Mix Roundup
With so much good new music coming out all the time it's hard to keep up, even if you're fully in tune the with the right blogs and websites. An interesting and often frustrating part of contemporary electronic music culture is that in the age of singles and EPs so many amazing tracks either lack a proper release, or are exclusives to top DJs and producers for months before they are available to the general public. I find the best way to keep in touch with the direction and sound of my favourite artists is to jam out all the latest mixes; this is where new material is premiered, and where I can gauge my own style against that of the DJs/producers I respect the most, to make sure I'm always keeping it fresh and interesting. Here are my top five mixes at the moment, from UK-based Jackmaster, Ramadanman, Greena (pictured above), Deadboy, and Germany's Motor City Drum Ensemble.

Four years after the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina, the provision of certain health services to those affected remains a problem, concluded the Government Accountability Office (GAO) in 2 reports issued in July.
The GAO said that barriers to mental health services for children persist in greater New Orleans mostly due to a lack of transportation for patients, competing family priorities, and fear of stigmatization (http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d09563.pdf). Hiring and retaining primary care clinicians also remains a challenge (http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d09588.pdf). In both instances, however, federal grants are helping to address these problems.

Located in one of the best and most unusual pieces of public transportation anywhere in the world, the Lift Club is a small, hidden nightclub with seriously good views over Lisbon's center. The Santa Justa Elevator is the 1902 engineering-creation of Raul Ponsard, an apprentice to Gustave Eiffel who designed the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The elevator in Lisbon is a beautiful structure – and very useful in that it whisks you quickly from the downtown Baixa area up the steep hill to Carmo Square and the Chiado district.
At its top is the Bella Lisa Elevador Pizzeria restaurant, which on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturday nights after midnight becomes the Lift Club. The space is small so they only allow in around 300 people a night. The secret to getting through the door is to dress well, charm the doorman, or try to get yourself on the list through their Facebook page (Lift Club). Once you're inside it's all about the cocktails, the beautiful people, and that view. This is Lisbon at its most hip. Enjoy!

The blog of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation
Librarians from across the country are gathering in'Miami today to discuss the best ways libraries can meet community information needs.
The event is part of Knight Foundation's Library Initiative, which is led by Knight's Jorge Martinez and helps expand residents' digital access by boosting libraries' online capacity in 27 'communities.
As Knight Foundation President and CEO Alberto Ibarügen said in his welcome remarks:
Many Americans, easily a third of the country, still lack broadband access. Yet we are living in a world where the lack of digital access makes you a second class citizen socially, economically and even politically. But libraries, as you know, were sitting right there, right at the core of communities, right at the heart of knowledge dissemination and, perhaps most importantly, were trusted. Trusted by people to be neutral and interested only in the education of our communities. So, my colleague Jorge Martínez suggested we take up the challenge and have tried to form a digital alliance with library systems from around the country. This initiative is intended both to inform and engage citizens through the use of digital technology, and to provide libraries an opportunity for leadership in your communities.
Check back later this week for more on the conference.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Alabama taxpayers can wait until April 17th to file their 2006 income tax returns and pay taxes owed.
State Revenue Commissioner Tom Surtees announced that the state was pushing back its deadline to match the new federal deadline.
The Internal Revenue Service announced last week there would be a two-day reprieve for federal returns and payments. That's because April 15th, the usual tax day, falls on Sunday this year and April 16th is Emancipation Day, a legal holiday in the District of Columbia.
The IRS said holidays in the nation's capital have an impact nationwide.
Because of the federal change, Surtees said he signed an order authorizing extra filing and payment time for individual income tax returns, whether filed electronically or on paper.

"It is our job to be holy, to be holy in everything that we do, including when we vote," says Dr. Cafardi, who is the editor of Voting and Holiness: Catholic Perspectives on Political Participation (Paulist Press, 2011) and writes the introductory chapter. Other leading Catholic thinkers, teachers and writers contribute essays that explore the connection between politics and religion.
St. Anthony Messenger turned to Dr. Cafardi to ask how we got to the troubling state we're in and how we can surmount it. In particular, we wanted to know how Catholics and other well-meaning citizens can play a constructive role in the way they go through the 2012 campaigns—local, state, and, most important, national.
Though he is no political junkie ("I just follow the broad strokes"), Dr. Cafardi, 63, is an informed and committed Catholic who is eager to put the focus on the positive and to "get beyond campaign ads that seek to destroy the reputation, the character, and the good name of candidates. We need to advance the political discourse in our country. We cannot live in armed camps on either side of a great divide. Sometimes it feels we're headed that way," he laments.
Dr. Cafardi holds two legal degrees: one in canon law from the University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome, the other a civil law degree from the University of Pittsburgh. Today, as a faculty member at Duquesne, he teaches courses such as Family Law as well as Taxexempt Organizations and Canon Law. He also serves as president of the faculty senate.
At the invitation of the U.S. bishops, he was an original member of its National Review Board for the Protection of Children and Young People and served as its chair (2004-5). He is the author of Before Dallas (Paulist Press, 2008), a history of the child sexual-abuse crisis in the Church in the United States. He is often called on to represent archdioceses, dioceses, and religious orders across the nation as a canon lawyer.

Should You Go with Your Gut?
Faced with the same set of choices on different occasions, most consumers choose the same thing again and again. Marketers rely on consumers' preference consistency to conduct some of their most important activities, such as customer relationship management and new product development. And research has shown that people like to believe that they make consistent decisions.
If it is clear that consumers are consistent in their preferences, it is less clear what drives consistency and the decision-making process. The idea that decision making is driven primarily by conscious, cognitive mental processing — the rational man theory — has fast been ceding ground to the idea that people might make choices in ways that are less obviously rational. There's even a growing body of social science research showing that, in many instances, thinking too much can deteriorate the quality of decisions.
Professor Leonard Lee worked with On Amir of the University of California, San Diego and Dan Ariely of Duke University to investigate what drives the consistency of consumer preference. In particular, the researchers theorized that consistency might be the result of an emotionally driven decision-making process.
Lee and his coresearchers adopted a concept from economics — transitivity — to measure preference consistency. A person who chooses a hot dog over a chili dog and a chili dog over a turkey burger should, according to the preference consistency paradigm, choose a hot dog over a turkey burger. "But if I chose a turkey burger over a hot dog, that means my choices are not that consistent. I have violated transitivity," Lee explains.
To measure transitivity violations, Lee and his coresearchers showed subjects 10 different products in different pairings, repeating the choice sets several times. To evoke varying degrees of emotional processing and cognitive processing in subjects, the researchers presented the choices in different formats. For example, images elicit more emotional responses than words, so in one round subjects were shown choice sets in words while in another round they saw choice sets in images. Color photographs prompt a more emotional response than black and white photographs, so in some rounds choice sets were presented as color photos, while in other rounds choice sets were presented in black and white.
The researchers tracked how many times subjects violated transitivity in each choice set. When subjects chose from products presented in formats designed to provoke a more deliberative decision-making processes, they accumulated more transitivity violations: their choices were less consistent than when they chose from products presented in more emotionally evocative formats.
"You might think that carefully weighing pros and cons about a decision would lead to greater preference consistency. But we actually found the opposite," Lee says. "Decisions we make based on our emotions and our gut are actually more consistent."
For marketers, this means it might make more sense to use affective cues to elicit emotional processing in consumers, instead of merely listing all the features of a product, which could induce greater cognitive processing.
For consumers, the research implies that satisfaction might be linked to preference consistency — those things people choose consistently time and again are probably the things they will be most happy with. If that's the case, consumers might want to put greater trust in how they feel to help guide their purchasing decisions and invest less time weighing pros and cons.
That emotions actually play a significant role in decision making, Lee cautions, should not be conflated with the idea that relying on emotions means that humans are somehow irrational. "Evolutionary psychology suggests that our emotional systems have evolved over millions of years to help us deal with important decisions in our lives effectively and efficiently," he says. "That implies that our emotional system is functional and has a lot of value."
Leonard Lee is assistant professor of marketing at Columbia Business School.

Casinos Help Bring Six Zero Energy Homes to New Jersey
Six energy-efficient, solar-powered homes are about to be built in Atlantic City, New Jersey, thanks primarily to gambling revenues. The Casino Reinvestment Development Authority announced on November 25th that six homes in the Millennia Square neighborhood, developed by the authority, will "approach a zero net utility cost to homeowners." The authority was established by the state in 1984 to funnel a portion of gambling revenues into projects that revitalize Atlantic City and other parts of the state.
The six Cape Cod-style homes will each have two baths and three to four bedrooms. The project is being supported in part by the DOE State Energy Program's "Zero Energy Home" grant program and the New Jersey Clean Energy Program. Construction will begin by year-end. See the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority press release.
Energy-saving building technologies are gaining favor in the construction industry. One sign of this growing acceptance are the "Best Practice" Sustainability Awards, presented by the Sustainable Buildings Industry Council (SBIC). This year's awards, announced on November 22nd, went to the Cool Metal Roofing Coalition; Sun Plans, Inc., which markets designs for passive solar houses; Rural Advancement Foundation International - USA, which built an energy- efficient office building for its headquarters; and the Center for Energy Research/Education/Service at Ball State University in Indiana, which offers interdisciplinary education in energy and resource use, alternatives, and conservation.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Sunday, May 20, 2012
CLARKS HILL, S.C. -- It was a frantic day for several Clarks Hill neighbors after sparks from a train coming through town caused a number fires to break out.
Three fire departments were out battling the blaze along the railroad tracks on Sunday. There were seven fires in just a mile and a half.
This all started early Sunday afternoon when witnesses say they saw sparks coming off the wheels of a CSX train, starting fires around them.
On Sunday evening, they were still fighting the blaze.
"I just saw smoke everywhere; it was smoke coming from about three different directions," said neighbor Angelia Siebert.
Hours later that smoke still smoldered.
"Luckily it was on the other side of the tracks, not on the side where our house is, so it wouldn't catch our houses on fire 'cause that was my biggest worry," Siebert said.
Around noon a train came down the tracks, shooting sparks off the wheels.
"He called me and told me to call 911 'cause he just saw sparks come from the train and he said he saw it in three different places," Siebert said.
Fire officials say this isn't uncommon.
"It's pretty well common at night, any time of the day, whenever a train goes by, whatever schedule they have, we're just likely to have it whenever it's really dry like this," said Clarks Hill Fire Chief Billy Ryan.
But to cause seven fires within a mile and a half doesn't happen often.
"I didn't think it'd be a great fire day just because of the rain we've had in the past few days," said Tony Ashley, who has been a fire warden for the South Carolina Forestry Commission for almost 30 years.
He says before the rain, this fire would have spread faster and they would've needed to call in more units.
"If it'd been last week, it would've been a lot worse," Ashley said.
He spent the afternoon cutting control lines around the fires to stop them from spreading.
"You never know from one day to the next what it's gonna be," he said.
Ashley says the fire departments did a great job keeping this one under control.
"You can see the fast response from the fire department helped keep these fires from spreading," he said.
Fire trucks came from Modoc, Parksville and Clarks Hill. They are all volunteer fire departments and right now they are all in big need of volunteers.
We tried to call CSX, but no one answered the call. We were told though that the trains stopped running for about 40 minutes after the fires started.

'Mad Men,' The Conversation: The Readers Respond
Before the first episode of the fourth season "Mad Men" premiere fades away, I'd like to respond briefly to some of the many insightful comments from readers. Reader "cindy," for example, has a telling insight into Don Draper's emergence from despondency. Don realizes, she posits, that he has been doing exactly what the executives from the Jantzen swimsuit company are doing –- losing out to the competition because of an old-fashioned refusal to "show more skin." Don is putting SCDR at risk by his own petulant reticence to "show some skin" in public relations events like the Advertising Age interview. Not his job, Don says, provoking Bert's sharp retort that converting creativity into business opportunities is Don's job "and you're failing at it." In the ensuing meeting with Jantzen, Don explodes at the excessive modesty the executives have about their swimsuits. He throws them out, and proceeds immediately to change his own ways by reaching out to "Bert Cooper's man at the Wall Street Journal" for a revealing, business-promoting interview. Modesty be damned.
Reader "Dave" notes that the one and only "authentic relationship interaction" in the entire episode was between Don and Peggy. They argue, but like a married couple who actually respect each other. Isn't Dave right that Peggy seems to resent the fact the Don has a "guest" at home, and Don has raised eyebrows over Peggy's supposed "fiancé." Good point, Dave.
Reader "bmartins" has a question. Noting that Don has the taxi driver take him home to "Waverly and Sixth," the reader wonders why a midtown ad executive would move down to Greenwich Village and asks whether any of us knows what the West Village was like at the time. The question made me realize (after consulting Google Maps) that I was living nine blocks away from Don Draper in the summer of 1965. Anne Dellinger and I got married in New Haven in June, took the Greyhound bus to NYC and moved into 2 Horatio Street. I took the subway up to the midtown law firm where I was a clerk not far from the Time-Life building so the commute would not have been inconvenient for Don. There did not seem to be very many older, straight lawyers or other professionals in the somewhat Bohemian West Village, so Don's moving there is something of an act of rebellion against "uptown" conformity. (As I recall, Anne and I lived on the second floor, which seems to mean something in episode one. As reader "Scott" notes, Don's proposed Jantzen ad — "we can't show you the second floor" — neatly reflects the fact that SCDR can't show clients their second floor because it doesn't exist.)
Watching "Mad Men" can have a strange effect. As I looked up how close the corner of Waverly and Sixth was to our Horatio Street apartment I found myself momentarily wondering whether I ever passed Don in the street the summer we were both living in the West Village. Either I'm losing my mind, or the show is really good, or both.
To read our first conversation about "Mad Men" go here.

Doc – RIP
Posted by Bumper Morgan on Wednesday, November 6, 2013 in Radio | 0 comments
This page is dedicated to Doc, our Miniature Schnauzer who we brought into our family on Dec. 23, 2004. Doc was a well-mannered puppy, he had a confident demeanor that helped him gain the respect of other dogs three times his size. He mastered many tricks, and he liked playing baseball & football, swimming and hiking. I would tell him the Red Sox should hire him, and that he would make Tom Brady proud.
In the last few months of his life, Doc suffered from small seizures he had hidden from us. We became very concerned about his health when we saw him walk in a counter-clockwise circle around our backyard tree. Sadly, the muscular damage from his massive seizures he later suffered, and a breakdown of his digestive track became too much to bare. Sadly, his body wasn't absorbing the nutrients it needed to sustain itself. Doc passed on November 3, 2013, an early Sunday morning at home with his caring family.
Download Doc's Ringtone for iPhone and Android
I applaud my wife Kim for stabilizing Doc after his seizures, being proactive after he took his final breath. She devoted much quality-time attending to his every need during the final eight days of his illness, he loved her very much, Kim has a heart of gold.
Writing this page has been cathartic for both of us, knowing that others might be feeling the same. To our surprise, a few weeks after Doc passed, Kim found a Miniature Schnauzer on Pet Finder. After debating for days whether it was too soon to bring another dog into our family, we traveled to the MSPCA and adopted Mimi, she needed us as much as we needed her. In our situation, it was the right decision. Mimi is not into sports like Doc was, but she is a very fast runner, her unique personality is sweet and thoughtful, she has lots of potential.
Please read The Rainbow Bridge
Kim and I were talking about the Gold Star Parents who lost their children in war, hospitals that are filled with kids who have neurological issues, we know they carry a much heavier weight than we do, we can only imagine how their parents feel.
I reflect on a scene from the movie Seven Years in Tibet, seeing how the Buddhist monks carefully transferred the earthworms from the ground, prior to building a movie theater for the young Dalai Lama. I applied that same principal to my life, rescuing little bugs that somehow managed to wander indoors, by gently picking them up and placing them safely outdoors. Throughout his short nine years, we also gave Doc the kindness and respect he deserved. Rest in peace Doc, your true friendship will always be remembered.

2. STL and Atlanta have been the most consistently competitive NL teams since 1990, only we can't finish in the playoffs. So there is the competitive nature of the rivalry.
3. I had two dick professors who were STL fans that particularly turned me against them.
4. When it really reached a head was at the WC game in Atlanta. My wife and I were at the game for the biggest bull call in the history of the game. Now, the call wasn't the Cards' fault. But the way their fans and players and Matheney were total assholes about it, acting like it was the right call and they won it fair and square was utter bull. Not to mention it was Chipper's last game, and we were the far and away more deserving team of a playoff spot that year anyway. Unless there is a tie, baseball is to precarious of a game to decide in a one game playoff.
As you can see, not any one thing it's just a buildup of all that stuff has really made me hate the Cardinals.
