Can I hit you on the washing machine?
Gently, I'm not a fiend
But u know the way u rock me slowly
…I always feel horny
Can hit u on my balconny?
Nightly, or if it's cool daily
I've never been crazy like this
…but girl you will feel this
How do you like it baby
How do you like it baby
If you feel like, kissing me
Dancing with me, effin' with me, riding me
If you feel like, in love with me
It's the concept, the concept
Can I hit you in the bathtub?
Bubblin', givin' you wet hugs
I know a way to make you come surely
kinda raw, but it's me shorty
Can I hit you on the sms?
Digital, sendin' you a s.o.s
When I'm away, I wanna feel right here
…so girl you have no fear
I know this is your first time
But it's gonna be allright
If you feel like, kissing me
Dancing with me, effin' with me, riding me
If you feel like, in love with me
It's the concept, the concept
ouh oui girl, I know this is the right time
for u and me,
I love u girl

occupied: painter
After meeting Todd Anderson, who is also a recent New York transplant to Los Angeles, I thought how wonderful it would be to feature him in the first installment of Occupied. He is a painter, after all, and is there a more romantic and enduring pursuit than that of art—of painting?
And how exactly does a modern-day painter make it? A life of art, it seems, can lead to a meandering trajectory of one job to the next in hopes of one day "making it." For a writer, I can tell you, it's not easy. I was only briefly brave enough to quit my job, go into debt and dedicate myself to writing full-time. And that was in my mid-20s while I attended graduate school and, in fact, I'm taking liberty with the word "dedicate." Because even then I was worried about money and I worked too much and wrote too little (not for lack of time, but rather for lack of discipline).
I can tell you that I want this writing thing to be easy. I want to be good and I want to be published in prestigious journals and I want praise and awards and fellowships and money. And if that weren't enough, I want all of that to be settled as soon as possible. But as with everything—damn it!—there is a journey. For me, it has led to some exciting jobs. And often, I fear that the new career will be fulfilling enough to burry my passion. And if that happens, should I consider myself lucky to have found work that excited me enough to keep my interest; or shall I look back and regret, regret, regret?
So, Todd, how is painting for you, I wondered.
Todd and I met on a sunny and warm winter's day (there aren't many places you can say that, you know) in his Downtown LA loft, where he'd recently moved after spending some time with his mother in Santa Barbara. Some time, enjoying life, being a good son and not painting, as he would later tell me. The loft, he said, reminded him of New York, except with more space and with lower rent. He said, he was ready to rededicate himself to painting, after too much time off, and this was the kind of place he could see himself being holed up for long stretches, working.
For the first interview in Occupied, the beginning was the best place to start:
NR: Did you decide you wanted to be a painter when you were a child?
TA: Yeah, it started when I was little. I was the kid that drew well in school. I was really shy when I was growing up. I was intimidated by the cool kids, and the only thing I had was an ability to draw. And that was a way of attracting girls. They actually wanted my pictures, so it was like 'all right, now I've got something. I've got something I can do.'
But I never took it seriously until I was graduating from high school and deciding what I wanted to do. My father was very conservative and business-minded. He told me to go to Arizona State University and get my business degree and if I wanted to do art, he suggested I do a double major. But he didn't want me to go to art school.
My mom was very, completely supportive of me going to art school. She was really always very encouraging of me being an artist. So we went to New York together in the spring of '96 and we looked at SVA, and we looked at Pratt and I fell in love with SVA.
NR: You just felt it.
TA: Yeah, I just felt it. It was a gut feeling and I just went with it. But in school I wasn't really serious until I went to Paris. I studied abroad in my junior year and it was then that I started focusing. Beforehand I was drawn to New York's music scene. I was really big into independent hip-hop. And I was obsessed with that culture and I was obsessed with being a DJ and learning how to scratch, so I became a turntablist.
I spent more time my freshman year learning how to scratch and tag—write graffiti—than paint. Immediately I had become friends with the graphic design kids that were from Connecticut and I learned that being from the east coast was totally different than being from the west, where if you wrote graffiti where I'm from (Arizona) it's like you're affiliated with a gang. On the east coast it's what white kids do in the suburbs. They skateboard and they write graffiti. And that's Connecticut life or whatever. So it was completely different. I went through this chapter in my life where I had a fade haircut and wore totally baggy clothes and went that whole direction. And then I finally came around and took the arts seriously. Even though I always was interested, I just wasn't acting on it. But it took me meeting artists like John Miller to really grab me and be like, this is really interesting.
NR: Did you romanticize being an artist? Right now I'm reading Just Kids, Patti Smiths's memoir and she writes about meeting Robert Maplethrope who says to her "I want to be an artist" which is what she wants, but actually, neither of them even knows what that means or what it entails but that's what they want to do because of this outcast/romantic association that they have with this abstract idea. And so they wing it.
TA: Oh, yeah. In high school I discovered abstract expressionism and the color field painters. The people that put New York's art scene on the map. Guys like Brice Marden. And minimalism, too was a huge thing for me. I realized when I was in high school, 'wow, there's something really going on in the art world. There's more to it than pretty paintings. These are people that are really challenging the idea of what art could be' and that really moved me.
NR: do you want your paintings to say something or do you just do it for the sake of doing it.
TA: I think anyone that says they don't want their art to do anything other than make them happy is a liar. I think it's show business. Because if you're going to do something, you have to contribute. You have to say something different. You can't just spit out what others have already said. The idea of inventing something is extremely important.
NR: So, you went to Paris and you started to take art more seriously and got your BFA in painting and then what? Where did you go from there?
TA: What happened was I started working for Jeffrey Deitch and I got my master's degree working at the gallery. Working at Deitch projects was my MFA. Because essentially, that was again that connection where I'm meeting the collectors and going out and seeing what goes on in the art world. And that was another wake-up call for me, because I realized I'm a kid from Scottsdale, Arizona and this is what goes on in New York in the art world. Those are completely two different worlds and I was totally enamored by it.
But at the same time I was too easily impressed. My role in the gallery was to be the instillation assistant. I was low-level, and again, it was that whole thing where I aspired to be part of the click and part of the celebration.
NR: I feel like that's the great secret of the art world and the fashion world, though. You said you were a kid from Scottsdale and then you were in the middle of Deitch Projects. Everybody's just a kid from Scottsdale and then they come to New York and then they're not that kid any more.
TA: It's extremely rare to come across people who are actually from that world. Everybody's from somewhere else.
NR: I was reading a great article about the CEO of Burberry and it was all about how she turned this iconic and failing British fashion house around. She's this extremely bright, influential and savvy executive in the fashion industry and she's just an American girl from an ordinary Midwestern family. I feel like at a certain point you go to New York and you either shed that, or you don't.
TA: Yeah, there were lot of kids that I went to school with who were incredibly talented and as soon as we graduated they went back home and I was like, what the hell are you doing? To me, that didn't make sense at all. But then the other side of that is that it did make sense finally when I moved here (to Los Angeles) because I was so tired of being a mouse on a wheel.
NR: Yeah, but let's get back to the trajectory, so you were working at the Deitch Projects and then…
TA: Yeah, I worked for Jeffrey for about three years.
NR: were you painting through this?
TA: No. That's the other thing. I was so involved with that scene it was really hard for me to work at the same time. I'm only really good at doing one thing. And that's something I'll never forget from an interview I had with Mary Boone. I will never forget it. She's actually someone I really admire. Even when I was in high school I was reading Artforum and her gallery page would just stand out from everything else—it was a full page and it was in your face. It made an impression.
So at one point I just randomly met a woman at a benefit in the Wooster space who said, a friend of mine is looking for an assistant, would you mind if I gave her your information. At that point I was really frustrated with working with Jeffrey, because he would have temper tantrums and I was over it. So, then I get this call at 9 o'clock on a weeknight from Mary Boone. I had no idea that it was gonna be Mary Boone. My phone rings and I didn't recognize the number so I let it go to voicemail and then I listen to the message it's this voice saying "Hi Todd, this is Mary Boone." And I'm like, 'holy shit!' I mean, I was just a kid. Recently out of school! So I set up an interview with her and I'm still so scared. Totally intimidated.
Basically, what I'm trying to get to is that when you're doing one thing, you're at your best. I'll never forget it. In the interview, it was two hours at her townhouse. Most intense interview I've ever had in my life—or experience—or conversation.
She said, 'I believe in doing one thing. So essentially, if you're going to work for me, you're no longer an artist.' She wanted a three year contract. But I realized that I didn't want to do that any more. I didn't want to go to dinner with Steve Martin and sell the art. I wanted to be the artist.
NR: So, you stopped working for Deitch Projects and you didn't take the Mary Boone Job.
TA: Actually, I left the art world all together. I had to shut it off. I started working in a totally different trade just to get myself away from the politics.
NR: What did you do?
TA: I started painting houses. High-end. Fancy, Park Avenue type shit. It had to be high-end so that I could pay the bills. And then I started doing custom finishes, and that's still what I do to make money.
NR: And do you feel like that doesn't take away from your own work, given that you believe in just doing one thing?
TA: No. This is totally ideal. Now I'm in a situation that I have steady work and it's not nine-to-five. So we'll do a project that's five days on and then I'm off for a week or two and I can just focus and spend that time here in my studio.
NR: And do you? Are you painting?
TA: Yeah! I just did these two. This one I'm not done with. As soon as I moved in, and I'm only on my third week here, I made it a priority to open every single box and put everything away so that I could start working.
NR: Until now, how long had it been since you'd painted?
TA: I tried painting last year when I was at my mom's place, but it never felt right, because I wasn't alone.
NR: Have you had the opportunity to show your work yet?
TA: Yes. I had my first solo show at White Columns. It was work I'd done after the Deitch thing. So it was enough time for me to start moving back into my own world and not worry about what other people thought. 'cus that's the thing. At a certain point you just have to close the door and you can't give a shit about what anybody thinks. You just have to do what you want to do. You have to follow your gut. Because that's the only way your work is going to be genuine.
NR: If you hadn't gone to art school, what do you think you'd be doing?
TA: I have no fucking clue. No idea.
NR: Did you ever entertain the idea of doing something else for a living? I guess you did with your work at Deitch and your Mary Boone interview.
TA: Yeah. A lot of people told me I should be a dealer because I'm so social. And I was always really ambitious and all about who is who. To be honest, there were times during that when I was a total prick. But in the end I really like people and that's kind of the opposite of the stereotypical anti-social artist.
Except there was also that when I was working at Deitch I was so easily impacted by—because I'm so sensitive—when something would go wrong, I would instantly be super paranoid. And if you didn't operate in a cool fashion or a cool way it was total suicide. We liked each other and I was fascinated with him but we totally clashed. When it came to sitting down, we never really clicked. He's an alien, but I consider Jeffrey an artist, as well. He started the whole art consulting trend. He was the first one that brought the corporate world and melded it with the art world. And a lot of people hated that, but it was just a period of growth. So what if it reeks of corporate corruption but who cares. It's money and you need that in order to support the arts. At the end of the day you can't just be this total romantic.
NR: Would you be happy if you never became a famous artist and you just had your day job and you painted.
TA: I think I would be depressed. I would be a very sad person if I weren't showing my work.
NR: So you said you were showing in New York.
TA: Yes, I was showing my work, but it was also a phase when I fell in love with relationships that were unhealthy for me and so, again, I sort of lost track of focusing on my work. It takes a lot of alone time and I wasn't big on being alone. It was totally two different things. Couldn't operate on the same track. Again, it was having to choose one thing or another.
But now I'm at a place where it's just me. And it's my place and I don't even have to go outside. Now I can be holed up here and be totally content and focused. I plan to make my living by doing this.
NR: And do you think you will?
TA: (Pause)…Yes….Yes. Does that sound cocky?
NR: No. I think if you didn't say that, it would be bad.

San Diego-based Global Payout Inc. posted record fourth-quarter sales in 2012 of $119,475, compared to $38,322 a year earlier, and expects a significant rise in 2013 revenue from business-to-business products and services.
The spike was attributable to the advance purchase of 11,000 international debit cards and bank accounts from foreign corporations located in Hong Kong and Canada.
The management consultant services company and program manager (OTC Pink: GOHE) offers companies electronic payment and prepaid card offerings.
The initial sale of cards and bank accounts will result in prepaid card transaction fees that will generate monthly revenue to Global for 2013 and beyond, said the company.
In the first quarter of 2013, the company will implement 1099 and payroll debit programs using MoneyTrac Prepaid Discover cards for several businesses located in the United States.
The company has three co-branded programs to launch in the United States along with a card program for 2012 Olympian and professional boxer, JC Ramirez.
Also, through its wholly owned subsidiary in the United Kingdom, Global Funding Ltd., the company will launch a "Chip and Pin" prepaid card to initially accommodate two new business clients with more than 100,000 members from the European Union.
The company's flagship payment platform, MoneyTrac Consolidated Payment Gateway (CPG), is being tested and is scheduled to launch next month.
The web-based payment system will be used by multinational companies that require an efficient payout mechanism for its employees, contractors and members in over 180 countries.
Management anticipates activating over 100,000 revenue-producing CPG accounts in 2013.
"We are fortunate to have developed technology partners and issuing banks that can provide both U.S. and international payment platforms," says Jim Hancock, CEO, Global Payout.

TMJ Disorder and Headaches
One out of every 10 Americans suffers from chronic headaches, and they spend over half a billion dollars every year for over-the-counter medications to relieve their pain. They never imagine that their headaches may be caused by TMJ, and that their pain is the result of a bad bite.At Newman Springs Dental Care we know a bad bite can put your jaw-to-skull relationship out of alignment.When this happens, TMJ symptoms occur. This cluster of symptoms can include: headaches, earaches, ear ringing, loud jaw clicking, even stiffness and pain in the jaw, neck, shoulders and back. This cluster has puzzled doctors in the past. Now we can put a name to it: TMJ.According to recent studies, more than 40 million Americans (including many in the Lincroft, Jersey Shore & Red Bank areas) suffer with TMJ (Temporomandibular Joint Dysfunction) or MPD (Myofascial Pain Dysfunction). The good news is that we at Newman Springs Dental Care are taking the lead in finding solutions.
If you, or someone you love, suffer from the symptoms of TMJ, set up an appointment by calling us at (732) 945-4661 soon. You may find that TMJ is the missing piece in the puzzle — and, that the treatment works!

Foreclosure Hits Oregon's 'Shire'
Sushil Cheema reports:
The hobbit Frodo and his companions from J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings would be among the latest victims of housing market downturn—if they lived in Oregon. The Shire, a development with a Lord of the Rings theme in Bend, Oregon, is facing foreclosure proceedings.
As first reported in the Bend Bulletin last month, a notice of default and election to sell was filed in the Deschutes County Clerk's Office on July 22. The notice says that the McDonald family, which owns the property, owes Umpqua Bank more than $3 million.
"Just as The Shire was ready to launch, the market crashed," said Ron Meyers, the project's original developer. The bank that had been financing it decided not to extend the loans, he added. "We couldn't find other money."
Meyers came up with the idea for the community, which began to be developed in the fall of 2005. Each home has a name and a story attached to it, he said, including the Thatcher house and The Butterfly Cottage. Meyers himself helped write those stories, each of which would relate to the larger story of The Shire, he said.
Although it was widely reported that Tolkien's work was the original inspiration for the community, Meyers said it wasn't. "I had a concept about creating a sense of home and a sense of enchantment," he said. "A friend said, "That sounds like the Shire'" from The Lord of the Rings.
At the time, Meyers said, he had not read Tolkien's series, and the Oscar-winning films directed by Peter Jackson had not yet been released. But when he learned more about Tolkien's concept, Meyers liked it. "It's the place you finally want to come home to after all your destinations," he said.
Meyers saw the films when they came out, but he did not read the books. "I didn't really want it to change completely into Tolkien," he said. "I wanted to have my own accents. I didn't want to read something and then think later that they were my own ideas."
Meyers said he sold his share in the project to Dr. Lynn B. McDonald, the primary investor, in May for an undisclosed amount due to differences in opinion about the plan's details. McDonald, a former emergency room doctor, died on July 7, the Bulletin said, and his wife Jan is now trying to sell at least part of the property before a public auction scheduled to take place in December.

Disease Proof
VitaminWater Gets Sued!
Quite frankly, I think energy drinks are stupid. And apparently so do consumer groups. The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) has filed a lawsuit against Coca-Cola, producers of VitaminWater, for making undeserving claims about their product, such as preventing chronic disease and supporting immune system function. CSPI points out that VitaminWater's 33 grams of sugar in each bottle promotes obesity, diabetes and other health problems and the advertising is misleading; via Reuters.
Other "health" and energy drinks have also drawn heavy scrutiny. A couple years ago, a whacked out beverage called "cocaine" was pulled from stores and Red Bull, which has been linked to stroke risk, has been bashed for its dangerous caffeine load and marketing to children.
I've noticed that some of the unhealthiest looking people are the ones chugging down these drinks.

The songwriter community of Nashville came together last night to make a difference and they did it one song at a time! Hosted by Debi Champion and organized together with Rebecca Hosking 18 performers including David Ball, Glen Tubb, Jerry Foster, Don Wayne, Jimmy Payne, Bernie Nelson, James Slater, Pam Belford, Stan Webb, Doug Johnson, Mark Stephen Jones, Marc Alan-Barnette, Tony Lane, Chris Wallin, Walt Aldridge, Tommy Barnes, Michael Peterson, and Gerald Smith came and made the night shine.
$2,780.00 dollars was raised. All proceeds were given to UNICEF to help the children of Haiti. All participants can be proud of the evening's end results. There was a silent auction with items that were donated, by Spalding Entertainment, Broken Bow Records, Capitol Records, Steve Bloch, Music Stop, Barbara Cloyd, Bernie Nelson, Doug Johnson, Mark Stephen Jones, songu.com, NSAI, Debi Champion, Rebecca Hosking, The Commodore Bar and Grill, Holiday Inn Select and many more. All items were sold before the end of the night.
It was a packed house of friendly faces all working together for a common purpose, to help Haiti.
For those interested in doing work on the ground in Haiti It is hard to know what's going on in the midst of the chaos at this moment. Unless you're a trained professional you may be more of a hindrance than a help. Going and helping on the ground could be potentially dangerous without the right sponsorship. Do your homework be patient and never lose the spirit to give more than money.
Do not feel your efforts are not appreciated by donating money right now that is exactly what they need. Haiti is not an overnight fix and their needs will continue for many years to come. All you people eager to get your hands dirty keep your eyes open for jobs or volunteer opportunities in the near future. Soon the emergency phase will turn into reconstruction efforts and then you could go and donate your time and muscle.
Regardless your efforts here or there, recognizing the needs of our global community is vital to a safer more loving environment here at home and abroad. Big thanks and a whole heap of gratitude goes out to each and every single person that was a part of last night's efforts. If you mix our small amount with other small amounts soon we have large sums that can slowly make a difference.

By EMMALEE C. TORISK
Police Chief Drew Rauzan called an incident in which two men in police custody were caught on camera Tuesday afternoon smuggling a suspected marijuana cigarette into the department completely unacceptable.
Not only is Samuel A. Buxton, 22, of Monroe Street, Campbell, at fault for bringing narcotics into the department's booking room, but so might be the officer or officers who allowed Buxton to enter the room with the contraband, Rauzan said.
Buxton, who was being booked by police for a probation violation, has been charged with illegal conveyance of drugs into a detention facility — a third-degree felony.
For accepting the marijuana cigarette, and for trying to conceal it in his pants, Eddie Pierce III, 22, of Kirk Road, Austintown, has been charged with possession of drugs — a first-degree misdemeanor.
Sgt. John Rusnak was watching the screen monitor of the police department's booking room when the incident occurred.
Rauzan said he plans to conduct an investigation within the department to determine whether Buxton was properly searched by an officer or officers beforehand, then mete out the appropriate discipline. The incident is on video.
"No one's infallible, and we all make mistakes," Rauzan said. "If [Buxton] was searched to the best of our abilities, the discipline will be light. But if it was done haphazardly, just to cut a corner, the discipline will be severe."
Correction: Marijuana is not a narcotic.
time to shed the old way of thinking and get with the program, 20 states and growing.
This could easily be prevented by requiring clear handbags like many sports stadiums are now doing. A safe solution for anyone coming in and out of a police facility. I have one that I found here: http://www.preventsuicide.com/#!clear...

Comments allegedly made by Israeli defense minister Moshe Yaalon on Tuesday casting aspersions on the effectiveness of John Kerry's role in Middle East peace negotiations have increased tension between the U.S. and Israel on the heels of the passing of former prime minister Ariel Sharon, a central figure in the long history of the conflict.
News on the never-ending failure to resolve the issues, and particularly on the death of the controversial Sharon, provides another opportunity to ramp up criticism of the Israeli regime. It no longer comes as much of a surprise that the narrative of those so vehemently opposed to Israel never changes, although with reports that anti-Semitism is on the rise, it probably shouldn't.
Still, it is perplexing to many how critics from the Western World consistently find so much fault with Israel, the only true democracy in the Middle East, while ignoring or rationalizing the behavior of its opponents.
Sharon certainly didn't always represent the best of Israel. In his later years he surprised hard-right supporters by forming a moderate centrist party and evacuating Israeli settlers from the West Bank. That has never been enough, however, to soften condemnation of his more hawkish actions of his youth, including the raid on Qibya that led to the death of nearly 70 civilians and a Christian militia's raid in Libya, for which the Israeli government assigned him indirect responsibility.
It is common knowledge that war is hell and no matter how just the cause, it is impossible to have extended conflict without collateral damage. Even the most ardent believers in the United States efforts in wars just or unjust would seemingly have to acknowledge that atrocities occur, such as those allegedly committed by Allied forces in the Pacific during WWII, where Saipan-based U.S marine Steve Judd attributed some of the Allied excesses to "repeated exposure to horrors." London School of Economics Professor Antony Best summed it up stating quite simply, "the truth is that war is an occasion when God-awful things happen."
For Israel, war has been going on for well over half a century and regardless of the impetus, there will always be those, even in the Jewish community, who believe that ethnic cleansing was part of the Zionist emigration to the Holy Land. Washintgon Post opinion writer Richard Cohen, commenting on Ari Shavit's recent book "My Promised Land," recently claimed that there was "ethnic cleansing" of Lydda during Israel's fight for independence in 1948, citing Shavit's contention that "in it lies the dark secret of Zionism." He goes onto argue that a "required atrocity" of evicting 50,000 to 70,000 Palestinians was necessary to control areas near Jerusalem.
But revisionists seem oblivious to the very text of the Declaration of Eretz Yisrael (the Land of Israel) which clearly states only one of the many efforts to reach out to Arabs living in the area who had already been attacking the Jews:
"WE APPEAL — in the very midst of the onslaught launched against us now for months — to the Arab inhabitants of the State of Israel to preserve peace and participate in the upbuilding of the State on the basis of full and equal citizenship and due representation in all its provisional and permanent institutions."
This was also reflected in practice. Zionist leader David Ben-Gurion opposed the displacement of Arab fellahin, agricultural laborers who cultivated the land, whom he viewed as "the most important asset of the native population" and said 'under no circumstances must we touch land belonging to the fellahs or worked by them". In addition, much of the land was purchased - over half of it from non-Arabs and another 25% from Palestinian-Arabs.
But Ben-Gurion went much farther than that. Speaking to Palestinian nationalist Musa Alami in 1934 he stated "We do not want to create a situation like that which exists in South Africa, where the whites are the owners and rulers and the blacks are the workers. If we do not do all kinds of work, easy and hard, skilled and unskilled, if we become merely landlords, then this will not be our homeland."
Still, everyday critics of Israel and Zionism rarely acknowledge what many more learned detractors have documented about this supposed expulsion, here characterized as "atrocity." There is a large amount of documentation proving that not only was there no "ethnic cleansing" per se, which generally implies genocide, but much of the alleged transference or expulsion of Arabs that supposedly occurred was not at the behest of the Zionists but rather, the invading Arab governments. Reporting from The Economist, a frequent critic of Zionism, from October 2, 1948 stated:
"Of the 62,000 Arabs who formerly lived in Haifa not more than 5,000 or 6,000 remained. Various factors influenced their decision to seek safety in flight. There is but little doubt that the most potent of the factors were the announcements made over the air by the Higher Arab Executive, urging the Arabs to quit....It was clearly intimated that those Arabs who remained in Haifa and accepted Jewish protection would be regarded as renegades.'
Time's reporting on the battle for Haifa (May 3, 1948) confirmed the same findings: that the mass evacuation was partially due to fear and also at the behest of Arab orders; in fact, they had specifically strategized that withdrawing all Arab workers from Haifa would paralyze the city.
Indeed, not only were many told to leave but under the threat of treason. As longtime Israeli dissident Benny Morris wrote in "The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem Revisited:"
"Arab officers ordered the complete evacuation of specific villages in certain areas, lest their inhabitants 'treacherously' acquiesce in Israeli rule or hamper Arab military deployments…. There can be no exaggerating the importance of these early Arab-initiated evacuations in the demoralization, and eventual exodus, of the remaining rural and urban populations."
Khaled al Azm, Syrian Prime Minister from 1948-90 has himself admitted the Arabs played a central role in ordering the future refugees to leave their homes and admissions of fabricating stories of Israeli atrocities and other Arab leaders have taken responsibility for the plight of the Palestinians then and now rather than laying the blame entirely on Zionists.
That is in addition to well-documented history showing that attacks against the Jews were hardly uncommon long before Ben-Gurion's proclamation establishing the State of Israel and in fact, the Palestinians should not be solely identified as "victims" for many reasons including the claims of Israeli atrocities have often been exaggerated. More importantly, the violence was more often attacks on Jewish settlements beginning in the early years of Jewish immigration, starting with individuals and small bands and later growing to more widespread, organized attacks. The violence became more frequent and more brutal and were constant in Palestine in 1929 including the Hebron massacre, where which 67 Jews were murdered.
Although the Declaration and other statements by the Palestine Jewish authority, among others, clearly indicate that transfer was never their original intent, Morris himself noted in an interview with Shavit that Ben-Gurion had little choice when it came to moving hostile Arabs:
"He [Ben Gurion] understood that there could be no Jewish state with a large and hostile Arab minority in its midst. That has to be clear. It is impossible to evade it.
There is no justification for acts of rape. There is no justification for acts of massacre. Those are war crimes. But in certain conditions, expulsion is not a war crime. I don't think that the expulsions of 1948 were war crimes…. A society that aims to kill you forces you to destroy it.... When the choice is between destroying or being destroyed....
Critics of Israel are quick to dispute the notion that opposition to Israel equates to anti-Semitism; however, if their claims are accurate one has to wonder, given the history of the Middle East, it is only Zionism and the State of Israel that seems to garner so much opposition. After the Greco-Roman wars and a Persian conquest, there was a Jewish commonwealth established around 614. After that, it was again conquered by Arabs and transferred between different factions until falling under control of the Ottoman Empire in 1516, where it remained under Turkish rule until the British took over after WWI.
The obvious question is easily answered as MapsOfWar.com asks, "Who has controlled the Middle East over the course of history? Pretty much everyone. Egyptians, Turks, Jews, Romans, Arabs, Persians, Europeans...the list goes on."
Apparently "Hail the conquering hero" applies unless you are a Zionist.
Only Israeli control of the land seems to be a source of outrage. One can't help but wonder why, when you consider, as Larry Miller put it. "five hundred million Arabs; five million Jews. Think of all the Arab countries as a football field, and Israel as a pack of matches sitting in the middle of it."
The elusive concept of "Dayenu," a concept meaning "it would have been enough" that is a staple of Passover prayers, seems alien to the Arab world.
Amidst the various control over the centuries, it's not as if Jews were never there. Emigration accelerated after WWII but it had been going on for centuries. Aside from those who had been there from the beginning, one can easily see a significant influx as early as in the time of Columbus.
- Some Jews expelled from Spain in 1492, settled in Palestine.
- During the 16th century, Jewish communities took hold in Jerusalem, Tiberias, Hebron, and Safed.
- In 1697, Rabbi Yehuda Hachasid led a group of 1,500 Jews to Jerusalem.
- In the latter part of the 18th century, Eastern European opponents of Hasidism, known as the Perushim, settled in Palestine.
- Modern Jewish migration to Ottoman-ruled Palestine, known as the First Aliyah, began in 1881 as Jews were fleeing pogroms in Eastern Europe.
Further Aliyahs brought more Jews to the region.
- The Second Aliyah (1904–14) brought some 40,000 to Palestine.
- The Third (1919–1923) and Fourth Aliyahs (1924–1929) brought an additional 100,000.
In fact, the Jewish community even found itself at odds with Britain after WWII as Jewish refugees left destroyed communities in Europe for the Holy Land and the British found themselves unable and unwilling to try to mitigate the growing Arab-Jewish conflict, which peaked when Ben-Gurion declared the establishment of the State of Israel. After this announcement, it only took one day before Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Yemen declared war on the new State.
It's also important to note that Jews were not only emigrating from Europe but from other parts of the Arab world. Anti-Semitism was rampant throughout the Arab world and the Nazis and various influential Arabs became strange bedfellows during the rise of the Third Reich. The Nazis had begun broadcasting Mein Kampf in multiple languages including Arabic, a legacy of vehement hatred that survives today. Ultimately between 1948 and 1970 it is estimated nearly a million Jews fled or were expelled from Arab countries.
The native Arabs, who came to be known as Palestinians although they were predominantly Syrians, found themselves in a far worse situation than simply being told to leave by the incoming Zionists. Former Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas observed that the invading Arab armies promised to destroy the Zionists and protect the Palestinians but instead, forced them to leave and then either abandoned them or put them in ghettos not so different than the ones the Jews had been forced to live in.
Many first-hand observers are even less kind and point out what is still going on that today that most journalists understand:
"On April 9, 1953, the Jordanian daily al-Urdun quoted a refugee, Yunes Ahmed Assad, formerly of Deir Yassin, as saying: 'For the flight and fall of the other villages, it is our leaders who are responsible, because of the dissemination of rumours exaggerating Jewish crimes and describing them as atrocities in order to inflame the Arabs ... they instilled fear and terror into the hearts of the Arabs of Palestine until they fled, leaving their homes and property to the enemy.' "
Since that time, many ardent critics of Israel point to these alleged war crimes supposedly perpetrated by the Jewish state while largely either ignoring or rationalizing repeated acts of terror by their neighbors. And while denying the factors that led to many of the indigenous Arabs leaving their homes, they often refer to Israel as an Apartheid state, a label flatly denied by those who actually lived in under genuine apartheid in South Africa.
That comparison also requires ignoring the simple truth that Israeli Arabs, comprising nearly 20% of the population, live in peace under Israeli governance with equal rights and in fact, more rights than they would have living in a nearby Arab country.
Of course, the Palestinian refugees are not in the same situation—but they are not under Israeli jurisdiction and since the initial war, none of the Arab nations have provided a home for them in any of their plentiful land and in fact, actually confiscated some of the land designated for Palestine and kept it for themselves.
Fair-minded observers in the Arab world don't ignore the ongoing treatment of Palestinians by other Arab nations, who often persecute and kill them more often that Israel ever has in its worst moments. Much of the persecution by their Arab brethren is blamed on their own actions.
Many believe there will never be peace in the Middle East and it's hard to argue that point when supposed efforts to negotiate a peace treaty have always failed. Perhaps that is because those who have ostensibly represented the Palestinian people have had a different agenda.
Karmel Melamed posted in the UCLA journal in 2003 asking why so many ignore the mistreatment of the Palestinians by their own government:
"Why hasn't the mistreatment of Palestinians by Arafat's own dictatorship been a factor in their plight? Why has Arafat and the Palestinian Authority continued to keep the Palestinian people starving in rundown refugee camps when the government has had millions in U.S. and European Union aid to build homes, schools, hospitals and infrastructure? Again, where is [the] outrage for the thousands of Palestinians who have been mistreated by their own leadership?
Again and again, it is easy to blame Israel for the plight of the Palestinian people when their own leadership and the Arab world has done more injustice to them than anyone else. If there is anyone to blame for the Palestinian misery, it is the Palestinians' own leadership, which over the past 10 years has chosen a path of war, terrorism and death instead of peaceful co-existence."
Moreover, while the Palestinian government is now run by Hamas, a known terrorist organization, the most original perpetrator of "peace" was the master terrorist Yasser Arafat himself. One might well ask where else in history has a government ostensibly representing those forcibly displaced (although a fair evaluation of the facts shows that is largely not the case), insists that peace will only be attained by a return of what was forcibly taken, but was taken only as a last resort. Access to the areas the Palestinians want is only restricted due to the constant threat of attack. Yet despite Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak making far more concessions than any prior Israeli prime minister at the Camp David summit in 2000, Arafat walked away rather than making similar concessions of his own.
It should go without saying that any country at war is going to step over the line at times. Soldiers and politicians are far from perfect and there is nothing more dangerous to our humaneness that being at war. Current Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is well known for his oft-quoted adage "If the Arabs were to put down their arms there would be no more war… if Israel were to put down its arms there would be no more Israel. "
That point is open to debate but it has to be said that those who point to the State of Israel as a poster child of Zionist imperialism and genocide have to be willfully ignoring the acknowledgements of many even in the Arab world who have acknowledged that the plight of the Palestinians is hardly the result solely of actions on the part of Israel.
Even Jordan's King Abdullah, writing in his memoirs, blamed Palestinian leaders for the refugee problem:
"The tragedy of the Palestinians was that most of their leaders had paralyzed them with false and unsubstantiated promises that they were not alone; that 80 million Arabs and 400 million Muslims would instantly and miraculously come to their rescue.:
More importantly, as if pretending a routine sampling of sources alleging the one-sided perpetration of war crimes by Israel doesn't inevitably lead to Holocaust revision and denial along with blaming the Jews for everything from starting World War II by declaring war on Germany to controlling all the international bank cartels, the entire position of uniformly challenging the legitimacy of the State of Israel raises the question:
Why are the Arabs entitled to possess and control an entire football field while the Jews must give up their pack of matches?

Sometimes experiencing food or wine is not about the taste in and of itself but of tasting something so different - you may not even know how to classify it.
My food experiences in my travel to Thailand is best defined that way by my taste buds. My favorite place to be, other than snorkeling in the ocean was visiting the markets. I did try the dried and seasoned bugs - crickets, hoppers, etc. I have to say they were not bad; on the crunchy, nutty side of things with the right hint of spice. I might even eat them again.
Picking out little bags of food treasures at the floating market for our evening meals was a great adventure. I still didn't learn all the names of foods but a very good dish I haven't found in the state yet was Khao Moo Daeng. A very simple but bursting with flavor meat and rice dish. Almost a version of our BBQ pork on a bed of rice but not overwhelmed with BBQ. The personality of the beef was winner.
Another favorite was the little corn cakes they served - the right amount of sweetness and texture as they melted in your mouth. I picture them as a cross between potato cakes and corn muffins but very sweet like cake. I've got to figure out how to get these delivered!
So, don't be nervous around foods you don't know or can't identify - you can always get with a local guide for a true insight into the dishes and the food. Take away a new recipe, take away a new adventure!

The Grammy Salute "The Beatles: The Night That Changed America celebrated the 50th anniversary of The Beatles' first appearance on "The Ed Sullivan Show". The show aired on CBS on February 9th exactly 50 years to the day, date, and time of the original event. This first appearance on "The Ed Sullivan Show" is one of the most watched television events ever — with 74 million people tuning in to watch the group perform five songs during the variety hour. It is considered by many historians, critics, artists and viewers as one of the most important moments in music and television.
The special was taped on Monday, January, 27, the day after the 56th Annual Grammy Awards at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
I was at the taping of the special. The taping was exciting and ran just over three and half hours long.
The all-star lineup featured presentations by: The Beatles LOVE by Cirque du Soleil, Kate Beckinsale, Eric Idle, Jeff Bridges, Anna Kendrick, Sean Penn, Johnny Depp and host LL Cool J.
Performing at the event were Gary Clark Jr., Dave Grohl, Imagine Dragons, Alicia Keys & John Legend, Jeff Lynne, Maroon 5, John Mayer & Keith Urban, Brad Paisley & Pharrell Williams, Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, Joe Walsh, Stevie Wonder, George Harrison's son Dhani Harrison and a one-night only reunion of Eurythmics' Annie Lennox and Dave Stewart.
The performances were back by an amazing house band that included musicians such as Kenny Aronoff (drums), Lenny Castro (percussion), Chris Caswell (keyboard), Peter Frampton (guitar), Rami Jaffe (organ), Steve Lukather (guitar), Greg Phillinganes (keyboard), and Don Was (bass), who also served as the musical director.
Here are a few things not shown or added to the special on TV.
1.The special added the David Letterman segments interviewing Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr at the Ed Sullivan Theater which took place on February 4th.
2. The special also added the recollections from three fans who were in the audience for the Beatles' first performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show.
3. The interviews with three people who worked at the show and were there the night the event took place was aired on video clips in between set up between the bands. However, the segments were a lot longer and included more stories about the rehearsals and the actual taping day.
4. There was only one main stage for the acts to perform so the event showed old footage of The Beatles on the video screens in between set changes.There were so many clips that made the time in between performance go by quicker. The added clips were more than likely shown to help pass the time for the audience.
5. Actor Jeff Bridges's segment was longer which included him telling a story and how after watching The Ed Sullivan show, his dad actor Lloyd Bridges purchased tickets for everyone in the family to see The Beatles play a charity event for $25.00 a ticket. The whole family went and one of The Beatles recognized his dad from the TV show "Sea Hunt".
6. Maroon 5 opened the show performing two songs "All My Loving" and "Ticket To Ride", but their performance was shorten a bit from the taping. This may be due to the fact that they were one of the few bands to perform two songs.
7. Several artists received standing ovations for their performances.The first was the duet of "Let It Be" by John Legend and Alicia Keys followed by The Eurythmics performance of "Fool On The Hill", then Dave Grohl and Jeff Lynne's performance of "Hey Bulldog" then Joe Walsh and Jeff Lynne joining Dhani Harrison for "Something", Grohl and Lynne joining Gary Clarke Jr on "My Guitar Gently Weeps" and Stevie Wonder's "We Can Work It Out" before standing for the entire performances of Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney.
8. Stevie Wonder was the only artist to re do his song. The producers thought it sounded perfect, but Wonder stated that he wanted a re do, so "We Can Work It Out" was re done. Producer Ken Elrich also addressed the audience in between performances, talking about the show,the artists and introducing the house band.
9. The order of appearance was taped differently then the way it was on the special. Maroon 5 still opened and Paul and Ringo still closed the show. However appearances by Stevie Wonder and Johnny Depp were towards the end of the show, while The Eurythmics, Imagine Dragons were taped early on which I think helped build the audience excitement into the next artists to follow before the encore.
10. Lastly, at the end of the performance of "Hey Jude" where all the guest returned to the stage singing with Paul and Ringo. Paul went to each artists and hugged them and said a few words to each which appeared to be a thanks before coming back out with Ringo to bow again as he said the producers wanted them to do.

Doi Phaklong National Park is located in Long District, Prae Province. It once was Suan Hin Maharaj Park that was built for honoring His Majesty the King in the celebration of his 5th cycle birthday. Doi Phaklong is the source of Yom River. Its outstanding spot is Phukhao Hin Pakarang (the coral mountain) or Rong Hin Taek (the cracked rock channel) happening from the hollowing and movement of the face of earth. The area is wonderful and beautiful scenery to see. And there are many sightseeing spots awaiting the travelers throughout the year. This gains more and more tourists year after year.
The landscape is of high steep mountains laying from north to south. Some areas are plains on mountains with stones naturally coming out from the ground.
According to its high mountain ranges geography and its diversity of plant, the weather climate of Doi Pha Gong National Park is generally cold particularly in Winter Season which average temperature is 8-12 degrees Celsius. In Summer Season, average temperature is about 30 degrees Celsius. Rainy Season started from May to October which everyday is often raining.
Most of the area is mixed deciduous forest inserted with dry evergreen forest and Dipterocarp forest There are rare and nearly extinct wild animals e.g. mountain goat, barking deer, black bear, warthog and various birds. In the streams in the forest, there are many kinds of small fish, reptile and amphibian found.

Growing up, I quickly realized that not all the raindrops in life are lollipops and gumdrops. I continue to reach self-proclaimed checkpoints throughout the years that inspire me to proclaim, if I may quote Pooh, "Oh bother." There are letdowns, disappointments, and leaps of faith that send us falling unceremoniously to a hard ground below. I like to call these the "Nasty's" of life.
Whenever my Nasty's are around, I blame them on three potential suspects—me, others, and pure happenstance. Can you feel my validation in finger pointing? It doesn't change the situation at hand, but it gives me a sense of reason in being able to understand why I am currently in the mess I am in.
Only after I have played the blame game and feel that I have defended myself to the best of my ability against the Nasty do I retreat to my houses, in my bed, undetected beneath the covers to lick my wounds. These wounds typically involve hurt feelings and/or feelings of regret for what I did or did not say in the heat of battle.
This is also when I let my personal doctors and nurses come to my aid (otherwise known as calling so-and-so up to vent), to give me words of encouragement and suggestions (at times received without my asking and with some moaning) as to how I might better handle a similar attack by the Nasty's in the future. Reflection, particularly when shared, often permits me a clearer picture of the recent events that just took place.
Then comes the most difficult component to overcoming the Nasty's. Only after I have calmed myself, after the tears have dried, after the apologies have been made (on my end at least, for I am the only person I have control over), can I muster up the courage to leave my front door and rejoin the world. I remember what my mum always tells me: this too shall pass. And I will be better for it, having survived yet another learning experience.

Chelsea Clinton Owes Everything to Mario Batali
Babbo is where the magic happens.
There may be an 84-year-old activist in the West Village trying to get Mario Batali's Babbo shut down permanently, but Doris Diether probably doesn't realize that's where the power elite go to form alliances over plates of beef cheek ravioli. "It's not hyperbole to say I could not imagine my life in New York or really my life in general without Mario," Chelsea Clinton told the crowd assembled for the Food Bank for New York 30th Anniversary Can Do Awards Dinner, the Post reports. Apparently, that's where husband Marc Mezvinsky met Bill and Hillary for the first time. "Thankfully," Clinton said, "that went well." [NYP, Earlier]

College Hockey:Brewer Wins Third Annual Kazmaier Award
Netminder Ali Brewer, who led the ECAC with 1.33 goals-against average while compiling a 21-3-3 record for top-ranked Brown, has been named the 2000 winner of the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award.
The award, given annually to the outstanding player in women's college hockey, was presented at the Boston Marriott Copley Place Thursday. Brewer was selected from a group of four finalists by the Kazmaier Award's 11-member committee.
"Ali Brewer has turned in an outstanding senior season for Brown University, and recognizing her with this honor is part of a fitting end to a remarkable collegiate career," said USA Hockey Foundation President Walter L. Bush, Jr. "Her achievements truly reflect the qualities and accomplishments that the Patty Kazmaier Memorial Award represents."
Said Polly Rua, senior manager of sponsorships for Texaco, the award's presenting sponsor, "We congratulate all the candidates, especially Ali Brewer, who through their passion, hard work, dedication and continuous pursuit of excellence, have demonstrated world-class performance."
Brewer is tied for first in the nation in overall wins with 24, second in save percentage and third in GAA. She was named the ECAC goaltender of the week three times this year.
Her Bears squad faces ECAC rival Dartmouth this weekend in the AWCHA national semifinals.

There is no specific action plan to address trafficking in persons in Singapore; however, such acts are punishable under laws, which prohibit the trafficking of women or girls into the country for purposes of prostitution, unlawful custody or control of children, wrongful confinement, and trafficking of illegal immigrants. While none of these laws prescribe punishments commensurate with those for rape, punishments for offenses are substantial. Convicted traffickers would typically be found guilty of violating more than one law, which when aggregated could provide commensurate punishment.
There is no evidence that government officials are complicit in trafficking, and the country does not evidence significant corruption. Prostitution is not illegal, although profiting from it by other persons does violate the law, and the use of fraud or coercion to induce persons into prostitution is illegal. There is no specific campaign to combat or prevent the use of fraud or coercion to recruit foreign women as prostitutes, although some persons have been prosecuted and punished for crimes involving such acts. Immigration laws are enforced strictly, which sharply reduces the flow of persons potentially vulnerable to trafficking, and adds to the legal jeopardy faced by would-be traffickers.
The Ministry of Manpower investigates complaints by foreign workers, and prevents employers from terminating workers while an investigation is ongoing. The government substantially strengthened penalties against employers who abuse domestic workers in 1998, and prosecutes the now greatly reduced cases of abuse; however, victims testifying in cases are required to remain in the country and often are not permitted to work.1

Homeopathy in General Practice
By: R.A.F. Jack
Beaconsfield Publishers, Beaconsfield, 2001
x + 239 pp., p/b, ISBN 0-906584-51-3
Reviewed by: Dr Colin B. Lessell
Essentially a detailed extraction and discussion of 129 cases from the records of this eminent practitioner, this is certainly one of the most pleasing and illuminating books I have seen on homeopathy in the last few years. The application of remedies to a wide range of clinical entities in general medical practice is described, both in place of and in conjunction with orthodox medicines. Although the cases are largely classified in relation to the systems of the body (cardiovascular, neurological etc.), proper homeopathic criteria for prescription are discussed appropriately. For example, four cases (Nos. 75-78) of Crohn's are described at some length in the chapter 'Gastrointestinal disease', but they are concisely and pointedly prefaced by a general dissertation on the homeopathic treatment of this condition, including how such therapy should be instituted in those already on orthodox medication (valuable comments, indeed, for those who wish to avoid disaster and medico-legal confrontation!). Here we learn that the author's experience suggests that the most effective constitutional remedies are Phosphorus, Phosphoricum acidum, Nux vomica, Lycopodium and Pulsatilla; whilst the most effective 'local' [sic] medicines are Podophyllum and Aloe.
Additionally, there are some fairly useful general introductory chapters on 'getting started' and first aid, whilst the final one is essentially a tribute to Hahnemann. This book is certainly going to be a winner with those new to homeopathy, whether they be physicians or otherwise - and, quite frankly, it is also a good read for most of us who might consider ourselves reasonably competent. The editors must be complimented on doing such a fine job. The price of Ł20.00 is quite reasonable for the distillation of a life's work and study, and nobody should ask to borrow my copy!

I have two Windows 7 laptops on my WiFi network. Each has approx. 500GB of data (primarily photos, songs and Word/PDF files). I also have an old desktop computer (2GHz, 2GB RAM, 1.5TB drive, network card) running Windows XP Home.
I'd like to setup a fool-proof backup solution that:
1) creates a mirror image of all my files on each Win 7 laptop (one for each laptop with a browsable file tree structure mirroring the source drive), 2) every night, updates backup over WiFi by adding/removing any new files, 3) requires minimal maintenance, and 4) is free, or as free as possible, while meeting the criteria above
I have looked at a number of choices but am overwhelmed by the solutions offered by most how-to sites. I am not averse to formatting the desktop and loading a Linux build dedicated to backup management - but I'm looking for simplicity and ease of use in the solution, not bells and whistles that make day to day management a pain (e.g., don't need versioning).

Intel says touchscreen Ultrabooks will tip up next year
Consumers will want to touch Windows 8
CHIPMAKER Intel has hinted that touchscreen enabled Ultrabook laptops will tip up next year with the introduction of Windows 8.
Next year's Ultrabook selection will offer Intel's Ivy Bridge processor and will also feature touchscreen control, according to Tom's Hardware. This makes some sense, considering that the Windows 8 user interface has a tile system similar to that of the Windows Phone operating system.
Intel CEO Paul Otellini said at the Intel Capital Global Summit, "Starting with Windows 8, you [will] have a mainstream operating system incorporating touch."
"Our view is that in the ultrabook lines, touch is a pretty critical enabler. When users see that new Windows interface, they're going to want to touch it. If the screen does nothing, you [will] have disappointed [the] consumer."
We saw an Ultrabook running Windows 8 at this year's Intel Developer Forum in September. However, it did not have a touchscreen and was demonstrated using just the keyboard and mouse. The demonstrator was keen to point out the fact that it worked fine without touchscreen support.
The Ivy Bridge Ultrabooks we saw at IDF didn't have Windows 8 or touchscreen support either, but apparently they were just on stage to look pretty.
Otellini said that to achieve this, "we have to get touch to a lower cost. This is particularly important, as we move to the launch of Windows 8. The iPad and the iPhone have made touch a paradigm." He also said that Chipzilla will invest in this area with the Ultrabook Fund. µ

When your child goes to the hospital, brothers and sisters may feel afraid, worried, or confused. They are often afraid simply because they do not know what to expect, and may imagine the worst. They will also have to deal with being away from one or both parents, missing their brother or sister, or having to stay with other family or friends. The following are some of the common feelings siblings may have during this time:

The Phil Jones Bass Double Four BG-75 Bass Combo Amplifier is a single channel bass amp with an incredible compact design and remarkable tone! Dual 4 inch speakers pump out a sound so huge it's hard to believe it's coming from such a small amp. The Double Four amp also features an auxiliary input for ipad/ipod, mp3 or drum machine, 3 band EQ, headphone out jack and a line out for recording. Phil Jones designed the amp to be ideal for both 4 and 5 string basses.
The cabinet of the Double Four BG-75 amp may be as small as a shoe box but it is built to the same standards of all PJB cabinets, heavily braced internally and damped with acoustic damping materials to prevent cabinet coloration that can kill the true sound of your instrument. What you hear from the Double Four is the closest you can get to how your instrument actually sounds!
The Enclosure
So how do you get huge bass sound from a small speaker cabinet? Phil Jones applied their vast experience to an even smaller driver just 4 inches across. Using their extensive R&D facility which includes the largest anechoic chamber in the bass amp industry and the KLIPPEL transducer measurement system, they were able to develop the perfect 4 inch loudspeaker.
They analyzed the neodymium magnetic system, the cone behavior at all frequencies in 3D representation, cone suspension, frame etc. until they had achieved a transducer beyond what anyone would have ever thought possible. Then Phil Jones looked at the acoustic loading using the acoustic simulation software and calculated exactly the full power cone displacement at every frequency.
Phil Jones designed a custom Rectangular Auxiliary Low Frequency Radiator (RALFR). That is a pneumatically coupled radiator loaded to the rear of the two 4 inch speakers that operates at the lowest bass frequencies only. It augments the output of the loudspeakers at frequencies from 30 to 150 Hz. It also reduces the cone excursion of the speakers allowing greater power handling.
The proprietary PJB NeoPower 4-inch speakers are full frequency range to the highest audio frequencies. Not only does this give greater clarity and transparency to your instrument but also gives a high fidelity sound to any backing track fed into the auxiliary input.
Each speaker is fed with its own Pulse Width Modulation PWM amplifier. PWM amplifiers are extremely efficient compared to more traditional analog solid state amplifiers converting more electrical energy to power the speakers instead of getting hot. Heat in electrical circuits is the enemy to reliability and since the amp is running at lower working temperature, the Double Four amp will give years of service long after other amps have faded away. By using dual amplifiers one to each speaker, the bass control is greatly improved since the damping factor is doubled.
