Kids need their fathers
Happy Father's Day to all you dads and granddads. I hope you all are doing your fatherly duties – kids really need that, you know. Don't forget to say "thank you" for any and all gifts (great or small) you may have received. Did you get a special dinner? Kiss the cook.
Since it is Father's Day, I will tell you about my father, Capt. Carl Semon. Since I have never written about him, I thought it was about time.
He was born July 5, 1909, on a farm back of Stanleyville, Ohio, which is outside of Marietta about 11 miles. His grandparents had emigrated from Germany before his parents were born. One great-grandmother was so upset about the move that she is said to refuse to learn English and made everyone in her household speak to her in German. Why, I don't know. We think there is a deep story there, but so far haven't uncovered it. They had a choice of getting a farm along the Muskingum River in what is now Devola or a farm up in the high hills beyond Marietta. They chose the hills because it reminded them of the home they left in Bavaria. There, both Dad and his father were born.
From stories we have heard, Dad must have been very much like the teenagers today in liking to do whatever was fun at the time. Every young, he had a car – a Ford Roadster (wish we had that today.), and so must have been popular with the young ladies at that time. He graduated from Marietta High School in the same class as Carl Broughton in the 1920's. Not every child was able to go to high school back then, so his graduation was a big thing for the family.
He and his friend, Lloyd Schultheiss, went to work on the steamships on the Great Lakes, a profession he followed most of his life. He went from being the lowest on the totem pole to captain on the ships of the US Steel Co., sailing all the Great Lakes and being on the first freighter to traverse the St. Lawrence Seaway when it was built to give the lake ships an ocean port. They carried iron ore from the Minnesota mines to the steel mills on the lower lakes. They ran nine to 10 months a year during the warm weather, then had two to three months home during the winter.
He met Mother when he came home one winter and she was boarding with his parents as she taught school at Sugar Run School in Fearing Township. They were married on Oct. 25, 1934, and she continued to teach through the years and he continued to sail for US Steel. Maybe that was the secret to their happy marriage. She often said he never, ever raised his voice at her, but he surely could to us kids when we stepped out of line.
My brother, Bill, and I spent many happy weeks at the two grandparents' farms in the summertime while Mom visited Dad on the boats. Both sets of our grandparents were as stern as Mom was about working and behaving as "children should", so we got a solid background in good ethics with no relief and little chance to get into trouble. Our twin brothers, Dan and Dave, were born in November 1944, and Dad got to come home early for the winter.
The next February, while he was still home, his father died, and since he was the only son, Grandma didn't want him to go back to the lakes. He resigned from US Steel and tried farming. That is when we moved to the hilltop farm on which I now live. Those were the lean years, but we kids didn't know it. Dad and farming just didn't hit it off, so he and Mom talked it over and he went back to U.S. Steel (and a more dependable and better paycheck) and she taught school again to get the family out of the hole.
He retired in mid 1960's and they built their dream house in south Florida and lived there until he died. Most of us kids followed them to Florida, and it was great, having family dinners and fishing trips and beach picnics and the cousins growing up in the same area. Their house was on a "sailboat" canal in Cape Coral, and they could be in the Gulf in minutes. The Shrine Club was their Country Club and they kept a busy social and church activity schedule. Gradually, as the boys and I followed our own careers, only Mom and Dad were left in Cape Coral. They missed their family being around all year, so decided to build a new house back here on the hilltop in Ohio.
Dad died the January before they planned to move. Mom missed all the kids and I was the only one in South Florida at the time, so she wanted to come back "home." She built the home they had planned and lived there until she, too, died.
When I lived in Germany, Dad and Mom came over for a visit. We "did" Europe in the three weeks they were there and we all had marvelous and funny tales to tell about that trip. Dad climbed the Leaning Pisa Tower to the very top on a cold and blistery day. I was the only one to stand outside and wave to him on each level. We had an audience with the Pope in Rome on Ash Wednesday, ate grilled lamb on one of the hills in Rome, visited the castles in Bavaria, and saw more of the continent then most folks see on a tour. In Bavaria, Dad could speak and understand everyone, which the locals loved. He looked just like them, too, so there is no doubt where his family was from. The Hofbrauhaus in Munich was a highpoint to his trip. What a wonderful time we had.
Dad was what held our family together. He loved Christmas more than any other holiday – it was when he was always able to be with the family – and after he was gone, it just wasn't the same. So now, we all have our own small holidays and just remember the past ones when all of us were together. I miss you, Dad. If there is a Heaven, and I believe there is, then I know I have a lot of family waiting for me.
If you still have your Dad, give him a big hug today, and make some memories to hold onto in the years to come. God Bless all fathers.
The following recipes are from Mom's handwritten cookbook that she used while they lived in Florida. Enjoy.
Six medium potatoes (boiled in the jackets)
Six slices bacon
Three-fourths cup chopped onion
Two tablespoons flour
One to two tablespoons sugar
One teaspoon salt
One-fourth teaspoon pepper
One-half teaspoon celery seeds
Three-fourths cup water
One-third cup vinegar
Boil potatoes whole just until tender. Do not overcook. Peel potatoes and slice thinly. Fry bacon slowly in skillet, then drain on paper towels. Saut onion in bacon fat until golden brown. Blend in flour, sugar, salt, celery seeds and pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring until smooth and bubbly. Stir in water and vinegar. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly, until thickened and clear, about one minute. Gently stir in potatoes and the crumbled bacon pieces. Serve hot or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Then, heat thoroughly over low heat, stirring occasionally and very gently.
NOTE: I use caraway seeds instead of celery seeds and sometimes add thin slices of kosher dill pickles.
(This is a dish Mom concocted for a meal for Dad and her.)
One package macaroni and cheese, macaroni cooked as directed on package. In a skillet, brown hamburger (1/2 to one pound). Add one stalk celery, diced, and half of a large onion, diced. Cook this mixture on low heat until the macaroni has finished cooking and is done. To the meat mixture, shake in the cheese packet, one small can tomato sauce, and one package dry Italian Salad Dressing Mix. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Heat one and one-half cups milk. Add six cups shredded cabbage. Cover and cook three minutes. Make a paste of one and one-half tablespoons flour and one and one-half tablespoons butter and one-half cup cold milk. Stir into cabbage. Add one-fourth teaspoon salt and one-fourth teaspoon pepper. Cover and cook six minutes.
One-and-one-half lb. beef, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
Two tablespoons cooking oil
One (10 1/2 oz.) can condensed onion soup
One soup can water
One-fourth cup vinegar
One medium bay leaf
One-eighth teaspoon ground cloves
Four small carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
One small head of cabbage, quartered
One-third cup finely crushed gingersnaps
Brown beef in hot oil, and drain. Combine the soup, water, vinegar, bay leaf, and cloves in a Dutch oven. Add browned meat. Simmer, covered, one and one-half hours, stirring occasionally. Add carrots and cabbage and cook one more hour or until meat and vegetables are tender. Remove meat and vegetables from the broth and place in serving bowl. Add to the broth the crushed gingersnaps very slowly, stirring constantly until smooth and thickened. Pour over the vegetables and meat.
Pitcher of ice – pour over it an ordinary bottle of red wine, a quarter of a cup of brandy and a small bottle of club soda (10 oz.). Sweeten to taste with a quarter to half cup of sugar. Garnish with slices of apple, lemon and orange.
Three cups diced cooked chicken
One-and-one-third cup diced celery
Three tablespoons lemon juice
One cup seedless grapes
One cup toasted almonds
Mix well and chill.
One cup mayonnaise
One-eighth teaspoon pepper
One teaspoon dry mustard
One teaspoon salt
One tablespoon capers
Mix this together and mix with chicken mixture. Chill several hours. Serve on croissants or lettuce.

Pianist Esbjorn Svensson Dies
June 15, 2008. Posted by Joshua Jackson.Add new comment | Filed under: News, Notes, reuters
Reuters has reported that pianist Esbjorn Svensson died yesterday, during a
scuba diving excursion. He was 44 years old.
In 2001, I had the opportunity to interview the members of EST in New York,
just as the Swedish trio was gaining some recognition in the US. I say that
because they were already huge stars in their native Sweden. The show,
Introducing EST, coincided with the release of Somewhere Else Before.
Listen to it here. It includes some sections of that interview with Esbjorn,
Dan Berglund, and Magnus Ostrom, as well as a live in-studio performance.

For release: Friday, January 14, 2005
A drug designed to inhibit cholesterol production may also block the production of amyloid, a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In a mouse model of the disease the drug CP-113,818 reduced amyloid buildup by up to 99 percent and worked for up to 2 months without any evidence of toxicity. The study was funded in part by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS).
CP-113,818 was previously shown to reduce amyloid in nerve and other cells. The drug inhibits the cholesterol-modifying enzyme ACAT (acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase) that allows the buildup of amyloid. In the current study, investigator Dora M. Kovacs, Ph.D., director of the Neurobiology of Disease Laboratory at Massachusetts General Hospital and colleagues in the U.S. and Austria tested the hypothesis that ACAT inhibition would also inhibit the amyloid-beta peptide involved in AD.
The researchers first tested the drug on 18 non-transgenic mice over 21 days using different dose levels of slow-release pellets that were surgically inserted under the skin. The investigators studied dose levels ranging from 0.2 to 7.1 mg/kg per day. At the highest daily dose given, CP-113,818 reduced total cholesterol levels by 29 percent without any apparent effect on food consumption or body weight. Hepatic free cholesterol and cholesteryl-esters also decreased dramatically at lower doses, in a dose-dependent manner.
Slow-release pellets containing a 60-day supply of the highest dose of the drug per day were then surgically inserted under the skin of 12 mice specially bred to carry various forms of familial AD. Twelve control mice received a placebo pellet. The study was halted just before 2 months to ensure continued release of the drug. The scientists found no evidence of toxicity in mice receiving the drug and blood cholesterol levels were reduced to levels similar to normal mice.
Amyloid plaque was reduced by 88 percent in brain tissue in mice who received CP-113,818 and up to 99 percent in the hippocampus of the female transgenic mice. These findings, together with chemical analyses conducted on the mouse brains, suggest that the ACAT inhibitor prevents accumulation of newly formed plaques and is highly effective in reducing the amount of plaque already there.
The treated mice also performed better in a test of cognitive function.
Although CP-113,818 is not optimal for clinical testing in humans, a similar ACAT-inhibiting drug, CI-1011, is currently in phase III trials for vascular disease and atherosclerosis.
Researchers have previously shown that statin drugs (or statin-like compounds) can dramatically reduce amyloid pathology in different animal models when administered before amyloid begins to accumulate.
"Our findings suggest that slow-release administration of ACAT inhibitors may be a novel strategy to treat and prevent AD, either alone or in combination with statins," said Dr. Kovacs.
Diane Murphy, Ph.D., an NINDS program director for neurodegenerative disorders, said "Although much more work is needed before these inhibitors can be tested in humans, this study is a promising and exciting first step in determining if ACAT inhibitors could be given to patients to reduce amyloid in Alzheimer's disease."
The NINDS is a component of the National Institutes of Health within the Department of Health and Human Services and is the nation's primary supporter of biomedical research on the brain and nervous system.

Want to learn more about web design? Keep reading! The article below discusses insightful information that you can use to start your own web design journey. There is much to learn whether you're a pro or a beginner.
Before publishing your website, check it over carefully for any broken links. Visitors can get frustrated when they click a link and come across an error page. You can also check the links yourself or use a program to look.
Use shortcuts as often as you can. Nearly all facets of web design have shortcuts you can take, so the time you take to learn them once can save you time on everything over and over in the future. You can even find HTML codes that help you make quick changes.
Be sure to do good keyword research. The focus of your website design should always be to give your users a quality experience, but you cannot do that if you are never seen. To make sure that people find your website more easily, you'll need to learn what keywords are and how to use them effectively.
Free software is great to start with when you're getting into web design. Costly software is also available, but you can get good results with free tools since you are the main factor in the success of your site. With a little search effort on your part, the kinds of tools you need can be found, and for free.
Use ALT tags on your images. The tags are important because they allow people who struggle with vision to better use your site by translating what the image is to voice, and this works in a similar fashion for those who have images disabled on their device. If you use images as links, you can describe the link. And most importantly, search engine bots need to see the descriptions through ALT tags in order to help your search engine ranking.
White is a good choice for your page background color. If you use a white background, your content can end up being simpler to read -- and build trust in your site. If you make your background design too complicated, however, it'll distract your visitors and detract Simple is almost always the best option for background.
Make sure that your site is optimized for previous editions of Internet Explorer. Many people are still using the older versions of Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, many aspects of your site may not be compatible or displayed properly due to outdated rendering standards, so you may have to create some fixes for the elements that do not work properly. Read up on the so-called "box model bug" which has bothered IE users for a long time.
To be successful in web design, you must become familiar with HTML. You will need to work hard if you do not already know much about html5.
Designing your website and running it, requires your personal office space. Remove the distractions, and create a clutter-free, efficient space. Put your office supplies where you can reach them easily, and set aside enough space to allow you to design your site.
These tips will go a long way in building your knowledge of web design. Keep on learning, and you soon will be as comfortable as a professional.

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff

He had plenty of these fights. The result is the same- he win.
anybody with a logical mind not blinded by sheer fanboyism knows kabuto had several chances to kill both Uchiha bros.
I know for sure the one dragon sage jutsu would have easily been the death of sasuke, and itachi was done when he was caught tayuya's sound genjutsu.
It is not confirmed what happens if the summoner of Edo Tensei is killed so it is impossible to say if Kabato is top or not.

If the summoner is killed the jutsu will continue Itachi has confirmed it: http://www.mangareader.net/naruto/578/14
I think you don't know what "prime" means.
Question ? dosent kabuto have to put a kunai inside his edos in that timespan cant onoki destroy him, or kakashi kamui to the head (i know people will hate this but this is a great thread cause i hate kabuto but he's almost impossible to beat one on one so cut me some slack okay), or obito shinra tensei in conjucion with kamui (choosing only to decapitate kabuto), nagato demon statue doing to kabuto and if possible edos what it did to hanzos men, hanzo prime rushes at him like a madman with a bunch of paper bombs and comes into their explosive range possible by huging a confused kabuto and uses izangi to survive the explosion, or 6 paths of pain use shinra tensei and chakra absorption assuming hes not in sage mode yet destroying his chakra conrol and allowing orochimaru to take over or at least make kabuto open to attacks as he struggles to conrtol orochimarus dna, edo madara shinra tensei in conjuction with amatetsuru like MASSIVE amounts of amatetsuru
okay guys to be honet i dont think any of these guys or scenarios can beat kabuto in his prime especialy not if the question above is no if its yes then maybe they have a chance. and about all those edos i dont know how many wood clones edo madara or hashirama can make at their strongest so maybe they can make like 10 to 20 to hold off the edos while the original either hashirama or madara deals with kabuto or finally massive amounts of sage clones as much as tajuu kage bushin no jutsu allows then he gets into nine tails bm oand if he can then use tajuu to he might have a chance (maybe kurama will teach him quick ways to seal kabuto or something) if not hes screwed
again awesome thread i dont think anyone will find a way to beat kabuto but be warned fanboy logic is unpredictable an they are sure to come after you
Kabuto is not in his prime....
i think he just means kabuto at his best until know (allthough i know he's to young to be in his prime he'll probably never get this strong again, you know with orochimaru coming back and whatnot)
Yes he is very strong even without his edo's.

I congratulate those who truly desire equality for all people but in the case of homosexual marriage I believe you are misguided. Firstly homosexual relationships are already protected enough under Australian law including civil registers. Secondly for those who claim it is wrong to use a religious ideal to argue against it in our egalitarian liberal secular democratic society are actually denying the fact that the freedoms and strength of Western societies which we currently enjoy come from a Judeo-Christian worldview. Our Laws are based on the principles contained in the 10 Commandments and others which designate the roles of government & church as separate but supportive of each other. In the most recent Population Censuses 69% claimed to still believe in God despite the doomsayers. All our laws have a moral basis and it is important what morals are promoted within a society. Don't forget that Secular humanism has its own worldview based on religious/faith elements especially where Mankind is elevated to the position of god and Science is its saviour. Other cultures may have their views on marriage but we are talking about Australia and how we have grown strong while having our well established definition of family & marriage. I do not demand people have to get married but why would I want to see the meaning of marriage denigrated to include something that I consider a distorted picture of a person's sexual identity and view of life? Don't take my word for it look at the following quotes. One homosexual writer, Andrew Sullivan writes that if homosexual marriage contracts come into force, they would have to be "different": that is, they would have to allow for "extra-marital outlets" and other major changes.
Of course that undermines the very essence of marriage, which is the covenant of life-long sexual faithfulness. Sullivan also speaks about the "foibles of a simple heterosexual model" for homosexual relationships.
Same-sex marriage proponent Richard Mohr openly affirms the importance of "flexibility" in same-sex unions. He is unashamed in saying this: "Monogamy is not an essential component of love and marriage."
Already demands are being made for access to IVF and adoption of children like in normal marriages.
My personal concerns are well-founded and not extreme. I want people to clearly understand what is at stake for our nation if we continue down this slippy path in law where perversion is promoted as good.

A fundamental cornerstone for spintronics that has been missing up until now has been constructed by a team of physicists at Linköping University in Sweden. It's the world's first spin amplifier that can be used at room temperature.
Great hopes have been placed on spintronics as the next big paradigm shift in the field of electronics. Spintronics combines microelectronics, which is built on the charge of electrons, with the magnetism that originates in the electrons' spin. This lays the foundation for entirely new applications that fire the imagination. The word "spin" aims at describing how electrons spin around, much like how the Earth spins on its own axis.
But turning theory into practice requires amplifying these very weak signals. Instead of transistors, rectifiers, and so on, the building blocks of spintronics will be formed by things like spin filters, spin amplifiers, and spin detectors. Through regulating and controlling electron spin, it will be possible to store data more densely and process it many times faster – and with greater energy efficiency – than today's technology.
In 2009, an LiU group from the Department of Functional Electronic Material, led by Professor Weimin Chen, presented a new type of spin filter that works at room temperature. The filter lets through electrons that have the desired spin direction, screening out the others. This function is crucial for constructing new types of components such as spin diodes and spin lasers.
Now the same group, in collaboration with colleagues from Germany and the United States, has published an article in the highly-ranked journal Advanced Materials, where they present an effective spin amplifier based on a non-magnetic semiconductor. The amplification occurs through deliberate defects in the form of extra gallium atoms introduced into an alloy of gallium, indium, nitrogen and arsenic.
A component of this kind can be set anywhere along a path of spin transport to amplify signals that have weakened along the way. By combining this with a spin detector, it may be possible to read even extremely weak spin signals.
"It's an advance that blazes a trail for a solution to the problem of controlling and detecting electron spin at room temperature, which is a prerequisite for the breakthrough of spintronics," says Weimin Chen.

Columbus detectives started a furious search on the evening of Sept. 20, 1982, when Linda Garner reported that her 8-year-old daughter, Kelly Prosser, had failed to return to her University District home after school.
Police knew that a heavy-set, bearded man had tried to abduct an 8-year-old North Side girl three days before. And they were mindful that no one had been charged in the abduction and slaying of Asenath Dukat, an Upper Arlington third-grader, two years before.
Kelly, a third-grade student at Indianola Alternative Elementary School, then at 140 E. 16th Ave., was last seen walking west on 16th Avenue toward N. High Street. She never made it the dozen or so blocks north to her Tomkins Street home. Garner reported Kelly missing when she returned home from work at 6 p.m. The police search was thorough but fruitless. Two days after Kelly disappeared, her body was found in a Madison County cornfield, about 5 miles north of Plain City. An autopsy revealed she had been beaten, sexually assaulted and strangled.
At a funeral service several days later at Rutherford Funeral Home, the Rev. Joseph E. Henson, pastor of the nearby North United Methodist Church, urged mourners "to have the strength of our convictions to do our best to see that there are no more."
He said, "There is nothing that I can do for Kelly today. She has found her peace. But I can find no rest, and I can find no peace when I realize there will probably be other young boys and girls who will have to suffer."
Henson read the 23rd Psalm at a brief graveside service at Union Cemetery and, as final remembrances of Kelly, gave mourners pink flowers from a spray resting on the child's small, white-and-gold casket.
Neither Asenath's nor Kelly's killer was ever caught.

Suman Gupta [1964]
a Jammu based artist, interfaces with realistic style, which marks it as his visual language, for expressing his feelings and desires as his artistic statements. Sumans works are realistically rendered but undergirded with his individual vision. His realism is not simply a perceptual exercise paying homage to nature. Rather through his realistic language he creates a metaphoric and a philosophical dialogue making nature an interventionist element. Having grown up in the land of mountains in Kashmir, Sumans landscape are a take on his experiences and
engagements with diverse aspects of nature from its sublimity to its spectacular, dramatic, awesome and frightening conditions and effects. And the inspiration to work with almost photographic realism has been Andrew Wyeth, an American painter. In addition he also gestures towards the people inhabiting his land their toils, aspirations, hopes and despairs. Harnessing his cultural ethos, Suman delineates his experiences anchored from his region. Suman's rural inspired frames; whether a village in the kandi belt of Jammu or a kaleidoscopic scene from a Rajasthani village, are his mainstay. Says Suman, "I call it 'romanticizing the visual' while pursuing the mind images. Depicting the people in everyday actions, a tree here, a landscape there during my wandering in the countryside, the hills and the highlands around the place of my origin." The existentialist angst which the artist underpins in his works are seen in single protagonists as the boy whose childhood joys and carefree amblings are lost in eking out a survival.

25th Annual Studio Tour - St. Lawrence County
25th Annual Artists' Studio Tour – November 10th, 11th, 12th
The St. Lawrence County Arts Council is proud to celebrate the silver anniversary of the annual Artists' Studio Tour on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, November 10th, 11th, 12th, featuring 45 artists at 21 different sites around St. Lawrence County. This free self-guided tour is an opportunity to see the creative process first hand. You can visit artists and watch them in action as they create hand-crafts ranging from jewelry to stone sculptures. All of the artists will have a selection of items for sale for gift shopping. This is also an excellent opportunity to learn more about skills like throwing pottery on a wheel, designing and sewing clothing, braiding rugs, and carving stone.
During the Studio Tour, you can travel at your own pace and visit artists and studios that interest you with the help of a free tour brochure. It includes a map, driving directions, and information about each artist and site. This year there are studio sites in Potsdam, Parishville, Colton, Canton, Rensselaer Falls, Ogdensburg, Winthrop, and Hogansburg. The participating artists offer a wide range of artistic styles and media. Many of the artists will also present demonstrations as part of the tour.
There are several new studios the tour this year, including The Riverflow Studio in Winthrop with colorful acrylic paintings by Marion Bradish, and the Gallery of Art and Learning in Canton, featuring work by NYSARC artists. At Jahn Greyhawk's studio you'll find paintings and museum-quality Native American clothing and accoutrements, and Kathy Montan will be sharing her love of wool in felted jewelry and sculptures at her new studio.
A special site on the tour is the Hogansburg Senior Center, which will host Akwesasne artisans and their work, including: glass etching by Julie & Hilary Jacobs, paintings by Daniel White, beaded earrings by Loretta Smoke, moccasins by Barbara Smoke, handmade soap by Crystal Oakes, and soapstone sculptures by Cheyenne Doxtador.
In Potsdam, at the SLC Arts Council's Gift Shop & Gallery on Market Street you can see glasswork, felted critters, paintings, and photography by Malone-area artists as part of the Mixed Mediacs exhibit. Visit the SLC Arts Council's studios on the second floor of Downtown Snell Hall to find three artists with very different styles: mixed media and ceramics by Sara Lynch, illustrations and custom greeting cards by Leigh Chapman, and fused glass and upcycled jewelry by Christina Adams.
Pick up your free tour brochure to learn more about all the artisans participating in this year's Artists' Studio Tour. Brochures are available at area libraries, chambers of commerce, and other arts organizations and businesses around the region. You can also stop by the SLC Arts Council at 51 Market Street in Potsdam to pick up a copy, or call the Council to have a brochure mailed directly to you. North Country Public Radio is a media sponsor for the Artists' Studio Tour. Call the SLC Arts Council at 315-265-6860 or visit www.slcartscouncil.org for more information regarding this special event.

Common's The Dreamer, The Believer
Posted 16 December 2011 - 03:48 PM
On first listen, though, I was a little disappointed. To me, the production was less about the warm, melodic sound heard on Common's best albums like Be and was more about straightforward samples and drums. On top of that, Com's songwriting and subject matter on the album never really made an impression on me.
What are your thoughts on it?
Posted 17 December 2011 - 02:44 AM
coldplay rap

Also, all tracks are produced by No I.D., so no Kanye beats on this album.
Posted 24 December 2011 - 10:01 PM
where the fuck is the hip-hop/boom-bap/soul he alluded to returning to? Fuck this album it's so bubblegummy and trying to be poetic and deep that its just soooooooooo mediocre.
Posted 24 December 2011 - 10:50 PM
Common. I dont know man, he just doesnt do it for me.
Posted 24 December 2011 - 10:52 PM
Appealing to the military demographic. Classy. And real hip hop for sure.

What really does it for me tho is the whole troop coming home thing in the celebration video.
Appealing to the military demographic. Classy. And real hip hop for sure.
Yeah, "Celebration" is a great song, especially for this time of year — I'll be bumpin' it on NYE for sure. I wish there were more songs like it quality wise on the album, though.
Posted 26 December 2011 - 04:47 PM
Ok i have to admit that i don't always like No I.D's drums...and i can't understand why Common is tryin to be this macho ladiesman at this day and age especially when he is known as a conscience rapper....
Still i have to say the album as whole had a nice consistent mature loungin' type of feelin to it...kinda reminded me of Masta Ace's "a long hot summer" ( don't ask me why ) ...makes me think that if this album dropped a decade ago that it would be much more appreciated...all and all a dope solid album

How to eliminate mold during home rehab?
Mold -- Is it possible to eliminate mold as part of a home rehab project without hiring an all-out mold professional? Will it be sufficient to remove all the drywall, scrub and bleach the wood behind (or replace anything damaged), and stop the sources of water intrusion? Did you deal with mold as part of a major fixer-upper? [more inside]

Strikeforce bantamweight title-holder Ronda Rousey has grown leaps and bounds since turning from judo to a life in MMA. Now, the former Olympian has decided to expand her skills on a regular basis by joining UFC fighters Nick Diaz and Nate Diaz in Stockton.
Rousey talked about an upcoming trip to Cesar Gracie's camp, where the Diaz brothers amongst others, train, in an interview with MMAWeekly Radio where she said, "I'm going up there from the 3rd to the 16th and it's going to be the first time ever since I started doing MMA that I'm going to be training for an actual extended period of time away from my core camp, who I've always been with."
"When I did judo I used to go around all the time, like every month or so I would go away for a week or two weeks to go train somewhere else. For some reason, it's something I never did in MMA, so they invited me to come train up there," added the 25-year old champion, also saying she planned to stop there in the future too while preparing for opponents.
Rousey defeated Miesha Tate to secure the belt with an Armbar earlier this month. Her next opponent is likely to be Sarah Kaufman who earned a victory over Alexis Davis on the same show.

I guess he doesn't know Klingon.
Too many people could translate klingon
Probably a dialect that Cafe Alexa doesn't speak.
Apparently, according to the Internet, this is some form of Italian language that is difficult to learn and use. This was the language of the workers and many Italians upon coming here will stop using it and will not teach it to their kids. My parents were fluent in a lot of foreign languages that they didn't bother to teach us out of sheer laziness. But they claim it was for purposes of assimilation and "self esteem." It's like saying you don't want to mow the lawn for fear of wearing out the lawnmower. If they were so worried about assimilation, then how does it look to be dirty, badly clothed, starving and wandering the streets all day and night? Of course they weren't worried about how we assimilated. It's just a fancy sounding excuse for utter sloth.
I have a friend who's mother immigrated from Poland and all his mother spoke was Polish. When he started school he couldn't speak English. He was so mortified that when he learned English he never spoke or answered to Polish again which forced his mother to learn conversational English! By the time he was in high school he had completely forgotten how to speak or understand Polish. He didn't mind and I always thought it was such a shame.
Well, then my dad had not have been lying. He had a lot of stories like this to tell me. I always thought they were apacryphal.
Jon Hra: I am in a "predominately Hispanic congregation" over half of whom cannot speak fluent Spanish – and some of those who can have English, German, or French surnames and learned it as a second language.
My parents came here from PR and only knew Spanish, so we grew up only speaking Spanish at home. When my older brother started school, the teacher sent a note home and said that he could not continue to attend class unless he spoke only English. So he refused to listen to anything my parents said to him in Spanish and would only speak to them in English. Eventually, he forgot the Spanish. I was lucky. I continued to talk to my parents in Spanish and to my brother in English and learned the best of both worlds. Unfortunately, since I have no one to speak Spanish with any longer, I lost the conversational part of it, but I can understand every single word in a Spanish conversation.
I did not speak English when I started Kindergarten, but soon learned. It's easy at that age. I grew up fluent in two languages and have since added several more. I spoke to my parents in English, and to my grandparents in Ukrainian. It would have been extremely rude to speak English to them. Growing up bilingual is an incredible advantage.
I suspect a lot of Pop's "recipes" call for "a dash of this" and "a dab of that." Hard to capture in writing.
"Growing up bilingual is an incredible advantage."
It sure is. But some parents don't care about that, because they think it's all about them. Then, later when visiting relatives my dad would wave his hands in fake frustration, as if I had stubbornly refused to learn when he tried to teach. The relatives would look at me disapprovingly, and say I was too Americanized. Funny that I was the only child who would bother to visit relatives. My sisters were too proud to let this junk happen to them. My older brother had gotten a little too rustic to take out in public.

Add Mute feature
Sometime some people crazy on tweet, and we wanna mute her tweet for one day
Add a mute option for profiles, pronto.
People go on rants that I don't want to see.
Add a mute feature. Also I cannot open links from a camera tweet. Error is page not found.
Game updates that I've blocked in FB are showing up in my hootsuite Facebook feed. Any way to stop this? Very annoying...
Hi there! Thanks for reaching out to us!
We're happy to announce that in the latest version of the HootSuite iOS mobile app (version 2.5.4), you are now able to mute users directly from their user profile view. In addition, you can mute for either a preselected or custom time.
Thank you graciously for your patience, and thank you for using HootSuite!

Is this available in the main client? Or just on the iOS app. Seems strange if the latter.
April commented
I would actually like to be able to mute certain hashtags ex. a sports game or tv show.
grizeldagloop commented
I would love this feature. I really miss it. (I had Echofon/Windows).
I don't think there should be a time limit though, mute forever but we should be able to unmute whenever we want to.
Andy Ducker commented
Muting a user for a day, a week, a month or forever would be great. Also muting Apps like 4Sq and also designated Hashtags
kuma_tan commented
nice idea!! but i think one day isnt enough for some kind ppl.
forever is best ;D
Bella Bowie commented
I agree. I was so excited about all the time I thought I was going to save when I signed up to Hootsuite the other day that I was going to go Pro. Now, all I see are games in my feed that I already blocked in Facebook. Is there any fix in the works for this?
TomTheBert commented
Agreed. This is a great app, but I really could care less about frontierville. It clogs up my feed which pretty much makes the fb feed useless.
Anonymous commented
I just started using hootsuite. I have been using Facebook for iPhone. All those game requests were blocked. Now in hootsuite I get pages of game requests. It is enough to make me not want to use this app. I hope a fix is planned soon.
Trenton Talbot commented
I would also love to have an option to mute a user in a particular timeline. For example, I am running 2 twitter timelines side by side, and don't like to see redundant tweets.

this one was made more to further test different brush possibilities in digital inking..mm funtimes. this is btw ballistid from an old top cow comic, cyberforce
how long did that take you?
you've got a thing for tough ass chics that look like they can do some serious damage... totally in love with your style
Ballistic!!! Wow!!!! That brings me back. O_O Didn't know you had this drawing; I'm glad I browsed your work...again.
Wasn't Ballistic's Eye and arm supposed to be on her right side
Great texture effect on the boot highlights with the brushes. It's great seeing a tough looking woman without the cleavage popping out (if only for a moment) . Brilliant work as always with your inimitable style.
Brilliant work
I have no words!
This is true art!
This is true art!
I've always wanted to ask - how do you achieve that level of detail in your work? It's gotta take an incredible amount of time!

Well done, I love this and the gun is especially amazing, as is her armor and the wall texture
amazing !
I love sniper girls.
i love this black & white art, it's different than average b&w art, is so clean!
I always found campers to be perfect grenade bait. Either they stay and get blow up, or they run right into the open.
maybe the hair-ish cross hatching on the wall was too much, but i really like how you did the black parts with some texture and stuff on it. legs looks also brilliant. i'd read this comic
"Its a legitimate strategy!" Love this shot though seriously, not to mention the expression on her face. Great stuff
The scaley underoos are so typically 1st gen Top Cow, haha. I love it~
I remember cyberforce, great comic. Ballistic was aggressive, but yours is even more. Great artwork!!
haha love it
Awesome. Great concept. I love ballistic.
You HAVE to do a Vid tutorial on these pics!! PLEASE!!!

[quote=lola;133841]Can someone please help me with these exercises as I think I'm getting them wrong. Thanks you for your help.
Consider the dihedral groupD4, and let and be defined in the usual way. Show that = −1, and hence that k = −k. Thus show that k has order 2 for any k.[quote]the symbols are messed up here. though i am not sure what a dihedral group is
LetG = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h}, and let *be a group operation on G. A partial Cayley table for *is attached.
1.Complete the Cayley table above [hint: the operation must be associativedo you know what associative means. fill out the table so that a*(b*c) = (a*b)*c for all a,b,c in the group. Note that a is the identity element.
2. Write down <a>, <b>, <c>, <d>, <e>, <f>, <g>, <h>, <b,e>, <c,e>these are subgroups generated by the said element.
so <a> = {1 = a^0, a^1, a^2 , a^3, ... } = {1, a , a*a, a*a*a, ...}
do that until you exhaust the table (of course you have to fill it out first).
for things like <b,e>, this is the subgroup generated by all products of b and e.
i think they want you to write G = <x,y> for some x,y in G. And do this twice. Perhaps this will become clearer after doing part 2.
3. Write the elements of G as products of two fixed generating elements (you may use
1 to denote the identity).
4.Show that (tell me what D_4 is and i might be able to help.G,*) is not isomorphic to D4 [Hint: question 1, order of elements] or
to Z/4Z × Z/2Z.
5. Show that <to show <b> is normal, we must show that for all . just go through the table and verify that this holds.b>is normal, and write out the left cosets of this subgroup.
the left cosets will be:
<b> = {1, b, b^2, b^3, ... }
a*<b> = {a,ab,ab^2,ab^3, ...}
c*<b> = { ...}
and so on. do this until you exhaust all the elements of G
Then give
the group table forto do this, you must pick one element out of each of the sets above and make a table with them similar to how they did for G. note that when you take the product of your representatives you may get something that is not a representative. In that case, choose the representative that is in the coset of the element you get. use [ ] brackets to denote your representative. like, use [1] to be the representative for the first coset i have above, this represents the set {1,b,b^2,b^3,...}G/<b>.
6. Give an isomorphism fromi will have to think about this more. I would probably need the answers to the previous questions to answer this, and I am too lazy to do them myself nowG/<b>to either Z/4Z or Z/2Z × Z/2Z. In the othercase, explain why no isomorphism exists.
Sorry I could not be of much help. I just started (a basic course in) abstract algebra myself

|Beating the Winter Cold
|Tuesday, December 03, 2013
Sinusitis means "inflammation of the sinus cavities." This happens when sinuses are exposed to anything that might irritate the membranous linings, including dust and pollution, cigarette smoke, and other irritants. Allergic reaction to mold, pollen and so forth may also irritate the nasal linings. Also, infection with a virus may irritate the nasal linings. All of these factors may cause the narrow openings in the nose and sinus cavities to narrow even further or even to shut entirely, and can lead to a bacterial infection.
We now know that sinus problems can often be resolved or controlled by managing the sinus problems at the main sinus drainage opening -- the osteomeatal complex or OMC.
In general, the OMC can be blocked by mucosal swelling or anatomic obstruction. The causes are commonly reversible with the right medical treatment. In general, medical management of sinusitis may include one or more of the following: Antibiotics, topical and systemic decongestants, topical nasal lavage, nasal saline sprays, humidification, mucolytics, decongestants, and steroids.
Medical therapy must be overseen by a doctor. Some medications for sinusitis must not be taken if a patient has other medical conditions (i.e., high blood pressure or pregnancy).
If you are a sinus sufferer, one reason you may have more problems than others is allergy. Allergy is not just a springtime event. Some patients have winter allergies to things such as dust mites or mold. Allergy testing can indicate what you are allergic to, as well as what environmental changes can improve your health. We no longer use shots, but instead use allergy drops that you take orally. We find that allergy drops are just as effective for our patients but do not require a weekly visit to our office, and do not require a shot!
Asthma sufferers should know that sinusitis can actually exacerbate asthma. The post-nasal drainage of diseased sinuses can irritate the reactive airways of asthmatics. Many patients who have successful treatment of their sinuses find that their asthma also improves.
Sometimes structural problems predispose you to sinus issues. A deviated septum, sinus polyps and other things can mechanically block your sinus and nasal passages. In our offices, we evaluate you for the various causes of sinus problems. We can determine if you have allergies, or if you just have general sensitivities. We can examine the inside of your nose with a thin lighted telescope (called an endoscope) that will help us identify a deviated septum, sinus polyps, and other mechanical problems.
Dr. Daniel G Becker is an ENT and Facial Plastic Surgeon for KHS. For more information, go to www.noseandsinus.com or call (856)589-6673 to schedule an appointment.

A time of untold chaos has come. Mighty forces clash behind the scenes in a struggle for power and influence. Northern Kingdoms mobilize their armies and prepare for war. But armies on the march are not enough to stop a bloody conspiracy. Someone is hunting crowned heads.
Every assassination attempt intensifies the chaos, and might truly does make right these days. Cruelty and violence have become daily fare... Do you dare stand alone among the mighty forces that are fighting for power over the Northern Kingdoms? Do you truly dare?
After helping to stop the rebellion undertaken by the Order of the Flaming Rose and saving King Foltest's life, Geralt became one of the central figures of political turmoil in the Kingdom of Temeria. Geralt continues to protect the King in the monarch's mission to bring peace to his state. The only remaining task is to pacify the rebellious castle of Baroness La Valette, who announced separation from the Kingdom.
It's been a month since the attempted assassination of the king, when his army arrives at the gates of Baroness La Valette's fortress in preparation for the final battle. In the meantime, Geralt, stuck with Foltest, cannot begin his personal quest - to discover the origin and identity of the mysterious witcher-like assassin...

One of the biggest fears of NHL teams during the lockout is having their best players suffer injuries while playing in overseas leagues.
Many of these players are vital to their NHL team's chances of competing for a playoff spot, so losing them for any amount of time during a shortened season would be a tough obstacle to overcome.
Let's look at five notable NHLers who have suffered injuries recently while playing overseas during the work stoppage.

I'm not a piano player but a piano tech.
The good news is, 48" is a good size for a vertical ("studio" size...don't get nuthin' smaller) and 1300 is a GREAT price(!) for a studio, espcially with delivery and two tunings included.
The bad news is, i think it was made by Samick and that ain't great, especially a few years ago. You might ask your piano player friends how they feel about Samick uprights or, better yet, get one of them to go play it.
Normally it's a good idea to get a tech to check it out but i assume if the dealer is a friend, you don't need to worry about anything structural being wrong with it (?)
By comparison, you gotta figure something like a used Yamaha in that size would be at least 3 grand, up (and up a lot, i should add).
You might expect to hear piano players bitch about it but i'm always amazed at how good a good piano player can make a crappy piano sound.
Good luck.

You have no items in your shopping cart.
This print started out as a baseball card more than twenty years ago. Every aspect of it is designed to preserve the original look and feel of the card, from the printing pattern to the slightly worn edges. In fact, this print started by finding the actual card in our vault and then painstakingly re-mastering it with a team of designers. The authenticity extends to manufacturing; each print is made on high-quality, cotton fine art paper that measures 1/64 inches in thickness. Framed prints feature 2-inch flat wood or metallic frames with high-end, glare-resistant glass. And all prints are officially licensed by MLB and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
STORYJoe Nolan was bumped as the backup catcher in 1984, the year of this Topps card. Thus he rarely played, getting in a few games as DH and even fewer as catcher. He got only 62 at-bats and hit .290. His last big-league homer came April 18 at Toronto off Dave Stieb.

|Preventing MRSA
|Page 2
|All Pages
Reports reflect a nationwide epidemic of MRSA in the US — one that has significantly increased over the past seven years. A 2007 report in Emerging Infectious Diseases, a publication of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, estimated that the number of MRSA infections treated in hospitals doubled nationwide, from approximately 127,000 in 1999 to 278,000 in 2005, while at the same time deaths increased from 11,000 to more than 17,000.
Worldwide, an estimated 2 billion people carry some form of S. aureus; of these, up to 53 million (2.7% of carriers) are thought to carry MRSA. In the United States, 95 million carry S. aureus in their noses; of these, 2.5 million (2.6% of carriers) carry MRSA. A population review conducted in three U.S. communities showed the annual incidence of CA-MRSA during 2001–2002 to be 18–25.7/100,000; most CA-MRSA isolates were associated with clinically relevant infections, and 23% of patients required hospitalization.
Cystic fibrosis patients are often treated with multiple antibiotics, which must be administered in a hospital setting. Frequent hospital visits can increase exposure to MRSA, potentially increasing the rate of life-threatening MRSA pneumonia in this group. The risk of cross-colonization has led to the increased use of isolation protocols among these patients. In a hospital setting, patients who have received fluoroquinolones are more likely to become colonized with MRSA;this is probably because many circulating strains of MRSA are fluoroquinolone resistant, which means that MRSA is able to colonize patients whose normal skin flora have been cleared of non-resistant S. aureus by fluoroquinolones.
In the United States, there have been increasing numbers of reports of outbreaks of MRSA colonization and infection through skin contact in locker rooms and gymnasiums, even among healthy populations. A study published in the New England Journal of Medicine linked MRSA to the abrasions caused by artificial turf. Three studies by the Texas State Department of Health found that the infection rate among football players was 16 times the national average. In December of 2007, a high school football player died from MRSA-infected turf burns.MRSA has also been found in the public school systems throughout the country.
MRSA is also becoming a problem in pediatric settings, including hospital nurseries. A 2007 study found that 4.6% of patients in U.S. health care facilities were infected or colonized with MRSA.[50] One 2008 study concluded that men living in predominately gay ZIP codes in San Francisco are 13 times more likely to be infected by one strain of MRSA than their heterosexual neighbors.
MRSA causes as many as 20% of Staphylococcus aureus infections in populations that use intravenous drugs. These out-of-hospital strains, or CA-MRSA, are more easily treated, though more virulent, than HA-MRSA. CA-MRSA apparently did not evolve de novo in the community but represents a hybrid between MRSA that spread from the hospital environment and strains that were once easily treatable in the community. Most of the hybrid strains also acquired a factor that increases their virulence, resulting in the development of deep-tissue infections from minor scrapes and cuts, as well as many cases of fatal pneumonia.
As of early 2005, the number of deaths in the United Kingdom attributed to MRSA has been estimated by various sources to lie in the area of 3,000 per year. Staphylococcus bacteria account for almost half of all UK hospital infections. The issue of MRSA infections in hospitals has recently been a major political issue in the UK, playing a significant role in the debates over health policy in the United Kingdom general election held in 2005.
On January 6, 2008, half of 64 non-Chinese cases of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococus aureus (MRSA) infections in Hong Kong in 2007 were Filipino domestic helpers. Ho Pak-leung, professor of microbiology, University of Hong Kong traced the cause from high use of antibiotics. In 2007, there were 166 community cases in Hong Kong compared with 8,000 hospital-acquired MRSA (155 recorded cases — 91 involved Chinese locals, 33 Filipinos, 5 each for Americans and Indians, and 2 each from Nepal, Australia, Denmark and England).

CHARLOTTE (AP) - Paul Silas, who moved gracefully from a backup role to transform the Charlotte Hornets into a winning team, signed a $6 million contract Tuesday to coach the NBA club for the next four seasons.
Silas, 55, was an assistant when coach Dave Cowens resigned in March in a salary dispute. When Silas took over as interim coach, the team's record was 4-11.
Behind Silas, the Hornets put together a 22-13 record, including nine straight victories in one stretch, and missed making the NBA playoffs by one game.
"He was thrown into a situation where no one expected much," said Hornets forward Anthony Mason, who has one year remaining on his contract. "We share the same mentality, and we both want to win just as much."
A popular choice among the Hornets players, Silas said he was surprised when he got a phone call last week from Hornets owner George Shinn, who asked to meet with him at the airport.
"I intended to come in with my best poker face for the negotiations," Silas said. "But when I saw the offer, I broke into a big grin. I guess I blew it."
The contract includes a guaranteed $4.5 million over three years, with an optional fourth year, according to media reports. The team did not disclose the terms.

གྲུབ་ཐོབ་བརྒྱད་ཅུ་རྩ་བཞིའི་ལོ་རྒྱུད།Acarya Abhayadatta Sri, Hardcover, CIHTS, $35.00
The Cloud of Nectar is Oriol Aguilar's annotated translation of
the biography of Nyagla Pema Ddul, a 19th century master, terton, and
well-known exponent of the practice and realization of Total Perfection
(Dzogchen) written by Yeshe Dorje.
This book is a translation of pages 84 to 165 of The Great History of the Innermost Essence of Dzogchen. It is possible that in the fourteenth century AD Longchenpa wrote down this history about Dzogchen Masters who lived from about the third century BC to the ninth century AD.
Holy Madness: Portraits of Tantric Siddhas is a groundbreaking examination of the art and legends of some of the most colorful characters in South Asian and Himalayan civilization. With contributions by ten of the most prominent scholars in the field, this catalog provides both a survey of the topic of mahasiddhas (Sanskrit, maha meaning "great" and siddha meaning "accomplished one") in art as well as essays on particular aspects of the theme, including literary, religious, sociological, and anthropological dimensions.
The Hundred Tertons is Jamgon Kongtrul's history of the visionary men and women who
have, again and again, renewed the Vajrayana Buddhist tradition of
Padmasambhava. Kongtrul's book includes biographies of Padmasambhava, his
twenty-five disciples, Longchenpa, Jikme Lingpa, Chokgyur Lingpa, and many
others. Considered a seminal work of Tibetan Buddhist history, The Hundred Tertons is for the first
time available in English translation.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by kameko This is an excellent product. Please, Vermont Country Store, never stop carrying this excellent hot cereal. I ate it many mornings while growing up, on those mornings that my father wasn't trying to force feed me oatmeal, and continued to eat it though my adulthood. After my local store stopped carrying Ralston I search for it on the Vermont Country Store site and true to form Vermont Country Store carries it and I hope it will never delete from their site. A bowl of Ralston each morning gets me ready to face my day in a productive manner and I don't get hungry for a morning snack as I do with other cereals. October 21, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Smiles Childhood Cereal I am 85 years old, and used to eat Ralston as a child. It was advertised on the radio on a show called Tom Mix Straight Shooters. My dad and I listened to the Tom Mix Show every day in the late afternoon, and ate Ralston for breakfast. I still enjoy the whole grain wheat cereal today. Ralston is not sold in our local stores. I appreciate being able to buy it from Vermont Country Store. September 15, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Cookie44 More, Please! I have always loved this cereal. My mom used to fix it in the morning and since she taught school sometimes we would have this for supper. It brings back many fond memories! Thanks for providing this product. July 8, 2016

Rated 5 out of 5Â by JerryJug Years Ago I can remember back as a kid that my Mom would fix me and my brother Ralston for breakfast a couple times a week. When it disappeared from the grocery shelves it was sad as it was a part of my life. I was very happy when I found it on the Vermont Store web site I ordered some and now I can enjoy it once again a couple times a week. I must say it's just as good today as it was way back then.

Calling Planet Earth
Space is the Place
Space Is The Place and the 3-CD Calling Planet Earth detail the evolution of Sun Ra's music between 1966 and '72. This pivotal period in the Arkestra's history spanned the release of their first relatively well-circulated recordings and their first European tour. Their ensemble cohesion benefited not only from their legendary endless rehearsals, but also from a regular Monday night gig at Slug's, which allowed Ra to test-drive compositions employing progessively unusual structures and instrumentation. In concert, he also moved away from performing separate pieces, choosing instead to link songs with percussion interludes, free improvisations, and keyboard solos. The result was an expanded cosmos.
The Freedom box consists of tapes Ra sold to producer Alan Bates during their first European tour in 1971. Discographically, it is a tangled mess. One album was released contemporaneously; originally issued as Pictures of Infinity, the title was changed to Outer Space Incorporated upon its CD release. Recorded in '68, it runs the gamut from svelte early charts like "Saturn" to extended collective improvisations like the incendiary "Somewhere There" (contrary to concerns posted on the Saturn website, the CD still has the strutting "Intergalactic Motion" as a bonus track). Originally released as a Saturn LP titled Outer Space Incorporated, Spaceways is composed of tapes from '66 and '68; it includes strong versions of such repeatedly recorded Ra compositions as the intricate, propulsive "The Shadow World," and features an earlier, longer, and more far-roaming version of "Outer Space Incorporated" than the CD of the same name. Calling Planet Earth is the first release of a '71 Copenhagen concert. It weaves together pieces from the then-new "Discipline" series and chestnuts like "Enlightenment" and "Love In Outer Space."
Originally issued on Blue Thumb, Space is the Place is a '72 studio date not to be confused with the soundtrack for the movie of the same name, currently available on Evidence. The program includes an exhilarating 21-minute version of the title track, a much more loose-limbed take of "Images" than appears on '58's Jazz in Silhouette, a desultory "Discipline," an energetic "Sea Of Sounds," and the sci-fi patter of "Rocket Number Nine." It is one of Ra's best.
