Death Grips is an American experimental hip hop group from Sacramento, California, United States, formed in 2010. The group consists of rapper/vocalist Stefan Burnett (mostly referred to by his unofficial pseudonym, MC Ride), drummer and producer Zach Hill, and co-producer Andy Morin (often erroneously referred to as Flatlander, which is another name Death Grips use for their music production as a band).[3] The band's music has been described as combining hip hop, industrial music, and noise music,[4] and they have been described as "a truly important band of the twenty-first century".[5] They released the mixtape Exmilitary in April 2011, followed by two studio albums in 2012, The Money Store in April, and No Love Deep Web in October, as well as a third album in November 2013, titled Government Plates. Their releases have received positive reviews from music critics all around, including The Money Store placing 9th in Pitchfork's Best Albums of 2012 [6][7] and Government Plates placing at 43 on Spin's 50 Best Albums of 2013 list.[8]
The group announced their disbanding on July 2, 2014, but have released material and performed live since.[9] On February 13, 2015, the group posted a new rehearsal video on their YouTube channel, suggesting a future tour. The video contained the first four tracks from The Powers That B's second disc, Jenny Death, and the first nine seconds of "Lock Your Doors," from their sophomore album, No Love Deep Web.[10] On March 19, 2015, the group posted on Facebook that they "might make some more" music.[11] On March 24, 2015, the band announced a world tour,[12] and posted North American dates for it on their Facebook page.

2010–2011: Formation and Exmilitary[edit]
Death Grips was formed in Sacramento, California on December 21, 2010, by Zach Hill, Andy Morin, and Stefan Burnett.[4]
On the first day of their formation they recorded their first song, "Full Moon (Death Classic)".[13] It was released on March 8, 2011 together with a video and a free self-titled EP which featured "Full Moon" together with five other songs.[14][15] On April 26, 2011, Death Grips released a free mixtape entitled Exmilitary, containing several tracks from the EP along with new cuts.[16][17]
Throughout the spring and early summer in 2011, Death Grips played small live shows while Exmilitary was spreading steadily throughout the Internet. It received several favorable ratings from music critics, with NBCNewYork.com calling it "an intense, dark listen".[18][19][20] During this time the band members were largely elusive, the only known member being Hill.[13]
2012: The Money Store and No Love Deep Web[edit]
On February 27, 2012, Death Grips signed with Epic Records, under the recommendation of Epic's then-executive vice president of marketing Angelica Cob-Baehler,[4] and announced the release of two albums in 2012. The first album, The Money Store, was released on April 21, 2012 while the songs "Blackjack", "Get Got" and "The Fever (Aye Aye)" have been released as singles. Music videos have been released for all three, as well as the track "Lost Boys" alone with no video accompaniment.[21][22][23]
In May the band scheduled a thirty-show international tour to support The Money Store, but shortly afterward cancelled it so they could complete their second album of 2012, which angered many fans and their label.[4] They spent the next four months recording their next album, No Love Deep Web, in Sacramento.[4] During this period the band also remixed two Björk songs, "Sacrifice" and "Thunderbolt", as part of the Biophilia Remix Series[24] after receiving an artist-to-artist note of support[4] and released two songs; "@deathgripz", an unreleased track from The Money Store named after their Twitter account as part of the Adult Swim Singles Program 2012 was released on September 10,[25] and on September 29 the track "True Vulture Bare" was leaked and made known on YouTube.[26] A video for this track was released on October 17 featuring animation from Galen Pehrson. This project was created for the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles.[27]
On October 1, the band self-released their sophomore effort via a website which they linked to from Twitter and Soundcloud, and various filesharing services including BitTorrent.[28][29] This was apparently an effort to bypass the fact that their record label was unwilling to release the album until 2013.[30] The band was dropped by Epic Records on November 1 due to the issues surrounding this incident, including the release of private emails on Facebook.[31]
2013–2014: Government Plates, Niggas on the Moon, and supposed disbandment[edit]
In March 2013, the band released a series of videos to their YouTube account, called "No Hands". On March 20, 2013, a music video for "Lock Your Doors", which was recorded on a live show in SXSW was released.[32] Zach Hill did not attend the show physically, but played the drums via Skype.[33]
On May 10, 2013, it was announced that Hill is currently writing and directing an original feature film. Death Grips will be involved with the soundtrack of the film. The announcement also revealed that Hill is currently working on a new Death Grips album.[34] On July 8, it was announced that Death Grips had launched their new label, Third Worlds. The label was created via "a unique relationship with Harvest/Capitol" and will be distributed by Caroline Records.[35]
Death Grips were scheduled to perform at Lollapalooza in Chicago on August 3, 2013, but their performance was cancelled after the band failed to show up for an "after party" show the previous night at the Bottom Lounge. Fans at the Bottom Lounge show destroyed the band's equipment after being informed of the cancellation.[36][37][38][39] Their subsequent performance scheduled for Montreal's Osheaga Music and Arts Festival on Sunday, August 4, 2013 was also cancelled.[40] It was later discovered that Death Grips never actually planned to appear at Lollapalooza, and the drum kit that was destroyed was a child's learning kit.[41]
On November 13, 2013, Death Grips released Government Plates on their website and shared the link on their Facebook page, as well as music videos for each of the eleven new songs.[42][43] Included in the album was the song "Birds", which had been released earlier in the year. The band's press has said that Government Plates is not an official record, but is only "where they are right now".[44] On November 19, 2013, No Love Deep Web was released on vinyl and CD through Harvest Records,[45] as well as being made available on Spotify.[46] On January 14, 2014, Government Plates was officially released through iTunes and Spotify.[47] On January 16, 2014, it was announced that Warp Music Publishing signed an exclusive worldwide publishing agreement with the group. This agreement covers the previous and future releases by Death Grips.
On January 19, 2014, Zach Hill stated that the band has started recording new material for the next album and is planning to tour in summer.[48] On March 15, 2014, it was confirmed that Death Grips would be touring in support of Nine Inch Nails and Soundgarden throughout their 2014 Summer tour.
On June 8, 2014, Death Grips announced a double album titled The Powers That B, along with a download of disc 1, Niggas on the Moon. The second disc was announced to be titled Jenny Death, with a full release via Harvest Records/Third Worlds scheduled for later in 2014.[49]
On July 2, 2014, Death Grips officially announced their disbandment via Facebook, posting an image of the following message written on a napkin:
"We are now at our best and so Death Grips is over. We have officially stopped. All currently scheduled live dates are canceled. Our upcoming double album The Powers That B will still be delivered worldwide later this year via Harvest/Third Worlds Records. Death Grips was and always has been a conceptual art exhibition anchored by sound and vision. Above and beyond a "band". To our truest fans, please stay legend."[50]
2014–present: Post-'disbandment', Fashion Week, and Jenny Death[edit]
On October 10, 2014, Death Grips announced the completion of The Powers That B via their website and Facebook page, as well as revealing the album artwork.[51] A song from Jenny Death (part two of The Powers That B), entitled "Inanimate Sensation", was released on December 9, 2014.[52]
On January 4, 2015, without any prior notification, Death Grips released a free instrumental soundtrack, entitled Fashion Week. The song titles, follow as: "Runway J", "Runway E" and so on; acrostically spelling out the phrase "JENNY DEATH WHEN", in reference to the upcoming second disc of The Powers That B. Many people believed the Fashion Week title was a hint that Jenny Death would be released during New York Fashion Week or London Fashion Week, both of which fell in February 2015, but passed without the release of the album.
On February 13, 2015 Death Grips uploaded a new video, to their YouTube channel.[10] It showed the group rehearsing new material.
On March 6, 2015, a mysterious Twitter account that had been heavily speculated as being run by the band (@bbpoltergiest[53]), made a surprise announcement that The Powers That B would finally be released on March 31, pre-orders would be available on March 17, and a tour announcement would also be revealed on March 24 (with tickets going on sale, that very same week).[54] This same Twitter account was also responsible for posting a screenshot of the Inanimate Sensation music video, four months before it was released, blatantly announcing at one point that they were "going on tour" and that they've never actually broken up, posting a never-before-seen photo of the inflatable "Blackjack" pills that had been used during previous live Death Grips shows (indicating that there would be a tour coming in the near future), and yet another never-before-seen picture of Hill, Morin, and Burnett all attending Disneyland together, therefore validating the account's probable legitimacy. However, almost all posts from the alleged Twitter account, including their latest announcements, have since been deleted.
On March 10, 2015, thirty second snippets of each song from Jenny Death, leaked onto the internet, via Dutch music retailer Bol.com.[55]
On March 12, 2015, Death Grips published a video to their YouTube channel, for the song "On GP".[56] The video features the band members sitting inside an echo chamber at Studio 1, Sunset Sound Recorders in Los Angeles, California.
On March 13, 2015, Death Grips released the "official" music video for, "On GP".[57] It features various magic tricks, from Sacramento magician, Russell Brown.
On March 17, 2015, Death Grips released the song "The Powers That B" to their YouTube channel, as well as the release date and pre-order links for the album via their Facebook page.[58][59]
On March 19, 2015, Jenny Death was put up to stream on the band's YouTube channel in full, after it had been discovered to have leaked. The same day, the group revealed on Facebook that they 'might make some more', hinting that they intend to continue making music.[11]
On March 24, 2015 Death Grips announced via Facebook that they were going on tour.[60] The tour is said to be the beginning of a world tour & launches in Seattle, WA on June 19. It is currently set to wrap with a concert in San Francisco, CA on July 25. Their announcement reads "additional dates to be announced,".[61]
On March 27, 2015, concert tickets for their 2015 North American tour did go on sale via their Facebook page. On the same post, it had a link to their new video of "I Break Mirrors With My Face in the United States" via YouTube, showing two different performances from the band of the same song from different perspectives, one from one of Zach Hill's drumsticks and another from Burnett's microphone.
On May 6, 2015, Death Grips was announced as a headliner for the FYF Fest 2015 in Los Angeles. They join the acts of Frank Ocean, Toro y Moi, Run The Jewels and among numerous others for the festival.[62]
On June 4, 2015, the album I've Always Been Good At True Love by the I.L.Y's was released through Death Grips' official website. No other information on the band was provided.[63] On June 20, 2015, the band announced that the I.L.Y's is a side project of Zach Hill and Andy Morin.[64]
On June 7, 2015, the group uploaded a music video for their song 'The Powers That B' off of Jenny Death, showing the group cleaning up a torn open bean bag.[65]
Style and artistry[edit]
The band's music has been described as combining noise music, hip hop, punk[66] and industrial music.[4] The group is also known for Burnett's bleak, dark and highly cryptic lyrics and aggressive rapping style. They have also received considerable attention for their wild physical stage performances and stage presence, in which Burnett and Hill often appear topless. Their live performances are notable for containing occasional amounts of instrument destruction, Zach Hill drumming to the point of severe injury[citation needed] (at one time even performing in handcuffs[67]), Stefan Burnett's intense and violent stage persona, and Andy Morin's use of live sampling, improvised synthesizer flourishes, intimidating stage presence, and violent, sporadic movements on stage. The band is also notable for engaging in extended periods of live musical improvisation interwoven seamlessly into their set as bridges between songs, typically performed on the fly by Morin and Hill. Stefan Burnett has been known to adopt many different vocal styles on record and during live performances and such as shouting, screaming, spoken word-style talking and even whispering. Andy Morin's unorthodox style of production and sampling and drummer Zach Hill's noisy, fast and unconventional drumming styles and patterns are also distinct features of Death Grips' unique sound. The band is also notable for their distinctive and low-fidelity visual style, often made clear in their music videos, performances, and releases.
In popular culture[edit]
Rapper Tyler, the Creator,[68] guitarist Tom Morello,[69] Grammy-winning musician Mike Shinoda,[70] award-winning film director Edgar Wright,[71] actor Fred Armisen,[72] former adult actress Sasha Grey,[73] comedian/actor Eric André,[74] and many other notable musicians and celebrities have all expressed their fandom and appreciation for Death Grips in the past.
Björk is one of the most notable fans of the band. Death Grips remixed two tracks for Bastards, a collective album of remixes of tracks from her Biophilia album. Björk recorded original[citation needed] vocal samples for the band which they used on every track of Niggas on the Moon. Award-winning actor Robert Pattinson is also another notable fan and one-time collaborator of the band, making a musical appearance on the song "Birds" from Government Plates, on which he played guitar in an audio recording he sent to the band himself, and then which they later on sampled and altered onto the song itself. Pattinson has also appeared with both two-thirds of the group (Zach Hill and Stefan Burnett) and famed pop vocalist Beyoncé, all posing in the same photo together.[75] Sergio Pizzorno of Kasabian is also a fan of Death Grips and cited them as an influence for their album, 48:13, a UK Number 1 album.[76]
The group's song "Hacker" is featured in the video game Battlefield Hardline. Their songs have also been used on various commercials and TV shows like Waterloo Road and BoJack Horseman. The song "You Might Think He Loves You For Your Money But I Know What He Really Loves You For It's Your Brand New Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat" was used on an Adidas Predator advertisement.[77]

Above and beyondReviewed on 8/14/2012 Jocelyn F
Rob is very organized and cares about each wedding he djs. He helped us throughout the entire process. Rob provided ceremony music, uplighting, and reception music. Rob audio recorded our ceremony, speeches, toasts, and put them on a cd with all of our wedding music. We... Read More received that cd while on our honeymoon. What a fantastic gift to come home to. On the day of the wedding, everything went perfectly. He was on top of everything, he even bustled my dress! We definitely recommend Rob Alberti!
Awesome!Reviewed on 11/09/2012 Erin D
We had Brian as our DJ from Rob Albertis Event Services and he was great! We only met a few times prior to the wedding & he was on the ball with everything! He checked with me that he had all of my bridal parties names correct during the introductions, which to me was... Read More extremely important & he kept the night running smoothly. Brian was walking around the ballroom during dinner (which we knew from talking with him was to make sure people could hear one another talking at the tables over the music). We had planned an anniversary dance and when I kept delaying it for "picture opportunities" he was so flexible just saying "let me know whenever you're ready". We also had a lot of guests missing a big college football game for the wedding and Brian actually gave us a score update during the reception! He played just the music I wanted & even though I just specified "easy listening" for the cocktail hour, so many guests came up to me and were raving about the song choices during that time. I also had amber uplights from Rob Albertis which looked just as I pictured with my fall color scheme. I can't say enough great things about this event company, and in particular, Brian!
Amazing time great DJReviewed on 10/16/2012 lin c
Not only does he have a great personality, he has a ton of experience and knew how to keep our guests dancing. The night flowed great. We opted also for the amber up lighting which was a great touch in the barn and also went for the photo booth which no surprise was a big hit.... Read More HUGE hit. We are still looking at our photo album--- they give you copies of the photos that were taken all night. Everything was amazing. We are so happy we chose Rob. His assistants were also really nice and made the photo booth fun for all of the guests. :) finding this DJ was a total score on our part!!! Great guy. Organized and responsible. We were dancing all night and even decided to extend it for another hour which he obliged. :)
Excellent serviceReviewed on 9/12/2015 Niki K
Rob's lighting work was excellent on both nights we used the services. Rob also acted as an advocate for us when the venue made some last-minute changes to the permit requirements. We are grateful and recommend Rob Alberti's services!
YES!!!! Rob Alberti was a great choice for us from the beginning. We used him and his team for our DJ, uplighting, and photobooth. From the beginning, Rob emails you back quickly and is willing to work with you on exactly what you envision for your perfect day. He has an... Read More online database of music where you can come up with your music selections. I had so much fun working on that leading up to the wedding. We had a big wedding party (10 bridesmaids, 10 groomsmen), each with their own entrance song and Rob nailed it perfectly! Each pair got to enter and have a "spotlight" moment. We even had custom songs for our bride/groom and mother/son dance and he was great playing those. Our uplighting was beautiful at the wedding! The photobooth was a huge hit! The props were great and the guest book is amazing! Our family and friends all got to write fun notes to us next to their picture. On top of all of the ease of planning with Rob and the day of events, he is kind enough to mail you a USB with recordings of your ceremony and toasts after the big day. My husband and I loved listening and reliving the special moments. I highly recommend Rob Alberti!!!!
Loooved Rob!!! He made our wedding day a little extra special!!! We had our wedding at Mechanics hall so the hall was already extravagant but Rob brought the lights & made it glamorous! Thank you Rob!!!!
Rob did the DJ Services at our wedding a couple weeks ago, and it was an excellent job. Him and his crew kept the reception going smoothly through the entire night and nailed our must hear list. I strongly recommend to anyone to get the photo booth as well. It was a huge hit... Read More with all of our guests and us. Thank you Rob very much and I would recommend you guys to anyone planning a party.
Best Time Ever!!Reviewed on 10/26/2014 Lisa G
DJ Tony Simmons was absolutely fantastic! Many positive comments from wedding guests expressing how well he was able to read the guests and play music that kept them on the dance floor. The photobooth was so much fun, too!!
Amazing DJ!Reviewed on 10/13/2014 Deanna N
DJ Tony Simmons knows what he's doing! Tony is a true professional, has an amazing personality, and was a pleasure to work with. In meetings leading up to our event he gave us some great suggestions, many of which we incorporated into our wedding day. He even paid close... Read More attention to the little details that make a big impact, making sure he knew how to pronounce everyone's name for introductions as our reception began (and we had some exceptionally difficult names)! We had provided a play list so Tony would have an idea of our taste in music, he took that list and ran with it, perfectly mixing music the entire night. Everything was perfect and he will definitely be getting additional business compliments of the job he did at our wedding! If Tony is any indication of the DJs provided by Rob Alberti's Event Services, I highly recommend using them for your event!
Best djReviewed on 10/11/2014 cindy m
Our dj was AWESOME! Great music, he kept everyone dancing! Slight miss understanding with the color of the uplighting but he fixed it immediately! Well worth it!

I got married 8/23/14 and the first contract I signed was with Rob Alberti Event Services, they are so professional. They made that process very easy, they had good ideas, every song you can think of and the photobooth is the best investment! Our guests had such a blast! During...

Amazing LightingReviewed on 9/21/2014 Lindsey A

Don't look elsewhere. Rob does it all from Ceremony & reception music to a fun photo booth!Reviewed on 9/20/2014 Bobbie Jo S
We used Rob Alberti's event services at our August 31, 2014 wedding at the Lake of Isles in North Stonington, CT. Rob meet with us twice before the event and was very professional and organized. He really takes time to get to know the couple and did such a great job planning... Read More music for the evening. He had our guests dancing all night long! The photo booth is a must as it not only was a huge hit among our family and friends but we got to take home a beautiful scrap book and thumb drive containing all the photos taken that evening. The photo booth props were a big hit too, we even saw some people wearing them on the dance floor! Rob made sure everything was perfect from hidden microphones at the ceremony, to checking in with us periodically to make sure everything was going well and to make sure the nights events happened on time such as the cake cutting and flower toss. We would use and recommend Rob and his team again for dj and event services.
Amazing Wedding!Reviewed on 9/08/2014 Kaitlyn B
We chose Rob for our 8/23/14 wedding and had a fantastic experience all around! We chose the 6 hour DJ package and also added the photo booth. During my planning process, Rob was professional, friendly, and helpful. He always responded to my questions and concerns quickly.... Read More When we arrived to our reception, Rob came out to make sure we were lined up and ready to be introduced. He used all the songs we had chosen for intros and our first dance. The sound quality for the music as well as the mic for the toasts was great. Dinner music was just what we wanted. He made sure we were ready for cake cutting, bouquet & garter toss, etc. Dancing...I was surprised how packed the dance floor got at times! I never stopped! He took our requests and added in songs to keep the party going. I received many compliments on the music. Photo Booth...everyone LOVED it! There were assistants there to take photos and make them into a scrapbook for us to keep. Very fun! Overall, I would recommend Rob Alberti Event Services to everyone. They made our wedding day so fun, I only wish it didn't go by so fast!
Amzing DJ and lighting!Reviewed on 9/04/2014 kelly c
My husband and I used Alberti's DJ and Event Services. Our DJ name was Brian... Brian was amazing! He met with us whenever we needed, responded quickly to emails and even made changes the week of our wedding to our song list. The mix of music was exactly what we were looking... Read More for, all our guests danced at one point or another. The quality of sound was perfect (no overly loud music or crackling in the speakers, things of that sort). The uplighting was perfectly done (we went with blue). Everyone said the uplighting added a touch of "whimsical" to our reception. Brian was great.. If i ever needed a DJ I would definitely go through Alberti's Event Services.
Brian is great!Reviewed on 8/27/2014 Lisa B
We got married a few weeks ago and used Rob Albertis event services! We used both dj & lighting. We loved how they were so easy to get in contact with, and that they made meeting them easy by meeting at a local restaurant in our home town, very convenient! The lighting in our... Read More room was amazing, and I surprised my husband with the gobo lighting he had wanted, he was thrilled. Brian Birrell was our DJ and he was great! So personable! My only complaints are that The bouquet toss had been overlooked, once I approached him about it we immediately did it but unfortunately my photographer had already left as it was quite late in the night at that point. Otherwise my guests and my husband & I had a amazing night dancing away to the music. We had people of all ages dancing on their chairs!
Amazing DJ and Event LightingReviewed on 8/17/2014 Meghan p
Rob Alberti was the DJ for my brother-in-laws wedding so after getting engaged, Rob was one of our first calls to find out if he was available. Luckily he was and he made sure our wedding was amazing. During the planning stages, he would return phone calls and e-mails very... Read More quickly, and helped provide his knowledge in picking lighting colors and music. We only provided a few must play songs and a few do not play songs, but all of his song choices and transitions were great. He also made sure everything flowed smoothly with the venue and that we were aware of what events were happening next. He was great with passing out some party favors during the dancing to make sure all of our guests were enjoying themselves. Rob provided the music and equipment for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception (including dance floor lighting and up lighting), and we couldn't have been happier. We even had a CD with our ceremony, songs and speeches waiting for us when we returned after our honeymoon! Thank you Rob Alberti and Rob Alberti Event Services for making our wedding such a great night! Meg & Brett
Great photo booth!Reviewed on 8/05/2014 Sophie A
Pat and Aurora from Rob Alberti's event services were friendly and fun photo booth operators at our wedding (7/19/14). They also turned the photos into a fabulous book with messages from our friends and family that we'll keep forever.

Thank you to DJ Brian. He was an awesome DJ. He kept our guests on the dance floor partying. He knew which songs to pick to keep our older and younger guests having fun.

What a partyReviewed on 6/26/2014 Jenna L
Great job! From day one Rob was great. He listened to every request we had and was just amazing. He had every single person on the dance floor for ages 13 to 94. We has a great time. We added his photo booth to our package and also our name in lights on the wall. I now have a... Read More great book of photos that show all my guest having fun along with their kind words written inside. The lights were a last minute add on and I am so glad that we did it. They looked wonderful.
Excellent ServiceReviewed on 6/05/2014 Cassandra A

AMAZING event lightingReviewed on 12/02/2013 Gail C
I used Rob Alberti's for event uplighting at my wedding and it was great. It really made the wedding fun and personalized. Rob and his team are really easy to work with, organized and super nice, I do not have one single complaint.
Great dj, well worth the priceReviewed on 10/14/2013 Julia M
My husband and I hired Rob Alberti for our wedding at the end of July and we were very satisfied with the service we received from him, both before and during the wedding. Rob cost more than other DJ services we had looked at, but after this experience I REALLY recommended... Read More spending the extra money to be guaranteed good service. People are still commenting on how good he was 2 months after the wedding, and we saw many people on the dance floor during the reception whom we'd never seen dance before! We only provided him with a few songs on our "play list" before the wedding, but the rest of the songs he picked out were perfect. I went to several other weddings this summer and the DJs weren't nearly as good, so it's really worth it to pay for quality when it comes to DJs.
Rob is the Best!!!!Reviewed on 10/02/2013 Heather W
Rob Alberti exceeded our expectations in terms of providing entertainment on our wedding day as well as giving us consultations and information along the way. We could not have asked for anyone better. he listened to what we were trying to accomplish and really pointed us in the... Read More right direction. The wedding was a huge success. Everyone was dancing and I couldn't be happier with Rob's services. Worth every penny!

If we compare Black child well-being in America to child well-being in other nations, the U.S. Black infant mortality rate exceeds that in 65 nations including Cuba, Malaysia, and Ukraine. Our incidence of low-birth weight Black infants is higher than in 127 other nations.
Taking the kids to Guatemala provided so many learning opportunities, and not just for the kids either. When we booked our trip, we weren't quite sure what to expect. Then again, that's how we like to travel.
It would be limiting to suppose that Central American youth migrants venture to the United States solely because they were enamored with the unbridled possibilities of the American lifestyle. The enchantment with this apparent abundance and limitlessness is also the result of cultural colonization.

We are the miracle of force and matter making itself over into and will. Incredible. The Life Force experimenting with forms. You for one. Me for another. The Universe has shouted itself alive. We are one of the shouts.
Source: "G.B.S. — Mark V"
If we listened to our intellect, we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go into business, because we'd be cynical. Well, that's nonsense. You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down.
From now on I hope Always to stay Alert, to educate myself as best I can. But lacking this, in Future I will relaxedly turn back to my secret mind to see what it has observed when I thought I was sitting this one out. We never sit anything out. We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is, knowing how to tip ourselves over and let The Beautiful Stuff out.
I don't try to describe the future. I try to prevent it.
Source: quoted by Arthur C. Clarke in London Independent, 1992
You can make yourself happy or miserable - it's the same amount of effort.
Like every beginner, I have thought you could beat, pummel and thrash an idea into existence. Under such treatment, of course, any decent idea folds up its paws, turns on its back, fixes its eyes on eternity, and dies.

My lo was 9 mths on the 7th, around that time she started pointing. I wasn't sure if it was just trying new finger movements or what. I really didn't think she was old enough to get pointing. So, I looked it up.
Somewhere between 9-12 months they start pointing. Today I was nursing her laying in bed before work and she pointed at me and said "ba ba" no idea what she was saying, but it was so funny.
I was wearing my glasses which I don't think I've ever worn in front of her. Still, no idea.
I hadn't seen a post on pointing, also she likes to bang on the little tykes piano, and if you let lo play with your phone they are getting old enough for the toddler lock app I got for odd over 3 yrs ago and highly recommend just search toddler lock, its great for letting them play.

Jessica Jones Shows Off Vertical Leap In New Series Teaser
Recently I had the very good luck to get my hands on a copy of the Garth Ennis and Phillip Bond 2000AD series; Time Flies. After years of searching for back issues, a friend who collects 2000AD gave me a "spare" copy of 2000AD Extreme Edition #19, which compiles the entire series. It isn't that I'm any kind of fanatic for time travel stories (though I do like science fiction), but more that I adore Bond's art and Ennis's writing. For a long time I've been wanting to check out this early work of theirs, and I was very excited to see how the two would collaborate.

I placed my order on a Sunday, and the codes were delivered within 30 minutes. The description for how to use the codes to unlock my phone were clear, and worked first time.
Good service.
Price was slightly higher than what T-Mobile charge to unlock the phone themselves - but the quick service made up for the difference.
