On the other hand, the older units in secondary locations have had a couple of slow years where the secondary market became more tenant friendly because of the falling prices and rents of Abu Dhabi apartments. Because of the lack of amenities offered by these units, their rents are not likely to increase unless the landlords refurbish or redevelop them. Putting the falling rents of these older units in perspective with the increasing rents of high end apartments in Abu Dhabi, one can see some clear signs of polarisation.
According to the experts at Bayut.com, this polarisation may seem like a bad thing but it was no different in Dubai a while ago. "Dubai witnessed a similar kind of polarisation some fourteen or eighteen months ago," revealed Abdul Hakim, Marketing Manager at Bayut.com. "If luck favours Abu Dhabi the same way it did Dubai," he added, "we can see a more uniformity in price hikes for Abu Dhabi apartments for rent as well as sale."

(Michael Zagaris/Getty Images)A federal judge in Philadelphia officially rejected a preliminary approval of a $765 million settlement of NFL claims for more than 20,000 men over 65 years who suffered from concussions and concussion-related symptoms, according to a report from the Associated Press on Tuesday afternoon.The $765 million settlement was first reached this past August.SI WIRE: Sean Payton: Final play called for Marques Colston to stay inboundsU.S. District Judge Anita Brody said she made the ruling over fears that the sum of the settlement was not enough to cover the costs of injuries suffered by the players. She also expressed concern that the sum doesn't factor the retired players who have yet to be diagnosed but could someday experience symptoms related to brain injury.Under the current proposal, athletes with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, better known as Lou Gehrig's disease, would receive $5 million; families of players who have died from brain trauma would receive $4 million; and those who suffered from dementia would receive $3 million.The plaintiffs in the case include at least 10 members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame, including former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Dorsett, Super Bowl-winning quarterback Jim McMahon and the family of Pro Bowl linebacker Junior Seau, who committed suicide in 2012.

08/21/2015 - Country Girl Tackles Homelessness and the DC Metro as USICH Intern
By Mel Sullivan
Let me start with a little background. My name is Mel Sullivan and I am a fourth year LINK-2-LEAD doctoral scholar at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, in the Specialized Educational Services department. My focus is on how institutes of higher education (IHEs) and school districts prepare or train teachers to work with students experiencing homelessness or in foster care. In my future career as a teacher educator, I hope to improve teacher development in this area, in addition to emphasizing collaboration between professionals in education, social work, counseling, and administration. While I happened upon this research topic somewhat by chance, it has become personal to me, as I discovered I have close friends who experienced homelessness during their youth.
When I set out to find a summer internship at a national organization focused on homelessness, I did not anticipate finding one in policy. But, I saw a tweet from the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH) that said they were looking for interns, so I figured I would give it a shot. After a few months, several conference calls, and an epic apartment hunt, I was ready to move to D.C. for my six-week internship! Let me just say here that I am not a city girl; I prefer being in the middle of nowhere. So in addition to a new job, metropolitan life was going to be a completely new experience.
08/14/2015 - Project 25: Saving Money While Saving Lives
By Kris Kuntz
Last week my friend Jeanine passed away. She was found unconscious in her apartment. Jeanine suffered from several health complications including a seizure disorder, bouts of depression, and a long history of drinking. The doctors concluded that her body essentially shut down and that nothing could have been done, although it is hard to believe given her athletic 6'2" frame, outgoing personality, and the fact that she walked five miles every day. She was only 52.
I met Jeanine three years ago in the San Diego County women's jail after her name was brought up among police officers and paramedics as our city's most frequent user of the ER and jail. I was there to talk with her about a program called Project 25. Started in 2011, Project 25 was conceived of by the United Way of San Diego County with support from CSH. The United Way provided the majority of the funding with the County of San Diego, the City of San Diego and the San Diego Housing Commission playing important roles in both financial support and programming. The idea was simple: target the most costly and frequent users of public resources who were living on the streets of San Diego and, using a Housing First model, provide them with permanent housing and intensive wraparound services. Father Joe's Villages managed the services, oversaw the housing, and collected the data to demonstrate the program's effectiveness and savings to the community.
The program started with 25 people, grew to 35, and then added Jeanine as the 36th person in the program after officials in the city asked Project 25 to work with her. Like others in the program, Jeanine was initially resistant to the concept. I would like to say that she agreed to participate on our first meeting in jail and things were perfect from there on out, but that's not the case. We followed her in and out of jail and the ER numerous times before she finally trusted us enough to let us into her life. Once she did, Jeanine was quickly placed into her own apartment and from there the real stabilization began.

A great concert can transform a venue and transport an audience to its own little world. Last night at Bogart's, Zach Condon and his very successful Indie-meets-World-music ensemble Beirut did both in front of a wildly appreciative, sold-out crowd.
Remember the first time you saw Erika Wennerstrom sing in front of the Heartless Bastards and watched amazed as she pummeled her guitar and sang with a ferocity that made her neck veins dance like a cobra in a snake charmer's basket? Brittany Howard approaches her role fronting Alabama Shakes with a similarly wrought intensity and to a familiar result.
Like the Bastards and Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, Howard and Alabama Shakes channel '60s Blues Rock with a contemporary edge on their excellent full-length debut, Boys and Girls.
It's not hard to play spot-the-influences with the Shakes, as the broad experience of the individual members found them looking for the commonalities between James Brown and Otis Redding and Led Zeppelin and AC/DC while working up an early set list. The mega versatile Howard finds them easily with a fluid guitar style that can be Doo Wop sock-hop one minute ("Heartbreaker," the title track), elephant-gun recoil the next (the Joan Armatrading-steered-by-Jimi Hendrix howl of "Be Mine," the loping groin kick of "Hold On"). Vocally, she wails with the hellhound authority of her Soul and Blues influences while pushing the needle into Rock God territory; comparisons to Janis Joplin are not the least bit out of line.
Boys and Girls would be an impressive accomplishment from a band in its middle period, but it's made all the more amazing considering the Shakes have only been together for three years and this represents only their second release. Howard and her cohorts in Alabama Shakes have an impeccable sense of Blues Rock classicism and an exciting sense of how to give it a good rowdy slap into right now.
The middle of the MidPoint weekend is like the middle of a lot of things; the middle of a movie, the middle of a book, the middle of life with an equal measure of glorious accomplishments and missed opportunities behind and the potential for great things still ahead, the middle of an exquisite jelly donut where the filling drips down your chin as you lick the pastry where you just bit with a sensual need for completion.
What was I saying? Right, middle of MidPoint. So here we are in Day 2, quite possibly one of the most anticipated second days of the festival in its long and storied history.
I arrived at Washington Park just as Joseph Arthur was beginning his set. A lot of folks had been hoping that Van Hunt might be accompanying the evening's headliner, our own Afghan Whigs, since he had been touring with The Whigs recently, but Arthur is opening this next leg of the Whigs' triumphant return and so the honor fell to him. And yet the pleasure was all ours, as Arthur put on a brilliant one-man presentation with the help of loops and stomp pedals and a catalog filled with amazing songs, like the powerful "In the Sun" ("because all the best Rock & Roll happens in the middle of the day"). Clearly the most incredible moment of Arthur's set came at its conclusion, when he set up his loops and launched into "I Miss the Zoo," and began drawing an outline with a black paint marker, which almost immediately began to run, on a piece of what looked to be foamcore on an easel set up on stage. While Arthur sang verse after verse, he squirted different colors of paint on various spots around the board, and then picked up a brush and pushed the colors around and into the bleeding black. When he finished the song, he had finished the painting. It was quite astonishing, to say the least. I've been a fan of Arthur's for some time — I interviewed him many years ago — and although I knew he was renowned for his paintings, I had no idea he mixed his media in quite this fashion. It was thrilling to witness.
Next up on the bill was Wussy, quite honestly one of the most redemptive and satisfying second acts in Cincinnati music history. After the nonchalant major label dismissal of Chuck Cleaver's Ass Ponys in the '90s, he returned with a shambling vengeance with Wussy in the new millennium, partnering with Lisa Walker then adding Mark Messerly and Dawn Burman to the fold and making their studio debut with the patently amazing Funeral Dress in 2005. Wussy quickly became a critic's band, famously scoring a huge fan in renowned writer Robert Christgau, who cited both Funeral Dress and 2007's Left For Dead in his Top 10 best albums of the new millennial decade. The arrival of drummer Joe Klug in 2008 gave Wussy the powerful engine they required to hit the subsequent heights they have attained, first with 2011's magnificent Strawberry and now with this year's brilliant Attica!
This latest string of Wussy shows is proving just how powerful and confident the newly minted quintet (with the arrival of former Ass Pony/pedal steeler John Ehrhardt) has become. Klug's presence as a muscular and reliable hammer is certainly one element, Messerly's evolution as an absolutely vital, melodic bassist is another, but in many ways this also boils down to the strengthening chemistry between Cleaver and Walker. The duo's already incredible synergy has morphed into a ferocious and purposeful partnership that yields more dividends with each set and session, and Friday's performance at Washington Park was evidence of Wussy's upward/onward trajectory.
After blazing through a killer romp on "Pulverized," Walker poked the crowd with a gentle threat: "I hope you like 'The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald,' because we're doing all 13 verses … Gord's Gold 2, that's what we've been listening to, exclusively."
Thankfully, no such root canal took place. Instead, Wussy ran through a selection of Attica! and catalog tracks that cemented the band's position as a formidable live entity. "Rainbows and Butterflies" was massive, dense and beautiful while "To the Lightning" howled with an anthemic power surge that accentuated its R.E.M. jangle and Yo La Tengo dissonance, and "Teenage Wasteland" was a showcase of Walker's incalculable gifts and her indispensible role in Wussy. And "Beautiful," like its studio predecessor, started out as a gentle meditation with a menacing undercurrent, but quickly built to a Crazy Horse squall that set off Cleaver and Walker's mantra-like intonation of "I'm not the monster that I once was." If all that wasn't enough, and it surely was, the fivesome finished their round with an unexpected and thoroughly engaging version of Joy Division/New Order's "Ceremony." This set was the best evidence yet that Cleaver may finally be ready to forget about the wounds inflicted by his first go-round with the industry and take his rightful place in the Rock pantheon along with his equally deserving Wussy mates.
At last it was time for the main event, the much-anticipated return of The Afghan Whigs. Each iteration of the Whigs' reclamation has been documented with a local show, but this tour in support of the Whigs' first studio album in a decade and a half, the jaw-dropping Do to the Beast, has been billed — even by some of the band's harshest critics — as the best live performances of their career. Local fans were justifiably amped up about the prospect of experiencing that rush for themselves. To say they weren't disappointed might well be an understatement on a par with "The Beatles kind of changed things."
Naturally, the majority of the set was devoted to Do to the Beast, as the band vaulted into the night air with "Parked Outside" and "Matamoros," guaranteeing that the album and live set opened with the same visceral one-two punch. But where frontman Greg Dulli sounded intense and focused in the studio, he was a coiled truck spring on stage, a spiral of wound up energy that unspooled with a nearly unhinged control.
Surprise was the watchword of the evening. Dulli had hinted to CityBeat that an unexpected guest would be making an appearance and that apparently turned out to be Greenhornes/Raconteurs drummer Patrick Keeler, who proved to be more than up to the task of beating the Whigs' tribal drums and being the percussive foil for John Curley's perpetual bass clinic. And while much of the set list was anchored by Do to the Beast and Gentlemen, about to be reissued in a 21st anniversary two-disc package, there were a number of interesting twists and fan-centric fist pumpers.
The Whigs have always loved mashing up two or more songs, and last night there were a few corkers; Gentlemen's "When We Two Parted" drifting into Drake's "Over My Dead Body," Do to the Beast's "I Am Fire," paired with a tubthumping take on Fleetwood Mac's "Tusk" and the new album's "Lost in the Woods" bleeding into a melancholic shuffle through The Beatles' "It's
Getting Better." Elsewhere, the band partly covered Jeff Buckley's "Morning Theft" to great effect, and opener Joseph Arthur provided backing vocals on the stage front mic for "Can Rova" from Beast while Dulli took his place at the piano.
The band has been running through stellar versions of "Debonair," Black Love's "My Enemy," and 1965's "John the Baptist" and did again, but the end of the Whigs' hometown set provided the greatest fireworks, starting with the almost never performed "Son of the South" from their Sub Pop debut and sophomore album Up In It, and eventually finished with an abbreviated encore, a blazing march through 1965's "Somethin' Hot" and Black Love's "Going to Town." With the 10 p.m. curfew bearing down, Dulli introduced the band and departed with a resounding, "We are the motherfucking Afghan Whigs! We'll see you next time."
The Afghan Whigs have clearly grown to accommodate some of the massive stages they've inhabited as of late. Longtime Whigs fans may lament the loss of the band's less seasoned version, where every club show seemed to be played with the ferocity of rats fighting their way out of a corner. The Afghan Whigs of now feature the cumulative growth that Dulli and Curley have experienced over the past 15 years since the band's demise and that experience is considerable and fairly amazing. Songs that were once acid-etched screeds are now heart-pounding anthems, and that evolution seems neither contrived nor insincere in any way. Dulli still sings them with visceral conviction, but now he possesses a new understanding of himself and his long established mythology and Curley still underpins every song with eye of the storm calm and outer band intensity but now he invests every note with the unrestrained glee of the best second chance ever. It all makes sense to me.
One last observation; the red gels on the stage lights gave the curtain behind the band the blood red appearance of the velvet backdrop on the cover of Congregation. If you carry that metaphor to its logical conclusion, the Whigs were a beautiful naked ebony mother and we were her beautiful naked pale baby and we were all together on a beautiful night under a beautiful sky having a beautiful time. The Whigs' official return to us could not have been more appropriate or better appointed. And then there was Dulli's hopeful parting, "We'll see you next time." God, I do hope so.
With the adrenalized rush of the Whigs still ringing in my ears, I headed over to The Drinkery to catch the last two songs from Across Tundras. The Denver-to-Nashville trio works a Doom/Stoner/Psych/Metal angle with a Southern twist that has appeal and volume in equal measures. I realized that I had some wiggle room built into my schedule so I decided to stick around and check out some of All Them Witches, also from Nashville and also working a similar corner as Across Tundras. Although at face value, the two bands seem identical, I'd give the slight advantage to ATW, simply by virtue of their incredible sense of melodicism through the crystal clear volume. There were moments of black hole heaviness that referenced contemporary purveyors like Dead Meadow and Mastodon, but in a Stoner Metal heartbeat they'd crank out a run steeped in the pot/incense smokehouse of early Black Sabbath and Uriah Heep. Amazingly, as loud as it was in The Drinkery's long, narrow space — and I'm quite certain ATW was burying the needles on sound equipment down the street, registering the volume like a Richter monitor — it was never distorted or sludgy or painful, just sheets of pure, beautiful volume and emotion.
I ducked out of the end of All Them Witches to hit the Know Theatre for Rubblebucket. I had picked them to preview based on a couple of spins through their recently released fourth album Survival Sounds and its live presentation did not disappoint. This was clearly a much-anticipated show in the area; the Know staff was counting wristbands by the time I arrived to ensure they didn't go over room capacity on the second floor, and it filled up quickly. Rubblebucket's dancetronic Art Pop/Ska/Soul comes across well in recordings with plenty of nuance and subtlety, but on stage the band is unadulterated fun, downplaying some of the studio filigree while amplifying their core sound. Former boss/friend-for-life John Fox noted the band's resemblance to our own Walk the Moon, and they certainly offer that same brand of infectious Dance Pop, but there is a complexity in Rubblebucket's sonic recipe that pushes them into a singular and perfectly erratic orbit, a place where Bjork and The B-52s and Fishbone and Talking Heads form an orchestra and fashion Play Doh instruments, Bjork whips out some Icelandic volcano magic and transforms them into playable utensils and they translate signals from Voyager into universal Dance Pop.
Rubblebucket's complexity and oddballitry may never find favor in the mainstream, but it hardly matters. They have found the answer to any number of unasked questions and created a sound that everyone should hear at least once and that too many never will. The packed house at the Know on Friday night can revel in the secret knowledge that we have heard Rubblebucket, we get it and, like so many things in life, that will have to do.
I once again beat a reluctant retreat, leaving Rubblebucket before set's end to make my way down to Arnold's for the Jam/Roots splendor of Holy Ghost Tent Revival. When I turned the corner on 8th Street, I spied a small crowd bunched up at Arnold's front door and heard the most feared word in the MidPoint vocabulary: Capacity. In a rare moment of "fuck it," I strolled into Arnold's anyway (OK, it's not all that rare; I am my father's son, after all, and I suspect that I learned those two words first), and found that "capacity" was a malleable term. As I was chatting with the ubiquitous and ever welcome Wes Pence of The Ready Stance in Arnold's middle room, The Sundresses' Jeremy Springer, doing a typically bang up job in his role as server in the bar, inquired if my presence in the middle room and absence from the patio was a result of the capacity announcement. "Follow me," he said without hesitation, and planted me at the rear of the room as the band kicked off the last slot of the evening.
It was obvious that a good many people remembered the Revival's rambunctious appearance at MidPoint two years ago, or heard about it and wanted to experience it for themselves (I was in the latter camp). I get The Band/Flying Burrito Brothers references to HGTR's tangy, twangy sound, but there's so much more to it than simple Country revivalism. The horn driven sextet swings with the bristling energy of Squirrel Nut Zippers without the desire for that level of authenticity, while ratcheting up the Rock quotient to Phish-like levels of volume and instrumental proficiency. With those twin engines in place, Holy Ghost Tent Revival is aptly named; the band is passionately inspired and their songs are energetically executed with the soaring joy of the event in their name without any problematic or messy religious connotations. Allow the Revival into your consciousness for just a couple of songs and you'll be converted to their immaculate perception of Roots Rock, Stax Soul, horn-peppered Pop and adrenalized Indie Rock. The band, squeezed onto the narrow confines of Arnold's porch-like stage, blew through selections from their estimable catalog, concentrating on 2012's Sweat Like the Old Days and the just released and consistently excellent Right State of Mind, with both a sense of and a disregard for precision, making sure the feeling came across more than the chart. Come back to us soon, Holy Ghost Tent Revival, MidPoint or not; we are in need of slightly more regular baptisms.
• Washington Park was absolutely jammed with humanity for Wussy and the Afghan Whigs. Pike 27's Sean Rhiney and Dave Purcell, along with Dave's wife Amy, were there early for the Joseph Arthur experience, the Black Owls' Kip Roe was wandering the grounds with son Kip Jr. at about the same time and scene vet Jay Metz was working the Whigs' merch booth with typical entrepreneurial flair. Wes Pence was in attendance with his son Wyatt, who got an invitation from one of John Curley's daughters to sit on the stage and witness the Whigs' splendor up close. To be 11 and cute again. Well, to be 11 again … I just looked at my sixth grade picture.
• Local singer/songwriter Josh Eagle strolled in to witness the Wussy set; Josh is just one more reason why Cincinnati's music scene is unmatched for its talent and its sense of community. Also ran into my old CityBeat boss and mentor John Fox, to whom I literally owe, at least in part, my career and current life. It is an unpayable debt and I try to acknowledge it every time I see him so he understands his importance in my history. He was hanging for the night with his buddy Don; we had a nice chat on the lawn and he was kind enough to buy me the one early beer that I had allotted for myself each night of the festival. That story may unfold in this forum at some point; I've related it 50 times already this weekend to friends, acquaintances and complete strangers. Keep an ear out, you'll probably hear it secondhand before I tell it again.
• CityBeat's Mike Breen beamed in from the upper atmosphere for the Whigs extravaganza, so I'm two for two in the Breen spotting sweepstakes. I'm going for the hat trick on Saturday. The Owls' Brian Kitzmiller and Sohio's Mark Houk were also among the Whigsian throng, as were Paul, Big Jim and Stu: I learned from the shirt he was wearing that his given name is Stufest. Must be a passed-down-in-the-family thing. Great to see CityBeat theater critic Rick Pender, as well as CityBeat alum and local actor Rodger Pille and especially former Enquirer contributor and current MTV News hound Gil Kaufman. And I was introduced to a veritable platoon of additional people by some of the above, all of whom seemed like people I would like to have a picnic with anytime at all. I'm free next weekend, Brad and Amy.
• On the verge of heading back to the Main Street core, I turned just in time to see the unmistakable frame of stage manager guru Jacob Heintz strolling across the Washington Park grounds in the post-Whigs glow. Of course, Jacob's working every second of the festival, but he mentioned that things had gone so smoothly for the first two days that he was afraid to say it out loud for fear of screwing up whatever good MidPoint mojo was lingering in the atmosphere. It just ain't MidPoint until I've gotten some face time with Jacob.
• Once installed at The Drinkery, I was joined by CityBeat master blaster Dan Bockrath, who had arrived in order to soak up the sonic boom-and-doom of All Them Witches. Like everyone in the audience as near as I could tell, Dan was captivated by the concussive volume yet melodic heart of ATW, and when he returned from a trip to the bar, he handed me an unbidden yet desperately desired tonic water and lime. Although the Hall of Foam is sadly off line this MidPoint, Dan continues to be a much appreciated buyer of liquid refreshment, and that, at the end of the day, is all that truly matters. Thanks again and always, Sir Dan of MidPointdom.
• At Rubblebucket, I crossed paths once again with John Fox, his pal Don and the ever inscrutable Mike Breen. I have searched my aging brain device and not come up with a single memory of seeing Mike twice in one night, so that could stand as the record. If I don't see him Saturday night, I may consider the hat trick achieved (with an asterisk). My buddy Brad Gibson, frontman for the Saturn Batteries, was on his way down as I was coming up, so not sure if he decided to stay. Not long after the band fired up, Sir Dan strode in with purpose and took his place alongside us. And there it was, the entire history of the CityBeat braintrust. And me, of course.
• Other than Wes Pence, the unofficial mayor of MidPoint, I didn't spot anyone in the Holy Ghost Tent Revival crowd that I knew until Sir Dan came in not long after the band got cooking. If it was anyone else, I'd consider a restraining order, but I know Dan is just looking out for me, and we share similar taste in music. And when HGTR frontman Stephen Murray asked the assembled multitude how they knew about the show, Dan responded with a lusty and pride-filled "CityBeat, motherfucker!" When I suggested that might make a nice tagline for the masthead, he seemed to consider the idea, leading me to believe that maybe Dan was done for the night. As I was headed out the door, Wes was talking to a friend at that very nexus, so I hung for a second until they'd said good night, then prepared to do the same. We started to chat when a face appeared at Arnold's front door and gestured toward Wes. Apparently it was his ride home, so he handed me his double bourbon and said, "Do what you want with it, I just want it to go to a good home." And so, valiant soldier that I am, I sipped for five minutes, then drained it. It mellowed my shit out like right now. Thanks, Dr. Pence.
Great news, y'all! I made it through another MidPoint without getting raped or mugged. (Getting mugged might not be so bad, though. "No, officer, it was definitely not me who bought Duck Dynasty underwear at Walmart.") I know you were concerned for my safety.
I did MPMF quite a bit differently than I have in years past and I have to say, I think it contributed to it being the best one yet for me.
First, I forwent going with friends. I like my friends in small doses and on a couch talking about TV and girlfriends/boyfriends. Trying to coordinate concert plans with them, though, has always been an ordeal. Some of us are more hipster than others. Going it alone sometimes feels slightly sketchy, but mostly I think it helped my experience. I wasn't forced to stand in any hot, cram packed rooms to see bands I was less-than-thrilled to see.
Second, I decided to spend my entire Saturday night in just one venue. I did this for a few reasons: 1) Everyone I wanted to see was in that venue; 2) Cheap parking close-by. Therefore, I spent my Saturday night either pacing around outside the Taft Theatre or swaying back and forth inside the Taft's Ballroom.
And, ya know what? I had a damn good time.
The Taft is my favorite venue in town. Whether it's in the seated portion or down in the basement, it just has an amazing vibe. I love those bright white bulb-lights out front around the marquee. It makes the whole place sparkle. It just looks like you could pick it up and sit it in the middle of Gatsby's New York City. Downtown Cincy has plenty of art deco touches that I dearly love. However, nothing makes me feel more fancy and more ready for a special night than standing outside the Taft. In addition, the basement Ballroom, where all three of Saturday's bands performed, has this comfortable, almost sexy darkness to it. You could get into a little bit of trouble in some of those shadowed corners. I wouldn't judge you if you have. I might be disappointed you never invited me, though.
Bear's Den opened the night and, since I'd seen them recently, I didn't feel too bad when I spent the better part of their set outside on the phone. It gave me the chance to people watch, which is always a ton of fun at MidPoint. MPMF pulls in a jumbled assortment of people to tramp around downtown with their wristbands. I saw people my parents' age, dressed rather fancifully, chat with security and then slip down into the basement. I also saw an insane amount of frat guys, plus one very drunk Reds fan and his seriously concerned girlfriend. (I still don't know why she unleashed her concern to me. But I really hope she finds a new date for next year. Like, maybe someone who won't put her life in danger?) Oh! And I saw one seriously fabulous drag queen. (I appreciate your use of neon, girlfriend.)
Despite missing London's Bear's Den, I know they rocked. Not just because I've seen them and I love them, but because they still had a line of fans waiting to meet them when the final act went on at midnight. I think Cincinnati fell in love on Saturday. I'm giddy for Bear's Den and for Cincinnati. Good choice, my friends.
I caught Cincinnati's Bad Veins, though. Of course, I've seen them before, but I never mind the chance to see them again. Those two boys can make a ton of noise. Even with a few sound/mixing issues, they still managed to keep the room enthralled. That may have had something to do with Ben Davis' bellowing into the microphone or climbing to the top of the monitors. I have no musical talent whatsoever and my balance is minimal at best, but I was envious as he stood towering above me with his hands on the ceiling and an entire room of people staring up at him in awe. The Veins are a genuinely good band. Not "good for a local band," but good enough to root for them to keep gaining fans across the country.
Later, I watched Davis stand in the back of the room talking to a couple people for a surprisingly long time. They seemed to devour everything he said. He has dangerous levels of charisma. It was fun to watch.
As much as I love Bad Veins and Bear's Den, I'd spent all weekend eagerly awaiting Daughter's performance. I'm not sure why, but I didn't expect many people to show. I guess because I remember when "Daughter" was just Elena Tonra. I slinked my way pretty close to the stage and gaped at Tonra as she charmed the pants off everyone in the room. When it got stuffy a few songs in, I turned around and was speechless by the sheer amount of people that had suddenly come in behind me.
It makes sense, though. Jesus. Her voice is beautiful. If you were anywhere else in the city on Saturday night, you messed up. She sent heads to the shoulders of girlfriends and, shockingly enough, most cell phones managed to stay in purses and pockets. It's not that she wasn't worth capturing. It's that she was too captivating for anyone to have any other thoughts other than keeping their eyes glued to her face and their ears filled with her voice. Oh. The bow across the electric guitar was a great (albeit not very new) approach, too. It added a nice eerie feel to Tonra's already haunting voice.
As I left, I had big plans to reflect on the concerts and do a little pre-writing for this review while walking to my car. One of my favorite former co-workers waylaid me, though. So much for avoiding my friends. Cincinnati is too small for that. I didn't mind too much; I got all the dirt on who had left and who (sadly) was still around.
Eventually, I said goodbye to my ex co-worker, wandered away from Taft Theatre's bright lights and into the ever darkening street. As I meandered, it occurred to me just how much of a feat MPMF is for us. Cincinnati may be a city, but we're not a very big one. How do we manage to talk so many stellar bands into visiting us every year? How is it possible we have something as beautiful as the Taft? How do we produce such a bounty of awesome local bands?
My best friend likes to joke that Ohio has bred more astronauts than any other state. He says it's because Ohio is awful and space was as far away as they could get. However, I think we've bred so many astronauts for the same reason we've spawned bands like Walk the Moon and Bad Veins and all of the other great acts playing MPMF and for the same reason we put on such an great festival. We're small but mighty. We put our hearts into the things and the people we love. Even if they don't deserve it. (I'm lookin' at you, Bengals.)
A small, diverse crowd ranging from thirtysomething fans and overweight mosh-marchers to lanky, high school kids and excessively tattooed crust-punks packed into Covington's humid, poorly ventilated (yet ever-endearing) Mad Hatter on Tuesday night for an evening of average-to-fantastic Speed Punk and Hardcore.
Everything was easy — parking, finding venues, moving from place to place. Easy street. Even the weather was easy — not too hot, not too cold, not even crisp yet. Clouds just hung out in the sky, slightly alive, so gray. Steel.
When I literally jumped out of the car in front of SCPA, excited strange people started offering me donuts. I didn't take one, but I considered it. Fuck, that was stupid, I should have. Free damn donut. "Glazed!" they yelled, "Glazed!" Shout out to hot Dot, the lady in pink with the donut tray.
Welcome to the randomness that is sometimes called Midpoint. Bring it on.
If great reviews and the respect of your peers were tangible income, Warren Buffett would be paying 30% tax on his income as Alejandro Escovedo's secretary.
From the start of Escovedo's solo career — after a brief stint with the Kinman brothers in Rank and File and a turn in his own shoulda-been-huge True Believers in the '80s — the hypertalented singer/songwriter has been long on critical acclaim and short on commercial success for a variety of reasons (label and distribution trouble, no love at radio, health issues), but he has continued to grow and evolve as an artist to the delight and amazement of his cultishly proportioned and loyal fan base.
Escovedo's debut for Fantasy, Big Station, is the third in a de facto trilogy that began with 2008's Real Animal and continued on 2010's Street Songs of Love. Following those adrenalized-yet-sensitive rock albums/sonic scrapbooks, his first collaborations with fellow cult singer/songwriter Chuck Prophet and iconic producer Tony Visconti, Escovedo reassembles the dream team on Big Station, a set that rumbles with themes of home, love and a sense of place.
The album's first single, "Man of the World," bristles like Eddie Cochran shot through with a few thousand volts of Tom Petty; if there was any justice in the world, it would be pouring out of every car radio this summer. Like the best of Escovedo's catalog, Big Station offers electric muscle ("Party People"), acoustic power (the title track) and heartbursting balladry ("Bottom of the World"), all of which he paints with the perfect brush and touch.
Escovedo's exquisite gift is his ability to blend his Mexicali heritage with his unabashed love of '60s Rock, '70s Glam and Punk and '80s Twang Pop and twist it into a sound that is weirdly familiar and pointedly fresh. And like everything he's done, Big Station is his absolute best for now.
Lucky score — found a wicked parking spot on Court, and I wandered over to Below Zero for Brooklyn's Bear Hands. Standing in front of the bar's enormous red "Z" on the wall, singer Dylan Rau also played bass and keys. Backed by two guitars and drums, Rau's voice had a strong Post-Punk, New Wave edge that shone with the band's catchy, circular rhythm. He was charismatic, big-eyed, and easy on the eyes. There was a good reason that neon-heavy Below Zero became packed very quickly. This band was not one to miss, in my book. I wonder how Bear Hands felt about the disco balls inside? I bet there was some lovin' going on there.
Tonight at Over-the-Rhine's MOTR Pub, wildly impressive Cincy Soul/Pop/Rock quartet The Guitars celebrate the release of their new EP, High Action. Local Folk faves The Tillers open up the free show. Below is a review of the release, a slightly shorter version of which appeared in this week's CityBeat. You can also check out a track from the EP, so you can hear that I'm not lying when I say this is definitely one of the best releases by a local act this year.

Is The New Pepperjam Network Right For You?
You've probably seen quite a bit of coverage for the newly launched Pepperjam Network (PJN for short) a new affiliate /CPA network launched by Pepperjam, a full service internet marketing agency.
Will you bring your affiliate income to the next level by promoting PJN affiliate programs?
More on that shortly, but rather than repeat the information that other bloggers have highlighted, you can read write-ups and view videos at:
Having been an early tester for PJN since its beta stage, I've seen the fledgling network (with a great pedigree) go through its early development stages, but the questions for most affiliates is: Does it deliver on it's promise of an "Affiliate Marketing 2.0" network?
With about 100 merchants under its belt and have recruited a number of star Super Affiliates to promote its programs, Pepperjam will be focusing on building up its merchant and affiliate support and promotion efforts in the coming months. You can likewise expect to see an impressive booth at the Affiliate Summit West next month.
I've spoken to Pepperjam Affiliate Marketing Director Robyn Jones a number of times about the affiliate programs they've managed and you can see many of these programs, previously listed at Commission Junction and the other major networks now offered on PJN.
I have faced a number of issues with affiliate cookies not lodging correctly on some of the major networks (with sometimes less than enthusiastic support in pursuing these lost sales), and PJN's affiliated-focused approach means that you have a higher chance of ensuring that your marketing efforts are accurately compensated. (eg. less "lost" sales).
The panel to search for merchant programs and get affiliate links is similar to other tier-1 affiliate networks, as is the ability to tag Sub IDs to your links for better tracking.
I believe the design of the program has a lot to do with Pepperjam head honcho's experience as a PPC marketer and incorporates a number of PPC-friendly tracking and analytics features.
One of the interesting features of PJN is the ability to create a customized widget, known as pepperjamADS.
Smarter and more sophisticated affiliates will be able to select and rotate merchants and create a changing widget on their blogs or content sites.
Think of a more user-controlled Google adsense block on your sites, featuring merchants you select. The performance-based nature (pay-per-lead or pay-per-sale) of the payouts means your potential return on investment (ROI) will be at least 10 times higher than what you might expect from a comparable contextual pay-per-click advertising program.
Note: This payout is only going to give you these returns if you spend some time doing appropriate strategic marketing to match appropriate offers to your traffic profile, rather than the "fire-and-forget" nature of Google Adsense, AdBrite, Yahoo Search Marketing or other contextual type ads.
In my eyes, Pepperjam has been really strong in recruiting merchants in the lifestyle/fashion niche, such as fashion lines from Kimora Simmons (of BabyPhat Fashion/America's Next Top Model fame), Nelly, Beyone's Dereon and other lines.
If you're running a mass entertainment/lifestyle website, you'll have ample tools at your fingertips to monetize effectively.
What I'm interested in looking at will be the included and constantly evolving datafeed capabilites form the merchants. If you've worked with XML datafeeds, you'll know that they're not the easiest data to work with, unless you're using a script to process the data, or a service provider like Asif Malik's GoldenCan.
So it'll be interesting to see how smart affiliates are going to create shopping and catalog sites from the datafeeds.
Additionally, PJN has an education/resources area, for new affiliates.
This is a great idea and something I had mentioned would be useful to include some time back:
At the moment it's mainly outgoing links to blogs, forums and paid affiliate training (like Affiliate Classroom).
Over time, it'll be great to see some of the PJ team develop in-house training resources because I think the "software" training materials are probably just as important, if not more important than the "hardware" feed generators, widget code and analytics.
The Bottomline: Having a new affiliate network entrant always means more choice for affiliate marketers, and the test and mettle of the network will be proven as affiliates promote the programs and check that leads and sales are being tracked accurately.
Also with PJN entering the arena, it means that sales going through their system will go past adware detectors, like the ones built into Windows and third party adware software like Spybot and AdAware which have flagged tracking cookies from the major affiliate networks as "potential security threats".
If you are in a consumer-related niche, eg lifestyle, entertainment, fashion, you'd want to monetize your traffic more effectively with PJN's merchants as it's going to give you a higher ROI compared to contextually-targeted advertising systems.
If any, one grouse I have with Pepperjam's in-house affiliate recruiting system (to recruit sub-affiliates) is that it's a flat $5 payout per lead, unlike the typical 2% – 4% commission that a number of the other networks are paying out.
Granted it does go up to $7 per signup once you hit a high number of sub-affiliates, but it'll be nice to have a recurring overriding commission to provide an incentive to groom those you recruit.

We can't wait to have you as an active publisher in Pepperjam Network.
Your input and advise is highly valued by Pepperjam.
Also – thanks for plugging pepperjamADS – it just so happens that that is my favorite part of the Network – the idea of being able to create your own widget, whether it be a financial ads widget, fashion widget, or whatever, is awesome.
See you in Vegas in a few weeks!
your pal,
Great review Andrew. I will definitely check it out.
Andrew, do you know whether they accept international affiliates or no at the moment?
I have been using their widget for a while now and I love it. I just suggest to them that use viral marketing to really expand the widgets functionality. They could use which has been quite helpful for me in the past.
I've been with the Pepperjam Network since it's start and it's a great converting program.
One thing to note though, is that while getting code for banners and text links is simple, it's not quite the same for the product feeds which were only introduced recently. You get one CSV file with all of the code, which you then have to sort through. There's still some more work to do in this area, which I'm sure is being done as Robyn Jones is an excellent manager.
So far the PepperJam network is evolving nicely and I agree the majority are lifestyle type programs. Solid performers with unique products. The PJ stores created from feeds is a nice touch. However I have noticed some interruption in a few feeds and no alert etc to tell me thereis an issue or the feed has been discontinued.
Hello there, You've performed a great job. I'll certainly digg it and in my opinion recommend to my friends. I am sure they'll be benefited from this website.

A revised omnibus edition of the author's retelling of Arthurian legends. The first three sections of this book were originally published separately: The Sword in the Stone (1939), The Witch in the Wood (1939; here called "The Queen of Air and Darkness"), The Ill-Made Knight (1940), and the previously unpublished section, "The Candle in the Wind." The Book of Merlyn, written in 1941, was originally intended as the fifth and final book of the saga. It was first published by the University of Texas Press in 1977 and reissued by Berkley, 1978. It is the magical epic of King Arthur and his shining Camelot; of Merlin and Owl and Guinevere; of beasts who talk and men who fly, of wizardry and war. It is the book of all things lost and wonderful and sad. It is the fantasy masterpiece by which all others are judged.

Overnight stop to Sturgis.Posted Aug 9, 2015
Pros: Easy off Interstate access.
Cons: Update rooms (carpet, etc.)
Location: Right off interstate.
Stopped for the night on way to Sturgis. Booking online was easy and website had good discount. No problem with check-in. Room was clean but dated. Hot water was hot, cold water was cold. Breakfast area was small but had nice room across hall for overflow. Nice big parking area for all the motorcycles and trailers.

late night check inPosted Jul 11, 2015 on Hotels
I am very thankful for the person that was at the desk because we arrived very late at 2am and we found that the room we had reserved was not to our liking the night clerk promptly and very kindly provided us with a different room. In the morning the other clerk was also very kind and helpful in the breakfast area and with checkout.

Worst hotel stay in my life!Posted Jun 18, 2015 on Hotels
The shower was almost unusable, the shower head was chest high and the pressure was high enough to remove skin! The shower curtain rod was falling off the wall. The toilet bowl was dirty. The room was not serviced two days in a row!

Extremely clean and the host was terrific.

Posted Jun 15, 2015
Pros: It was handy to where we were visiting, and as I said the bathroom was clean. Also the breakfast was adequate.
Cons: Better beds, a little tidier, the dresser had dust that wasn't just there for a day, had not been dusted in weeks.
Location: As I said it was handy to those we were visiting. We went to a banquet in Logan, not there to sight see or to visit any attractions.
Bed very uncomfortable, the dresser had not been dusted. I will say bathroom was clean. The help seemed confused as to how long we would be there, and towels and bedding not changed, bed not made. Needed more towels.

Barely a "2 Star"Posted Jun 14, 2015
Pros: Coffee in the Lobby Lounge
Cons: Plumbing, Linens, housekeeping didn't touch the toilet.
You get what you pay for normally but this was priced relatively high, even for a 2 star, compared to the faclities. Very slow drainage in sinks. Uncomfortable bedding; one pillow like air and the other (only 2) hard as a rock. Only 1/2 of a duplex outlet not being used and that was no where near a table/nightstand. You had better take along a powerstrip. No desk; only a single table and side chair in a dark corner. I recommend this place ONLY as a "last resort"; otherwise consider making the commute to Omaha or Council Bluffs.

Si Señor Art TaqueriaMay 6Tacos • Melbourne, Australia
The tacos are great. So is everything else. A true gem of a restaurant.
The tacos are great. So is everything else. A true gem of a restaurant.
Fish taco, chipotle chips and horchata are great.
Amazing pizza. So fresh and tasty. Highly recommend the herb and garlic and the Belle Rose pizzas.
Simply awesome. We got all the starters and they're all excellent. I've had the Spartan burger and loved it - my friends assure me the other burgers are great too. Recommend wholeheartedly.
One of few ranges in the area with fully automatic rental rifles. Expensive, but fun as hell. Probably worth it.
The Red Snapper (the original Bloody Mary) is extremely tasty, quite spicy but not overly so. Also goes great with the tuna if you're looking for a snack.
Arctic char for main and applie pie for dessert. Both sublime.
Great eggs benny. The GAS breakkie is also rather scrumptious. Coffee can be very hit/miss.
The coffee and the smoothies are good, but the egg and bacon roll with hash browns is the best in Melbourne.
Awesome chef, delicious food. Would especially recommend the oysters with crisp bacon and balsamic reduction & any of the beef cuts, medium-rare.
The club sandwich here is fairly terrible. If you want a good one, head to Cafe Metropol on the other side of the Limmat. Its almost legendary.
Grab the tuna tartar as a starter and the shrimp fried rice as a main.
If you want, you can just give your servers a price point and they will put a menu together for you. They did a good job for us, anyways.
If you're in NYC, go pay your respects. Its the least any of us can do.
The huge water fountain in the lobby is a mixed blessing. Looks sweet, but the entire place smells of chlorine.
Very close to the DC Convention Center so if there's a conference on, this place will probably be pretty pumping at night.
There's an underground passage that connects to the US Capitol Visitors Center, its much faster than taking the sidewalk outside.
Big fan of the salmon fillet, not so much of the tuna tartar. Too sweet and too chunky, skip it.
