Maronzio Vance
If you are looking for someone who knows the meaning of the word "no" then keep looking because if you ask anyone who knows him, Maronzio Vance refuses to acknowledge the word even exists. Making people laugh for as long as he can remember, this witty, sarcastic, storytelling North Carolina-born comedian/actor (who also refuses to accept the fact that he comes from the South because his state starts with "North") once waited in a men's bathroom for two and a half hours for a chance to meet the Kings of Comedy.
If you haven't seen him in any local bathrooms, you may have seen him on The Jamie Kennedy Experiment, Jamie Foxx's Laffaplooza on Comedy Central, Wanda Sykes: Wanda Does It, Last Call with Carson Daly, writing for The Boondocks or Last Comic Standing. People can mistake his comedy and conversation as being sarcastic, but let him tell it: "When I started out I asked Steve Harvey the key to becoming a good comedian. He paused and told me how much his suit cost. I can only give what I'm given. See you in the restroom people."
I don't ask people without arms to point me in the right direction -Maronzio Vance

Do green screen cleaners actually work? This article compares them to conventional cleaning products and describes how to use them effectively.
As the previous undisputed champ, petroleum cleaners have been used for many years. They are viewed as effective, inexpensive, and readily available. But in today's world we have learned that petroleum cleaners come with heavy baggage and possible problems that can cause you to pull your hair out. Have you ever had an emulsion that would not clean out of the screen, or that came out in pieces? If so, you are probably one of many screen printers using a petroleum or petro-green cleaner (sometimes referred to as hot solvents) in your shop.
In their day, there is no question that hot solvents were the best cleaning option available. But that was before there were alternatives—other contenders. Petroleum and petro-green cleaners can have devastating effects on certain types of emulsions, causing you headaches and adding the cost of new screens. In addition to possible production or cleaning problems, hot solvents also bring a variety of hazards that shop owners must be cautious about (Figure 1). High VOCs (volatile organic compounds), high flash points, worker health and safety issues, and environmental impact are on the top of the list. The bottom line is that, while petroleum and petro-green cleaners clean well and appear to be cost effective, they can also cause avoidable problems.
Previously the under dog in the ring, green ink removers have been around for a couple of decades, but have gained more popularity in recent years. Earlier they were viewed as being more expensive and less effective; however, technological advances have made this presumption untrue in today's world. When used properly, green ink cleaners can be hidden gems with a big pay-off.
Green cleaners require a little different mindset when they're used to clean screens and can't be used exactly like their petroleum counterparts. Have you ever had a situation where you wanted to change colors but the tape wouldn't stick after the ink was cleaned out? This is a common situation when a green cleaner is used. Where hot solvents have low flash points and quickly evaporate from the screen, green cleaners generally require a water-dampened wipe to remove the last of the solvent residue.
There are hundreds of ink cleaners on the market to clean numerous types of inks used in screen printing today. They generally fall into three categories: petroleum, green, or a petro-green blend. Petroleum cleaners are usually highly volatile, potentially dangerous, not earth friendly, and made from the by-products of the refining process of crude oil.
Green cleaners generally are not volatile, are designed to be earth friendly, and are made from renewable resources such as soybeans, corn, and oranges. Petro-green products are a blend of petroleum and green products that generally are less volatile and provide manufacturers of petroleum products with a method for making their products less dangerous to use. Being practical, screen printers just want a cleaner that is affordable and works well. But sometimes it's not easy to select just the right cleaner to achieve this.
Even today, there are only two primary environmentally friendly chemistries on the market that will remove emulsions and stencils. They come as a liquid or in crystal or powder form. The trick is in how you use them. Every emulsion or stencil requires its own dilution rate of one of these two chemistries to remove a properly cured emulsion. Some manufacturers make a one-size-fits-all emulsion reclaimer, while other manufacturers tailor their emulsion reclaimers to specific emulsions. Not all emulsion removers are the same (Figure 2). Even though most manufacturers use one of the two same chemistries, the trick is finding the one that removes your brand and type of emulsion effectively. A tip: If your emulsion remover does not remove your emulsion with minimal effort in less than a minute, you should look to replace your emulsion remover.

Kanye West makes his runway shoes with Giuseppe Zanotti, but for sneakers, he's a Nike man. (Well, with occasional pit stops at Vuitton.) The company announced today the official release date of its second sneaker with the rapper-turned-designer, the Air Yeezy II, which hits stores globally June 9. There are a wealth of minute details to puzzle over, from the "anaconda-texture leather" panels to the nods to ancient civilizations, like the hieroglyphics on the loop strap spelling out YZY and the falcon insignia on the tongue. (The Ancient Egyptian god Horus, god of the sky, war, and hunting, was commonly depicted with the head of a falcon.) And those looking to walk a mile in Kanye's shoes will be particularly pleased. These boast a slimmed-down silhouette originally derived from tailoring the prototypes directly to West's foot.

New Albany resident Ken Washington once viewed his family heritage as more an annoyance than an honor.
When he met someone new, he could practically see the question forming in the person's head: You aren't related to George, are you?
On the rare occasion when someone actually asked, he would answer honestly — "Well, yes, I am" — but not usually be believed.
So for years, as he raised four sons with wife Pat, he treated the fact that his great-great-great-great-uncle is known as the father of our country with a "Don't ask, don't tell" mentality.
"There's a lot of pride, but you also don't want to brag," he said.
Only relatively recently has he made the effort to research the history of his famous family.
The 75-year-old Washington descends directly from Charles Washington, the youngest brother of George.
Charles had a son (Samuel), who had a son (also named Samuel), who had a son (Jesse), who had a son (George) — whose son, Wayne, fathered Ken.
Ken was born in Chicago, and both parents died before he turned 15. He was sent to live first with an aunt on his mother's side, then at a boys home.
He lost touch with his Washington relatives, he said.
"My life was pretty tumultuous at that time."
After serving in the Air Force, he moved to central Ohio and worked at a gas station.
He eventually bought a station and, later, a string of auto-parts stores.
Pat recalled that a friend set the couple up on a blind date, then cautioned her beforehand not to call him George.
"I said: 'Why would I call him George? His name is Ken.' "
She learned that Ken had teasingly been called "George" and "the general" in the Air Force.
As their sons grew up, they dealt with the same questions that Ken had faced.
"Every single one of us did our presentations in class," said 49-year-old Bob Washington, the oldest along with twin brother Mike.
Bob and Mike live in New Albany; brother Jim, 47, in Alexandria, Ohio; and brother Steve, 43, in Florida.
Ken and Pat have nine grandchildren.
About a decade ago, Ken said, he decided to re-connect with his father's family — for the sake of his children and grandchildren.
"My grandkids and my sons, they don't have much of the background," he said. "I said: 'Well, I really have to start trying to tie this up and give them information. If I don't do it, it will get lost in time.' "
He discovered the National Society of Washington Family Descendants.
The group, founded in 1954, limits membership to those able to prove (through birth, marriage and death certificates) they are descended from one of the eight ancestors of George Washington.
George had no children. His previously widowed wife, Martha, had two children from her first marriage.
"It's ironic that the father of our country didn't have children," said Justin Glenn, the registrar general of the society and a retired Florida State University professor.
"Because he married Martha when she was still a young woman (age 27), every sound scholar has concluded that George became infertile after he contracted a very serious tropical disease while visiting Bermuda with his half brother, Lawrence Washington."
In its 60 years, only 1,159 people have been admitted to the society — including Ken Washington in 2009.
He has since taken an interest in visiting historic sites such as Happy Retreat, the home of Charles Washington in Charles Town, W.Va.
Next on his list, in June: Sulgrave Manor, the family ancestral home in Northamptonshire, England.
Bob Washington appreciates his father's efforts.
Though busy with his career and family, he hopes one day to connect more strongly with his heritage.
"It's definitely something to be proud of," he said. "There's a mystique around the Washington name, and there are not a lot of people who have that allure around their name.
"Most politicians, their names are tarnished."

Firebrand Ex-Chief Accuses Canada of Extermination and Genocide as First Nations Chiefs Disagree
A controversial former band leader from Manitoba who vied for the National Chief spot at the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) last summer may have accomplished what no amount of negotiation or meetings has done to date: given Canadian officials and aboriginal leaders something to agree on.
Both parties blasted former Roseau River First Nation Chief Terrance Nelson for his comments made in Iran about genocide and extermination of aboriginals in Canada. Nelson, thrown out of office about a year ago, alleged on Iran's PressTV that Canada is trying to "exterminate" aboriginal people and said reserves were akin to concentration camps when they were formed in the 19th century. He also decried what he called the West's "demonization" of Iranian people.
"The reservations were originally more or less concentration camps," he said on an Iranian talk show during the visit, which he said aimed to foster connections between aboriginals and Iranians. "There's no real economic development on reserves, so the reservations mostly have between 60 and 95 per cent unemployment. This is the root cause of the artificial poverty that's on reserves: It is economic sanctions."
Reaction from Canada was swift. "Canada will not take lessons from Iran, with its record of brutal human rights abuses and terrorism," said Jason MacDonald, a spokesperson for Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development (AAND) John Duncan, to CBC News. The Conservative government, he said, has taken many "concrete steps" to improve conditions on reserves, which are governed by Canada's century-and-a-half old Indian Act. McDonald added that government officials were "disappointed that Mr. Nelson has allowed himself to be used as a pawn by the Iranian regime in yet another PR stunt to distract from their own record."
Publicity stunt or not, Nelson's Iranian mission—joined by former Dakota Tipi First Nation Chief Dennis Pashe, also from Manitoba—has been long in the making. Earlier this year Nelson met with consular officials at the Iranian embassy in Ottawa, a move that got him branded as a radical by the Canadian government. And his AFN National Chief platform hinged on creating economic international ties independent of Canada.
"There are First Nations who aren't dependent on the government of Canada," he told Indian Country Today Media Network. "We can bring in our own sources of revenue. It's critically important, when you have 60 to 95 per cent unemployment in most First Nations, to provide a process to come out of that economic apartheid. We have the ability to attract foreign investment. Eventually [we] will be funded by countries who want to sell their products into Canada."
But his message has been condemned by other aboriginal leaders, who say that making concentration-camp comparisons, which evokes the Holocaust, are inflammatory and damage intercultural relationships.
"I don't think it necessarily represents the views or perspectives of the bulk of indigenous people that live here," Grand Chief Derek Nepinak, head of the Association of Manitoba Chiefs, told CBC News. "I think we live here peacefully within western Canadian society, and I think some of the messaging is not doing any good."
Likewise, Jewish-Canadian organizations attacked Nelson's comparisons as anti-semitic.
Nelson is no stranger to controversy. In the lead-up to a high-profile AFN National Day of Action in 2007, the then-chief threatened cross-Canada railway blockades against what he called Canadian "apartheid" and made off-the-cuff remarks about using violence.
"There's only two ways to deal with white people, to have an effective resolution of the issues," he said at the time. "You either pick up a gun and deal with the issue, or you stand between the white man and his money."

This article is going to introduce you to JUnit, a tool for project testing and debugging. After introducing the theory of test-driven development, we'll move on to a step-by-step explanation of how you can create your JUnit tests with the help of the popular Eclipse IDE. We'll show how something as simple as a Hello World program can be exposed to a JUnit test.
Many books have already been written about automated testing, but very few of them pay attention to the question of how to organize such tests. As more tests are written, it becomes harder to know where to put a test or even what to call it. This has become a significant issue with the rise of test-driven development (TDD), which has been popularized by Extreme Programming (XP). You can think of TDD as "development through testing."
The major provisions of TDD are:
Such an approach can be used by any programmer and does not require the use of a specific methodology. But before we get into writing tests, it would be desirable to first look at how to organize the automated tests.
There several different kinds of tests we should consider:
Unit tests: These serve to check the correctness of several modules (i.e., classes). If the object needs access to some external data source, like a database, these are simulated with mock objects, but only in cases in which re-creating the actual data source would be difficult in a test environment.
Customer's tests: These are functional, system, and acceptance tests. All of them check the behavior of the system as a whole. In the XP methodology, these tests are written by the customer, given the program skeleton.
Integration tests: These are like a cross between the customer tests and unit tests. Integration tests help test the interaction of several levels of the application. Typically, mock objects are not used in integration testing, which may increase testing time. Also, integration tests often demand the presence of a special test environment, such as a database seeded with test data. Integration tests may also use special external libraries. An example of such a library for the integration of J2EE applications is Cactus. Explanation of these tests is going beyond of this article, and requires much detailed theory information, so you just take it as information that such kind of tests exists.
Developer's tests: These are just tests that developers use to verify whole code, new pieces of code, and/or new functions. For each developer, it is important to generate new tests to check code whenever possible. Organizing these tests can be as important as organizing the code base itself.
For the rest of this article, when I say "test," I will mean developer's test.
During development, a programmer sometimes asks himself or herself: is there a test for the given behavior of the system and if it exists, where it can be found? A classic example is basic bug fixing, in which the mistake is found, but not by automated tests. The sequence of events that results from this situation might be:
Certainly, variations of this process are possible, but the idea should be clear: you only correct a mistake when you have a test that reveals the mistake.
Now, let's consider how a developer would solve this situation. To search through existing functionality tests:
We are almost ready to create our test, so now we have to choose a name for our test. You could say, "It's not even a problem: just put the word "Test" before your class name, and that's it!" But not so fast! Let me just show how this approach can run into trouble:
These are just the most common problems; there are many more.
Let me offer one recommendation on naming your tests: the name of a test class should convey that this class is a test class, and indicate what exactly it checks, whether or not it repeats the name of a tested class. That's easy. Don't worry if such a name turns out too long or ugly. It describes itself, and that is the idea.
We will create our first test with the help of the JUnit tool in the Eclipse IDE. I assume that you have already downloaded a recent version of this product, but if not, you can always get it from the official site. We need JUnit, which you can download from its official site, too. Download it and unzip somewhere on your disk, where you are keeping your Java libraries.
Run Eclipse IDE. We will create a new workplace project, so click File -> New -> Project,
then choose Java and click Next. Type in a project name -- for example,
ProjectWithJUnit. Click Finish. The new project will be generated in your IDE.
Let's configure our Eclipse IDE, so it will add the JUnit library to the build path. Click on Project -> Properties, select Java Build Path, Libraries, click Add External JARs and
browse to directory where your JUnit is stored. Pick junit.jar and click Open. You will
see that JUnit will appear on your screen in the list of libraries. By clicking Okay you will
force Eclipse to rebuild all build paths.
We are ready to start developing our "Hello World" example. Let's follow TDD rules and create the test even
before we have any kind of code. For the sake of having somewhere to start, we
will assume that our future code class will be named
HelloWorld and that it
will have the method
say(), which will return some
String value ("Hello World," for example).
To create such a test, right-click on the
ProjectWithJUnit title, select New -> Other,
expand the "Java" selection, and choose JUnit. On the right column of the dialog,
choose Test Case, then click Next. This is illustrated by Figure 1.
Figure 1. Creating a JUnit test in the Eclipse IDE
Type in the name of our yet-to-be written class
into the Test class field, and choose a name for our Test case -- for example,
TestThatWeGetHelloWorldPrompt (yes, it looks too long, but it clearly indicates what it does.) Click on Finish.
The code for TestThatWeGetHelloWorldPrompt.java is as follows:
import junit.framework.TestCase;
public class TestThatWeGetHelloWorldPrompt
extends TestCase {
public TestThatWeGetHelloWorldPrompt(
String name) {
public void testSay() {
HelloWorld hi = new HelloWorld();
assertEquals("Hello World!", hi.say());
public static void main(String[] args) {
This code is not complex; it's just a bit unusual. However, let's examine it in detail. We extend
TestCase class, which is defined in JUnit's javadocs as "a fixture to run multiple tests." JUnit also has
TestSuite, which is a set of related test cases, but we will not work with in this article.
To create our own simple test case, we need to follow these steps:
testShow(), etc.).
TestThatWeGetHelloWorldPrompt.java meets both of these criteria: it subclasses
TestCase and has a method called
testSay(). This method uses an
assertEquals() call, which compares the value which we expect to receive against the value returned by
main() method is used to run the tests and present their
output. JUnit's
TestRunner executes our tests, and provides both graphical
and textual output. We use the textual version because that's what Eclipse IDE supports
and it's absolutely suitable for us. Once executed, the textual version of the test
shows the result as text output and Eclipse IDE uses that to create its own graphic presentation.
So, according TDD provisions, once we run our test we should see that it failed. Let's try. Click Run -> Run as -> JUnit Test (remember that TestThatWeGetHelloWorldPrompt.java should be highlighted in Package Explorer). In the left window, instead of Package Explorer, you will see the JUnit window, which shows a red bar, the failed tests, and details of those failures, as seen in Figure 2. If you do not automatically see it, just click on JUnit label (on the bottom left), which is one of the layers of this screen.
Figure 2. Failed test in JUnit
Perfect! It really fails. Now we can create working code in our project: right-click the
ProjectWithJUnit title in the left Package Explorer window, then choose New -> Class.
Choose a name for the class — we've assumed it to be
HelloWorld. Do not check off
any of checkboxes on the bottom of the dialog window, just click Finish. Below is the code for
public class HelloWorld {
public String say() {
return("Hello World!");
It's very simple and merits no commentary. So let's test it and see the results. Run our test the same way as described above, and in the left JUnit window you will see a green bar, as seen in Figure 3. The green bar means that our test was successful.
Figure 3. Successful test in JUnit
Now we want to try to make it fail once again, but for a different reason. This will help show how
JUnit test covers and reports different errors. Edit the
to change the expected return value from "Hello World!" to, for example, "Hello Me!". When you run this
JUnit test again, the bar will be red, and at the bottom of the left JUnit window you will
see an explanation of what failed, as illustrated by Figure 4.
Figure 4.
ComparisonError running JUnit
In conclusion, I would like to mention a few thoughts about testing as a necessary part of the development process. Testing code was always an integral part of any development. But it has been advanced over the last few years, thanks to powerful methodologies (such as "expectations-based development," etc.), accelerated testing toolkits, and the development of better testing processes. If you have found this article interesting, take some time to study formal testing methodology, and use it in your work.

Hi, Rob! Your NICU sounds strict! Just parents and grandparents? Our NICU's rule was that one of the baby's parents had to be with the guest(s) during the visit. All of my family members and friends and co-workers came up at some time or another - we were in there almost 4 months. When Hannah was first born, though, they did say just family because she was so critical. My best friend was there with my parents in the waiting room during the delivery, and when Hannah was born my parents said she was my sister so she could go in with them and my husband to see the baby - so my friend saw my baby before I did! lol! I was in recovery for three days I think before I could see her. I would just explain to your primary nurse the close connection your wife has with her sister and how it will boost your wife's spirits to have her sister there. They should take your wife's well-being into consideration, because she still has some recovery ahead of her. Good luck![:)]

Let's Rush To Judgment: 'The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug'
By Linda Holmes • Jun 13, 2013
Well, here it is: the trailer for the next Hobbit movie in the series of three Hobbit movies that will be made out of a single medium-length book.
The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug doesn't come out until December, but you can already delve into the dragons and mountains and birds (oh my).
So what do you think? Are you excited? Could you have gotten this done in two movies? Or one?

Fall Festivities2 of 12
Kick off the fall season with a social gathering. "It's the best way to achieve an uncluttered, clean and organized space," says Debra Duneier, a feng shui master practitioner. The anticipation of the upcoming event can make cleaning more fun—and necessary.
Pile High3 of 12
Clear out your closet and drawers by making "stay/maybe/go" piles, says Duneier. Put the "maybe" items in a box, seal it and date it. "In six months, if you can't remember what was in the box before you open it, then those items are tossed into the "go" pile—with no exceptions!" This makes room for new and exciting things to enter both your closet and your life.
Plant With Purpose4 of 12
Bring nature indoors with a new houseplant for the upcoming season. Indoor trees and other plants like bamboo or gardenias are not only pleasurable to look at, but they also bring us additional health benefits. Duneier says that plants purify the air through tiny pores in their leaves that act as air filters.
Pump Up The Volume5 of 12
Duneier is also a fan of playing music, because she says the vibrations clear out the old energy and make room for new energy. "Play tunes that make you happy. Studies have shown that smiling improves your health, your stress level and your attractiveness," she says.
Water & Power6 of 12
In feng shui, the energy of the water element is most closely linked to prosperity. "It's important to place a water feature such as a fountain or a miniature waterfall in the southwest corner of your office for greater abundance to enter your life," says Duneier, author of EcoChi: Designing the Human Experience.

Wave Goodbye7 of 12
A surge protector can reduce your exposure to radio frequency waves and electromagnetic fields if you get into the habit of using the off switch. "Studies show that EMFs interrupt sleep and can cause health problems. For a restful night (and a lower energy bill), simply shut off the main switch on the surge protector before you go to bed," says Duneier.
Red Alert8 of 12
Duneier says that according to the principles of feng shui, adding warm colors like red and burgundy into your home will increase passion and excitement because of their stimulating chi, or energy vibration. Softer colors like salmon, coral or dusty rose are believed to help attract a considerate and gentle lover.

Bird Call9 of 12
Identifying the "Red Bird," or the active space, in your home can help you channel positive energy. One indoor location that is considered a "Red Bird" is the wall opposite your bed, which is believed to be an area where your future is depicted. "Carefully choose what you put on this wall," she says. "Select a painting, sculpture or photo that symbolizes the love and romance that you want to attract to your life."
Round About10 of 12
Fall is the perfect season to be seated at a round or oval table for meals. Duneier says that sitting in this formation enables everyone to see each other and to easily get involved in conversation. "Each person is valued equally, regardless of age or influence, since no one is seated in the power position at the head of the table."
Mirror Image11 of 12
In fall, the days get shorter, and the darkest areas of your home will have even less light than in the summer months. Strategically place a mirror on a wall where it will reflect daylight into the darkest areas of your home. "Sunlight is a natural mood elevator and will keep the space invigorated in the fall and winter months," says Duneier.
SHOP NOW: Hiltonia Oval Bevel Frameless Wall Mirror, $130
Salt Cure12 of 12
The cleansing properties of sea salt are used to renew a space's "chi." To cleanse your home of old energies and create room for fresh energy, Duneier says to try this: In a small bowl, add two tablespoons of sea salt, two cups of warm water and then wipe down all of your door and doorknobs with a moistened cloth that's been dipped in the solution.
SHOP NOW: Maldon Sea Salt, from $7

- Title
- Design and manufacture of Nd-Fe-B thick coatings by the thermal spray process
- Author(s)
- Gan, Jo Ann; Berndt, C. C.
- Abstract
- Permanent magnetic coatings show potential in micro scale applications such as micro motors and micro generators. Nd-Fe-B magnetic coatings of average thickness 50 μm were produced via the flame spray method where the behavior of Nd-Fe-B particles in the thermal spray process was studied through single splat formation. There are generally five types of Nd-Fe-B splat morphology; which correspond to different solidification routes and varying degree of splashing. Microstructures of coating cross sections exhibit features such as cracks and porosity. The microstructural features were related to the physical properties and the brittle nature of the rare-earth alloy feedstock. Cross sections of the coatings also exhibited the presence of two distinct phases: Nd-rich and Fe-rich regions, which have been validated by EDS analysis. Metastable phase formation and decomposition followed by non-equilibrium solidification of the molten droplet prior to impact have been suggested to cause phase separation and were also identified in the formation of single splats. Hardness tests further confirmed the two distinct phases as Nd-rich and Fe-rich areas.

A woman was asked to cover up her body while working out in her local gym, but not for a very common reason.
Tiffany Austin said she recently joined the Planet Fitness gym in Richmond, Calif., but only made it about 15 minutes into her first workout when she was approached by a staff member, reports KTVU.
According to Austin, that staff member asked her to put a shirt on and said, "We've had some complaints you're intimidating people with your toned body."
Austin said that she had noticed people staring at her, but didn't understand why. She was wearing a tank top that showed her stomach and work-out pants and says she didn't see anything wrong with the outfit. She was told her tank top violated the dress code policy at the gym.
She was then approached by another staff member about the same issue and at that point, she asked for a manager, got her money back and left the gym.

It's beginning to look a lot like nap time
With Christmas looming (and Chanukah already in full swing) I realized that the 19th annual James Dworetsky Holiday Parade was the very next day, so with little time to spare, I grabbed the camera and zipped off to Jeffersonville, NY to capture the moment. Bigger, better and more sparkly than ever before, the illuminated tractors, vehicles (and people) floated down Main Street in holiday style, ushering in the next one, before I had a chance to digest the first. Of all the parades that occur throughout the region, I think this (until the next comes marching along) is my favorite. Despite the frigid temperature (and it was darn cold) hundreds lined the streets to catch a glimpse of the newest entries, as kids shrieked with glee for the candy tossed like confetti, while firefighters sounded horns and tripped the light fantastic for onlookers, prior to Santa's grand entrance in the town's fire station. To view the photos and tag your friends, "like" us on Facebook (www.facebook.com/riverreporter) and share the memories into the New Year. Shivering and satiated (for a brief, shining moment), I raced home to the pup, who was indeed taking a nap, with visions of sugar plum dog biscuits dancing in her head.

Enjoy the colour and drama of India's festive pageantry
Navaratri is celebrated for nine consecutive nights in praise of Lord Ram (hero of the epic Ramayana) and Goddess Durga. Continuous chanting from the great epic 'Ramayana', along with evening performances from the episodes of his life are held for nine days. Navaratri is a combination of many concepts, with the common theme of the victory of good over evil. The most joyous celebration of Navaratri is seen in Gujarat, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Bengal. In Gujarat, every night people gather in courtyards to dance the Garba and Dandiya Raas, a community dance in which men and women dressed in festive clothes dancing in pairs with Dandiya or painted wooden sticks.

It's amazing how much history there is to explore in Pure Michigan! And if you head towards Michigan's Irish Hills, there's plenty to uncover. Today, the team at the Michigan Historical Center shares the story behind one of the area's historic gems – Walker Tavern Historic Site.
The Irish Hills of southern Michigan, formed by glaciers millions of years ago, have been home to Native Americans for thousands of years and to Europeans for a little more than three centuries. Located within a two-hour drive of most of Michigan's major metropolitan areas, they are a great place to bring a picnic, enjoy swimming in a local lake or camp at one of several campgrounds. One of the area's long time summer destinations is Walker Tavern Historic Site at Cambridge Junction, near Brooklyn.
Passing through kettle lakes and rolling hills, two Irish Hills roads meet at Cambridge Junction. One road, a worn Indian trail surveyed in 1825, joins Detroit with Chicago (now US-12); the other the La Plaisance Bay Pike (now M-50) joins Monroe on Lake Erie to Alto in west Michigan.
High traffic on these two roads in the 1830s created the need for a wayside tavern where people traveling by stage, wagon or foot could rest, take a meal or stay the night. Cost for a meal and lodging was 50 cents — the cost for an acre of land was $1.25. Most travelers on the two roads were looking for farms to purchase. Today's travelers looking for rest, relaxation and the excitement of learning something new still find Walker Tavern Historic Site an enjoyable stop along the road.
The historic site includes three buildings and 80 acres of park land. Walker Tavern and the barn focus on the 1840s and 50s with artifacts and exhibits about people, travel and work. The Hewitt House is undergoing restoration as it tells stories of early auto tourism. Sundays are the busiest of all the days at the site, with visitors coming by to purchase locally-grown produce at the onsite Farmers Market or to take in a baseball game played by 1869 rules.
Railroads built in the 1850s turned Cambridge Junction from stagecoach hub to community gathering place. For many years the site was a farm. With the advent of the automobile at the beginning of the 20th century, life at Cambridge Junction began to change.
In 1922, the Rev. Frederick Hewitt purchased the old frame tavern, once owned by early settler Sylvester Walker, as well as its counterpart, the brick tavern he built across the road in 1853. Hewitt loved the Irish Hills as a place to hunt and fish, and now he saw opportunity to follow his passion for antiques.
Opening the taverns as antique store, hotel, restaurant and museum, Hewitt capitalized on the automobile tourism that brought a boom to the Irish Hills economy. A day's ride by car from Detroit, the Irish Hills drew thousands of vacationers, who came to enjoy the lakes, hills and other tourist attractions. In 1929, Hewitt built a colonial revival home on his property. His visitors included Henry and Clara Ford and Michigan Governor Woodbridge Ferris. In 1965 Hewitt's daughter sold the frame tavern and the land around it to the state, and it became Cambridge Junction State Park.
Today, the park offers visitors the opportunity to explore the natural beauty of the Irish Hills and imagine a time of stagecoaches and one of early automobiles. New this year in the newly painted red room of the Hewitt House are photos and the scrapbook of the family that recognized the historic value of Walker Tavern and preserved it.
To close out summer, why not find the road that takes you to the Irish Hills? Cambridge Junction State Park is open for picnics and gentle strolls seven days a week from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The three historic buildings on site are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. Park activities include a local Farmers Market on Sundays through Oct. 6, vintage baseball and various educational programs sponsored by the Friends of Walker Tavern. To check the site's events schedule please visit michigan.gov/walkertavern.

Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndrome Type II

- Schmidt Syndrome
General Discussion
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type II, also known as Schmidt syndrome, is a rare autoimmune disorder in which there is a steep drop in production of several essential hormones by the glands that secrete these hormones. When first described, this disorder was thought to involve only adrenal insufficiency (Addison's disease) and thyroid insufficiency (Hashimoto's thyroiditis). However, over time, as more patients were studied, the scope of the disorder was expanded to include disorders of other underperforming endocrine glands. These include the gonads, which secrete sex hormones; the pancreas which secretes insulin and is intimately tied up with diabetes mellitus; and sometimes the parathyroid glands. Failure of the endocrine glands to function is usually accompanied by signs of malnutrition because the ability of the intestinal tract to absorb nutrients is reduced dramatically. Since the combination of affected glands differs from patient to patient, the signs of this disorder are diverse.
Most cases of this disorder are sporadic although some clinical researchers believe that there is a familial or hereditary trait associated with AIPS-II. If so, it may involve a complex interaction among many genes.

Nice anthology of pomes from some modern days heads/musicians, the highlight of which is Christina Carter's wonderful "Center Of Exits". Also features work by Michael Anderson, Michelle Angelini, James Barrett, James Blackshaw, Julie Cook, Michael Donnelly (Brothers Of The Occult Sisterhood et al), Sid Fallon, Spencer Grady, Denton Harris, Denton Harris, Robert Horton, Paganini Jones, Eden Hemming Rose, Brad Rose, Mainon Alexandra Schwartz, Indigo Tempesta, Kade L. Twist and Keith Wood (Hush Arbors). Hand-numbered edition of 120 copies. Each book hand-bound with cloth tape and a hard cover with a design by Keith Wood.
Brand new compilation from out of the Espers' communal space in Fishtown, Philadelphia (an old VT stomping ground) on a new label run by Mr Norm Fetter dedicated to documenting local mutant strains and associated international orbits. Features exclusive tracks by Fursaxa ("March Hare"), Chris Bozzone, Eric Carbonara (who recorded Taurpis Tula's Sparrows), Sharron Kraus, Trollslända (the duo of Meg Baird and Helena Espvall of Espers), Niagara Falls (featuring Fetter himself), Glasgow's Phosphene, Stainless Japan, Peace Feather, The Watery Graves Of Portland, Sharks With Wings, Thom Zephyr Roach, The Doctor And Philip and Noah Raymond Levey. Comes in a beautifully screened hard card gatefold sleeve with insert.
Thumping label sampler from this suave imprint run by Eddie Flowers, brought to you courtesy of their sister/brother label, Gulcher. A bunch of otherwise unavailable tracks – including a first take of The Gizmos' "Hey Beat Mon" with MX-80's Rich Stim on the horn and a destroyed version of The Yardbirds' "Shapes Of Things" by the semi-mythical O.Rex (featuring Solomon and Jay Gruberger, Kenne Highland and Eddie Flowers), some solo thought from Joe Tunis aka Joe + N – as well as a clutch of tracks from alla the various limited CD-Rs Flowers has burned over the years, from whacked UK bedroom zoners like Neil Campbell, Stewart Walden, Phil Todd and Ian Middleton through Crawlspace, Not A Sonata, Blackthorne Stick, OvO, Big Whiskey, Allun, Lebedung, Joshua Jugband 5 and The Screamin' Mee-Mees & Hot Scott Fischer. A whole fistful of fucked up fun and a great way in for Gulcher/Slippytown neophytes.
The Fag Tapes cultus staggers mindlessly on with a classy Roger Corman-style exploito compilation of supremely degraded live filth from a bucket full of contemporary actionists: Luasa Raelon (stars of that great Hive Mind collab), Odd Clouds, Taliban, Fe-Mail and the always killing Charlie Draheim. Comes with a blob of goo on the inside fer a change, so yr collection has a better chance of staying intact. Highly recommended as ever. Edition of 77 copies.
Follow-up to the great Time And Relative Dimensions In Space compilation with a two CD set once again dedicated to long-form drone works. Exclusive tracks from Birds Of Delay, Bruce Russell, Son Of Earth, The Opera Glove Sinks In The Sea, White/Light, Keenan Lawler, Bird Show/Lichens, Of…Ohv, The Zoo Wheel and The Gray Field Recordings.
Totally sick: celebrating Alchemy Records' 20th anniversary - and Japanese noise/rock legends Hijokaidan's 25th - major label bozos Imperial have stepped into the gulf with a series of definitive birthday sets. Alchemism is a massive two-disc overview of the activities of this consistently dazzling underground label complete with a fold-out sleeve that has colour cover shots of all the action, especially noteable for the lovingly executed Modern Lovers and Ash Ra take-offs from Ultra Bide and Christine 23 Onna. All tracks previously released except for exclusives from Tongue favourites Oshiri-PenPenz and Doodles. Also includes: Jojo Hiroshige, Ultra Bide, SS, Inu, Hoburakin, Idiot O'Clock, Sekiri, The Genbaku Onanies, The Continental Kids, Danse Macabre, Sob Kaidan, Genbaku Kaidan, Subvert Blaze, Sperma, Hanadensha, Garadama, Angel'In Heavy Syrup, Auschwitz, Tatsuya Kitajima, Tsumetai Iki No Mama, Miki Sawaguchi, Masonna, Merzbow, Incapacitants, Solmania, Hijokaidan, Seiichi Yamamoto, Omoide Hatoba, Totsuzen Dan-Ball, Christine 23 Onna and Chouzu. Highly recommended, naturally.
Follow-up to the first volume of this on-going series that joins the dots between an earlier generation of American Primitive guitarists and contemporary intuitive sound-as-thought players. Once again Jack Rose is featured (with an absolutely gorgeous 6 string re-think of "Cross The North Fork 2") but every other player puts in a first-time appearance on this volume. The inclusion of Christina Carter is a particularly inspired move and one that speaks of the liberated range of the series in general and her track is a beauty, a stubby acoustic guitar miniature. Nice cover snap too. Other tracks include a particularly mesmeric recording from UK guitarist James Blackshaw and contributions from Peter Lang, Jesse Sparhawk, Michael Chapman, Sean Smith, Fred Gerlach, Billy Faier, Sharron Kraus, Robbie Basho and...uh...Jose Gonzalez. Another rich, far-sighted assortment from this great label.
Excellent overview and the ideal way 'in' to the beautiful comedown sounds of classic Chilean psychedelic music. Packaged in the usual great cheesecake sleeves, this one bundles tracks from all of the main players from this fascinating late-60s/early-70s scene: the God-like Blops, Kissing Spell, Los Jaivas, Sacros, Aguaturbia, Los Mac's, Embrujo, Los Beat 4, Tumulto, Escombros, El Congreso and Congregacion. Highly recommended.
First ever CD-R release on Marc Pilley's Attic imprint, with his choice of the best tracks from the label's first year of cassette releases. Features The Upskirts, Black Sparrow Dress, The Zees, Tarra, Telegraph Meltz, Dustbowl, Zach Kerouac, Speakeasy, The Sermon, Saw and Holly Hollis.
Fantastic series of DIY canons based on concepts first elucidated by modern composer Larry Polansky in his Four Voice Canons series. Wickham-Smith (Tibetanist/ex-monk/juggler/Richard Youngs collaborator) describes Polansky's Four Voice Canon #13 as "a kind of open source meta canon score". Polansky distributed this score to various composers and made it available at talks and on the web and a number of composers took up his tools and created their own canons using a wild assortment of source material. For this beautiful double CD set Wickham-Smith has gathered a selection of the most beautifully whacked interpretations, with players like Philip Corner, Kyoko Kobayashi, Mike Winter, Steven M Miller, Drew Krause and Wickham-Smith himself. Source/voice material includes phones, ringtones, flutes, clarinet, Barbie phone, cats… "The pieces on this CD are all based on the ideas in Larry Polansky's four voice canons, a series of pieces he began in 1975. These canons are usually "mensuration canons", which means that the tempi of successive voices is proportional to their start times, so that the voices end together. They also use simple ideas of moving through a list of permutations, and applying the elements of those permutations to various musical parameters. A set of Polansky's canons was produced on Cold Blue Records as four voice canons (CB0011)." - from Wickham-Smith's notes. A great weird/avant/psychedelic/sound art series, with a booklet including notes from all of the contributors. Recommended.
Excellent compilation of contemporary dissident European electronic/synth/Industrial/new wave sounds from this synth-focussed label. The follow-up to their epochal Electronic Renaissance LP, this one bundles a bunch of current Euro-heads with a serious jones for the early Industrial sounds of DAF/Absolute Body Control/S.P.K./Throbbing Gristle/Kraftwerk along with touches of Suicide, Public Image Limited, Minimal Man et al. There isn't a duff track on the album but some of the highlights include Agent Side Grinder's evocative/magickal "There Is A Sound That Always Goes Out" that mirrors Coil's work circa "The New Backwards"/later-TG, the amazing Vincent K's "White Sheet Glory" that crosses Billy Synth-style keyboards with an amphetamine motorik appeal and throat-shredding vocals that make it sound like the most manic La Dusseldorf track of your life and the midnight stylings of Adolf Filter's beautiful Harmonia/DAF/Kraftwerk-esque "Inner Walls" cut up with the kinda fractured loner vocal that could almost be Peter Jeffries. Other artists featured include Dolina, Nosztalgia Direktiva, Codes, Le Triangle De L'Androgyne, the fantastically named Pierre Normal and Yseult Descieux. A great way in to the current underground Euro synth scene – which seems to have the same relation to its source material as the 80s garage explosion had to Nuggets et al – and an excellent companion piece to Poutre Apparent's historical survey of the French new wave scene. The set comes in a handsome gatefold sleeve with a bonus 7" and is highly recommended.
Massive tribute set of cover versions and punk extrapolations based around the phenomenal body of work birthed by Mr Jojo Hiroshige aka Alchemy label boss and Hijokaidan mainman. Features a totally disobedient Beefheart-style rave-up from the Oshiri PenPenz, microphone-gobbling action from Masonna (first new recording in years), great psych/pop stylings from Doodles, monstrously deformed guitar/noise from Solmania, GaramonKakinoki +AOL and a whole bunch of other punk Kansai Industrialists. Think of it as a particularly focussed Night Gallery instalment. Highly recommended.
Three-way split of extended live sets for this volume of Heath Moerland's (Sick Llama) compilation series, with jams from New Pledegemaster, Steve Kenney (Demons) and Slither all drawn from their recent tour. Hand-numbered edition of 50 copies.
This legendary run of live comps compiled by Heath Moerland of Sick Llama/Fag Tapes just keeps on keeping on. Hard to think of another cassette series that so perfectly expresses the mode of the underground circa now. This one features wild, murky jams from Sick Llama, Slither, New Pledgemaster, Cotton Museum and Steve Kenney (Demons). Hand-numbered edition of 50 copies.
Great limited triple LP set that bundles two nights of wild free jazz that Qbico presented in Detroit and Buffalo back in 2006. High energy sets from Arthur Doyle & Electro-Acoustic Ensemble, Andrew Barker & Daniel Carter, Steve Baczkowski & Ravi Padmanabha, Muruga Free Funk (with Perry Robinson), Faruq Z Bey & Northwoods Improvisers and Odu Afrobeat Orchestra.
Fantastic compilation of all unreleased tracks from this great NJ label. Exclusive jams from Julian Lynch, Pill Wonder, Ducktails, Fluffy Lumbers, Big Troubles, Andrew Cedermark, Frat Dad , Dana Jewell, Air Waves, Family Portrait, Alex Bleeker, Mountain Man, Real Estate, Rainbow Bridge and Liam the Younger.
Compilation featuring unreleased tracks from Connelly & The Machines, Body Morph, Hive Mind, Dog Lady and Drainolith: "So the other day, me and my lab buddy supreme Scott were knee f'in deep in trying to find out if a huge craggly motor was delta or wye three phase connected, and needless to say, was NOT having luck. It was a one of them RAW bologna built motors that has wire numbers, but its pointless cause its all on its own weirdo system. Whatever. So as usual, we shot the shit. "What's up this weekend man?" "Not much, got a killer afternoon gig at the spot on Sunday...." "What's a gig?" "Ah.... I'm having some of my weirdo friends over to make ah.... music...." "You make music?" "Sure" "Would you ever play a 'gig' for the troops?" "We should get black to that motor...I think I know the lead wires now..." "Well, I can't come over, I gotta fix my tires on my hunting jeep, but you know what would rule Olson?" "What's that?" "If you would press that jammer on wax, mix all the tracks together into one inzane mess and sent it to Smith out west to press...." "Man, you might be on to something" "Make it one long one-sider with a lock groove, I mean shit...that's how I remember gigs anyway.... and just use a flyer for the cover!!!" "My man!!!" So I took Scott's advice. Took the killer matinee jam, got out the scalpel, mixed everything together seamless inzane style, book ended it with an EVIL Hive Mind loop and boosh!!!! Pressed gig memory!!!! So it's just like a gig, except you don't have KNOX MITCHELL's dad dropping you off or Collino spilling brews everywhere or your secret recipe INZANE CHILLI remains burning up in the bottoms of an empty crock pot. Oddly, not a peep of crew-audience noise to be found. Dog Lady played acoustic string scrape, Dan Body jammed reed universe from the uneven side (and then BLASTED Disclose and Firmeza 10 in the jamm room), Drainolith is my main man Alex K from Montreal and kept it uber real with amazing synth scramble, live from yep, THE BASEMENT. Greh said he did a cover of THE SHINING but I've never seen that mini-series. Dead Machines and Connelly jammed magical pixie flutes, infected metal scrape and vocals from an eerie afternoon lagoon. Like an endless gig, ...you gotta SIT THRU THE WHOLE THING...in one inzane memory blurr surpreme.... Record ends with an EVIL Hive Mind lock groover, endless...party. ... forever.... Was a blast, more of this style to come. And BYOB!!! There are three party stores right in the hood, duh!!! 2pm SHARP!!!> Edition of 100 in handmade recycled sleeves, numbered." – John Olson.
Compilation featuring unreleased tracks from Full Scales, Spykes and Pool Water: "Is the Voltages Leads in Inductance or Induction leads Current in Capacitance? ?? Huh? Always forget this easy breeze system code to know which is leading in the Induct/Capt current game...Yeah: three tracks of attack: Full Scales: Live at Aries assault party from last Pan gig in April last year. Mega Hammond organ live in the basement. Spykes: Terrible tones tacked onto a tapestry of mangled inzanity thru a crazed mental plane. Horrible. Pool Water: Dog Lady, Connelly, Zone Force- live in the Comfort zone and on a trial leading to hiding places. Violin, flute, guitar = mixed together for an uncomfortable loose skin dangling in the dry wind. Three long tracks of ZEAL-ish style. Triple ack attack. Cover covers, numbered." – John Olson.
All proceeds from the sale of this release will go to Tom Carter. Read more about the appeal here: http://www.volcanictongue.com/tomcarterappeal
Edition of 500 copies compilation LP with exclusive tracks from Akron/Family, Joanne Robertson & Matthew Ashworth, Wand, Natural Snow Buildings, Married In Berdichev, Moon Duo, The See See and Seadog. Comes with a full colour zine featuring artwork by Jake Blanchard, Pete Fowler, Andrew Rae, Will Sweeney, Sarah King, Olange Gularte, James Trimmer/Mirt and Mat Pringle.
Still one of the wildest of the legendary Bloodstains comps, with a round-up of classic disobedient wastoid DIY from Sweden, inclduing classic sides like Kriminella Gitarrer's "Sylvias Unge", Rude Kids' amazing "Raggare Is A Bunch Of Motherfuckers", Watabout, Bugs, Glo, Usch, Brulbajz, Mizz Nobody, Butter Utter, Vicious Visions, Liket Lever, Blodarna...
Vinyl edition of this excellent tribute to the American Primitive genius of the late Robbie Basho from a bunch of players with a deep connection to the source including Glenn Jones, Steffen Basho-Junghans, Helena Espvall (Ghost/Espers), Meg Baird (Espers), Arborea, Fern Knight, Cian Nugent and Rahim AlHaj. Buncha female vocal tracks are particularly choice here, highlighting Basho's gift as a highly idiosyncratic singer as well as a visionary instrumentalist. Dedicated to the memory of Jack Rose. 180g vinyl, edition of 300 copies.
Necessary compilation of one of the most revered and whispered-about Japanese underground labels, Vanity Records. Vanity were briefly active in the late 70s and early 80s. Run by Agi Yuzuru, who also edited Rock Magazine, the label released 10 LPs, 3 singles, a double compilation, a bunch of cassettes and even a few flexi discs that came free with issues of the zine. Vanity offers a uniquely twisted vantage point on a creatively accelerated period, translating what was happening in the punk and No Wave scene in New York as well as the UK and European Industrial explosion via the Japanese aesthetic of Further. One of their most highly regarded releases was Tolerance's 1981 LP Divin, a long-term VT touchstone, a group that combined minimal Industrial electronics with primitive techno and the sound of the Japanese grid for the perfect nocturnal soundtrack. They're represented here with the classic TG whipcrack sound of "Sacrifice". Groups like Sympathy Nervous have a classic cracked middle-European new wave/synth deadpan quality but with drum machine and keys that come over like a home-recorded "Diamonds, Fur Coat, Champagne". Dada's amazing 1978 recording "Yuuen Inraku Gaki" combines wailing Far Out-meets-Fripp lead guitar over martial percussion and choirs of Popol Vuh-styled synth, directly connecting the new wave with earlier psych experiments. This one is up there with that phenomenal Onna 7" that came out on Holy Mountain: Julian Cope definitely needs to pick up on these guys. Mad Tea Party have a great stumpy idiot-avant appeal that anyone who digs Gasaneta/Guys N Dolls circuit will pretty much swoon. Phew's punk group Aunt Sally are represented with a self-titled track from 1979. Also features wild tracks from RNA Organism, BGM, Arbeit, Morio Agata, Normal Brain, Perfect Mother and Kiiro Radical. A secret history of yet another side of one of the most fertile experimental music scenes in the world. On white/pink spattered vinyl. Highly recommended.
Ass-blasting double LP compilation of wild Dutch punk, still some of the crudest ever spat to wax. Amazing tracks from Ivy Green ("I'm Sure We're Gonna Make It"), Helmettes, Panic ("Requiem For Martin Heidegger"), Flyin' Spiderz, Speedtwins, Paul Tornado, Suzannes, Tits, Mollesters, Filth, God's Heart Attack, Mecano Ltd, Subway, Mort Subite, The Brommers, Shith, Coitus Int. Vopo's, The Ex, Nixe, Rondos, Nitwitz, Trockener Kecks and Frites Modern. Excellent sleeve notes too.
Limited benefit CD-R arranged by the Hebden Bridge squad in less than 24 hours after Charalambides were forced to cancel their show there due to Tom Carter's sudden illness, all proceeds going directly to Tom: tracks from Ashtray Navigations, Neil Campbell, Spider Stacey, Dylan Nyoukis, Bridget Hayden, Astral Social Club, Rick Tomlinson, Konntinent, High Aura'd, Listening Mirror, Will Bolton, Isnaj Dui, Kyle Bobby Dunn, The Failed NASA Experiment and Caught In The Wake Forever.
ONE OF VOLCANIC TONGUE'S RECORDS OF THE YEAR 2013!Fifth and final volume of this ridiculously entertaining series, this time with "13 slices of slimy colonial grillfat and mindless Aussie boogie excursions" in an edition of only 300 copies: this is the long-time coming Australian volume of nada brain cell cock-rocking thug, proto-metal and junked-out glam and it just might be the stoopidest instalment yet, which makes sense as in many ways Australia is the spiritual home of Bonehead. Highlights include Toxic's ultra-fucked proto-punk "First Time" with production that comes over like The Prats mixing Raw Power, Head's street-fighting/street-sleeping anthem "Hobo", The Ash Band's failed fag end masterpiece "Let's Go", Fat Daddy's "Fat Funky Rock 'N' Roll", which does exactly what it says on the tin, King Harvest's sledgehammer assault on "Jumping Jack Flash", Geeza's amazing Bon Scott sleaze celebration "Sydney City Ladies" and more from Twister, Francis Butler's Sixty-Niners, Chook (!?), Sparkle, U Turn, Bullet and Macarthur. A suitably outrageous swansong for this sainted series. Edition of only 300 copies, already sold out at source, highly recommended!
Four-way split CD co-released with Smokers Gifts and Absurd by Phil Todd of Ashtray Navigations, with an eye on the contemporary DIY psychedelic underground in Yorkshire: mind-phasing guitar/sequencer jams that would dissolve Heldon in Folke Rabe's What from Shemboid, crude DIY electronics and eviscerated synth pop glossolalia from Phil Todd's Moral Holiday, cro-magnon synth/fuzz grunt from Foldhead aka ex-Smell & Quim member and Astral Social Club collaborator Paul Walsh and Joe Meek jams solo oscillator visions from Mel of Ashtray Navigations et al in her Ocelocelot guise. Looks like the north of England remain ground zero for blunt electro threat. Edition of 200 copies in circular die-cut covers.
Necessary reissue of this massive ground zero compilation covering the best of the Japanese 'group sounds' 1960s garage band explosion: this is a killer glimpse of the speed at which the Japanese underground evolved, with tracks from key first generation groups that featured players that went on to join the ranks of the likes of Flower Travellin' Band, Speed, Glue & Shinki, Les Rallizes Denudes and Foodbrain. Killer tracks by The Golden Cups, The Dynamites, Outcast, The Carnabeats, The Tempters, The Beavers (Japan's Zombies!), The Bunnys, The Mops' classic "I'm Just A Mop", The Spiders, D'Swooners, Zoo Nee Voo, Fingers, Outcast and The Bunnys. Comes with a large booklet with liners and snaps. Recommended!
CD debut for this killer series of pre-psych/prog garage band excess from the Japanese underground 1966-69: delirious selection here, with OTT tracks from legendary groups like The Beavers, The Carnabeats, The Spiders, The Voltage, The Mops, D'Swooners, The Bunnys, The Golden Cups and The Savage. Recommended. All tracks exclusive to this volume.

All tracks exclusive to this volume. Recommended.
Excellent new compilation from the people who brought us the recent Isengrind cassette that surveys the sounds of the new psychedelic music coming out of South America: this is blast from out of nowhere, with a bunch of groups, working in relative isolation but channelling the ghosts of precursors like the sainted Traffic Sound and Los Parajos via contemporary technology and DIY garage band formulas. Much of the music seems to connect at a tangent with the experiments of James Ferraro, Spencer Clark and Jan Anderzen, with small instruments, druggy/dubbed beats, extended cultic nod-out jams and an overall nocturnal 3am vibe but there's also a heady bedroom Krautrock vibe, with an endless, open space feel and the kinda fidelity that makes it feel like it is being broadcast via massed third eyes. Groups featured: False Sir Nicholas, Efrain Rozas, Tomas Tello, Titanik, Panchasila, Los Siquicos Litoralenos, Chico Tropico, Diego Bodego, O+YN and Brayan.
Original copies of this very rare 1972 poetry LP featuring readings from Allen Ginsberg, Diane DiPrima, Ed Sanders, John Giorno, Carol Berge, Ray Bremser, Ted Berrigan, John Wieners and Jim Silver. Released to coincide with the "Poetry International Festival" in Rotterdam June20-24th 1972. Comes with a thick 15 page staped mimeographed booklet featuirng texts of the performances. A beautiful set, elusive and highly recommended.
Classic live rip through one of Cul De Sac's classic readings of John Fahey's immortal "Portland Cement Factory" recorded live in a dazzling radio session from this always-amazing group, with "Hagstrom" on the flip. Glenn Jones sounds particularly fierce on this one. Edition of 1000 copies, OOP.
Massive new thug-punk moves from these Philadelphia-based crushers featuring Meg Baird and Richie Charles: Watery Love drive a steamroller through Bloodstains Over Birmingham while chicken-throttling Lou Reed's ostrich and wrapping the whole thing in the kinda rusty cod-pieces that would give the 'nod' to St Vitus, The Dictators, The Cramps *and* Tunnel Canary. In other words this is the kinda stoopid that takes smarts to pull off, and not just a record collection fulla spuzz. Formally fucked sludge doesn't come more slobbering.

Why my miscarriages were more painful than your labor.
This year has been tough on my husband and I. We have lost two pregnancies. The first loss was at 5 weeks 6 days and the second loss was at 7 weeks 2 days. We have been planning to have kids for quite a few years now. We both waited for the right time, the right jobs, medical, marriage, etc. It was the perfect plan to build a family… or so we thought.

State and local authorities have also received similar reports.
Consumers largely report that their homes were built in 2006 to 2007, when an unprecedented increase in new construction occurred in part due to the hurricanes of 2004 and 2005.

'Fairly Legal' Star Sarah Shahi Tops Maxim's 'TVs Hottest Girls' List
Former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader turned actress Sarah Shahi sizzles in her spread for Maxim magazine's October "TV's Hottest Girls" issue.
The gorgeous 32-year-old was named TV's Sexiest Star for her role on the USA Newtork's drama Fairly Legal.
The versatile actress got her start in Old School in a scene where she had to do a certain something with a cucumber. She also got to see Will Ferrell naked.
" Oh, I got to see Will in all his naked, hairy glory," she says. "Todd Phillips, the director, told us that Will was really nervous, so we shouldn't look at him. But my eyes were drawn to him like a moth to flame. I couldn't not look. His butt was like a flower. A really hairy flower."
Sarah also (quite famously) starred as a DJ on Showtime's lesbian drama The L Word and had a bit part on The Sopranos.
"That was a big deal for me, considering the number of people who watched that show and the role I had. To be able to manipulate Tony Soprano like that was pretty awesome. I mean, James Gandolfini and I went toe-to-toe," she says.
Check out Sarah's full interview in the October Maxim, on newsstands now; and read a little more on Maxim.com.

You are much younger than you think you are.
So, according to me, exceptions should be accepted.
Anyway, even if DoS don't hire you, please keep on writing here. I've learned a lot from your posts. It's very important to offer younger guys a chance to learn from your experience and brain.
Best Regards Joe (Sir)!

Report: Apple Testing Designs for Large-Screen HDTV
Tiffany Kaiser
December 12, 2012 3:01 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: blogcdn.com)
Apple's Asian supplier Hon Hai Precision Co. is working with Sharp on the designs
While Apple's iPhone and iPad are largely successful, there's one gadget the tech giant just can't seem to get off the ground:
Apple TV
However, a new report from
The Wall Street Journal
said that Apple may not be bombing out completely in the television realm as it's currently testing TV designs with component suppliers in Asia.
Two sources from some of Apple's suppliers confirmed that Apple is testing designs for a high-definition, large-screen TV set. They also mentioned that Hon Hai Precision Co. (which trades as Foxconn) is working with Sharp Corp. on the project.
While the TV is still in its earliest stages, this represents progress in
Apple's TV venture
, since products are usually developed and tested in-house before being sent out to suppliers. But it's important to keep in mind that Apple has tested many TV prototypes and this one may not make it to production, either.
Nevertheless, it's a spring forward for the successful tech company who could one day compete with the likes of Samsung, which is already a fierce competitor in the mobile hardware market. As far as television software, Apple could face competitors like Google with its own smart
Google TV
. Apple's iOS software for mobile devices already competes with Google's Android operating system.
Apple currently sells Apple TV, which is a
$99 digital media receiver
that plays content from the iTunes Store, YouTube, Netflix, Hulu Plus, etc. However, Apple wants Apple TV to be so much more. For example, a
game console, the ability to receive live content over the Web, live content from television networks, surf the Internet, record shows via a built in hard drive, watch Internet videos and play pictures/songs.
Apple's biggest issue with making that dream a reality, however, is its inability to strike a deal with content providers on cable networks for live television content. Comcast and CBS have rejected any affiliation with Apple TV, saying that it wants too much control over the content.
Apple has been fighting this battle with content providers since 2005, but has been unsuccessful so far.
But that doesn't mean Apple TV is a total lost cause. The tech giant was still able to strike deals with content streaming services like Netflix and Hulu Plus to provide content that can be viewed on a television screen. In Q1 2012, Apple sold 1.4 million Apple TV devices, which isn't too bad, but of course Apple is striving for a better product and better sales.
The Wall Street Journal
"Well, there may be a reason why they call them 'Mac' trucks! Windows machines will not be trucks." -- Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer
