Remember Me
JAMBASE: Let's stay on that for a moment. I remember around 2010, 2011
American Babies shows were
very song-based, and you were just starting to introduce some of the jamming element. So
with what you're saying, it
seems like it was a gradual move toward the more improv-inclined band it is now.
TH: This band, you know, really started as a reaction. It was a reaction
to what I
saw in the scene in 2007 and
2008. The jamband scene, I don't know, it just felt so fucking diluted. It was a bunch of
dudes not writing any music,
but saying, hey bro, I got a laptop and a van and a Click Track, and we're going to go out
and play this lowest common
denominator electronic bullshit.
It was hard watching that because the Brothers Past guys and I sat in a basement for years
really spending time making
that sound and trying to get it right, and so many of these bands sounded like shitty
versions of us or other bands that
had been trying to work on that sound. Imitation is a big form of flattery, sure, but it
just didn't feel right. I didn't want
to be part of that or be the asshole that was telling them it sucked.
So I think it was a reaction. The Dead came from songs – the whole Dead thing came from
songs. I started writing, and
you know, all the stuff on the first Babies record, I was writing for Brothers Past
originally. We didn't see eye-to-eye
necessarily on what those songs should be like and the feedback I got was, well, hey, if
you want to play that stuff it
should be with another thing.
But now it makes sense again. I love to improvise. It's freedom, and when you're on that
stage doing it, nothing else
matters. That stage, that piece of real estate – it's ours, it's our space, it's our time
to do whatever the fuck we want.
And I just think it would be a shame to play album-faithful versions of the same songs
every night. How am I going to
conjure up the same emotions night after night for a song I wrote three years ago? It's
almost insincere to play in the
same. I want the version of the song we played in Boise on Wednesday or whatever it is to
be that version of the song.
You know what I mean? Let's go in and play it that way, that night.
JAMBASE: Do you think the scene has shifted back toward song-based
jamming? There
do seem to be more
younger jambands in the last few years that have embraced it, particularly Americana and
roots bands.
TH: I'd like to think so. I don't pay that much attention to what's going
on in the
scene and I don't know a lot
of the younger bands now, but there's a band from the northeast a lot of people are
talking about. Twiddle? I don't
know much about them, but I saw a minute of them at something we were at and it was
definitely not electronic and it
was definitely not just four dudes trying to play house music poorly. They had songs, they
had some rock 'n' roll to
what they were doing, and I was like, OK, cool, and kids we're fucking loving it. So
that's good to see.
And I don't know if it's that so much as I just got sick of hearing younger bands worrying
about wobble bass and what
they're taking from dubstep and all that. And hey man, whatever. I love electronic music:
smart, good, electronic music,
not just the stuff where any jerkoff can do it.
JAMBASE: You talked about the thrill of improvisation and you collaborate
with a
lot of musicians. Tell me a
favorite sit-in story or jamming story from the past year.
TH: I'll go with Jam Cruise here. Brock Butler was not able to get to Jam
and they had this slot open for
him and they asked me, hey man, do you want the set? And I asked about the stage, but I
didn't just want it me playing
my songs. I wouldn't want to watch just me and my guitar, you know? [laughs]
So I took the set but I was asking around to see who was available and if we could get
together to do a thing. I was able
to wrangle Magner, Steve and John Kimock, and George Porter Jr. And dude, fuck, was that
fun. Porter, man. I did an
acoustic set some years ago opening for 7 Walkers, and they did "Sugaree" and George sang
and I remember, it blew my
fucking mind, man. It was a gospel song the way he sang it – it was amazing. So I knew
he'd play Dead tunes and would
know that stuff, and obviously Kimock knows all that shit, and me and Magner have been
playing Dead tunes together
for a long time, so we were like, let's see if we can get Porter to come up and do this.
We put the word out and we didn't know if he was going to show, and then he arrived and he
was like, hey guys, so
what are we gonna play? And I told him about "Sugaree" and seeing him do that with Billy
Kreutzmann and all that. And he
smiled and he was like, OK, count it off.
It was a ridiculous set. We crushed it. It was a long "Sugaree," like 20 minutes. And then
he was like, let's do another one.
And I said, what do you want to play, and he says, "Lovelight," go! And he's just fucking
going and killing it and we're all
just trying to keep up. I remember looking across the stage, and Magner's looking at me
and we have this look like,
what the fuck are we doing right now?
JAMBASE: That's Porter's reputation though, right? He just loves to play.
TH: Yeah, and let me talk about that. I'm from Philly – we're a blue-
collar town,
and all the musicians I know
here work their dicks off and have no airs about it, and I mean everyone from Questlove to
the Dr. Dog guys. The best
musicians in this town are insane workaholics. There's no vibe of entitlement like you
find with a lot of people in New
York. I lived in New York briefly and I got disheartened running into people, usually in
their late 20s or early 30s, who
just had that vibe.
I mean, you see a guy like fucking George Porter who's almost 70. That motherfucker just
loves to play. He's like, hey
man, I get to play music, that's what I do. There's no jadedness or taking anything for
granted. It was the real deal with
him. That's perfect and how it should be. I don't ever want to be a jaded asshole that's
pissed because something's
wrong in my tour rider or something. None of that shit matters. If your eye isn't on the
prize – music – it's not worth it.

SkillSurvey Builds Momentum withThe Q®, its Growing Talent Portal
Candidates are now applying for jobs through the Q®
Wayne, PA – January 30, 2014 SkillSurvey®, the inventor of an online Pre-Hire 360® Reference Assessment platform for human resource leaders, today announced that applicants have applied for thousands of job openings in The Q®. The Q®, which uniquely taps an applicant's job references as potential job candidates themselves, launched less than one year ago. The Q®'s invitation-only network brings recruiters a highly-targeted, new source of job candidates that grows on its own.
The Q® is highly effective at pulling in passive job seekers, supporting what internationally known HR thought-leader Dr. John Sullivan recently said in his ere.net article "…is an unabated corporate goal of targeting and recruiting those top prospects who are not in job search mode."
"We launched The Q® on the simple premise that job references are likely to be the right matches for future positions," said Ray Bixler, president and chief executive officer of SkillSurvey. "Our customers agreed, and since launching the new portal they've rapidly embraced this new resource for finding quality candidates, including passive job seekers. Equally important is the reception from applicants themselves, who are now using the platform as their secret weapon for finding highly coveted openings. It's a win-win for businesses and candidates alike."
The Q® enables recruiters to build a growing, but proprietary pool of highly qualified candidates – many of whom are passive job seekers who will be unknown to other recruiters – who have opted in to learn more about relevant job openings. A candidate is automatically invited to join as he/she is in the process of providing candidate feedback through SkillSurvey's Pre-Hire 360® assessment solution. After becoming a member of The Q®, candidates create a professional profile to share with recruiters and they gain access to the portal where they can directly view and apply for open positions.
Once in the system, these new candidates – people who have already demonstrated complementary experience and expressed interest – are now part of a growing pool of applicants that recruiters can tap for openings. This saves hours often spent sourcing unqualified or uninterested candidates across open social networks, accelerates time to hire and dramatically improves candidate quality and mutual fit. Recruiters can use personalized dashboards to find and reach candidates best suited for new openings.
To learn more about The Q®, visit Skillsurvey® at www.IntoTheQ.com.
About SkillSurvey®, Inc.
SkillSurvey®'s predictive talent analytics software makes it easy to collect and analyze job performance data that lead to better hiring decisions. SkillSurvey® is the inventor of online Pre-Hire 360® Reference Assessments. The Pre-Hire 360® assessment platform automates the process of collecting and analyzing job-specific surveys from each candidate's past employers, peers and direct reports. The Q®, its social talent platform, allows recruiters and hiring managers to collect feedback and source talent by turning references into candidates. This patent-pending approach to reference assessments is based on science and 30 years of research in job competency modeling. SkillSurvey® was named one of the fastest-growing companies in America by Inc. magazine, and was named a Deloitte Technology Fast 500 firm. Visit SkillSurvey® at www.skillsurvey.com, and on and .

I have owned and managed luxury oceanfront vacation homes in the Ponte Vedra - St. Augustine area of Florida since 1978. I bought my first ocean front home in 1976 and started renting it to help with the mortgage. (At the time, I was a university professor and mental health therapist with a family and many other commitments, but I loved houses, decorating, and working with interesting renters). Time passed and I bought or built other homes, and with the Internet, my little business grew. My son David Lombana joined me several years ago and we now have 10 wonderful oceanfront homes to manage. I have always catered to people who expect quality over price and you will find no other homes here that match our standards. All our properties are direct oceanfront, spotless, and filled with quality and comfortable furnishings. Most have panoramic ocean views, some have elevators and/or hot tubs, one has a private pool, and all have wonderful decks over looking a quiet, wide, car-free beach. You will love them!

Great beach, great views, close to great site seeing & dinning.
The place was ready for us when we arrive, other then food we didn't have to purchase anything for our stay. Everything was supplied.
If we ever visit St Augustine agin, we will be sure to book this property.

It's simple, and free.
But the very brief text does not, in other ways, bear extensive similarity to the Biblical account. The "destruction" of the human race is the purpose given by the God who caused the flood but there is no trace of a reason given for this destruction--though there is a clear indication by the god who speaks that he wishes humanity to make a new start in their worship of the gods (Handcock 20). The storm is said to rage "for seven days, for seven nights" and the principal figure, Ziusudu, emerges from a closed boat and offers sacrifices to the gods (Handcock 21). The importance of the existence of the Nippur tablet is that it demonstrates that the flood account preceded by centuries the composition of the Gilgamesh epic. The tendency of oral traditions to circulate for many centuries prior to being preserved in written form demonstrates the flexibility that must be maintained when judging the age of stories in middle-eastern literature, especially when looking at them in terms of influence.
The historical Gilgamesh, for example, was a Babylonian king who lived c. 2700 B. C. The legends surrounding him grew over the centuries into a Sumerian tradition which was later "utilized by the Babylonian Semites in the production of their great national epic" (Heidel 14). The legends of Gilgamesh were probably first compiled around 2000 B. C., as internal evidence related to the names of the deities indicates. But, since the tablets by which we know the epic date only to the seventh century B. C. it is clear that the various episodes, including the flood story, "did not spring into existence at the time of our poem but must have been current long before they were compiled and woven together to form out epic" (Heidel 15).
The Gilgamesh epic as it is known today was discovered by archaeologists on twelve large tablets in Nineveh, the later capital of the Assyrian empire, in the ruins of a temple library and the palace library of Ashurba...

Photos of Leonardo DiCaprio Leaving Cinema For Peace Dinner, at Charity Gala
Leonardo DiCaprio Has a Rewarding Party For Peace
Like us on Facebook
Leonardo DiCaprio stopped by a dinner party in Berlin last night before attending to the Cinema for Peace charity gala today, where he received an award for his work on The 11th Hour. The actor has always been environmentally conscious, although he's also got other things on his mind. He supposedly was rooting for Bar Refaeli to be on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue in order to upset his ex Gisele Bundchen and rumor has it he got his way. The cover will be officially revealed on Letterman tonight, but something tells us both supermodels and Leo are over any petty rivalry.

Freeze baked or uncooked
To freeze, wrap in cling film and pack into a container to stop the pasties from getting crushed, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the fridge if already cooked, or bake from frozen as directed, adding 10 mins extra baking time.
- To make the pastry, rub the butter, lard and 1 tsp salt into the flour with your fingertips, or mix in a food processor. Blend in 8 tbsp cold water to make a firm dough. Cut into 8, cover with cling film and chill for 20 mins.
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Mix together the beef, onions, potatoes, swede, 1 tbsp black pepper and 1 tsp salt. Roll out each piece of dough on a lightly floured surface to make a round about 20cm across. Use a plate or base of a cake tin to trim the shape.
- Pack an eighth of the beef mixture down the centre of each pastry round, leaving a margin at each end, then top with a good spoonful of pickle. Brush all round the edges of the pastry with some of the beaten egg, then carefully draw up the pastry on each side so that it meets at the top, and pinch together to seal.
- Lift the pasties onto 2 non-stick baking sheets, brush with egg and bake for 10 mins. Then reduce oven to 180C/ 160C fan/gas 4 and bake for a further 45-55 mins until golden.

Former Oklahoman composes a soundtrack for Middle-earth
J.R.R. Tolkien fans know the magic of Middle-earth is in the details.
No one is more familiar with those details than Utah composer Chance Thomas, who grew up in Oklahoma City.
Since 1998, Thomas has composed scores for 10 computer and video games (three unreleased) based on Tolkien's "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
"Tolkien had spent a lot of time thinking about the way his world sounded," Thomas said in a recent phone interview. "He spends a lot of ink describing musical instruments the various races use, the songs that were sung, the various emotions that were conjured up by the music and the lyrics.
"I wanted to become expert on how music in Middle-earth is supposed to sound based on the literature and intelligent inferences I could make based on that information. Thus began a multiyear project of pulling out, understanding and collating every sound and musical note."
He collected his notes in his "Tolkien Music Sound Guide" and has used them as the basis of his scores ever since.
His scores are featured in several video game titles, including a few that borrow their names directly from Tolkien. They include "The Hobbit," "The Fellowship of the Ring," "The Two Towers," "War of the Ring" and three "Lord of the Rings Online" games. The most recent, subtitled "Riders of Rohan," was released last year to acclaim from critics and gamers.
The Rohan soundtrack is available on iTunes, Amazon and Spotify.
Thomas' connection to gaming began in 1996. Several years earlier, Thomas had graduated from Brigham Young University in Utah; he and his wife became paid entertainers on cruise ships sailing through the Caribbean.
By the early 1990s, though, Thomas was back on dry land. He opened a music production company in Salt Lake City. Then a friend told him that Sierra Online, then a big player in the computer gaming industry, had an opening for a composer.
At first he wasn't interested. He hadn't paid attention to the increasing sophistication of video games, which had come a long way since Pac-Man. When he played some recent games with his friend, though, he was impressed.
He applied for the Sierra job, auditioned and was hired to compose music for "Quest for Glory 5," the latest in a series of popular games combining the action and role playing genres. Things went well, and in 1998, he was given the task of composing music for a proposed massive multiplayer game called "J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth."
That's when Thomas began compiling his Tolkien sound guide.
Although that game was ill-fated (within a year Sierra underwent a massive reorganization), it brought Thomas into the Tolkien fold. As years passed, more titles went into development, and some made their way into production.
In 2003, Thomas was charged with developing themes for all the major races in Tolkien's world: humans, dwarves, hobbits, elves and the beastly forces of Sauron.
He also signed on with Vivendi-Universal Games as the company's Tolkien franchise music director.
Those themes recur in subsequent games, much as elements of movie soundtracks are carried over into sequels.
Interestingly, Thomas prefers not to compose at the piano.
"The best music comes together in the workshop of my mind first," he said. "I'll imagine myself in a situation, for example if I'm being asked to compose for a steamy, tropical, beautiful alien world. I'll go there in my imagination. What does it feel like to be there? When I imagine it vividly enough, I start to hear music coming together."
Thomas is justifiably proud of his Tolkien scores, although he knows he isn't the most famous Tolkien composer out there. More people are familiar with the work of Howard Shore, who won three Oscars for his scores for Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" films.
Their music has much in common.
When he teaches master classes at colleges and universities, Thomas said, he shows students an image from a Tolkien video game, then asks them what the music for that image should sound like. The students call out suggestions, and he writes them on a whiteboard.
"Then I'll say, 'Something like this?'" he said. "I push a button and my music starts playing, and 99 percent of the time it sounds like the things they said on the whiteboard.
"The conclusion we inevitably come to is that music is a language and that dramatic music for ... digital entertainment is a pretty well-developed language. It's not surprising when you listen to how I scored The Shire before the 'Lord of the Rings' films ever came out, and you listen to Shore's version, they're different flavors of The Shire, but they're both recognizable. ... We're both experienced communicators in the field of dramatic music.
"As you listen to them (the scores), you can easily envision the 'Lord of the Rings' universe because of the way it makes you feel and fires up your imagination."
Thomas' work is far from over. The latest "Lord of the Rings Online" game takes Tolkien's saga as far as Rohan, but there are many miles to go — and many more games to produce — before Tolkien's heroes make their way to Mordor for the final battle.
Thomas is in no hurry.
"I'm a casual gamer," he said. "The most fun I have is when I'm working on a game."

Large Ocean-View Stateroom (E): Ryndam Cabin Reviews
Ryndam Cabin Categories
We prefer being on the promenade deck, for easy access to the walking deck. This room was far enough from the stairs/elevators to be quiet, very close to a deck exit/entry (but not too close), and also close to the self-service laundry (a plus on a 30-day cruise). Other than that, it is a standard ocean view room.

Ryndam is a gem lilybayI traveled solo for the first time on a cruise ship. My cabin was more than comfortable. There was tons of storage and everything worked well. I was in cabin 691 which is all the aft on the main deck. I loved that I was able to climb the little stairs straight up to the promenade. I could get outside quickly in this manner and I often used it to get to and from my cabin without walking the long corridors inside. The only problem with this room happened twice in the middle of the night. A metal door was banging just on the other side of the wall aft of my cabin and it took them a while to 1. believe me, and 2. fix it. This meant a sleepless night as it would start banging again about two hours after they said they had fixed it for sure. The second night this happened they fixed it much more quickly. Next time I will seek a room that is at least one room away form a working deck. They gave me a book on appetizers as an apology. I would have rather a ships credit or night at the Pinnacle.

Not What I Expected jr8934Deck A, right above the boiler room (?). The door next us said crew only. We were at the extreme end of the hallway aft. VERY NOISY, especially when the anchor was being lowered. Small room. The weather made for a rocky trip and our beds, and us, were shaking with the movement. We were glad when the motion settled down.

Ryndam Entertainment the Best ....... sidoswegoI was in cabin E675 on the Ryndam. It was a full window ocean view ( not a port hole). Room was kept very clean, always had ice in bucket. No fridge. Had to order one for $2/day. Very quiet room. Queen bed. A lot of closet space. Shower and tub combo.

Fjord and Arctic adventure on the Ryndam! StartrainDDOur cabin was in a very convenient location, near the "Largest verandah." However, being under part of the galley we heard noises from above and also from the promenade deck outside. The rocking of the ship and perhaps the Arctic air may have offset the noise affect as it seemed we slept well for the most part.

Lately I've noticed that Sonny has been a little less responsive to me telling him to do stuff when ride. Mainly stopping (which is the worst thing for me haha), but on turning and getting back to the wall also.
I've been working on collection with him, but I haven't been harsh on his mouth as to make him that way....at least I don't think I've been. I'll milk his reins (gently moving on then the other) and he'll collect himself...then I'll give him a loose rein, but the second he looses the collection, I milk the reins again.
Yesterday during lessons we were working on transitions. Going from a walk, to a sit trot, to a canter, then to a post trot, then to a sit trot, then to a stop. All went alright, but the minute I asked for a canter, Sonny sped up into an extended trot (he didn't canter) and as I tried to slow him down he'd extend his head and wouldn't slow down. I had to turn him in two really tight circles, then lead him into a wall for him to stop (we didn't hit the wall, but he sure came close).
The reason though I think it's an attitude is that he's TOTALLY sensitive when I ask him to back up or to leg yield. I'll just put a little pressure and he'll side-step or back up.
I think he's just being a brat....but what do you all think?

What is Conference?
Liberal Democrat Conference is a twice-yearly event where members gather to put forward, debate and vote on the Party's national policies. There are keynote speeches from the Leader, MPs and other senior figures, and Party committees present their annual reports to the membership. Beyond the main Conference hall, there's a wide range of training on campaigning, fundraising, recruitment, plus advice sessions for those interested in being candidates for councils and Parliament. At lunchtimes and in the evenings there are plenty of fringe meetings with a chance to discuss ideas with speakers from party groups and national organisations. There are receptions, a disco, and even a singalong night, and there's always a large crowd in the Conference bar at the end of the day.
