from the town of Valle. The Homme family have a local street named after them in a golfing community, and Cap has a park named after him in an exclusive enclave of the Coachella Valley.[7] Homme appeared in a 2011 episode of Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations on the area, and discussed having "to create your own fun" as a child growing up in the desert. He also stated that he did not start playing music to "get girls or make money", and that he assumed that he would grow up to be "a good contractor like my dad".[8]
Homme also has ties in Idaho, and has talked in the past about summering there, including experiences such as seeing Carl Perkins perform at the Festival at Sandpoint, Idaho, and buying his first electric guitar (an Ovation Ultra GP) in a Sandpoint music store.[9][10] He began playing guitar at the age of nine, after his parents denied his wishes for a drum kit. He took polka lessons on guitar from ages nine to 11, during which he supposedly did not learn of a barre chord for the first two years, nor of a pick until his third year, lending to his unique playing style.[11] Homme joined his first band Autocracy in 1985, at the age of 12.
Musical career[edit]
Kyuss (1987–1995)[edit]
In 1987, when he was 14 years old, Homme formed a punk rock influenced heavy metal band with schoolmates John Garcia and Brant Bjork in Palm Desert called Katzenjammer; he was the band's guitarist. After changing their name a few times, first to Sons of Kyuss and releasing an EP of the same name, it was finally shortened to Kyuss. The band garnered a cult following by the early 1990s, with the band often driving for hours out to isolated locations in the desert and plugging into generators to perform. These events, known as "generator parties", became urban legend among rock subculture.[12] The band became both famous for their heavy, down tuned, groove oriented music, and infamous for their backstage fights with local LA bands when they traveled into town to play gigs. This soon brought the attention of Chris Goss, who became the bands mentor, helping the band sign to a label and producing them exclusively in an effort to preserve their sound. Due to Josh being younger than 18 at the time of the bands signing, his parents had to sign on his behalf. Kyuss released 3 major label albums, Blues for the Red Sun, Kyuss (Welcome to Sky Valley), and ...And the Circus Leaves Town, all of which are often cited as cornerstones to the development of the stoner rock genre in the 90s. Kyuss partially reformed in 2010 (now known as Vista Chino), but Homme opted to not be part of the reunion.[13]
Queens of the Stone Age (1997–present)[edit]
When Kyuss split up in 1995, Homme joined the Screaming Trees as a rhythm guitarist,[14] touring but not recording with the band. He and vocalist Mark Lanegan became close friends during this time. Disliking the band's continual disharmony, Homme left after just over one year with them. He founded Gamma Ray,[15] a group more centered to his unique style and tastes, which later became Queens of the Stone Age in 1997. The first release under this name would be the aptly named Kyuss/Queens of the Stone Age compilation EP featuring tracks from both Kyuss and songs recorded from the Gamma Ray sessions. Shortly thereafter, Queens of the Stone Age released their eponymous debut album in 1998. Originally, Homme had asked a number of singers, including Lanegan, to perform as lead vocalist for Queens of the Stone Age, but ended up singing for the first time in his career.
Following the debut album and The Split CD with Beaver, Queens of the Stone Age released the next album, Rated R, during which the band used a wider range of instruments to achieve a more relaxed, spacious and psychedelic sound.[16] Though it differed from the band's debut, Rated R became Queens of the Stone Age's first mainstream hit. The next release, 2002's Songs for the Deaf, however, would gain even more buzz from the music community and fans alike.[17] In Songs for the Deaf, Homme continued his filtering of stoner rock and hard rock. The album centers on Homme's memories of uncomfortable rides through the California desert, where he had performed in his days with Kyuss, and where there was little else to do but listen to Spanish radio stations.[18]
During this time, Homme had a falling out with bassist and friend Nick Oliveri. Following the release of Songs for the Deaf, their relationship deteriorated until Homme fired Oliveri from the band in 2004.[19] Homme began writing their next album, Lullabies to Paralyze, named after a lyric from the Songs for the Deaf hidden track "Mosquito Song". Lullabies to Paralyze upon release would debut at number five on the Billboard 200 and was QOTSA's best charting album on the Billboard 200 to date.
Queens of the Stone Age's fifth album, Era Vulgaris, was released in early June 2007 and received generally positive reviews from critics.[20][21][22] The album has proved to be mixed in opinions in the eyes of fans with its departure from heavy, downstroke driven guitar work in change for its angular, hard electronic influenced rhythms. Following the albums' touring cycle, the band took a break to focus on individual projects, during which Homme continued to produce and create more records outside the band. This break would unintentionally turn into a six-year gap between albums.
In 2010, following on from his work with rock supergroup Them Crooked Vultures, Homme confirmed he would be back into live shows with the band. Following a deluxe reissue of Rated R a re-release of their debut album was confirmed as well as a tour to follow it, during which the album was played front to back in the style of which it was recorded, with many of the songs having never been performed since the original release.
On June 4, 2013, after a tumultuous writing and recording process, Queens of the Stone Age released their sixth album, ...Like Clockwork, receiving high critical praise[23] as well as topping the Billboard 200 charts. ...Like Clockwork highlights Homme's collaborative recording process and features guests such as Sir Elton John, Dave Grohl, Alex Turner, Jake Shears, Trent Reznor, Mark Lanegan, Nick Oliveri, and wife Brody Dalle.
The Desert Sessions (1997–present)[edit]
Homme founded The Desert Sessions in 1997 at the Rancho De La Luna in Joshua Tree, California, describing it as a musical collective series "that cannot be defined". He stated:
|At Desert Sessions, you play for the sake of music. That's why it's good for musicians. If someday that's not enough anymore, or that's not the reason behind you doing it – that's not your raison d'être – then a quick reminder like Desert Sessions can do so much for you, it's amazing. It's easy to forget that this all starts from playing in your garage and loving it.
The recordings are done "on the spot" in a matter of hours, and the line-up constantly changes, with new contributors being added for each new recording. Artists such as PJ Harvey, Twiggy Ramirez, Dave Catching, Nick Oliveri, Mark Lanegan, Ben Shepherd, John McBain, Josh Freese, Chris Goss, Alain Johannes, Dean Ween, and many others from the Palm Desert Scene have recorded with The Desert Sessions.
So far, ten volumes from The Desert Sessions have been released. Homme has stated to NME, among others, that he would record more material with The Desert Sessions.
Eagles of Death Metal (1998–present)[edit]
In 1998, Homme formed Eagles of Death Metal with friend Jesse Hughes. Recordings from this project first appeared on Homme's The Desert Sessions Volumes 3 & 4, released that year. Over the next few years, Homme became distracted from EoDM due to the success of Queens of the Stone Age. However, in an October 2008 interview, he re-affirmed his commitment to the band saying, "This isn't a side project for me. I'm in two bands. I have musical schizophrenia, and this is one of those personalities.[24]
So far the band has released three albums: Peace, Love, Death Metal in 2004, Death by Sexy in 2006 and most recently Heart On in 2008. Due to his commitments with Queens of The Stone Age, Homme does not regularly tour with the Eagles of Death Metal, but occasionally makes appearances during live performances.
Them Crooked Vultures (2009–present)[edit]
In July 2009, it was revealed that Homme, Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones were recording together for a musical project named Them Crooked Vultures.[25][26] The trio performed their first show together on August 9, 2009 in Chicago at The Metro to a crowd of approximately 1,100 ticketholders. The band has been steadily touring with live rhythm guitarist/auxiliary man Alain Johannes.[27] Their album, Them Crooked Vultures, was released by Interscope Records in the United States on November 17, 2009, and by Sony Music internationally.[28] They performed on Saturday Night Live as a musical guest on February 6, 2010, and at Austin City Limits on October 2, 2009. Them Crooked Vultures won the Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance at the 53rd Grammy Awards on February 13, 2011.[29][30]
Other projects[edit]
Other acts with which Homme has collaborated include Mondo Generator, Foo Fighters, PJ Harvey, Fatso Jetson, Mark Lanegan Band, Trent Reznor, Masters of Reality, Millionaire, Wellwater Conspiracy, U.N.K.L.E., Primal Scream, Melissa Auf der Maur, Paz Lenchantin, Death from Above 1979, Earthlings?, Mastodon, Peaches, The Strokes, Local H, Biffy Clyro, and Arctic Monkeys. He also collaborated with The Prodigy's Liam Howlett for a remix of The Prodigy track "Take Me to the Hospital" in August 2009. It was re-titled "Take Me to the Hospital (Josh Homme and Liam H.'s wreckage remix)".
Homme contributed (along with Nick Oliveri and Brad Wilk) to the soundtrack for the 2002 film The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys.[31][32]
Homme was notably featured on the compilations Killer Queen: A Tribute to Queen on the song "Stone Cold Crazy" alongside Eleven, Rise Above: 24 Black Flag Songs to Benefit the West Memphis Three, as well as the Turbonegro tribute Alpha Motherfuckers as part of QOTSA covering the song "Back To Dungaree High". The very first use of the QOTSA name was on the compilation album Burn One Up! Music For Stoners featuring a one off lineup of Homme and Dave Catching with Beaver rhythm section Milo Beenhakker and Eva Nahon recording the Catching-penned "18 A.D.".
Homme, along with friend and Kyuss/QOTSA contributor/producer Chris Goss, performed as "The 5:15ers" at the inaugural ArthurBall (an offshoot of the ArthurFest festival) in Los Angeles on January 26, 2006.[33] The two were credited as "The Fififf Teeners" when they co-produced QOTSA's second album, Rated R, and 2007 album, Era Vulgaris.
Homme produced most of the Arctic Monkeys album Humbug[34] as well as providing backing vocals to "All My Own Stunts" on their album Suck It and See. He also appears on their 5th album AM, providing vocals for the tracks, "One For the Road" & "Knee Socks."[35]
In June 2010 Homme appeared on the Comedy Central series Tosh.0 to do an unplugged duet version of the hit viral song What What with Internet celebrity Samwell. He also provided the theme song to Aqua Unit Patrol Squad 1, the show formerly known as Aqua Teen Hunger Force.[36] Homme also collaborated with Mark Lanegan to provide the theme music for Anthony Bourdain's travel show Parts Unknown.
In May 2012, it was revealed on Dean Delray's comedy podcast "Let There Be Talk" that Homme would make a guest appearance on the release from Nick Oliveri's project Mondo Generator called Hell Comes To Your Heart.[37] The album was recorded over three days at Homme's Pink Duck Studios and features Homme playing guitar on the album's final track, "The Last Train"; the first music Homme and Oliveri have collaborated with since their public falling out in 2004. "The Last Train" also features fellow former Kyuss bandmate John Garcia providing vocals, which was recorded shortly before Homme's lawsuit with Garcia regarding the Kyuss Lives! band name. It was the first time Homme had collaborated with Garcia since 1997.
In June 2012, it was revealed that Homme would be starring in Glen Campell's final music video for the song "A Better Place".[38] In the video, Homme plays a bartender that shows Campbell a photo album of his life, from his early childhood through his music career to the present day. The video marked the end of Campbell's musical career, a retrospect on his life following his decision to retire following his diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease.
Homme made a very brief cameo at the end of Jack White's music video for "Freedom at 21", playing a police officer who intercepts White at a roadblock following White's escapades throughout the video.
In September 2012, he contributed the song "Nobody to Love" for the action-drama End of Watch.
In early 2013, Homme and fellow Queens contributors including Alain Johannes and Chris Goss recorded to the soundtrack of Dave Grohl's Sound City: Real to Reel. Goss, Johannes and Homme were on three tracks each. Josh is notably included in a collaboration with Grohl and Trent Reznor called Mantra, and he was also featured in an interview segment.[39]
Homme has appeared in a number of television comedies. In December 2014, Homme made an appearance on Channel 4 sitcom Toast of London. The main star of the show is Matt Berry, who, in BBC sitcom House of Fools, works alongside Morgana Robinson - the half sister of Homme's wife, Brody Dalle. Earlier in the year, Homme also made appearances on IFC's Comedy Bang! Bang! and Portlandia.
Personal life[edit]
Homme and his wife, musician Brody Dalle, have a daughter named Camille Harley Joan Homme (born January 17, 2006) and a son named Orrin Ryder Homme (born August 12, 2011). They reside in Palm Springs, California.
Homme has 17 tattoos. The most visible are on his knuckles, consisting of his grandparents' nicknames with a heart ("Cam", short for "Camille", on the left, and "Cap" on the right). His inner right arm has a straight-edge razor and the words "Born to Win" with his nickname, "Baby Duck", underneath. He has his daughter's name tattooed over his heart.[40][41] After his son was born, he added a heart and his son's initials below his knuckles and the tattoo on his right hand.[42]
Homme has described himself as "very conservative politically" and "very socially liberal", considering himself a "fallen libertarian".[43] He owns several guns, including a classic Winchester rifle, a sawed-off shotgun, and a Beretta 9mm target pistol.[43] He has only ever owned one car, a silver 1967 Chevrolet Camaro, which he has driven since he was 14 years old.[44]
In 2010, Homme said he "died" for a short time following unexpected complications during knee surgery due to asphyxiation. He said that he contracted an MRSA infection, which his immune system could not fight due to stress. Doctors eventually used a defibrillator to revive him following the asphyxiation. The experience left him weakened and unable to produce music for almost two years.[45] Following this, he was confined to bed rest for three months and plunged into a deep depression, considering giving up his music career. He has said that this experience greatly contributed to the making of the Queens of the Stone Age album ...Like Clockwork.[46] He credits Transcendental Meditation with helping him recover.[47]
Homme adopted the pseudonym "Carlo Von Sexron" to credit his playing of bass, keyboard, piano, and drums on such albums as The Desert Sessions Volumes 3 & 4, and Peace, Love, Death Metal from Eagles of Death Metal.[48] Homme is known as "(King) Baby Duck" to Dalle and the members of Eagles of Death Metal.[49] He is also referred to as "J.Ho.", "Joe's Hoe" and "The Ginger Elvis".[50]
In 2004, Homme was arrested for assaulting Dwarves frontman Blag Dahlia and Karl Doyle, at an L.A. club. Upon pleading no contest, Homme was ordered to remain at least 100 yards (91.44 meters) away from Dahlia and the club, was sentenced to 3 years probation with community service, and was forced to enter a rehab program for 60 days.[51]
At the 2008 Norwegian Wood festival in Oslo, Norway, Homme drew criticism for his reaction to an audience member who had thrown a bottle at him during the song "3's & 7's".[52][53] Homme called the audience member a "chicken-shit fucking faggot" and "a 12-year-old dickless fucking turd". The incident drew accusations of homophobia from several blogs, which were then picked up by the mainstream media.[54][55] Homme replied with a lengthy public letter denying all accusations of homophobia, and blamed the tirade on a high fever.[56][57]
Following a performance by QOTSA at the Jay Z-owned Made in America Festival in 2013, Homme made comments about Jay Z during a radio interview with CBC Radio 2's Strombo Show. He explained that his band was frisked by the event's security team prior to the performance and referred to Jay Z's personal interaction with the band as a marketing stunt:
|He has his security frisking the bands on the way in. I just told them if you open up my bag I'm not playing so I guess it's up to you whether we are playing or not... the idea they frisked all my guys, means you're in some different place, no-one has ever done that [to me]... he also gave us some champagne and wanted us to take a photo with it. And I thought, that's not a gift, that is a marketing tool. So I destroyed it. Because I thought it was rude overall. And you shouldn't frisk my guys, you should fuck off.[58]
Musical equipment[edit]
"I don't [share secrets] only because my sound is important to me and I've spent a lot of years just working it over with little tricks here and there, I almost feel like if you reveal too much of that you give away something that's near and dear to you. It's like you put it up on the altar and say, 'Here, everyone take a slice.'"
Homme has in the past been very evasive about his equipment, choosing to either change the subject or even lie when asked about his setup in interviews and objecting to official photos of his pedal board. Although as of recent times Homme has loosened his attitude on the subject, much of Homme's known equipment has been compiled through amateur photos and screenshots performing live and in studio.[60]
In his approach to choosing his equipment, Homme tends to look for the odd or unique, opting to stay away from the typical choices of other guitar players. In an interview about guitars in 2008, Homme claimed at the time to own close to 35 guitars, saying that only 3 of them were "really good". He declared that he purposely did not have a Fender Stratocaster or a Gibson Les Paul, but that he's always in search of intriguing, unique guitars, which are not always generally accepted as "quality" guitars, but are nevertheless great to use. He said that he tends to buy "weird, Japanese" guitars, or guitars that are already "scarred" and thus have a story.[61][62]
Kyuss-era gear[edit]
- Guitars
- Ovation Ultra GP – Homme's original model, in black, was one of only a few hundred ever made in 1984. Homme came across the guitar in a record store in north Idaho after looking for a guitar that would be uniquely his, inspired by Greg Ginn's heavily used plexiglass Dan Armstrong throughout his years in Black Flag.[10]
- Gibson Les Paul Classic Goldtop – 1991 model with gold back and sides used as a backup. Now used by Troy Van Leeuwen.
- Gibson Les Paul double-cut – Early 70s Standard, 1 of 6 customized by "Strings & Things" in Memphis, Tennessee. Owned by Dave Catching.
- B.C. Rich Mockingbird – Used up until Blues for the Red Sun.

- Ovation Viper – Used as a backup.
- Gretsch Corvette - Mid 60s model, used as a backup.
All guitars were roughly tuned by ear to a pitch slightly below C standard tuning, as perfected by Homme by "tuning down until the strings started to flop, and then tuned up a bit."[63][64]
- Amplifiers
- Peavey heads and unknown cabinets – Used during the early days of Kyuss circa Sons of Kyuss and Wretch.
- Marshall JCM 900 with Ampeg SVT 810 bass cabinets – Used on Blues for the Red Sun and Welcome to Sky Valley. Homme also added Marshall or Ampeg guitar cabinets live.

Queens of the Stone Age-era gear[edit]
During the tours up until Lullabies to Paralyze, Homme used his Ovation GPs while switching to first a 60s Fiberglass Airline guitar, then his Gibson Marauder, then his Matons (MS503, 520, and 524), and then finally his Epiphone Dot for songs in E. Following the Songs for the Deaf tour Homme retired his GPs from both live use and recording, and switched to almost exclusively using semihollow guitars such as his Maton BB1200s and MotorAve BelAire's while relying on his Epiphone, Yamaha TVL, Tempo, other BB1200's, and various Telecasters for tunings other than C standard. He has been listed as a user of Seymour Duncan's SH-11, SHR-1b and SH-1 guitar pickups, but has been known to use many other brands including DiMarzio (specifically the Super II pickups) and Arcane.[65]
- Guitars
- MotorAve BelAire – The first ever BelAire model was sold to Homme's longtime collaborator Alain Johannes. A few weeks later Homme ordered one for himself, #11 in a black finish and with a silver scratchplate.[66] The guitar became Homme's primary guitar during the recording of Era Vulgaris. In 2013 Homme ordered two more in natural mahogany and silver, #73 and #86, named after his two children Ryder and Camille for E and C standard tuning respectively, as his main guitars for QOTSA, replacing his longstanding Matons and Epiphone. Homme also owns BelAire #65, which is cherry with a black scratchplate.
- Ovation Ultra GP – Josh's guitar of choice for recording and live use in C standard, Josh first modified his original black model with a Tune-o-Matic style bridge and stop tailpiece in 1997. In 2000, he used a honey sunburst model as a backup before modifying it to have a string-through body for regular use around 2002. In 2003, he replaced the sunburst on tour with his third GP- a wine red model, already modified to the identical specs of the sunburst model's string-through body. They were used in conjunction with the main black model before retiring the guitars altogether in early 2004.
- Maton BB1200 JH – The Josh Homme signature guitar based on his favorite Maton, fitted with custom wound "Hommebuckers" and a trapeze tailpiece.[67] Josh's personal guitar features the toggle switch on the lower bout, unlike the manufactured model.

During the early days of QOTSA much of his late setup from Kyuss was still being used, later Homme turned more towards Ampeg amplifers and cabinets.[73] Throughout his career Homme has experimented a lot with different combinations of amplifiers, cabinets and settings, especially in studio.

With the U.S. Senate defeat of the Obama administration's gun control measures Wednesday, buying a gun in much of America will still be as simple as forking over the cash: No background check required. In fact, one can argue it's much more of a hassle to buy a package of cold medication than it is to purchase a deadly weapon. In the wake of the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., in December that killed 26, including 20 children, several recent surveys suggest most Americans favor tighter gun control. Some 92% of people support background checks for all gun buyers and 91% of households with a gun support such a measure, according to one such survey released last week by the independent Quinnipiac University in Hamden, Conn. Despite those figures, President Barack Obama failed in his latest attempt to push for tougher gun laws — which already vary dramatically from state to state. In Texas, there is no waiting period and no state registration of firearms. Federal law requires that all licensed dealers conduct background checks, but the restriction doesn't apply to private sales and some gun shows. To illustrate the uphill battle such efforts face, here are 5 things arguably harder to buy than buy a gun. — By Quentin Fottrell
Cold medicine
Having the common cold is enough to get one treated like a common criminal. To purchase seemingly innocuous cold medications such as Sudafed, consumers must now show ID and have the purchase logged in a database. It's all because the active ingredient, pseudoephedrine, is the same substance used by chemists to cook up the illegal drug methamphetamine — or crystal meth. Zyrtec-D and Mucinex-D also contain pseudoephedrine. The 2005 Combat Methamphetamine Act limits the amount that can be sold per person and prohibits the purchase of more than nine grams in a 30-day period.
An 18-year-old can't legally buy a beer or liquor in the U.S., but the same teen can buy a gun in most states if he or she is a resident. The Gun Control Act of 1968, enacted in the wake of the assassinations of Martin Luther King and John F. Kennedy, prohibits "licensed gun dealers" from selling handguns and ammunition to people under 21, but there is something of a loophole in this law. An 18-year-old can legally purchase a handgun from a private citizen under federal law and a shotgun and rifle from a licensed dealer, says Mike Campbell, a spokesman at The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Wireless contract
A credit check is usually necessary when buying a cell phone with a two-year contract — something that's not required to buy a gun. If you want to buy a wireless contract without one, however, many carriers ask consumers to hand over an extra $500 as a security deposit. The reason: companies like AT&T and Verizon sell iPhones for roughly one-third of the original market price and make back that money over the course of a two-year wireless contract. A gun, on the other hand, is a one-off transaction (ammunition aside).
Adopting a pet is not to be taken lightly. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals advises people to be prepared. Prospective adopters must be 21, bring two forms of identification — a government-issued ID and a proof of address — but, unlike gun buyers, may be asked to provide personal references. To make sure that the pet is not going to a dysfunctional home, some pet organizations like the Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Wellington, Fla., also have one of their team members perform a home visit before handing over the pet.
Hunting or fishing license
Federal law requires U.S. citizens to provide their Social Security numbers before buying recreational hunting or fishing licenses. (The same, incidentally, is required for getting a credit card.) As part of federal welfare reform, states can deny hunting and fishing licenses to those who have failed to keep up on their child support — and having their Social Security number is one way to find a deadbeat mom or dad. Licensed gun dealers must ask for a government-issued identification like a driver's license, but a Social Security number is not needed to buy a gun.

His TV appearance on iCarly might be the most recognizable Greg Pattillo has ever made, but he and his trio mates - Eric Stephenson and Peter Seymour - have played for millions of people around the world. Based in Brooklyn, PROJECT Trio performs a new breed of high-energy music packed with hip-hop, jazz, rock and beat-boxing. All three members of the trio were once part of the Canton Symphony Orchestra.
No one would ever expect a flute, cello and bass to be in the same sentence as hip-hop or beat-boxing, but don't tell that to over 75 million fans who have viewed their viral video sensations on YouTube or attended one of their concerts. (PROJECT Trio YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/channel/HCLIRr5aA-DzI)
"They are bringing a whole new look to classical music," stated Michelle Mullaly, Executive Director of the Canton Symphony Orchestra. "While classical melodies have pervaded rock, jazz, and popular music for decades, PROJECT Trio is performing the actual classical piece, divinely infused with jazz, rock and hip-hop."
While a member of the Colorado Music Festival, double bass player Seymour and cellist Stephenson conceived of forming a chamber music group that would combine elements of jazz, classical and popular music. Their original idea was to come together two or three times a year in various cities around the United States for a week-long music infusion with concert and educational activities. They approached Pattillo and in 2005, gathered in Cleveland for a series of performances and music workshops for youth. After Pattillo placed a video on YouTube that became a viral success for its unique mix of beat-boxing and flute, he was persuaded to move to New York City to join Seymour and Stephenson.
PROJECT Trio has since recorded three critically acclaimed albums and performed in concert halls, clubs, classrooms and music festivals around the world.
The New York Times hailed the flute-beat-boxing Pattillo as "the best person in the world at what he does." Besides his iCarly appearance (www.youtube.com/watch?v=an-YPMIvHd4), one of his most interesting accolades may be as winner of the Metropolitan Transit Authority's "Music Under New York" program. Among other things, the award gives Pattillo an official permit (if you can call it that) to play music in the New York subway system.
PROJECT Trio appears in concert with select members of the Canton Symphony Orchestra on Saturday, October 19 at 8:00pm at the Canton Palace Theatre. Tickets are $18, $24, and $28. (This is the first concert in the Pops Series. Three-concert series subscriptions are also available for $50, $65 and $75). Dress is casual and concerts are recommended for ages 8 and up.

Wear journal is dedicated to the advancement of basic and applied knowledge concerning the nature of wear of materials. Broadly, topics of interest range from development of fundamental understanding of the mechanisms of wear to innovative solutions to practical engineering problems.
Submissions are invited on such subjects as:
(a) Wear modelling and validation. This includes modelling of fundamental mechanisms as well as the modelling of tribosystems. Approaches may employ contact mechanics, frictional considerations and lubrication concepts in the development of the model, and will always include physical validation of the model.
(b) The development and use of new wear testing methods and standards. This includes the rationale behind their development (including a critique of existing test methodologies where appropriate).
(c) New wear diagnostic tools. The need for these tools and examples of their use in either basic research or engineering should be illustrated.
(d) The development...
