Mother Falcon @ Empire Control Room - 8/22/2015
Earlier this month, Austin-based indie orchestra Mother Falcon sent out this message:
Just a quick note to let you know that MF's 3rd album, Good Luck Have Fun, will not be released as planned this Friday, August 14. In addition, the album's first single, "Kid", has been pulled. The release parties and concerts scheduled for 8/21 at the ND (w/ RF Shannon and The Quintessential Clarinet Quintet) and 8/22 at Empire Control Room (w/ TAFT and Monté) will become free shows as a gesture of appreciation to the band's hometown of Austin for many years of love and support. Mother Falcon will make a major announcement about the new album and the band's future next week.That major announcement is that the new album will now be released on October 9 by their new label, Universal Music Classics. Their fourth album, planned for 2016, will also come out via UMC.
What does Mother Falcon's Matt Puckett have to say about all this?
"Good Luck Have Fun explores more deeply the indie-pop as well as the neo-classical sides of our sound. It's new territory for us both sonically and now in our partnership with UMC. We feel the team at the label truly understands both aspects of what we are up to musically and we can't wait to see what comes next."Congrats to the band for all that, and for the packed not-release shows they played over the weekend. We were at the Empire one. Pictures are in this post, and more shows are coming.
Elizabeth Sobol, President & CEO of UMC underscores Matt's sentiment: "I've been following Mother Falcon for quite some time now. Their classically-derived instrumentation and exploratory compositions set them apart. No one sounds like Mother Falcon. Their music is truly in line with the artistic vision of Universal Music Classics."
After a couple of October gigs in Houston and New Orleans, Mother Falcon will head out on a fall tour with Ben Sollee. That trek hits City Winery in Nashville, World Cafe in Philly, Thalia Hall in Chicago, Le Poisson Rouge in NYC on 10/21, and many other places. All dates are listed with the rest of the photos below...

Reagan cheers Red 7's inevitable demise (more by Tim Griffin)!
Red 7's light up sign behind the bar (more by Amanda Hatfield)
Same old story: beloved music venues fight to survive as new hotels, condos, and rising rents make it harder and harder, even though their existence is part of the reason everyone wanted to be there in the first place. The Mohawk and Cheer Up Charlies (fka Club Deville) are struggling with BS. And today is was confirmed that one of our other favorite Austin rooms, Red 7, will be closed by the end of September. This comes after the recent announcement that sister venue Holy Mountain (fka Beauty Bar) is going around the same time.
Red 7 and Holy Mountain each have two stages, so that's four less stages in the Red River music district, four less stages to host Fun Fun Fun fest afterparties, four less stages centrally located for SXSW (Red 7 was the home to BrooklynVegan SXSW day parties in 2014 and 2015).
There is some good news though: Red Eyed Fly (715 Red River Street), which still has seven years on their lease, will join forces with Red 7 and Transmission Entertainment (who book Red 7, Mohawk, Fun Fun Fun Fest, etc) to create a new venue called The Sidewinder! More info below...

6th Street #Austin: Come for vacation. Leave on probation.— amberdemure (@amberdemure) June 6, 2015
If you've ever been to Austin, you probably know that 6th Street resembles Mardi Gras on weekends. If you've ever been to SXSW, you've likely have spent some time wandering up and down the crowded street while weaving through drunk people on your way to and from various music venues, bars, head shops and late-night food joints. Cops are always out in full force, and this weekend it looks like it got especially rowdy.
In the viral video you can watch below, you'll see a group of cops arresting at least one guy before more cops show up on horses. That's when the real fun begins...

Hey guys, due to flooding in the downtown area, we are canceling tonight's show. Be safe out there.— The Hawk (@mohawkaustin) May 25, 2015
Austin, TX -- our home away from home, one of the biggest music cities in the US, home of SXSW, ACL, Fun Fun Fun Fest, countless musicians, venues, friends and many great people -- was hit hard by heavy rains that caused horrible flooding all over the city and other parts of Texas and Oklahoma. As you may have heard and seen on the news, the flooding took out trees, cars, homes and businesses. At least ten people lost their lives and more are still missing. Animals were evacuated from shelters.
The North Lamar of area in Austin got particularly hit hard (check out video below).
Among other more important things, this played havoc with scheduled concerts. Purity Ring's show at Stubb's on Saturday (5/23) got postponed to Monday at Austin Music Hall (5/25) which, in turn, then got canceled. This Wednesday's kickoff to the free "Blues on the Green" series at Zilker Park (an Antone's 40th-anniversary celebration) is postponed till June 3 (Jimmy Vaughn and the "special guest" are still scheduled to perform). The Mohawk on Red River, as you can see in a tweet above, cancelled a show, though some places (like Scoot Inn and Shangri-La) went out of their way to make sure people knew they would stay open the same night.
The Austin Chronicle has a list of resources for those in need. Some videos of the weather chaos are below...

Austin's Levitation Fest announces 2015 schedule & set times ++ listen to a mixtape featuring bands playing Day 1
We're about three weeks away from Levitation (formerly known as Austin Psych Fest) which happens in the Texas Capital from May 8-10 at Carson Creek Ranch and the fest has just announced the schedule and set times. Tame Impala and Spiritualized headline on Friday, The Jesus & Mary Chain and Primal Scream headline on Saturday, and Flaming Lips and 13th Floor Elevators headline on Saturday. Might we see Primal Scream's Bobby Gilispie reprise his old role as JAMC's standup drummer? Tickets are still available and you can check out the schedule below.
To get you, uh, pysched for the fest, we've got a mix featuring the bands on Friday's Levitation lineup (DIIV, METZ, Soft Moon, White Fence, Lightning Bolt, the aforementioned headliners and more) which was made by Al Lover (who's made Levitation/APF mixes before) who will be DJing the Reverberation Stage that night. The mix makes its premiere in this post and you can listen below. That's the poster for Friday above, which is part of a set by artist Robin Gnista which you can buy at the fest.

Live Nation officially acquires majority stake in C3 Presents (Lollapalooza, ACL, Stubb's, Emo's, etc)
It was rumored before but is now official: Live Nation, the globe's biggest live events promoter (which books shows at Irving Plaza, Gramercy Theatre and other places in NYC) has acquired a controlling stake in independent concert company C3 Presents. The Austin-based C3, who also have a separate artist management division, are behind the Austin City Limits music festival, Lollapalooza and other big festivals around the world (and shows at Emo's and other venues in Austin and around the country).
In a press statement (via Billboard), C3 say "We are excited to join Live Nation and become a part of their global family, while continuing to grow our festivals within a culture of entrepreneurship that will empower our team to keep improving these festivals and the fan experience."
The NY Times reports:
Live Nation Entertainment, the concert and ticketing giant, is in advanced talks to buy a majority stake in C3 Presents, the country's largest independent promoter, with a portfolio that includes the popular Lollapalooza and Austin City Limits festivals.C3, best known for owning those festivals, is also a major force in the Austin rock club scene. They recently bought the Emo's name (and its new location, Emo's East), and book shows at Stubb's, Lambert's, The Parish and other places. They also had a lot to do with Metallica's Orion Festival (which took place in Atlantic City and then Detroit).
The prospective deal, in negotiations for months but still not completed, would give Live Nation a stake of 51 percent in C3 Presents, and value C3 at around $250 million, according to two people with knowledge of the talks.
A spokeswoman for Live Nation declined to comment, and representatives of C3 did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Monday afternoon.
C3, based in Austin, Tex., is run by three friends all named Charles or Charlie -- in the music industry, they are widely known as "the Charlies" -- and the company has grown quickly from its founding in 2007.

Sylvan Esso @ Emo's in Austin - 8/17/2014
Originally scheduled to be at the smaller Parish, Sylvan Esso's headlining Austin show on Sunday was moved up to the much bigger Emo's, which also sold out. Amelia told the crowd it was their biggest show yet. That definitely won't be true anymore after they headline Terminal 5 in NYC in January. Still working off just one album of material, their shows aren't the longest (Amelia apologized for that), but they are special.
Their tour-mate Dana Buoy opened the show with a set that included his cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Everywhere", which you can listen to, along with more pictures from the TX show and all tour dates, below...

Murder City Devils releasing LP, replace Death Grips on Fun Fun Fun Fest; Modest Mouse replace Death Cab
Murder City Devils (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
Fun Fun Fun Fest says:
FUN FUN FUN FEST is announcing today two changes to the music lineup for the festival Nov 7-9, 2014 in Austin. Modest Mouse will now be performing on Saturday, Nov 8 on the Orange Stage. The band will fill the slot previously held by Death Cab For Cutie, who had to cancel their performance due to an unforeseen and unavoidable scheduling conflict. The band is very sad to miss out on FFF, and they look forward to returning to Austin in 2015.That was quick! It was less than a week ago (and at the start of a holiday weekend) that Fun Fun Fun Fest published their response to Death Grips.
Also, following the napkin-announced breakup of Death Grips, FFF Fest is announcing that the Murder City Devils will perform in their place on Sunday, Nov 9 on the Black Stage. Murder City Devils will be playing in support of their new album to be released Aug 5, "The White Ghost Has Blood on Its Hands Again," which is their first full length studio release since 2000's "In Name and Blood."
To view the full festival music lineup broken down by day and stage - or to purchase weekend passes, Ultimate Smooth Passes (USP) and single day tickets - go to funfunfunfest.com.
FFF Fest has also recently released their 2014 Yellow Stage lineup, including comedy (Fred Armisen, Thomas Middleditch & Kumail Nanjiani from HBO's Silicon Valley, W. Kamau Bell) and spoken word (John Waters, Jello Biafra) and more. Stay tuned for upcoming announcements on the skate & ride action sports lineup as well as this year's Aqua Olympics program.
Modest Mouse also have shows coming up in CT, NJ, NY and other places.
Death Grips were also supposed to play FYF Fest which Murder City Devils is already playing. MCD also have a handful of other west coast dates in support of a new album called The White Ghost Has Blood on Its Hands Again (out August 5), as you can see in their tour flyer with the cover art, below...

Austin Psych Fest photos are up in five parts:
(via @killquilty [Sadie of Speedy Ortiz])
One of Austin, TX's most iconic outsider landmarks -- Daniel Johnston's "Hi How Are You?" mural on Guadalupe & W. 21st -- is now on the side of an asian restaurant called... Thai How Are You? (?!?!?!). This happened last year when David Roberts and his wife Noi Sukkij bought the space which used to be a restaurant called Thai Spice. There are other branches of that restaurant still in Austin and they wanted to change the name:
He and his wife wanted to initially open a "quiet little Thai café," but soon realized that high rent at the restaurant that suffers a dip in business during summer called for a new strategy.While the name is of questionable taste, and probably makes anyone familiar with Johnston a little sad, on the plus side, Roberts has also vowed to keep the mural as-is and looking good:
After researching the history of Johnston, whose mural is constantly being photographed by passersby, Roberts decided to capitalize on the musician's fame in an attempt to drive traffic to the restaurant. Roberts reached a financial agreement with the Johnston family to appropriate the famous slogan as part of the restaurant's new name. - [Austin 360]
"It will be the same mural, no changes to the form or any of that," assures Roberts. "I didn't know the history, and my wife certainly didn't know the history. I had seen the mural and thought it was just one of those interesting quirks about Austin. Only while we were there and saw the attention that it gets every day did it start to pique my interest."Did anyone eat at Thai How Are You? while at SXSW?
Roberts looked into the mural's history and eventually came upon Johnston's website, hihowareyou.com, which helped put him in touch with two people: Dick Johnston, Daniel's brother, and Heather Olson, an Austinite who's worked with the Johnston family "for nearly a decade" on various marketing items like T-shirt sales. Together, the three decided to embark on the restoration. - [Austin Chronicle]
Residual Kid recorded w/ J. Mascis, played Free Week (pics); Cheer Up Charlies moving to Club DeVille spot
Mohawk photos by Tim Griffin
J. Mascis & Residual Kid in Mascis-chusetts
Residual Kid @ Mohawk in Austin - 1/3/2014
They may be young, but they are talented and apparently J. Mascis agrees because the Austin band, who we also caught at Fun Fun Fun Fest in 2012, recently spent some time in Massachusets recording with none other than the Dinosaur Jr. frontman. Residual Kid's recent Facebook posts include quotes like: "Having a blast recording in Mascis-chusetts! J. Mascis rules!", "Man, you're gonna LOVE these new recordings with J.Mascis!", and "Mascis-chusetts has been awesome! Recording with J.Mascis was an amazing experience - can't wait to share the new songs with you!"
Meanwhile, Ben Redman (drums), Deven Ivy (guitar) and Max Redman (bass) are back in Austin and celebrating the annual week of free shows known as 'Free Week' which continues through 1/11. Residual Kid played a free show at Mohawk on 1/3 and pictures from that show, which was with What Made Milwaukee Famous, are on this post. If you missed it, RK play again Thursday (1/9) at Holy Mountain and Friday (1/10) at Cheer Up Charlies, both also free.
Their upcomin gCheer Up Charlies show will also sadly be one of the last happening at the eastside space which is closing down after this weekend and moving to Red River in the former home of Club DeVille. This is big music venue news for locals and SXSW-tourists alike. Both DeVille and Cheer Up Charlies have been very active venues during SXSW, with Cheer Up Charlies especially notorious for being the location of many unofficial Todd P shows.
Club DeVille, where we hosted a bunch of BrooklynVegan SXSW shows, is (was) also right next door to Mohawk where we recently caught Big Freedia and Public Enemy and.... Residual Kid. More pictures of the latter below....

oh no! (more photos of Austin City Limits Day 1 by Tim Griffin)

Check out our pictures from Friday, and the ones from last Sunday which would have been the same lineup as today.
"Our first priority is always the safety of our fans, staff and artists," said Shelby Meade, communications director for C3 Presents, the promoter behind Austin City Limits Music Festival. "We regret having to cancel the show today, but safety always comes first."

Grizzly Bear at Stubb's in Austin - 4/8/13
The Grizzly Bear-curated ATP, which was to go down in the UK on May 5, has been rescheduled to November 2 due to two headliners dropping off. All tickets for May 5 will be honored on November, but if you can't make it, refunds are available. Grizzly Bear's day was set to happen the day after the Yeah Yeah Yeahs-curated portion, which will still go down on May 4 as planned.
Grizzly Bear have also recently expanded their tour to include a number of other dates, all of which are listed below. Still, their only NYC show is their slot at Governors Ball in June.

As usual, we're not getting much sleep right around now because we're crazy busy preparing to represent down at SXSW with four full days of two-stage parties, in addition to a couple of nighttime showcases. And though SXSW is just two weeks away, we can't announce our lineups yet. Meanwhile, follow @bvSXSW on Twitter, sign up for our brand new BrooklynVegan SXSW Email Newsletter, pray for us and SAVE THE DATES....
As the flyer above says, BrooklynVegan Day Parties will be at the 6th & Red River location formerly known as Emo's. We couldn't be more excited to be back in one of our favorite old Austin venues (even if it no longer carries the "Emo's" name). The two stage club has been closed for two years but is reopening for the week of SXSW as "The Main" and "The Jr". We'll have the daytime portion on both stages (noon-6pm each day, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday --- March 13-16, 2013). All FREE. Complimentary beverage and food options to be announced as well. Stay tuuuuned.
P.S. We did announce one band.
ACL Fest 2011 (more by Tim Griffin)
Following in Coachella's footsteps...
The Austin City Council just voted unanimously to allow C3 Presents [who also own Lollapalooza] to expand the Austin City Limits Music Festival at Zilker Park to two weekends next year.What's next, the ACL Cruise? As the article mentions, this takes effect in 2013. Meanwhile, the one-weekend, sold-out 2012 ACL Fest happens October 12 - 14.
The resolution states that City Manager Marc Ott is encouraged "to negotiate and execute an agreement with C3 Presents to include an additional weekend event for the Austin City Limits Music Festival," beginning next year. - [KUT News]
Divine Fits played a secret show at the Continental Club in Austin, their first-ever live performance (pics, video, setlist)

Divine Fits @ The Continental Club - 7/31/2012
Tonight (8/1), indie rock supergroup Divine Fits (Britt Daniel from Spoon, Dan Boeckner from Wolf Parade and Handsome Furs, and Sam Brown from New Bomb Turks - and auxiliary member Alex Fischel) are set to play their official first show at a sold-out Beerland in Austin, TX.
But last night (7/31), they got together and played a secret show at Austin's The Continental Club. Billed as 'The Hot Skull', they were sandwiched between Austin's The Laughing (who were playing their first show) and TV Torso. Divine Fits ran through the almost the entirety of their forthcoming Merge debut (out Aug. 28, which includes a cover of Nick Cave's "Shivers") plus a take on Tom Petty's 'You Got Lucky'; pretty sure all in attendance felt like they did.
As for the rest of the country, Divine Fits haven't announced a full tour yet, but they do have a few dates set up, including stops in the members' respective hometowns. They play Dan's homebase, Montreal, on Friday, August 3 (not part of Osheaga Fest), and visit Brown's Columbus, OH stomping grounds on August 6. They also play Chicago on August 5 and Salt Lake on Aug. 9.
UPDATE: Brooklyn and Toronto shows were also announced.
All tour dates are below, along with more pictures (and video) Divine Fits, The Laughing and TV Torso below...

Feb 14, 2016; 6:07 AM ET The latest national weather news
Jan 19, 2016; 6:15 PM ET Those with little protection and over-exposure to the extreme cold run the risk of frostbite. Here are a few expert tips for prevention and treatment.
Heavy rain will raise the risk of flooding across more than a dozen states from the Southeast on Presidents Day to the East Coast on Tuesday.
Up to 75 people were forced out of their homes on Tuesday after a massive wedge tornado tore through McMullen, Alabama.
A severe weather outbreak, including the threat for tornadoes, will erupt across the Mississippi Valley and Deep South into Tuesday night.
A potent storm is likely to fuel a significant severe weather outbreak over part of the southern Plains and Mississippi Valley early next week, including on Groundhog Day.
Severe storms spawned deadly tornadoes in Florida early Sunday morning. Meanwhile, an inch of snow wreaked havoc on roadways in Washington, D.C., at midweek.
While the amount of snow and wind will pale in comparison to that of the mid-Atlantic states, the storm will hit travel and daily activities hard in parts of the South.
At least two people are dead near Sarasota after tornadoes and severe thunderstorms crossed central and southern Florida in the early morning hours of Sunday.
The heaviest precipitation with a storm in the eastern United States will occur as rain and locally severe thunderstorms over the southern part of the Atlantic Seaboard during Friday.

Well, weather forecasters were correct that Sandy would be destructive. But the economists Obama cited have been off base thus far; companies are waiting to see what may happen in 2013 before they'll agree to ramp up investment. For example, a host of expensive new regulations may well be on the way.
Meanwhile, when considering whether Sandy's destruction will end up boosting the economy, consider the broken window fallacy explained by economist Frederic Bestiat way back in 1848 (now that's a forecast!). He explains that, while the money used to repair a broken item benefits the person making the repair, the rest of us lose out because that money isn't available to purchase new products.
"Society loses the value of objects unnecessarily destroyed," Bestiat noted. "To break, to destroy, to dissipate is not to encourage national employment."
In modern terms, consider what Bestiat calls "seen" effects: there are people who will "get" a new house or a new car as a result of Sandy. But that house or car merely replaces one that, less than a week ago, was perfectly serviceable.
Meanwhile, the family that lived in the destroyed house or relied on the car to get to work is being forced to live out of suitcases, spending time with relatives or paying for a hotel or apartment. And they're not able to get around without a car. These are among the "not seen" effects that Bestiat warned about.
Then there's the loss of productivity, another hidden cost of the storm. Businesses up and down the east coast were shuttered by the storm. The New York subway system was swamped. Even if their buildings weren't damaged, companies will never get those work days back. There were deals left undone, products left unproduced, and food spoiled by the loss of power.
Then, of course, some businesses were literally washed away. Those owners may well decide not to rebuild at all. That imposes a "not seen" cost for their employees and suppliers that won't be known for months or even years.
"Destruction is not profitable," Bestiat wrote a century and a half ago. It's a big reason Keynesian economics doesn't work, and a lesson we'll be re-learning as the massive bills from Hurricane Sandy come due.

Just received two of these beautiful lamps for our master bedroom. They arrived well packaged and very easy to assemble. They clearly bring a stylish, understated "wow" factor to the room. I will definitely order from Lightology in the future. the two things I would point out is to measure ahead of time. These are pretty large lamps (and heavy) but not too big for the space I wanted them in and also in the photo it looks like there is a blue ting in the coloring. It's actually all clear glass. I am VERY happy with these lamps and feel like our master bedroom is more complete.

God called in sick today,
and the sky is dancing.
People walked hand in hand
singing in tune with the damned.
Running without stories
'this is what tragedy feels like'
dead is the new alive
but misery loves company.
Racing with the devil
one doesn't dare stop against
the lord of the damned
he laughs against the concrete.
Can one play with madness
as they dance on clouds of mind?
Heavens a lie when butterflies are flying in hurricanes
And God takes a day off.
Wasted time throwing rocks at stars
souls refuse their eternal rest
they drink a cup of galaxy for breakfast
hymn of the shameless.
Obsession is an ugly word.
When dead becomes the new alive
the devil walks the earth
and God takes a day off work.
God called in sick today by OiluxWatch

From my favorite place to get prompts when I encounter writers block, #343 'God called in sick today'. I had a bit of fun, wondering what could make sense and what wouldn't, and just really enjoyed writing this piece.

Oh my gosh thank you so much! You have no idea how much this means to me.
Really evocative! I didn't quite understand what the deal was with the devil "laughing against the concrete" but I love the flow of this piece, and so much of the imagery. I like the combination of the subtle horror and strange jubilation. It questions and challenges, and that's really awesome! Great poetry!
Dead is the new alive and misery loves company, well played plague rat well played
a very beautiful job!!!indeed very good!!!
It's amazing, I love it. Great work
I love the concept of this! Super cool! Keep up the good work
Incredibly written! I can imagine exactly what you're trying to describe; you're really talented. <3
Wow. I like it.
Not bad. Can't say I like the title though. Opening yourself up for comparison to Dave Havok and Charles Baudelaire is risky.
So basically what happens in my class at school....
I've never honestly used the phrase " this blew my mind" before, but I intend to use it now, cause I feel that my mind has definitely been shattered to pieces ( in a good way ). I can completely picture the chaos, and how humans revel in sudden freedom after abandoning their moral conscience when God takes a day off.
Very well written! o:
This poem is even more profound when you consider the possibility that God has already left for a while and that that's our current world. Overall this gave me chills. I loved your language and how you used words like "damned" and "galaxy"--abstract words that would give the work more depth and yet not words that are too over-used to have lost their meaning.
I loved the imagery, though it made me think of the recent string of tornadoes in Oklahoma.
This is a lovely piece, but I feel I should point out that 'dammed' should be 'damned'.
I'm afraid I don't 'get it.'
Is there an Emilie Autumn reference in here? "Dead is the New Alive?", "Misery Loves company?". This is awesome by the way.

Picture: Sienna Miller Glamour Women Of The Year Awards held at Berkeley Square Gardens - Outside Arrivals London, England - 05.06.07
Sienna Miller is trying to mend her broken heart by throwing herself into stage work - and she is determined not to let fiance Jude Law's infidelity overshadow her talents.
The Layer Cake actress was distraught after the adulterous actor last month (JUL05) admitted to a month-long affair with his children's nanny DAISY WRIGHT.
But the 23-year-old, who is currently starring as CELIA in William Shakespeare's AS YOU LIKE IT in London's West End, insists acting is her true love and will help her through any difficulty.
She says, "There's this lovely expression - Dr Theatre.
"It's great, it's what I love doing, I wouldn't be want to do anything else."

Disney's Go.com Logo must Stop
Starting on Monday, November 15, 1999, Walt Disney Co. must stop using thegreen traffic light-type emblem for its Go.com Web sites. U.S. DistrictCourt Judge Terry J. Hatter Jr. ruled that the logo used by Disney is toosimilar to the one used by the GoTo.com search engine. In December 1997,GoTo.com began using the logo of a green circle on a yellow backgroundwith the letters "GoTo" in white. Almost two years later, Disney beganusing a logo of a green traffic light in a yellow case with "Go" written inwhite to link its various Web sites under the Go Network heading. Thetiming of this ruling couldn't have been any worse for Disney, who is inthe process of launching Go.com as a separate Internet business.

MEMORANDUM FOR: REGIONAL ADMINISTRATORS FROM: PATRICIA K. CLARK, Director Directorate of Compliance Programs SUBJECT: Use of Filler Compounds Such as "Bondo" to Cover and Conceal Structural Damage to Maritime Cargo Handling GearIt has been brought to our attention that structural damage to cargo handling gear installed on vessels is being concealed by covering over damaged areas with a filler material such as "Bondo." Suspect areas where this condition might exist can be identified by lightly striking the surface with a hammer which causes the filler material to crack and fall out. Currently, we are aware of this recognizable unsafe practice having been identified on the following foreign registry vessels while conducting longshoring operations in U.S. ports on the west coast: M/V SUN PACIFIC (NKK Registry), M/V HELM STAR (NKK Registry), and M/V BLUE COSMOS (NKK Registry). However, compliance officers are to be advised that this practice could occur on any vessel-mounted or shore-based cargo handling gear. Agencies accredited to certificate maritime cargo handling devices have been advised of this unsafe practice by separate correspondence.
Concealing structural damage on cargo handling gear constitutes an extremely serious and unsafe occupational hazard. If you have any additional information or documentation with respect to incidents involving this unsafe practice, please contact [the Division of Maritime Compliance Assistance at (202) 693-2399].

Kenneth was born February 8, 1939 to Melvin and Juanita Cox in Melissa, Texas.
He grew up along the Gulf Coast in Lake Jackson, Texas, where as a teenager in the Brazosport High School marching band, a certain brunette drum major named Sue caught his eye. Sue Muckelroy would become his life partner. Together, they went to Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, where he fell in love with his other life-long passion, the TCU Horned Frogs. After graduation, Ken headed to University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston, where he and Sue had their first child, Allison. After a brief internship in Dayton, Ohio, where Amy was born, they came back to Texas for Ken's residency in Radiology at M.D. Anderson and St. Joseph Hospital. They rounded out the Cox clan then with Angie and Mike. After a couple of years in private practice in Lufkin, Ken and his family moved to Conroe, where he and Sue would raise their family and live for nearly 20 years.
A natural leader, Ken was among a handful of physicians who helped expand Conroe Medical Center to care for the growing community during the 1980s. Along with his long-time partner, Dr. Benjamin Hughes, he established and grew a successful radiology practice, and he always held a special place in his heart for cancer patients who relied on him for radiological oncology treatment. He retired in 2000 and he and Sue moved to Fort Worth. For as much physical care as he gave to thousands of people during his career, it was the spiritual care, guidance and leadership that he gave to his church, to his friends and mostly to his family that truly defined his life. Along with Sue and the rest of the Cox family, he was a long-time member of First Presbyterian Church of Conroe. He grew spiritually through his many years as a student and then as a discussion leader in Bible Study Fellowship.
Simply put, Ken was a rock. He was the person that his friends could rely on. He was the Dad who his children knew would always be there for them. Most of all, he was a faithful and loving husband of 51 years to his "girlfriend" Sue. His life - more pointedly, how he lived his life - will be reflected in the lives of his children, Allison, Amy, Angie and Mike, as well as his ten grandchildren, Bragen, Bronte, Cameron, Bryce, Kellen, Austin, Jacob, Kendall, Tate and Allie.

Glam nightclub in Chislehurst.
Patrick Grafton-Green, content editor / / News
CHISLEHUSRT nightclub Glam, whose licence was revoked following a number of violent incidents, has appealed the decision.
The club in Sidcup Bypass was closed early last year after a review, but reopened in September.
A series of violent incidents followed, leading police to apply for a further review, which resulted in Bromley Council's licensing sub-committee revoking the club's premises licence.
The committee heard evidence from police that the club "had a tendency to downplay" and not report incidents as they occurred.
There were issues with the training of staff, and the management did not fully comply with conditions, some of which they had suggested.
Licence holder Adrian Pollock denied management had failed and said progress had been made, including the installation of upgraded CCTV.
He argued the club should not be held accountable for the inadequacies of the security firm they employed, and suggested allegations of assault were "not high" compared to an average London nightclub.
However the sub-committee concluded that, despite the efforts of the licence holder and the staff, there was a long-standing problem of drink-related violence at the premises and not enough was being done to prevent the supply of alcohol to those who already had too much to drink.
The committee accepted police evidence that there had been a failure of management.
Chairman of the licensing sub-committee Councillor Tim Stevens, said: "After weighing up all the evidence, we were satisfied that the licence holder and staff had not dealt with the serious issues of crime and disorder arising at the premises.
"Further, there have been breaches of the conditions of the licence that were imposed at the last review.
"There was no alternative but to revoke the licence."
The appeal has been made within the required 21 days at Bromley Magistrates' Court.

Mr. Lukacs talked about his book Democracy and Populism: Fear and Hatred, published by Yale University Press. He described the current state of American democracy, warning that the U.S. system has become vulnerable to demagoguery because of what he called our current populism. The author said that this devolution is evident in such things as popular sentiment being the new substitute for what once was public opinion, and propaganda and infotainment being the substitute for knowledge and history. After his presentation he answered audience members' questions. close

Cubs GM Hoyer says Samardzija and Tanaka isn't either/or deal
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Cubs fans can dream about Jeff Samardzija and Masahiro Tanaka as a one-two punch at the top of the rotation. That idea would energize the base and maybe shake up the rebuilding timeline.
It would be an extreme long shot, but this is a question worth asking: How would the Samardzija talks impact a Tanaka bid?
"They're not attached at all," general manager Jed Hoyer said Monday. "It's not an either/or-type-thing. We obviously like Samardzija a lot and Tanaka's a talented pitcher. We're not looking at them joined or not joined. There's no influence on each other."
The Cubs will spend this week at the winter meetings in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. – and maybe the next seven-plus months – listening to what teams would give up for Samardzija. The demands will be sky-high for a 200-innings/200-strikeouts power pitcher who will remain under club control for two more seasons.
[MORE: Cubs hope wake-up call will motivate Castro]
The team executives, agents and international media gathering at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort are waiting to hear what the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles are going to do with Tanaka – and how exactly Major League Baseball and Nippon Professional Baseball will structure a new posting system.
Samardzija or Tanaka? The reality is the Cubs could wind up with neither at a time when the upper levels of their system lack impact pitchers and even back-of-the-rotation guys are getting four-year deals as free agents.
Would signing Tanaka send the message to Samardzija that the Cubs are committed to winning and could see the light at the end of the tunnel? Could it better match up Samardzija's timeline with the organization's vision?
"We're not really talking about it that way," Hoyer said.
Sources on both sides say the Cubs and Samardzija's representatives haven't reengaged since discussions about a long-term deal fizzled out last offseason. It's not bitter or contentious. Samardzija loves Chicago and the Cubs think he has the mixture of talent and personality they could build around. It's just business.
[WATCH: Latest from the Winter Meetings]
It's also unclear if the Cubs have the financial flexibility to make a splash this winter.
"What people are speculating about our resources – they're not based on any kinds of facts," Hoyer said. "There's very few people that know exactly what we have the resources to do and obviously we'll keep that internal. I think one thing in this game is that you don't get any points for having people out there know how much money you do or do not have to spend."

In this book, ARE YOU LISTENING, PRIME MINISTER ? A Coffee Table Analyst's Perspective on India's Development and Development Objectives, the author gives his insights and perspectives about the realities in India today. He is of the opinion that India is at the cusp of the great leap forward and if it can get its act together then it is poised for exciting times ahead. India has to grapple with a lot of challenges and has to address them and surge forward and it has to do this, in the shortest possible time, otherwise the initiative will slip out of its hands. He is of the view that there has to be attitudinal shift in the way we see problems and there has to be a sense of urgency in fixing issues which have been troubling the country for a long time now. India also has to find unique homespun and innovative solutions to some of its unique problems which are peculiar to it. Also it can adopt some of the success models which have been tried and tested and proved successful in other countries. It is not as though these challenges and problems are insurmountable and that the solutions are beyond our imagination. It only needs our collective will, a far sighted vision and a consciously cultivated 'problem solving' mindset. In terms of the economy, India has been growing steadily and is one of the fastest growing emerging economies. The mood is buoyant and spearheaded by its heady success in the IT sector, the other sectors are also raring to go. India has a lot going for it and with favourable demographics it can reap the demographic dividend. However, the author is of the opinion that unbridled population without any curbs will prove to be the country's undoing as already it is exerting tremendous pressure on the infrastructure and the other meager resources and is causing environmental degradation. His contention is that India's political apparatus has really not served the country well and the political culture has degenerated from bad to worse with a lot of discrepancies creeping in the political process. Unless these anomalies are addressed it could sabotage the country's development process and be a spoke in the wheel. However he has tremendous faith in the people of the country and he is of the view that these hiccups could be addressed looking straight in the eye and the ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit of people coupled with their enthusiasm will eventually see it through. The need of the hour is an epochal vision and a statesmanlike stewardship which can inspire the nation to reach great heights. A born again India, once more, has to have a tryst with its destiny !
