Lollapalooza 2015 photos: Toyota Tent shows w/ White Sea (Morgan from M83), Twin Peaks, Albert Hammond Jr. & more
photos by Jesse Lirola & Matthew Reeves
White Sea (M83's Morgan Kibby) / Twin Peaks / Albert Hammond Jr.
Even if you don't know Kibby (or White Sea) by name, you might recognize her sound. She's the voice behind Big Data's recent single "The Business of Emotion," she sang and played keyboard with M83 since 2008's "Saturdays=Youth" and she co-wrote hits like "Midnight City" for the French electronic music group.Lollapalooza 2015 happened during the final weekend of July in Chicago's Grant Park. We already posted three days worth of photos (Friday, Saturday and Sunday), and those posts included a couple shots of BrooklynVegan host and DJ Billy Jones interviewing Albert Hammond Jr on Sunday, but most of the Toyota Tent action was left out. BrooklynVegan co-presented/curated the tent, much like we're doing again this weekend at Outside Lands, and so naturally we also have this final set of pictures from that action.
"I think there are some musicians who figure out very early on who they are," she said. "I was not such a lucky writer and producer. Over the last 10 years, it's been a discovery." [Chicago Tribune]
Our potion of the Toyota Tent's schedule included live sets by by Morgan Kibby of M83's band White Sea, Twin Peaks, rapper Pell, Gogol Bordello, Of Monsters and Men, Lion Babe (who are on the new Disclosure album), and more. Pictures from all of it, some portraits included, continue below...

Lollapalooza 2015 day 3 pics: Florence, A$AP Rocky, TVOTR, Gogol Bordello, Albert Hammond Jr, Twin Peaks & more
photos by James Richards IV
Florence / A$AP Rocky / TVOTR / Albert Hammond Jr + Billy Jones
A$AP Rocky pauses to watch the sight of a person in a wheelchair crowd surfing. Ordinarily, hip-hop shows don't spawn mosh pits but then again, most don't blare both House of Pain's "Jump Around" and Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" over the speakers in succession. For A$AP, yes, it's that easy, and lest anyone forgets, the initials to his name get shouted out by his trio of hype men with regular frequency. To his credit, A$AP doesn't entirely coast. He establishes and maintains a crazed level of energy for a majority of the set and treats it all as a giant party. On Sunday night, with the prospect of heading back to work fans (well, the small percentage over 18, anyway) in the face, it's the appropriate atmosphere and vibe. A$AP boasts a lyrical flow most peers would envy, and his entourage scatters like ants to the very front rows on the ground to pump up the crowd. There's even room for a compelling avante R&B turn in the form of "L.$.D." Self-promotional references, tributes to weed, descriptions of loose women and homages to money spill from the emcee's mouth. So do shout-outs to Chief Keef and Chance the Rapper. Yet it's local boy Vic Mensa who scores the guest spot for a duet on "U Mad," putting the punctuation mark on a booming celebration of modern hip-hop culture that, in spite of positive messages prouncing unity, still include clicking gun-chamber sound effects. - [Chicago Tribune]Threat of severe weather (thunderstorms, hail) caused Grant Park to be evacuated briefly during the final day of Lollapalooza 2015 (8/2) and also had the fest end 30 minutes early. (This happened at Pitchfork too this year, and at Lolla in 2012.) Otherwise, the show went on with sets from Florence + the Machine, A$AP Rocky, TV on the Radio, Albert Hammond Jr. (who started his day in the Toyota Tent for a Q&A with BrooklynVegan correspondent Billy Jones), Of Monsters and Men, Twin Peaks, Gogol Bordello, and many more.
Pictures of Lollapalooza 2015 day 1 are HERE and day 2 are HERE. More pics from day 3 are below...

ZZ Top / The Wu-Tang Clan / Jim James / green girl @ Bonnaroo 6/14/2013
Depsite a couple cancelations (Mumford, Earl Sweatshirt), Bonnaroo 2013 had more than enough starpower to keep the masses entertained throughout the 2013 edition which happened over the weekend. Friday (6/14) featured one of the most famous musicians in the world, Paul McCartney, plus sets from ZZ Top, The Wu-Tang Clan, Wilco, Of Monsters and Men, Passion Pit, Jim James, Grizzly Bear, The xx, Big K.R.I.T. and loads more. Pictures of day 2 are in this post.
We missed Animal Collective (they went on at 2 AM), but you can check out a video of Police Academy's human sound fx machine Michael Winslow joining them on stage below. Besides the main attractions, there were other cool things too, including Johnny Fritz (aka Johnny Corndawg) on the smaller Sonic stage, comedy throughout the day, and the big hip hop superjam with Schoolboy Q, RZA, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Solange, and more.
Pictures from Day 1 are HERE with more on the way. More pictures from Friday below...

Half Moon Run @ Stubb's in Austin on Monday (more by Sarah Frankie Linder)
As mentioned, Montreal's Half Moon Run will be in town this week for two headlining NYC shows: Glasslands on Friday (6/7) with Young Unknows (tickets) and Mercury Lounge on Monday (6/10) with Oceanographer (tickets). Both are much, much smaller venues than most of dates they've had on their current North American tour which has been spent opening for Glassnote labelmates Mumford & Sons and Of Monsters and Men (who play Governors Ball on Friday). Their tour with that Icelandic band hit Austin earlier this week (6/3) and you can check out a full set of pictures from that at BV Austin.
Half Moon Run's 2012 debut album, Dark Eyes, is being re-released on Glassnote July 23, with a bit of a spit-shine from Spoon cohort Jim Eno and a few tracks being swapped out. You can stream one of the new tracks from it, "Unofferable," below and download it from HMR's bandcamp.
All upcoming Half Moon Run tour dates are listed below...

Deerhunter at Austin Psych Fest 2013 (more by Tim Griffin)
Governors Ball is less than a month away, and the fest has now released the daily schedule. They've done a pretty good job with not too many giant conflicts -- though there's a few like Grizzly Bear vs Beirut, Bloc Party vs The xx, Erykah Badu vs Beach House, and Nas vs Guns N Roses. Check out the daily line-ups across their four stages below.
Vampire Weekend add dates, playing SNL (w/ Kristen Wiig) ++ more Buscemi videos (one with Grimes!); Roseland livestream @ Brooklyn Bowl
We're only a couple weeks out from Vampire Weekend's third album, Modern Vampires of the City, which hits retailers digital and physical on May 14. Look for the band, who just played Coachella, to preview tracks from the album at their sold-out show on Sunday (4/28) at Roseland Ballroom which is being broadcast live on the internet as part of the American Express Unstaged Performance series. The webcast, which is being directed by Steve Buscemi, starts at 9 PM EDT.
For those in NYC who would like to make the webcast experience a little more concert-like, Brooklyn Bowl, with help from the Tribeca Film Festival (which concludes on Sunday), will be showing it live on their many giant HD screens with "full concert sound." It's free entry.
Speaking of bowling, Vampire Weekend and Steve Buscemi, the band and Boardwalk Empire star are continuing to play out their friendship on the web with a second installment of the "documentary" about prepping for the Roseland show, which ends up at Brooklyn's Melody Lanes. There's also other episodes -- one with Grimes -- and you can watch them all below.
And last but not least, Vampire Weekend will appear on the May 11 episode of Saturday Night Live which is hosted by former castmember Kristen Wiig. So get ready for affable indie rock and the probable return of Gilly. Kanye West and Ben Afleck will apear on SNL's 38th Season Finale on May 18, and next weekend (May 4) it's Zach Galifianakis and Of Monsters and Men.
All upcoming Vampire Weekend tour dates (there are some new ones including Hollywood Bowl with Beirut, not NYC) are listed, along with the bowling video, below...

Miguel on 'SNL' / Daft Punk w/ Pharrell & Nile Rogers
Another new SNL, another new Daft Punk commercial. This one -- a slightly shorter version of the one shown to Coachella audiences -- gives us the first substantial taste of Random Access Memories' "Get Lucky," that's been teased in previous ads, and features both Pharrel Williams and and some chic guitarwork from Nile Rodgers, not to mention the men/robots themselves. This is, we assume, a snippet of the "Get Lucky" video? You can watch it below.
Meanwhile, Daft Punk have released the third in their "Collaborators" series of promotional videos with the folks who worked on Random Access Memories. This one is with Nile Rodgers who very humbly talks about his contribution to dance music over the years and you can watch that below too.
Meanwhile, on the actual show (4/13), Miguel performed his Grammy-winning hit "Adorn" and then a rocked-out version of "How Many Drinks," with that magnetism (that we saw at our BV CMJ day party last year) on full display. The next new SNL is May 4 with Of Monsters and Men performing, while Zach Galifianakis hosts. Miguel videos from last night are below.

Half Moon Run @ BVSXSW 2013
Montreal's Half Moon Run have played BV SXSW day parties the last two years, playing our Friday show this year and pictures from their set are in this post. The band's debut album, Dark Eyes, is getting reissued in America on Glassnote (home of Phoenix, CHVRCHES and more) which should bring their harmony-laden songs to a lot more ears. You can stream it below.
Meanwhile, the band are going out on tour with their new labelmates Mumford & Sons this summer, as well as dates with Of Monsters and Men. Amongst these big, big shows Half Moon Run will play two headlining club dates in NYC: June 7 at Glasslands and June 10 at Mercury Lounge.

The National (band & documentary) playing Tribeca Film Fest, headlining Boston Calling Music Festival
A still from 'Mistaken for Strangers'
The National, who'll headline the Barclays Center in June, are the subject of a new tour documentary, Mistaken for Strangers, which will make its premiere at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival (April 17 - 28). The film was directed by Tom Berninger, whose brother Matt is lead singer of The National. Here's the synopsis:
Adrift in life and fuelled by the desire to create, Tom Berninger accepts his brother's offer to come on The National tour as a roadie and decides to chronicle his experiences with the band. Although Tom starts off with dreams of making a rock documentary (you can watch the portaits he made on each of the band members), a different story emerges as tensions among the band members lead to unforeseen drama. Following the band from Berlin to Paris to Los Angeles to a 2010 Obama rally in Madison, Wisconsin, Mistaken for Strangers is not your typical road documentary.The film will screen on April 17 and will be followed by a special live performance by The National.
Festival packages go on sale to AmEx cardholders on Monday (3/4), which is one day before the entire slate of films for Tribeca will be announced. Festival passes go on sale to the general public following Monday (3/11). Individual tickets will go on sale 4/9 for AmEx cardholders, 4/14 for downtown residents and 4/15 to the general public.
In related news, The National are co-headlining (with fun.) the Boston Calling Music Festival which goes down in Beantown on May 25 and 26. The fest also includes appearances by The Shins, Of Monsters & Men, Dirty Projectors, Andrew Bird and more. Tickets to Boston Calling go sale Friday, March 8 and the whole line-up is below.

About Lofts at Mill Number One
This historic property at 300 Bedford Street incorporates the first two mills (New Mills No. 1 and 2) constructed by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company in 1840-1841 for their own use on the east side of the Merrimack River. In 1859-1860 the space between the previously detached Mill No. 1 and 2 was filled by the construction of Mill No. 6 which gave the company additional spindle, loom and card capacity for the manufacture of fancy goods. The three joined buildings with attached picker houses and a later (c.1890) finishing room addition on the west side continued to play an integral role in the company's manufacturing process until Amoskeag ceased operations in 1936. Beginning in 1941, the building was used for more than thirty years for shoe manufacturing.
Reborn as the Lofts at Mill Number One, the building has retained many original interior and exterior elements including large over-sized windows, heavy timber framing, tongue and groove wood plank flooring. Combined with modern finishes of granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, designer carpet selections, in-unit washer and dryers, central air and controlled access, the Lofts at Mill Number One are the ultimate in upscale loft-style living.
Never leave home to work out again with the on-site fitness center and indoor basketball court. Enjoy the community room with billiard table and foosball or jump on the internet with the Wi-Fi hotspot.

How can this be so comfortable?
I have not had anything more comfortable since my old jean jacket that I had for a decade. It's soft, fits like a glove, warm when it needs to be and comfortable just when there's a little chill - I LOVE it. Quality is far and away better than any ski gear I've had in a LONG time. I'm going to get Westcomb bibs and a few other jackets... This company is the real deal!
blown away
you can tell that Westcomb is a company out to prove itself. The arcane jacket rocks! The fabrics and insulation used are top quality for breathabilty and weather resistance, and put together really well. The hood is one of the best designs I've seen - even with the micro-fleece lining it remains really thin, but still completly blocks wind and water. Might be a little tight over a helmet, but is thin enough to fit under a helmet as an option, and will still stretch and move with you. The cuffs have some super stretchy lycra sewn in that acts as wrist gaitors, but you can also pull it down over your hands to about your knuckles - has a thumb hole! AWESOME. Drawstring waist to keep out drafts and the pow. The fit is great. I am inbetween a L and XL, and got the arcane in an XL. The large would have worked (with limited room for layering), but the XL doesn't look or feel baggy, and still looks amazing with room for any combo of layering I might choose.
I took a bit of a gamble going with a company I knew nothing about. With gambling, you win some and you lose some, and with the Arcane I scored big time.

In the photo the jacket appears really short. Is that a correct representation?

1) How much does it weigh (size L)?
2) Is the hood also insulated? (By the way, I don't this S3 insulation is a Polarguard product.)
3) Is the primary use as a ski jacket - perhaps not very packable?
To answer your questions:1) The Arcane is not a light jacket. It weighs in at about 32oz. for size Lg, but you have to keep in mind that this jacket was designed for durability, warmth, and stretch. If lightweight and packability are major criterias, this might not be the jacket for you.2) It does not have an insulated hood. The Recon IL (Polartech Powershield w/Hardface and Primaloft), which is very similar to the Arcane in design and features has the insulated hood. The Arcane's hood was designed to be more discreet by zipping into the collar. It does have a fuzzy, micro-fleece lining and is virtually windproof.3) This jacket is very versatile in that it can be used as an everyday, go-to jacket, is durable enough to withstand abuse that, say, a construction worker would put it through, but is also incredibly warm and stretchy for more active type activities such as skiing. You are right, it isn't a very packable jacket and not designed necessarily for winter backpacking, etc. I think it's an excellent belay jacket due to it's laminated construction (ie. no cold spots) and it's ability to take abrasion and move without being restrictive. Most who own one that I've talked to say it's quickly become their favorite winter jacket.The S3 is actually a Consoltex insulation similar to Polarguard (continuous filament fibers).
RE: S3 as a polarguard product - it really is. I found this article about it. Here is an exerpt: "By bonding Polarguard - a full-stretch synthetic continuous filament insulation - to a mechanical stretch lining, Consoltex is producing a lightweight insulated soft shell fabric solution that maintains the stretchability, breathability, abrasion and weather-resistance of a true soft shell through multiple wash cycles. "
full article here:
The Arcane is an Oven!
Westcomb makes a great jacket... The Arcane fits slimmer and better than any other insulated jacket I have ever tried on. It has amazing built in hand-covers that help out when your gloves are off on those frigid days and a great hood that looks good and stows easily (though may be small for a ski helmet). And even though this jacket is slim cut, the stretch makes this jacket super comfortable for serious movement. Its def burly enough for the mountains but also sharp enough for nights in the city - which means I rarely take it off. The only reason I haven't given this jacket a full 5-stars is that it sometimes can be too warm and mine DOES NOT have core venting... It could really use pit zips.

Golf Channel reporter Jim Gray, who got in hot water last fall after engaging in a heated exchange with Ryder Cup captain Corey Pavin, has been removed from further network coverage at this week's PGA Tour event in Los Angeles after precipitating another emotional incident.
Gray, a free-lance reporter who long has been known for his bold reportorial style, was benched Friday by the network after players and caddies in Dustin Johnson's threesome complained after Gray questioned Johnson during live play in the first round of the Northern Trust Open.
Johnson arrived late for his tee time Thursday morning and was penalized two shots, a story that became a headline during the first round. Gray spoke briefly with Johnson during the middle of his round and asked questions about why he was late to the tee, then reported Johnson's remarks on the network's pregame show.
Bobby Brown, Johnson's caddie, was particularly upset about the interruption, which came on the back nine. As a general rule, reporters do not speak with players during live play unless the player initiates the discussion. Certainly in matters relating to more emotional issues, like rules issues or the gaffe that nearly got Johnson disqualified, that unwritten editorial tenet would doubly apply.
An agitated Brown profanely complained to reporters after the round and to Gray directly about the interruption. Playing partners Steve Stricker and D.A. Points were also said to angered by Gray's decision to question Johnson during live play.
The network issued a formal statement Friday: "Our focus is to provide the best possible golf coverage for our viewers. Anything else is a disservice. In order to avoid further distraction, we've decided to remove Jim from this particular assignment."
The network had no comment on Gray's long-term future and declined to make Gray available for comment.

Without knowing what's going on in the background it's impossible to judge Arsenal's transfer policy beyond what you can see on the surface.
But, from the outside looking in, it does seem that Arsenal are not the most decisive club when it comes to getting deals done.
This could either represent indecision on the part of the manager or a lack of willingness to spend big by the Arsenal board.
Javier Manquillo seemed a dead cert to sign for Arsenal from Atletico Madrid until Liverpool jumped the queue and now they appear much closer to the signing.
But reports today suggest that Arsenal have moved on and could be close to signing another defender.
The Metro says:
Arsenal will open negotiations with Italian side Catania today over a deal for their talented defender Gino Peruzzi.
The Gunners are desperate to add another right-back to their squad this summer and after missing out on Javier Manquillo, Peruzzi is the new target.
The 22 yer old Argentinian is relatively inexperienced but full of promise. After leaving Velez Sarsfield in 2013 he moved to Europe with Catania where he has played just one season. But he's performed well enough to earn 4 caps for the Argentina senior side so the omens are good with this lad.
He's quick, tenacious and loves to get forward.
Let's have a look at the youngster in action. Arsenal fans, are you frustrated about transfers even though you have signed Alexis Sanchez this summer?Follow @soccersweep10

Kozol believes that children from poor families are cheated out of a future by grossly underequipped, understaffed and underfunded schools in U.S. inner cities and less affluent suburbs. The schools he visited between 1988 and 1990--in burnt-out Camden, N.J., Washington, D.C., New York's South Bronx, Chicago's South Side, San Antonio, Tex., and East St. Louis, Mo., awash in toxic fumes--were "95 to 99 percent nonwhite." Kozol ( Death at an Early Age ) found that racial segregation has intensified since 1954. Even in the suburbs, he charges, the slotting of minority children into lower "tracks" sets up a differential, two-tier system that diminishes poor children's horizons and aspirations. He lets the pupils and teachers speak for themselves, uncovering "little islands of . . . energy and hope." This important, eye-opening report is a ringing indictment of the shameful neglect that has fostered a ghetto school system in America. 50,000 first printing; BOMC and QPB selections; author tour.
Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc.
In 1988, Kozol, author of Death at an Early Age ( LJ 7/67) and the more recent Rachel and Her Children ( LJ 3/15/88), visited schools in over 30 neighborhoods, including East St. Louis, Harlem, the Bronx, Chicago, Jersey City, and San Antonio. In this account, he concludes that real integration has seriously declined and education for minorities and the poor has moved backwards by at least several decades. Shocked by the persistent segregation and bias in poorer neighborhoods, Kozol describes the garrison-like campuses located in high-crime areas, which often lack the most basic needs. Rooms with no heat, few supplies or texts, labs with no equipment or running water, sewer backups, fumes, and overwhelming fiscal shortages combine to create an appalling scene. This is raw stuff. Recommended for all libraries. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 6/1/91 under the title These Young Lives: Still Separate, Still Unequal; Children in America's Schools .

Re: 'On Earth, petroleum once turned petty thugs into world leaders'
OPEC's clout has been declining for decades. The only time they put up a truly united front was the oil embargo of 1973. They are divided into different camps with different agendas.
Their share of the worlds oil market has been declining for decades and will continue to decline as the USA and Canada oil production continues to ramp up and as the Russian's continue to explore more of their vast untapped resources.
Most of the OPEC countries have a single resource--oil, they have no heavy industry of their own, depend on foreign nations for 90% of their arms industry, have backward social infrastructures, limited educational resources, and are plagued by conflicts, uprisings, civil wars, repression and unstable govts.
Anybody who bemoans OPEC's "world control" and "evil agenda" has some pathetic agenda of their own.

TTM Technologies discloses adjustments, cuts Q4 non-GAAP EPS to 23c from 26c
TTM Technologies disclosed in a regulatory filing that subsequent to filing its 8-K with the SEC on February 5, the company was notified by a customer of a warranty claim for defective products. The company estimates a potential liability of approximately $650,000 for this claim. The warranty claim resulted in an approximate $650,000 decrease in the company's Q4 net sales. Net sales are $381.7M for Q4, compared to $382.4M as previously reported. In addition, the company increased the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets of one of its China-based subsidiaries by approximately $1.6M. The increase in the valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets and the tax impact of the warranty claim resulted in a net increase of $1.3M in the company's tax provision for Q4. On a non-GAAP basis, the net impact of the above adjustments is a decrease to net income attributable to stockholders for Q4 to $18.6M, or 23c per diluted share, compared to $21.5M, or 26c per diluted share, as previously reported.

People often embark on an exercise program with the goal of losing weight but fail. Research shows that those who fail frequently have one rather surprising factor in common: a lack of time.
Everyone seems to be squeezing every moment from every day. Even when you do make time for exercise, however, you may not enjoy the full benefits if you have not also made time to eat right. To lose weight, a portion of the time you commit to fitness needs to be dedicated to eating well so that you can exercise well.
"It's very common for people to feel tired while exercising to lose weight because they have very busy schedules, and planning meals and snacks falls to the bottom of their list of priorities," says registered dietician Marlia Braun. "Food seems so accessible. If you forget to pack a nutritious lunch, you think you can easily walk out of your office door and either hit the break room or run across the street to the deli."
Braun points out that meals prepared at home tend to have a higher nutritional value, which leads to greater health and energy. And when healthy food is just a refrigerator or a lunch bag away, it is in fact faster than fast food, and saves calories and money, too.
Braun worked closely with me as the health nutritionist at the Sports Performance Center I founded at the University of California, Davis. Today, she continues to counsel athletes who are dealing with lack-of-time/lack-of-energy syndrome.
"To keep healthy food within your grasp, you need to grocery-shop, even if you can't go frequently," Braun says.
Here are some guidelines for providing yourself with truly doable, home-cooked fast food that will make your time at the gym pay off:
- Variety is fundamental to the longevity and sustainability of a diet, as well as to getting adequate nutrients for your hardworking body. Make a colorful grocery bag your goal. Each hue offers different nutrients, Braun explains, and it's important to include an array of colors in your diet each week.
- Change up your whole grains. Try barley and quinoa as well as brown rice and whole wheat. The best say "100 percent whole grain" on the package and list grain as the first ingredient.
- Buy some fresh fruits and vegetables to consume over the next two to three days, such as bananas and asparagus, and others that will stay fresh longer, such as apples and yams.
- To keep your portion size down, select smaller apples, oranges, potatoes, bananas and so on. Industrialized farming techniques and hybrid varieties today produce apples as large as three servings. One serving of fruit is eight ounces, or one cup - about the size of a tennis ball.
- Get over any fears of frozen. Frozen vegetables are healthy and easy to keep around, and they come prewashed, trimmed, and cut up - perfect for quick preparation in stir-fries and soups, and with pasta and grains, or solo, notes Braun.
- Braun also recommends frozen low-calorie, low-sodium meals, such as those by Healthy Choice, Weight Watchers, and Smart Ones. "They are good sources of fiber and protein, don't go over 180 to 300 calories, are well balanced, and they always provide a portion of protein and a grain," she says. One or two a week will better fuel those bike rides than binging on microwave popcorn.
- Canned vegetables are higher in sodium and contain less fiber, nutrients and phytochemicals than fresh vegetables, Braun says, "but they're still better than a candy bar."
- Fruits canned in their own juice (not syrup) and drained are another option.
- Shop the perimeter of the store -- that's where you will find the least processed foods. Avoid the aisles, says Braun; they primarily contain empty calories.
- Don't abstain from foods you love, just reduce your portions and frequency. Last, Braun recommends stockpiling whole-grain pastas and other kinds of grains to cook up on the fly.
"Throw in some frozen vegetables and you've got a meal," she says, "and only one pan to wash." Eric Heiden, M.D., a five-time Olympic gold medalist speed skater, is now an orthopedic surgeon in Utah.

Louisville's Dominique Brown scores a late fourth quarter touchdown to put the Cards up in an eventual loss to Central Florida. Their game against Houston later this month could be key in recovering from that in the league standings.
The University of Louisville football team has already played this season on Thursday night and Friday night. Soon, the Cardinals will do so in the coveted Saturday night time slot.
The American Athletic Conference announced Monday that U of L's Nov. 16 game against Houston kicks off at 7 p.m. and airs on ESPNU from Papa John's Cardinal Stadium.
Should Houston (7-1, 4-0 AAC) upset 21st-ranked Central Florida (6-1, 3-0 AAC) this Saturday, U of L (7-1, 3-1 AAC) could host the Cougars with The American's automatic BCS bid at stake. If the three teams find themselves in a tie atop the league ...

Waste-to-energy gets $1.5 million in British Columbia
- Details
- Category: Waste to Energy
05 Feb 2012
- Published on Sunday, 05 February 2012 17:02
- Hits (7752)
Canada's BC Bioenergy Network, a government-funded nonprofit, is providing a total of 1.5 million Canadian dollars for a waste-to-energy project that will divert 27,000 tons of organic material from landfills to create enough power for some 700 homes in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia.
The Energy Garden project of Fraser Richmond Soil and Fiber will use anaerobic digesters to convert food scraps and yard debris to biogas, producing more than 6,000 megawatt-hours of electricity each year.
BC Bioenergy Network will be supporting two components of the project with a 1 million dollar loan toward the commercial demonstration of a High Solids Anaerobic Digestion plant.
An additional 500,000 dollar grant will be given for the acquisition of a pilot-scale mobile H.S.A.D. testing unit called a "mobile energy harvester."
The BC Bioenergy Network was set up in April 2008 with a $25 million grant from the British Columbia government to develop and demonstrate the province's sustainable bioenergy capabilities. Energy Garden is also receiving $4 million in investments from the Canadian government.
Over 50 jobs will be created by the Energy Garden project during its construction phase.
Harvest Power, Fraser's parent company, produces renewable energy and soils, mulches and natural fertilizers from organic materials. Founded in 2008 and operating facilities in the Mid-Atlantic and West Coast of the United States, and in Ontario and British Columbia, the company processes and finds use for 500 million tons of organic waste a year. – EcoSeed Staff

TOS fans - What is your second favorite show?

Re: TOS fans - What is your second favorite show?
Even if it's just 14 votes, I find it interesting that TNG has twice as much votes as DS9.
If we're to put any value on these few votes, it seems that TNG is more popular among TOS hardcores as myself even though DS9 generally seems to be the more popular show on this forum. Just see the
TNG vs DS9 - The Showdown
thread for examples-
So far, it seems that other TOS fans, just like me, find the format and/or the substance of TNG more appealing in comparison.

Apple expands its mobile media advertising development tool
Posted on Apr 7, 2014 by YuMe
Video ad publishers today understand that television is no longer the best and only way to reach audiences through advertising. Thanks to technology, a large majority of today's consumers rely less on traditional TV viewing for information. The advent and rapid adoption of laptops, tablets and smartphones has provided additional outlets for brands looking to connect with consumers using video marketing strategies.
One of the fastest growing pieces of technology is the smartphone.
A study released in January by eMarketer predicts 1.75 billion people around the world will use a smartphone in 2014. By 2017, that number is expected to grow to 2.5 billion, the equivalent of 33.8 percent of the global population.
This sizeable growth represents a tremendous marketing opportunity for brands using video marketing strategies, and Apple is making it possible for companies to take advantage of this trend using its iAd Workbench software.
AdvertisingAge reports the Cupertino, Calif., company has added mobile video advertising capabilities to its software package and opened it up for anyone with an Apple ID, an iPhone or iPad to use it. Using iAd Workbench makes it possible to launch a mobile ad campaign as well as make adjustments when necessary. Additionally, users will also have the capability to track the effectiveness of ads created and deployed using the software due to the integration of tools capable of measuring audience reach.
Companies using the service can pay per either click or every thousand impressions an ad gets; rates for the revamped service included with mobile video capability have not been released.
AdAge reports initially, advertisers paid as little as $1 million and as much as $10 million to use the service when it was first launched. Apple generated $260 million in net revenue from iAd in 2013 and this year, revenue generated from the use of the software could grow to $487 million.

Duck Rice at Four Seasons
9 comments:
yummmmmmmm i want some 4 seasons duck..ReplyDelete
no.. i just want some big fat ducks!
hehe.. i too had duck.. (post coming up) but across the road from 4seasons.. ;P can u guess where?ReplyDelete
I keep hearing how good Duck King is. Perhaps you can find your big fat duck there??ReplyDelete
Across the road? Don't have Chinese restaurant what. Isn't that Barclays? OMG, did I miss a possible duck rice?? Don't tell me Royal China.
Duck rice! Duck rice! Duck rice!ReplyDelete
Can't have enough of em.
Haha! Soooo good right? Rice and gravy, with duck! Bestnya!ReplyDelete
J -Its a tough choice but I'll live with it! :-)
Kwong - yea I heard the same rumour. Well, they do taste VERY similar. I say, all the better cos now there are two places to eat duck! Yum!
Indulge Cafe = http://bestcafeindulge.com/ . Give a try a new opening cafe at Kuchai Lama KL. They serving top selling Mille Crepe and plenty delicious foodReplyDelete
I always thought the duck tastes exactly the same at both restaurants - and the rumour about the 4 Seasons chef running off to open his own place is true. The waiter at Gold Mine confirmed it when I was in there last with my dad. However, I do much prefer Gold Mine - the dishes are so much better.ReplyDelete
Forget about Duck King - not so good la. Found it pretty dissapointing. Then again we only had Peking duck.

The people of the Ivory Coast are an amalgam of many different ethnic groups, first brought together by the accidents of colonial conquest and made an entity for administrative convenience. The history of their country, as a political unit, dates only from 1893 when it became a French colony. Before that time, the story is one of disjointed tribal activities and of the haphazard encroachment of European traders along the fringes of the coast. Since then, it is a record of social integration and gradual evolution under the colonizing efforts of the French, culminating in the emergence of an independent nation.
As a European colony the Ivory Coast was a latecomer in West Africa, and even then, penetration from footholds on the coast, through the dense forest and into the interior was a slow process. The French did not fully pacify the country and win effective control until after World War I, and intensive development was not undertaken until after World War II. Throughout this colonial period the country had a measure of autonomy in local matters, but it was enjoyed only in the restrictive framework of the huge French West African federation. In fact, until 1958, the only ways in which the French colonizers treated the Ivory Coast as a distinct political entity were by establishing a territorial assembly to assist and advise in local administration and by requiring the colony to pay its own way in financial matters. As a consequence, the concept of a completely distinct nationality was only a few years old at the time of independence and had something less than full force.
Two other fundamental legacies from the colonial history continue to permeate political life. The nation's leaders, educated in French schools, steeped in French culture, and trained in French political institutions, not only think and act as Frenchmen but apply as a basic principle of government the French theory of étatisme--the concept of the supremacy of the state--and a strongly centralized administration. Moreover, the long period of integration of the Ivory Coast in the French West African federation, whose member territories shared a common civil service, common political and social organizations, and a common market, developed in the leaders similar viewpoints and close working relationships with their counterparts in the other former French West African territories.
Independence came abruptly, but once the course was set the
