Julia Steyn is driving GM in new direction
As head of GM's Maven personal-mobility brand, Julia Steyn is in charge of a business venture that GM considers strategically critical.

The fund made back almost twice the amount it invested 16 months ago in Magaw Medical LLC, a Fort Worth, Texas, company founded by two nurse anesthetists to develop a cost-effective laryngoscope system for examining the throat and vocal cords.
As head of GM's Maven personal-mobility brand, Julia Steyn is in charge of a business venture that GM considers strategically critical.
The online database is launched at Tuesday's event to honor the 100 Most Influential Women in Michigan.
The Detroit-based Wall Street executive stresses the importance of private capital to help supplement the funding gap for improvements as well as exposing women to STEM-related careers.
Crain's will honor the 2016 Most Influential Women in Michigan at a June 21 event at Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi.
Ciura, principal of Bloomfield Hills-based commercial real estate and retail consulting firm CC Consulting LLC, was one of 26 women named as Real Estate Forum's Top Women in Retail this year.
Patricia "Patti" Poppe will take the reins of Consumer Energy as the company returns to a traditional but under-the-radar role "utilities" had for many years in Michigan — economic development.
Not that they have a lot of free time, but when they do, here's how the 100 Most Influential Women fill it.
We view all of our honorees over the years as part of a "legacy list," some of whom should be considered as prospects for corporate and nonprofit board service.
That's why Crain's Detroit Business has joined with the Michigan Women's Commission and Deloitte, among others, to create a path to help more companies find talent for their boards.
The new study by Grand Valley State University of Fortune 500 boards shows a correlation between board diversity and healthier profits, and Michigan companies have ample opportunity to improve board diversity, the study's co-author says.
Cindy Goodaker succeeds Jacqueline Wiggins, who left the professional development and networking organization for women this month.
Even with the highest turnover rate among chief executive officers in the world in more than a dozen years, women captured less than 3 percent of new CEO positions, the lowest since 2011, according to a PwC study of 2,500 global public companies.

Our last trip to China involved a redemption of 55K frequent flier miles for business over and 67.5K miles for first class on the return, as that was all that was available. That is the second time I booked a segment of international first class. The first time I did it was Sydney to Los Angeles and I did not see the added value. When we decided to come home early from China, we were thrilled that they found us seats back in business class. That was all we needed. We didn't need to meet "Dom" and his buddies. Just get us home in comfort.
Let's be honest here: Most of us can't and won't pay for first class seats with CASH. In all reality, most of us can't and won't pay CASH for business class international, either. It is just too expensive and makes no sense. But if you can get business class for miles (which is way out of our price range anyway), why pay the extra miles for first class?
As for using miles for domestic itineraries, Hell Yes I Do. I am accumulating miles on credit card sign-ups for under .2 cents each. That is less than one quarter of one cent each. If I can use 25K miles and fly from Savannah to Sioux Falls and save $600+ Hell Yes, count me in for redeeming for domestic coach. I'm not trying to impress anybody. Just get me from point A to point B. I didn't buy a new car until I was 60 and the suntan I got on my used sailboat felt just a good as the guy's with the new boat. I just didn't have a boat payment.
I love my wife, the Katybug. She has set some pretty reasonable guidelines for our travel. If the trip is over three hours, try for domestic first class and if international long haul, get business class redemptions. My guidelines for domestic paid tickets is to get at least two cents per mile and always leave enough miles in each airline account for at least one international business class award.
Hotel redemptions: I redeem for regular rooms and mostly at three or four star hotels. No suites for me unless I receive them for free based on my status with a hotel program. If I find curly hairs behind the bathroom door or toothpaste spit on the sink drain, I'm outta there. If it's clean, quiet, and safe, I'm a happy camper. The St. Regis and Conrads make me feel like I need to wear shoes. I'm a flip flop and Waffle House kinda guy.
Here's my summary of travel suggestions for the extreme ends of the scale:
If you are forcing your partner to endure coach travel for extended hours of time on international itineraries, consider moving up to business class. You are just using miles anyway.

Harley Quinn's Greatest Moments from "Batman: The Animated Series"
TV, Comic Books
There is only one "n" in Winick.
No nicks shall be won.
How "Nth" of him.
no waiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii1!!!!!!!!!!1
And no 'rarebit' in 'rabbit'. Fiend.
There's also an "e" in Kelley Puckett, 3…
Duly noted! Thanks!
One "n".
So true. Well said. I appreciate your honesty.
Contrary to popular belief, there is no 'win' in 'winick'
It is "Why Nick?" not "Win Nick!"
There's also only one "n†in both inept and hackneyed.
Are we talking about the same Winick? I thought we were talking about David Winnick, the MP from Walsall North.
But there are still two D's in JuDD, right?
But – I'm never quite sure where to put the 'E' in Owsley/Owsely
Still doesn't make him a good writer.
5 "d"s in Judd the Dudd.
Also? Charles Schulz. Not "Schultz." How famous does he have to get for more people to get it right?
Still doesn't make him a good writer.
Even changing his name to Priest couldn't do that

Try these fresh ideas for quick and healthy midday meals.
Take Your Healthy Diet to Work
Eat Breakfast for Lunch
Try incorporating your favorite breakfast foods into your lunch for a change of pace:
- Top a toasted whole wheat English muffin with goat cheese and sliced strawberries or almond butter and sliced bananas.
- Bring a packet of plain oatmeal, add it to a bowl, and stir in hot water or milk. Add ingredients like cinnamon, dried cherries, raisins, almonds, or pecans.
Bring Salad in a Jar
If you like hearty salads but find they often get soggy when you transport them to work, consider investing in a wide mouth, quart-sized Mason jar. Salad ingredients will stay fresh in a sealed, refrigerated jar for hours.
First, put your favorite salad dressing at the bottom of the jar.
Next, add several layers of ingredients like cherry tomatoes, peppers, carrots, cucumbers, mushrooms, corn, broccoli, black beans, chickpeas, hard-boiled eggs, or orzo.
You can include any leftover cooked veggies and grains you have on hand. At the very top, add greens like baby spinach or chopped romaine lettuce.
Be sure to keep the layer of greens separated from the dressing at the bottom so it stays dry.
When you're ready to eat, just shake the jar to coat the whole salad with dressing.
Spice Up Your Sandwich
Make your usual sandwiches more flavorful by adding condiments like chipotle mustard or spinach and artichoke hummus.
Instead of the usual cold cuts, try smoked salmon or a turkey burger. And instead of sandwich bread, use whole wheat tortillas, pita bread, or ciabatta rolls.
Keep It Simple
Remember that bringing your lunch doesn't have to be overwhelming. If you can't assemble a whole lunch in advance on some days, Brown says you can still take healthy ingredients from home.
For example, bring some leftover chicken or salmon and add it to a pasta salad that you buy at work.
For variety, Jackson Blatner suggests trying out one new lunch recipe each week. Pack that dish for lunch 2 or 3 days that week and bring leftovers from dinner on the other days. "That way, you can streamline the process of shopping for and preparing your meals," she says.

Eric Feng
by Josh Rubin
on 21 June 2005
I just finished reading the second drop of Asian Culture Quarterly, Theme Magazine. Twice as good as the first issue, there were a few stories that really struck my fancy. Firstly, Eric Feng (a.k.a. Feric) is an illustrator of infinite evolutionary possibilities. Each of his creatures is meticulously crafted with translucent layers that reveal the sometimes inner workings that explore the hybridization of nature and machine.
His new book, Fevolution: The Art of Eric Feng, is available at Amazon.

PCAR is losing money
Looks as if they might be bought out by a Swedish outfit that is owned by a China company out of Mexico, whose corporate office is in CUBA, and run by a drunk Polish baker who was just released from a Turkish prison for tax evasion in Canada.and he is facing underwear laundring charges in Brazil.
and has ties to a gang from south central L. A. that is backed by Korean midget wrestlers and Daisy Duke short pant wearing Basketball players from India !!!!!! I WOULD NOT TRUST THEM, iam just saying watch out !!!!!!!!! thats the least i can do for my PCAR pals. i have to watch all of my stock very carefully right now. Good Day to all
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Even Fonzo makes more sense than this guy.
Yep, he too, a.k.a. Zamb, is a former PB UAW guy. Funny thing how he and his brothers seem to share similar writing skills and intellect on this Board.... With each of their posts, PCAR's prudent decision in ending ties with them is confirmed... IMO

Street Fighter X Tekken 1.04 Patch Hit By Game-Breaking Bug
Written Thursday, May 17, 2012 By Richard WalkerView author's profile
Keeping a knife away from fire is generally advisable in the real world, and following the release of the latest 1.04 patch for Street Fighter X Tekken, we'd recommend doing the same where Rolento's knife is concerned. Although the patch fixes a range of bugs and other issues, bizarrely, it's introduced a game-breaking one.
What happens is, the game freezes when Rolento's knife comes into contact with a fireball during his Stinger projectile move, which sounds like some sort of a joke, but isn't. Shoryuken reported on the glitch, after a number of users encountered it across both consoles with all varieties of fireball projectiles. Even fire punches do the trick.
So, keep Rolento's knife away from fireballs at all costs. We don't know what he's doing trying to cut a fireball anyway. Surely that doesn't work. Check out the YouTube videos below to see the SFxTK glitch. Hopefully, it'll be fixed soon.

This question already has an answer here:
I am currently using Windows XP SP3 and want to install Windows 7 on my computer. It has 2 partitions, and I kept all the important data on the partition which doesn't contain OS, so does installing the new Windows works the same like reinstalling the same Windows on the computer? What I mean is, does it only format the partition that contains OS, the one I choose to install the new OS?

"A Popular Wine Producing Picturesque Village" Vasa by greekcypriot
Vasa Travel Guide: 8 reviews and 34 photos
Vasa is the fifth wine-producing village just 35 kms away from Limassol. It is found on the slope of the Troodos range.
Its name is linked to the ancient Greek word ?Vassa or Vissa? meaning woody valley.
Nowadays the residents are only 120.
The first settlers of the village are said to have come from the Peloponnese in Greece coming from ancient Arcadia.
It is a very beautiful village with locals trying to keep their authentic traditions, restoring their old houses, and growing tourism in their village.
I have found very hospitable people, and seen the Greek flag waving in many house gardens which was a joyful surprise for me.
There are two very significant caves in Vasa, -the cave of two apostles which I give more information in the tips.
There are two or three local restaurants in the village, and I highly recommend it to people who want to feel the authentic Cypriot hospitality, people who are interested in visiting ancient churches and museums, and Agro tourism in general.
I have more info in the tips.
- Pros:A Beautiful village not to be missed!
- Cons:I have not found a single con to state for this place here.
- In a nutshell:A significant little village with two museums, caves and loving people!

MoveOn launches VideoVets.
MoveOn and VoteVets have teamed up on a video project called VideoVets, to highlight the voices of U.S. soldiers and military families:
The administration tries to call anyone who criticizes their policy in Iraq 'anti-troop,' but the interviews below show that 'supporting the troops' does NOT mean supporting an endless war. The voices of these veterans and military families are missing from the debate in Washington. Together we can make sure they become a vital part of the national dialogue around ending the war.
You watch the videos and tell us what you think. Then, Academy Award winning director Oliver Stone will turn it into a TV ad-spreading this message even further.
Watch one of the videos, from Army Sgt. John Bruhns, an Iraq war veteran:

Released: Mar 01st, 2001
Running Time: 81
Director: Jerome Tanner
Company: Legend Video

Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
The box cover should help it move.
Farmboy Evan Stone chats up a sheep, and then stumbles on Diamond 4ever and Dillion Day having a little straight-to-anal ho'down outdoors. Seems that a computer convention is coming to town, and some of the geeks are going to be staying at the farm. Farmgirls Gwen Summers, Shaena Steel and Vivian Valentine welcome these gents into more than just their homes, while two of their girlfriends back in the city decide to track their men down, and let's just skip the rest of the plot, this ain't Gone with the Wind, after all. The technical end of this production is up to par, and the sex is solid throughout. There's some good oral between Joel Lawrence and Vivian Valentine, and the pairing of Dale DaBone and Shaena Steel in the barn is okay as well, utilizing a few creative positions. The threeway between Stone, Lola and Tasha Hunter is the standout scene, though, with some toy action added to the mix. Do your customers a favor: Tell them not to bother trying to follow the story line; it's far too aggravating for the human mind to comprehend.

If you're surfer Cody Iddings, you spent it with your son, catching some waves in San Diego. But Iddings's son happens to have something of a jump start on surfing, compared to other kids: He's not even three years old. (Though he presumably didn't have as much of a head start as Kristina Olivares's kid, who was already surfing while in the womb.)
Both the elder and younger Iddings have a flair for surfing: In another video, Cody even teaches his son the ol' "hang loose" gesture.
Here's to dads and children everywhere getting together this summer for their favorite activities, whether they involve hanging ten or not.

- An ISBN is the 10 or 13 digit number, usually printed on the back of a book with a bar code, that serves as a unique identifier for the book.
- Searching by ISBN is the best way to search because it will get you the exact title and edition that you need.
- Many professors include the ISBN on their syllabi or in their course management system.
If you don't have the ISBN, try a title or author search.
Title search
- Enter all words in the title you are looking for. The search engine will try to find books that have all the words you entered in the title. Leave out words such as "a," "an," or "the."
- When including edition, use numeric values. For example, "1st edition" instead of "first edition."
Author search
- Enter all or part of the author name you are looking for.
- You do not need to enter a first name, but if there are a lot of books by authors with the same last name, it may help to narrow the results.
- You can enter the name in any order such as "John Smith" or "Smith John." Avoid using a comma since it has a special meaning in the search.
Keyword search
- You can search by keyword but this approach is not recommended as it will likely return a large set of results.
- If you want to search by keyword, try a combination of author and keyword. For example, "Warren Accounting" where "Warren" is the author and "Accounting" is the keyword.
To refine your results, use the filtering/sorting options
- Filter options include product type and discipline area. Sort options include alphabetical sort (ascending or descending) and copyright year (ascending or descending).

~Beth Comstock, SVP GE
In 1968, Tom Fowler made a promise to passion based businesses. He would use his drive and visionary outlook to change the design and advertising industry. Tom believed all companies who believed what he believed, no matter the size, should have access to engaging graphic design and impact photography. For the next 24 years Tom lived up to that promise through Advertising Graphics providing high-end sales collateral for 'good times' conversion kits in the van and truck industry. By 1992, a shift in company culture transformed Advertising Graphics into The Fowler Group as they continued to pioneer captivating design and powerful photography for industrial corporations, home accessories and passion based businesses. Today, his son Pat has taken over the business and continues the legacy and foundation his father set out to accomplish 47 years ago with a renewed focus on storytelling and finding the authentic heart of our clients.

Great post!! The humor is refreshing!
On a more serious note: I am a Real Estate Broker with several offices and many agents. In this day of short sales (both hardship and strategic) and foreclosures we are consistently seeing clients walk away with damaged credit. A recent national stat shows 25% of the population have a credit score of 620 and under. Will FICO eventually be looking into this and possibly changing their scoring formula in the future?
And a whopping 40% have a score between 750 and 850 (which means that 35% are between 620 and 750).
It would be nice if everyone was above average , and it may be possible when not grading relatively.

#10 Aug 8, 2009
Does anyone know who hit them? I've heard it was a Caskey and I know several of them so I was just wondering. Was it a pickup or a camaro?
#11 Aug 8, 2009
No it wasn't a Caskey that hit them Bob Caskey and John Houck were riding with them.
#12 Aug 8, 2009
As I understand it the other vehicle was coming toward them at a great rate of speed (over 100MPH as estimated by police)and swerved suddenly as it approached Ronnie, Bill, Bob, and John. Ronnie and Bill were hit head on.... Bob was also hit and even though his bike sustained damage he was able to regain control. John, who was last, was able to stop in time to avoid the speeding vehicle. Ronnie was dead before he got to the hospital..... Bill died at UK Med Centre after hours of extensive surgery... Bob and John were unhurt. As many of you know, Ronnie and Bill were both accomplished, skilled motorcyclists, with many decades of experience. They were two of the best riders I have ever had the pleasure of riding with. They were also my very good friends and I will miss them greatly. Please pray for their families and for John and Bob because they witnessed the whole horrid event. As far as I am concerned there is no punishment to great for the driver who killed them......
#13 Aug 8, 2009

Thanks, bless their hearts to have to witness such a tragedy is just terrible.

Since: Aug 09
#16 Aug 8, 2009
I just heard about the accident a couple hours ago from a neighbor. I just can't believe it, Ronnie was always so safety conscious. What did Bill ride? A silver BMW... maybe a KLR? I think I'd met him at Ronnie's last summer. Does anyone know which bike Ronnie was riding? How deplorable it is for such good men to be taken from their families & friends by such a careless act. Ronnie & I had talked for two years about riding together & just never did. Now we never will. Ride on Ronnie & Bill
#17 Aug 8, 2009
where did it happen?
#18 Aug 8, 2009
Tis is horrorible and tradgic, I just looked at the obits on the Ashland Independent web site and it stated that Ronnie Miller was 64 and Pud Walker was 62, and myself and my family will be praying for the families involved, I thought this was the Ronnie Miller I went to school with but that can't be because the Ronnie Miller I went to school and myself are in our 30's. If anybody knows any of the families please give a clue because the miller might be a family memeber and I have not been informed yet and would like to know for I live in another state.

Yours, Mine, Ours
This is mildly interesting:
My two initial reactions: in the case of invention, it is not unlikely that two artists could stumble upon a similar melody at relatively the same time, or that one could be inspired by the other. And though I would generally side with the author of the original tune, I must admit that the Coldplay song started playing on a loop in my head the moment I saw the iPod commercial in which it is featured. Whereas I can't remember the Creaky Boards tune for the life of me. So, the melodies are different enough that one employs poppier turns of phrase and more distinctive fluctuations between the notes. I'm not a huge fan of Coldplay in the first place but will admit to liking a handful of songs. Yet it was one of their most lugubrious, cloying and my least favorite song of theirs, "Fix You," that I sang every morning when I awoke for a week straight (which, frankly, seems like a more valid reason to sue Coldplay). Anyhow, decide for yourself.
This is even more interesting:
On the topic of copyright issues, the song 'Happy Birthday' has both a fascinating origin and subsequent life story. The song began as "Good Morning to All" as composed by schoolteacher Mildred J. Hill and her sister Patty in the late 19th Century. However, the melody was not entirely written by them in the first place but rather borrowed from a variety of popular songs at the time, a practice that was not uncommon within the oral or folk traditions. It was children who ultimately played with and changed the lyrics to "Happy Birthday to you," as they had begun singing the song at parties. By the time the Hill sisters registered a copyright of the song in 1935, they claimed both the melody and the birthday lyrics as their own. In the subsequent years many artists and companies were slapped with copyright infringement lawsuits or forced to pay high rates for the use of the song. From Western Union, whose singing telegrams often included "Happy Birthday" (incidentally, it was the singing telegram that most likely spread the popularity of the tune across the country) to Igor Stravinsky, who was reprimanded after including several bars of the song in one of his symphonies.
But where the story really gets good is when Time Warner purchased the copyright of "Happy Birthday" in 1988. In the mid 1990s, their publishing company, who collects the royalties, sent a letter to the Girl Scouts and other summer camps informing them that they would now need to purchase the rights to the song in order to perform it. The penalty for a single, unauthorized performance of the song would range from $5,000 or six days in jail to $100,000 and a year in jail. In the end, after several camps ceased singing the song and many others issued formal complaints, the publishing company rescinded its request saying that it would no longer charge non-profit organizations for use of the song.
This all means that sometime during our childhoods, we likely broke the law whilst singing what we thought to be an authorless tune.
From Kembrew McLeod's Freedom of Expression:
Copyright law defines a "public performance" as something that occurs "at a place open to the public, or at any place where a substantial number of persons outside of a normal circle of family and its social acquaintances is gathered." For instance, around a campfire.
Fortunately, these days, for those of us who merely want a melodious and traditional way of wishing one another well as we turn the page on another year, the song" Happy Birthday" is no longer under copyright protection. Over half a century of ridiculousness has now come to and end. You can read all about that here.

I completely side with the Creaky Boards guy on this one. Not to be a total stickler, but we're talking about one of the biggest bands in the world freely "borrowing" most of the song structure from a little-known band and making a big hit out of it. Admittedly, I do not know all of the facts, such as whether or not the originators were credited for this, but it certainly seems to indicate a rather shallow creative pool on Coldplay's part (a band, mind you, that Radiohead has accused for years of stealing their sound, watering it down, and making it "pop.")
I must also wholly disagree with Carrie's sentiment here; it doesn't seem fair to credit Coldplay with making the song more memorable. Coldplay can afford world-class production, through which a melody like the one they seem to have taken can be improved upon and made more "catchy." Sure, it sounds nicer, but that was certainly intentional and due to their producers' music-savvy.
I feel bad for the Creaky Boards in this case, too, simply because Coldplay's actions here seem more than a little predatory. If, as a more small-time act, your music is subject to being taken from you, it seems indicate a vicious circle where small acts stay small and big acts stay big.
There will always be creative borrowing and the impact of music on other musicians will and should freely take place (the documentary DIG! features a great commentary on the creative interaction of a bigger and more popular Dandy Warhols vis a vis the smaller and more troubled Brian Jonestown Massacre), but this just seems so much more intentional and profit-motivated, not to mention weak. Agree/disagree?
Author Jonathan Lethem wrote an interesting and fairly comprehensive article on the issue of plagiarism, authorship and the "anxiety of influence" (published in Harper's last year).
While in my own work I try to be faithful to an accurate citation method, the article does make me start to see citation as something linked pretty strongly to commerce (which is not something I want to be focused on when writing). I really don't know what to think.
For anyone interested, here's the link:
I really don't hear much of a similarity between the two songs. It's no "My Sweet Lord"/"He's So Fine." And man, that Creaky Boards guy just sounds insufferable and whiny.
I wonder if the Happy Birthday rule applies if you sing in another language. In French class in high school, we'd belt out a rousing rendition of Bonne Anniversaire a Toi.
Futurama fell victim to "Happy Birthday." In the episode where Bender flushes Nibbler down the toilet, Nibbler has a birthday. The employees at Planet Express sing their Happy Birthday song, but it's not "Happy Birthday."
What day is today?
It's Nibbler's birthday.
What a day for a birthday.
Let's all have some cake.
And of course at the end of the song Fry says, "And you smell like one, too!" The writers for Futurama had to use a different song because "Happy Birthday" was copyrighted. I searched for a video clip at You Tube. You'd think that You Tube would have this freakin' thing, but no.
And this is why whenever you go to a restaurant and the waiters and waitresses come out to wish someone happy birthday they sing that irritating monstrosity with the clapping of hands and whatnot. Thank you Time Warner for ruining my life.
Your copyright-geekiness isn't so well-developed, alas. In a new, compelling paper, "Copyright and the World's Most Popular Song", GWU Law School Prof. Robert Bruaneis shows that "Happy Birthday to You" is no longer under copyright protection due to a variety of complicated minutiae. See: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1111624
So, sing, perform, whatev you want, girl.
The post has been amended to reflect the new law. Thanks for providing an update. -CB
Umm, what about singing Happy Birthday by Altered Images?
As for the Futurama scene, you can see that on the DVD. Perhaps that is more of an issue of Twentieth Century Fox not wanting their property posted.
If I were Mr. Creaky Boards Leadsinger I'd be worrying about a lawsuit from the 70s pornstar who originated that cheesy 'stache.
Enough, indyrockers! Enough with the whimsical facial hair.
You can read an entertaining treatise on IP and public domain (in comic book style!) here:
Another example of melodic wizardry that follows the same II-V-I chord progression with hipster vocal noodling:
Some Things Must Go This Way - Paloalto
Coldplay took the entire lead melody of a Kraftwerk song, repackaged it as a guitar-driven ballad, and a legion of young fans is never the wiser. I personally think we should not trust them.
Many, many years ago...1997 maybe...my old band opened for Modest Mouse in Green Bay with an audience of about a dozen people. Maybe within a year or so after I came across a live recording of Dark Center Of The Universe in it's beginning stages and it had the exact same melody as one of our songs we played at that show. Coincidence? Maybe. I really don't care. I can see how it's possible a song melody could get stuck in your head and be reborn later in what an artist feels is an original song. I wish I had a digital recording of that song as well as the computer smarts to be able to share it but i've only got it on cassette (remember when cassettes were cool?).
I remember reading somewhere that Jethro Tull toured with the Eagles in the early 1970s, and every night they would play a jam song called "We Used to Know" with a very distinctive chord progression. Years later, the Eagles came out with "Hotel California" with a very similar chord progression. Guess which was the bigger hit?
I don't recall Ian Anderson being quite as petulant as the Creaky Boards guy--just saying with a laugh that he was still waiting for the royalties.
I like the Creaky Boards song much better.
My family and I have many reunions, and we sing lots of famous songs around the campfire. Are we going to get arrested and sued by the police? It's not like we're singing for profit. We're just doing it to have fun.
Coldplay isn't just ripping off one band. Those outfits and the drum are very Arcade Fire. That said what are you gonna do, ban him from your shows?
Coldplay has said themselves that they 'borrow' from other songs. Take 'Speed of Sound' off of their 2005 erlease X&Y for example - Chris Martin said that this track was originally an attempt to re-create Kate Bushs' "Running Up That Hill". They didn't re-create it, they ripped it off. Does it make it better because he is outright admitting that they have done this?
I think if we take a closer look at thier entire catalog we will find that they have 'borrowed' from somewhere on every track.
The first single 'Violet Hill' off of their latest album, again sounds strangely familiar to me. Kind of like the melody from 'Tusk' by Fleetwood Mac.
As the guy above said, they also took the entire lead melody of a Kraftwerk song, repackaged it as a guitar-driven ballad.
Maybe it's the mustache.
I agree with Creaky Boards guy that the songs are too similar. I wonder if his story that Coldplay guy was at his show has any truth to it. If so, I smell lawsuit.
Still, the mustache keeps me from warming up to this complaint.
Those songs are only mildly similar. They're well within the melodic margin of error. I'm not a Coldplay fan but c'mon.
I recently wrote a paper about file sharing for an English class. I've been following the whole file sharing issue ever since Napster, but I was afraid I would get written up for plagiarism because I have opinions that have been based on all the articles, books and blog posts I've read over the years. How do I acknowledge all the thoughts and opinions that helped me form my own opinions years after the fact? My point is that nothing is truly "original". Every thought, word and idea we have is based on something we've experienced before. In fact I probably stole this comment from someone else. Sorry. Music is based in numbers. If two people are told to come up with a combination of numbers that equal 25, eventually two people will come up with the same combination. Did the Creaky Boards plant a seed that Coldplay made into a hit? Possibly. Does Coldplay rip off other artists. Most definitely. Does anyone care? Well, the Creaky Boards do, but I'll bet if we look and listen hard enough we can find a Dandy Warhols song that sounds similar to the Creaky Boards. And I'll bet that song led to the Creaky Boards writing their song. Carrie is right, the Coldplay version is better. By better I mean that it's brighter, more poppy and generally fits better in an iTunes commercial. That's why Coldplay are who they are and why Creaky Boards are who they are. BTW, I got an A on the paper.
I'm one of those people who hears a riff in every song that sounds like another song
I see a look or an expression on somebody's face that reminds me of somebody else
they say that every song in existence has already been written
there are only so many notes, so many beats
and I can't believe that an artist like chris martin (I am a fan - but not a huge fan) really needs to take from the outside, he seems to have all that he needs within himself
so going against my grain of supporting the underdog - I just think that it falls under the category of random similar musicality (I think I may have made that up)
I just can't buy it and I don't want to buy into it
what about ripping off your own song, nickelback style?
have you heard this:
its crazy!
aaron sorkin tackles "happy birthday" back in the Sports Night days (and explained by the lovely Lisa Simpson):
both songs are terrible. boo hoo.
thought I'd tack this on to this post, but not really bothered if you add it on or not, it's really just fyi.
One of my favourite photographers - Amy Stein - has just posted that Sleater-Kinney, and specifically "light rail coyote" and "the woods" were an unconscious influence on her "Domesticated" series:
okay, I'd never heard either song before, and I kind of like both of them in that inoffensive, radio-friendly kinda way - but the problem is that now I have the mashup version of both stuck in my head. rather than one or the other... it's kinda both/ neither. not great.
carrie, your post sort of makes me want to finally check out coldplay's albums, which is something probably you nor I could've anticipated. great blog though!

I'm using 2.0 beta of the Extreme Video Plugin to include YouTube videos on my blog. It all worked perfectly, until a few days ago when all the videos stopped working (they are all from YouTube).
Where the video should be theres just a white box, the "View this video on YouTube" link on top of the video (which the plug generates) also stopped working.
The plugin works perfectly if I download the YouTube videos and then upload them to my server (and change the link from the YouTube one to my server). The prob with this is that some of the videos are around 10MB, which'll eat up my monthly bandwidth straight away (I'm on free hosting, so I don't get a lot of it).
Anyone else experiencing this prob or is it just me?

Alright, so I really liked this, and I'm looking forward to June 25th now. Your use of effects is top notch, and the incorporation of acoustic instruments at times is really something. It's clear that a lot of time has been put into this music.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Awsome man. Can you make a intro like this about 20 seconds long for our youtube channel? We do gaming let's plays.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
...I can wait.

Really not my thing, but I can tell you put a lot of work into this. The breaks with 'haywyre infinite available june 25' were rather distracting. You have talent - and pieced together a few short works I get that....but it really is the short works pieced together the way you present it. I can see how this could all be fused into one song.

Simple n Clean. Very nice. you could cut down on the piano a little.

Jeff Gordon is anxious after a recent glimpse of television pictures showed the surface at Darlington Raceway had turned gray, reminding him of the old track that ate up tires like a meat grinder before it was resurfaced in 2008.
If the abrasiveness is returning, that means the strategy of the 24 and crew chief Steve Letarte will change.
The old surface forced drivers to be patient and not abuse tires early in a run in order to have something left for the end. Cars would drop off 3.5 to 4 seconds a lap, making four-tire stops mandatory and taking a lot of strategy out of the game.
The new surface is silky smooth, causing little wear. Speeds last year were faster deeper into a run than they were at the beginning. Crew chiefs could decide whether to take two tires, four tires or go gas only to improve track position.
"I'll be curious to see it," Gordon said.
Goodyear officials maintain that the track hasn't changed much from last season, but if anybody can handle the change, it's Gordon.
The four-time Sprint Cup champion and current points leader has seven wins, 16 top-5s and 19 top-10s in 28 trips around the track nicknamed "Too Tough to Tame." Only David Pearson with 10 and Dale Earnhardt with nine have more wins.
Gordon won the last race on the old surface in 2007 and was third in the first race on the new surface last season.
The walls that come up on drivers faster than a sports car does a fully loaded tractor trailer on a steep incline don't intimidate him.
"It's a drivers' racetrack, and we have one of the most talented to ever sit in a stock car," Letarte said. "He knows how to get around it. He knows how to take care of new tires and make time on old tires. He's a very patient and smart driver.
"Some of that strategy is gone with the new surface, but it's all still the same with how you race there. As soon as you lose respect for it and treat it like another mile-and-a-half track you'll be in the wall or have a fender knocked in and you're in for a long night."
The new surface has made Darlington like most intermediate tracks when it comes to setups. But that's about as far as you can compare this 1.366-mile track in the sand hills of South Carolina to other tracks.
The egg shape and steep banking make it one of a kind. The famous "Darlington Stripe" -- the scrape down the side of the car earned primarily coming off the tight exits of Turns 2 and 4 -- hasn't gone away.
"Springs, shocks, everything like that, it's not like anything we used to run at Darlington," Letarte said. "But when you get there you really have to pay attention. Your spotter, driver, everybody has to be conservative. Five hundred miles down there is a long time."
Inexperienced drivers seldom win there. Just look at the list of all-time winners beyond Pearson, Earnhardt and Gordon: Darrell Waltrip, Bill Elliott, Cale Yarborough and Bobby Allison won five each.
"Experience and laps are pretty key there," said Gordon, who needs one more victory to tie Yarborough for fifth on NASCAR's all-time wins list with 83.
Five of Gordon's wins came in the Southern 500 run on Labor Day Weekend. The name of the race is coming back this season, meaning he can pass Yarborough for the all-time lead in that event.
But Yarborough isn't on Gordon's mind. Darlington is.
"The cars have changed, the speeds have changed and the asphalt has changed, but I don't believe the driver's thinking has changed one bit," Gordon said. "You race the track here, not the other competitors."
Having a car that can handle coming off Turns 2 and 4 is key. It's nearly impossible to have a setup perfect for both sides since 1 and 2 are narrower.
"We've had success at both ends of it," Letarte said. "It seems in the past if we get through 3 and 4 we have a good day. In 1 and 2 there is a lot of driver input -- how far you drive into the corner, how much you get off the gas, how much you play with the brake on the exit. There are a lot of driver tools.
"In 3 and 4 you just kind of roll off in there and you've got to make it to the corner smooth. It if doesn't make it to the corner it's slow."
Gordon agreed.
"It seems like 3 and 4 everything washes you to the wall in the middle," he said. "That's why you hit the wall. Even with the new surface it's the same thing.
"You can't be intimidated by the walls. You've got to put it out on the edge."
Just ask David Reutimann, who in two Darlington races has finished 33rd and 19th. He was so worn out after last year's race in which he had a problem with his cool box that he stepped up his entire workout program for this race alone.
"That place is challenging enough when everything is gong right," he said. "It's just a difficult, difficult track. I don't think words can even put in just how tough that place is."
It's all about compromise, whether it's the old surface or new one. Gordon has mastered that.
"Used to be you have to be careful being aggressive at the beginning of the run or you could really wear it out early," he said. "Now you can push harder at the beginning, but if you push too hard there is air pressure buildup, the tires get a lot of heat in them and that's where the handling goes away.
"I'm anxious to see if it's changed any."

One of my favorite eye shadow brushes. For powder products I get a softer look with this brush than with a naturaĺ hair brush. The synthetic bristles don't pack on powder as well as natural hair, and I wouldn't pack on pigments with this, but for an everyday soft look it works fine.
The bristles are super soft which is very very important for me
You can also use the pointed tip to smudge eyeshadow or the sides to do the outer V, you can use it with concealer, with cream and liquid products like applying the eye primer and you can do a little bit of blending with it too. it's affordable, I just love it.

This brush works well for applying all over the lid and into the crease, but the shape isn't ideal for blending. The bristles are soft and don't fall out and it picks up just enough product. Plus, it's budget-friendly and eco-friendly!

I really like this brush. It´s so soft, picks up product really well and there´s multiple ways to use it. I like it especially for applying highlighter underneath my brows. It has this little pointy tip at the end, and at first I though it was a bit weird but now I actually really like it. It makes it even easier to give your brows a defined look, and it also works very well for applying eyeshadow in the crease. It´s just such a bargain and I´m looking forward to try new ecotools brushes! the mac ones are great, but they´re just too expensive for me!

This is my favorite eyeshadow brush. It applies eyeshadow beautifully & blends it well. It's also very soft and doesn't shed. Really the only eyeshadow brush i need and very reasonably priced. I think I paid $5 for it.

This is the best eye brush ever. It is soft and dense, and does the job of a flat shader brush, a crease brush and a fluffy brush all in one. It seriously is one of the very very few brushes that made the cut when I had a big makeup cull recently.
I happily sold off all my MAC brushes, but this gem had to stay.
This brush together with the ecotools angled brush are the only ones I need on a daily basis for my eye makeup

This is a wider, fluffier shadow brush with a rounded, tapered tip, so it has much more flexibility than a shading, crease, or blending brush. I'm pleasantly surprised that for it's larger size, it's so easy to control and can do detail work really well. If you hold it and use the tip, you can use it as a crease brush or to highlight, you can use it to pack on shadow as a shader, you could probably even use it to conceal if you really wanted to. I have tons of brushes, but on lazy days I've done entire eye looks just using this brush and they turned out great. Just like all the Ecotools brushes it's incredibly soft, picks just the right amount of product, and applies like a dream. And the price is amazing--$5.49, I think? at Ulta. I have about 5 or 6 Ecotools brushes and they're all amazing. Love these! You got to try them.

This makeup brush is AMAZING and I almost bought the elf brush instead of this one but I'm really glad I didn't. :) this is great for packing on eyeshadow AND blending so buying two of these will do. Really recommend this, it's pretty cheap for a brush like this and it's environmental freindly.
