Concertgoers sometimes leave with a memento handed down from the stage, such as a drumstick, a set list, or a plastic baggy full of famous-person sweat. Go home happy with this GrouponLive deal to see Gotye at the Fox Theatre. For $25, you get one G-Pass for seating on the floor in sections F1–F6, rows U–QQ; the mezzanine in sections M2 and M6, rows AA–EE; or the balcony in sections GA3 and GA4, rows E–K, on Tuesday, September 18, at 7 p.m. (up to a $55.70 value, including all fees). Doors open at 6 p.m. Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call.
Gotye is best known for delivering the haunting, finger-pointing lyrics of "Somebody That I Used to Know," but his new album, Making Mirrors, finds him working in a variety of moods, including on the joyful, Martha and the Vandellas–inspired "I Feel Better." The new songs also incorporate more live instrumentation to expand on his usual paint box of intriguing vintage samples, as a 10-piece band will be joining him on his fall tour. "These are by far my most ambitious shows to date," he wrote on his Facebook page. "There will be no backing tracks used. All visuals will be triggered live."
Youthful duo Chairlift thrills fans with dreamy synth-pop and cleverly repackaged '80s beats, continuing to enjoy success after its 2012 sophomore album, Something, which Pitchfork praised as "truly great pop." Zammuto also heats up the stage with an archive of sound clips collaged into a digital landscape of rhythm and instrumentation enhanced with vocals that roll and flow like liquid.
Fox Theatre
Fox Theatre lures crowds and musical acts alike with an auditorium drenched in the glimmer and charm of theater's history. Surrounding a proscenium stage draped in red is enough gold to please a group of kings or outfit one rapper with his requisite bling. Bas-reliefs and intricate patterns line the walls while below, rows of seats on the floor and balcony beckon with simple comfort.
Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

Hermione chose to Apparate instead of Flooing, as she thought that would give them a better jump on Ernie. She had not received a response from Harry or Ron, but as an extra precaution, she sent Ernie's address through the Galleon, hoping they would be able to locate her in the event of trouble.
She Apparated to Hogsmeade, chewing her lip as she attempted to find the right street. Snape whispered in her mind, a constant presence as they traveled along. His touch sent warmth through her on the chilly Autumn day, and she was thankful that she had him there. She knew she wouldn't be there without him.
Newt's Eye Circle was a sidestreet for middling income individuals. She finally found it midway through town. Before rounding a corner and turning onto it, however, she glanced around to make sure no one was watching. Confirming that, a tap of her wand atop her head took care of her Disillusionment. She was no only a faint shimmer in the air, visible to the sharpest eye.
She hoped Ernie wasn't paying too much attention, but she knew she couldn't bank on that.
Proceed with caution. I will be of no help to you here if something goes wrong.
Snape didn't have enough power to affect Ernie in any significant way, besides tossing blunt objects at him. Even then, to anyone with half a brain and a wand, that wouldn't be too much of an obstacle.
Arriving at number 6, she noted that the curtains were drawn, and the house looked empty. He might have fled already. Oh, well. That would give her an opportunity to search his house.
Snape, swimming around in her stream-of-consciousness, gave what sounded much like a snort. You're not the most upstanding of detectives.
"I don't know what you mean," she murmured as she quietly and efficiently scaled Ernie's garden fence.
Summoning a shade to assist you in your case, assaulting a Potions Master and wiping his memories, and now breaking and entering. Tsk, tsk. When will you learn to abide by the law, Detective Granger?
"I'll learn to abide by the law when people aren't being murdered left and right."
Snape stopped talking to her, which she took as her cue to remain silent for now. She cast an identification charm around Ernie's house, and, sure enough, a number of very powerful wards pulsed in response. Her version of the spell, self-crafted, had been designed not to actually trigger wards when detecting them, a problem with most spells of that nature.
That's a handy bit of spell-work. I don't know why you aren't in research and development already.
You saying you doubt my abilities as an investigator?
I'm saying your talents would be put to much better use in pursuing progress for the wizarding world. Your mind goes to waste in this field.
Hermione filed away that compliment to mull over later. It wasn't everyday Severus Snape indicated he approved of you in some way. She had no time to be pleased, though. The third and final layer of the wards dissolved silently as she twirled her wand. With a nonverbal Alohomora, she was in.
She closed the door quietly behind her, leaving it unlocked in case Harry or Ron chose to enter that way.
Hermione was just about to head upstairs when the bookshelf in the living room caught her eye, and she stopped.
What are you –
Look. Her response stopped Severus in his tracks, and she ran her fingers carefully over the third shelf, the one at chest level. One book seemed to be slightly askew, a battered, much-loved copy of Crime and Punishment. On a hunch, she yanked it, and the entire bookshelf slid aside with a grinding noise.
If he didn't know we were here, he does now, Snape said. Prepare yourself.
What is it with sneaky people and bookshelves, anyway?
It's a legitimate hiding place. He sounded slightly affronted.
Ah. So what you're saying is, you had one of those.
He didn't respond. She would have laughed at any other time, but the stairs leading into the darkness below made her stomach clench.
Disillusiond as she was, Hermione hoped that it would allow her to get the jump on Ernie. There was virtually no way he hadn't heard the bookshelf move aside, so she decided to proceed at a slow pace. She descended into the dark stairwell, her footsteps almost inaudible, she was moving so carefully.
Running her hand along the concrete walls beside her alerted her to when the stairwell terminated and she had entered a room. It was completely dark.
The shadows spat a green jet of light in her direction, and she tucked and rolled to escape it, banging her knees hard on the stone floor as Severus shouted instructions in her mind.
Lumos, woman! Go, there's no point in allowing him the cover of darkness! He knows we're here!
She cast a special lighting charm – not the feeble Lumos she had relied upon in school. She had designed it to detect any light-emitting device within a fifteen-foot radius and activate it. Torches in sconces on the walls burst into life, illuminating the room and casting leaping, twitching shadows all around her.
"Ernie MacMillan," she called, infusing her voice with as much authority as she could muster. "Come out with your wand where I can see it."
"What good reason do you have for breaking into the privacy of my home, Hermione Granger?"
She assumed he was also Disillusioned because she couldn't see him anywhere. Normally, she might be able to detect his position by the source of his voice or the shimmer in the air, but the echoing effect in the room distorted sound, and the torches made it impossible to pick out anything abnormal in the air.
"You are under arrest under suspicion of the murders of Dolores Umbridge, Lucius Malfoy, and Pansy Parkinson via the use of the Anima Damnata potion. Come quietly, so that we may take you in for questioning."
"I'm not going anywhere with you," he spat, his voice trembling a bit. "I've done nothing wrong!"
"Come now, Ernie," she coaxed, creeping to her right around a table filled with notes and scattered POtions ingredients. "If you've done nothing wrong, then there's no reason not to come with me to the Ministry to answer a few questions."
"If word gets out that I've been taken into custody associated with these murders – Granger, do you realize what that will do to my reputation? I've just been appointed to the Wizengamot, for Merlin's sake!"
There. Two o'clock.
Sure enough, there was the faintest glimmer in the air by a shelf filled with assorted glass phials. Hermione continued to creep to her right, clearing some tables to give herself a straight shot to Ernie. If she could just hit him with a Stunner...
"Now, Ernie," she said, hoping that she could throw her voice well enough to confuse him, "no one will blame you if you're found innocent-"
"If?" he shrilled, voice breaking. "I tell you, I've done nothing wrong!"
Don't let him fool you, Hermione. He's lying. On the table to your right - don't look, keep your eyes on him – there's a book with a reference to the Damnata.
Hermione, in a rapid-fire motion, cast a spell to the left of the distortion in the air, then cast a Stunner to where she thought he might feint. It failed to strike anything but the wall, leaving a smoking hole in its wake. In the small explosion, she'd lost sight of him.
Look out! Snape bellowed, and she lunged. Unfortunately, she chose the wrong direction in her haste, slamming bodily into someone and sending them both tumbling to the concrete. They crashed into one of the tables, and before she could move, a heavy book tipped off and smacked her in the skull.
She blacked out, just briefly, and came to realizing that with her unconsciousness, the Disillusionment spell had ended. She was completely visible now.
A weight came down on her chest, crushing her spine into the concrete and forcefully ejecting the air from her chest. She wheezed, tears leaking from the corners of her eyes. An invisible hand grabbed her roughly by the hair, and she felt someone's breath on her ear.
"It's a shame Terry assigned you to this case," Ernie said. "You're a valuable asset to the Ministry with that fabulous mind of yours. In time, perhaps you could have worked under me."
She thrashed, but he was planted firmly on her chest, and no amount of punching from her did any good. She could only hope that Harry or Ron would get there soon. That was assuming they were in reach of their Galleons when she sent the message.
She couldn't depend on them.
Gasping, she tried to speak. "They know... I'm here..."
Ernie materialized, his own Disillusionment spell terminating. His eyes burned with a mad light, and his golden curls stuck out in all directions. "It doesn't matter. I don't know how you figured out it was me. I slipped up, somehow, but it won't happen again. By the time they figure out where to go, it'll be like you were never here."
She bucked wildly, trying to throw him off. It was no use - he was a solid fellow, easily keeping her on the ground. Her head throbbed where the book had struck her, too, impeding her efforts to escape.
"Before I do, though, I'm going to tell you why. You've worked so hard to get this far, I might as well satisfy your legendary curiosity before I get rid of you."
As he spoke, he reached inside his robes and withdrew a vial filled with a potion so dark, it seemed to obliterate the light surrounding it. She recognized it from Severus's description: the Anima Damnata.
She prayed Severus was listening, so that he could tell Harry and Ron what happened when they finally arrived. She prayed that he wouldn't be sent back to the otherworld once she was gone. Someone had to bring Ernie to justice, even if she couldn't.
"Neville had it mostly right," he said matter-of-factly, staring into the potion like a starving man to a hot meal. Real fear stabbed through her gut. He'd lost it. "I've always wanted to be a part of the Wizengamot, Hermione. I believe in justice for all, and all of them had it coming. The Ministry's courts are corrupt, poisoned by greed and Galleons. If due process of the law couldn't bring the criminals of the Blood War to justice, then I knew I had to.
"I wanted to be a judge because I want to change the courts from within." He shook his head, chuckling ruefully. "It wouldn't be quick enough, though. I couldn't stand the thought of those... criminals—" Flecks of spittle hit her face, ejected from his mouth in his vehemence—"walking free, while innocent people had died and suffered at their hands.
"So I stood up for what was right. The Dementors are gone, now, so I found the next best substitute. The Anima Damnata…surely you know what it does, Hermione?"
She could only stare at him, willing herself not to shake as he waited for her response. He smiled.
"Of course you do. It's the next best thing to the Dementor's kiss. But I did some research. You see, when Dementors die – because they do die, Detective Granger – the souls they've collected are finally released. They've lived a thousand lifetimes of torment, a purgatory, if you will, and then they're allowed to move on to the otherworld.
"The Anima Damnata's just like that, except it destroys the soul entirely. That way, they don't get a second chance."
"You're sick," she rasped, finally managing to get enough air into her lungs to speak again. "Who are you to make that decision?"
His eyes narrowed. "They had their chance to submit to justice in this life. Instead, they used their status and money to escape their true fate. I fixed it."
"And Pansy?" She was stalling, and he knew it.
He shrugged. "She chose her side in the final battle. Just because she didn't fight doesn't mean she didn't choose the Dark. So she was punished. Bulstrode escaped by way of luck. The Malfoys too." His expression soured as he admitted it. "I admit, my plan was not foolproof. Not to worry, their times will come soon. After all, everyone must get what they deserve.
"And now it's your turn."
He uncorked the bottle as she struggled anew. "You think this is justice?" she cried. "What have I done to deserve this in your fucked up brain! This makes no sense, Ernie!"
"Those who would impede true justice must be dealt with," he said, shrugged.
Hermione knew that if even a drop of that potion entered her bloodstream, she would be done for, her soul lost forever. A fate worse than death.
At that moment, Severus appeared in a blaze of fiery light, his voice echoing in the chamber.
"MR. MACMILLAN! Do not move!"
Ernie's eyes shot open with surprise, almost popping out of his face. "You... P-Professor Snape?"
Hermione took her chance, pushing past the pounding in her head and throwing Ernie from her body. He toppled from her body, and she crawled away on all fours. The potion slipped from his fingers, and the phial shattered on the stones.
"No!" he screamed. "The Damnata!" Turning his mad eyes toward Hermione, he snarled with hatred. "You bitch!"
He stood and made a move toward her, but she had reached her wand. With a quick movement, she shouted, "FUMUS!"
The Damnata vaporized, shrouding Ernie's horrified face in a cloud of black steam. His knees buckled, his body seizing, and he fell forward with terrified eyes, foam spilling from his mouth.
Hermione scooted away, out of reach of his grasping fingers, almost gagging as he choked and twisted. Her head whipped around, searching frantically for Severus, and her eyes lit on him just as Ernie's flailing arms connected with his shimmering form.
He locked gazes with her, reached out one hand, then disappeared. She screamed.
Hermione realized, belatedly, that she was crying, tears streaming from her eyes unchecked. She couldn't feel Severus's connection to her anymore. He was gone.
Her heart broke as she came to the understanding that, in Ernie's soul-destruction by way of Damnata, he had touched Severus's essence and taken him as well. Severus Snape had, once again, given up everything for the sake of another.
She wept, bitterly, on the cold concrete floor, so absorbed in her crippling grief that she didn't look up the first time she heard her name.
"Detective Granger."
She wept on, heedless.
"Hermione. "
A hand touched her sleeve. She almost screamed, but then she met the deep black, totally alive eyes of Severus Snape. Instead of screaming, she threw herself into his arms and kissed him straight on his living, breathing, very warm lips.
It wasn't a particularly good kiss, being frantic and proceeded by a hysterical crying fit, but she enjoyed it all the same. By Severus's open mouth and pink cheeks when she pulled back, he had as well.
"But how?" she breathed, her hands running all over him. It was him all right - the hooked nose, the terrible teeth, the tangle of black hair. Only the robes were different; they were definitely the clothes Ernie had been wearing.
"I'm... not sure," he finally admitted, after staring at her for a very long time. They were sitting on the floor, curled into each other, his hands in her hair. She never in a million years thought she would associate this kind of relief with Severus Snape, of all people, but he was alive, for Merlin's sake. She hadn't destroyed him.
"I think it had something to do with MacMillan's leaving his body," he continued. "When he made contact with me, as a shade, I felt this irresistible pull. Then this horrible pain. I woke up to you crying a few feet away."
Hermione rubbed a thumb over his cheekbone. "It seems, somehow, the departure of Ernie's soul from his body allowed space for you."
"That doesn't explain," he said, nearly crossing his eyes to look at his own nose and examine his oily black hair, "why I look like, well, myself. Not Mr. MacMillan."
"This is new territory for me as well," Hermione admitted. She didn't really care what he looked like, as long as he was there. "We're going to have to run some tests."
"We're going to be in the lab very late." Wonder sparked in his eyes as he studied her. After a moment, he disentangled himself, and disappointment flooded her.
Then, he held out one elegant hand and helped haul her to her feet. He stood very close to her.
"I don't know how we're going to explain this."
Her eyes welled with tears. "Oh, Severus. I'm so sorry. You can't even have a peaceful death now. I've screwed everything up for you."
"Don't be stupid," he growled. "If I wanted a peaceful death, I'd Avada myself right now." He brushed some dust from her shoulder, and she tried not to get her hopes up. Her heart swelled when he said, "I think I might like a second shot at life, now that I've got it."
She wanted to kiss him again, and the way he was staring at her made her stomach do cartwheels.
"I just can't believe it," she said finally. "Ernie MacMillan. Who would've suspected?"
"Never underestimate an insane person, Hermione. Especially one from Hufflepuff." He looked deadly serious.
A commotion sounded upstairs, and Ron's voice squawked, "Bloody hell! There's a fucking passageway behind the bookcase!"
"Hermione!" Harry shouted frantically. "Hermione, are you here? Are you all right?"
"It's a good thing MacMillan's been taken care of," Snape sneered, "or they'd be cocking it up as we speak."
"They have terrible timing," she muttered.
"Explaining this is going to be bloody awful." Snape rubbed the bridge of his sizeable nose, already tired.
"Well, at least you've got your whole life to get your story straight," she chirped.
He pulled at one of her curls with two long fingers. "Cheeky."
When Harry and Ron stumbled out of the stairwell with a squad of Aurors behind them, Hermione couldn't help but laugh at Snape's smirk as their mouths dropped open.
Finally, Ron sighed, interrupting her laughter. "Could someone, please, tell me what the hell is going on here?"

Barcelona, Spain, 31 August 2009: Drug-eluting stents (DES), which slowly release medication to inhibit the build-up of scar tissue, have proved very successful in preventing restenosis (renarrowing) of stented coronary arteries. However, several studies have shown persistent risk of blood clot formation inside DES over a longer time period after implantation than observed with bare metal stents. Additionally, recent serial angiographic studies have reported that scar tissue accumulation can be seen up for up to two years after implantation of DES. There is increasing evidence that the risk of both late in-stent blood clot and neo-intimal scar formation may be caused by a delayed healing process or a persisting inflammatory response to the permanent polymer used to control drug-release from the surface of stent.
The ISAR-TEST-4 study is a randomised trial designed and conducted at two tertiary referral cardiology centres – Deutsches Herzzentrum and 1. Medizinische Klinik, Klinikum rechts der Isar, Technische Universität, both in Munich, Germany – with the aim of assessing the efficacy and safety of a biodegradable polymer DES in a non-selected cohort of patients undergoing PCI in de novo native-vessel coronary lesions. First results indicate that safety and efficacy outcomes at one year are comparable with those of permanent polymer-based drug-eluting stents
Patients were randomly assigned to receive either a biodegradable polymer DES (n = 1299) or a permanent polymer DES (Cypher, n = 652, or Xience, n = 652). The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiac death, myocardial infarction (MI) related to the target vessel, or revascularisation related to the target lesion (TLR) at one year.
The biodegradable polymer DES was developed in the setting of the Individualized Drug-Eluting Stent System to Abrogate Restenosis (ISAR) project. The stent platform consists of a sand-blasted, stainless-steel stent that is coated on-site with a mixture of rapamycin, biodegradable polymer, and shellac resin (a biocompatible resin widely used in the coating of medical tablets).
Primary endpoint results showed that the biodegradable polymer DES was non-inferior to the permanent polymer DES (a rate of 13.8% vs 14.4%, Pnon-inferiority 0.005; RR 0.96, 95% CI 0.78-1.17, Psuperiority=0.66). No significant difference was observed between the biodegradable and permanent polymer DES according to cardiac death or MI (6.3% vs 6.2%, P=0.94), TLR (8.8% vs. 9.4%, P=0.58) or stent thrombosis (definite/probable: 1.0% vs. 1.5%, P=0.29). Nor was there a significant difference in subgroup analysis of the biodegradable polymer DES versus the individual permanent polymer DES arms.
Investigator Dr Julinda Mehilli from the Deutsches Herzzentrum in Munich, said: "The one-year clinical efficacy of the biodegradable polymer rapamycin-eluting stent is comparable to permanent polymer-based DES. These results now provide a framework for testing the potential clinical advantage of biodegradable polymer DES over the medium- to long-term." - ENDS-

And he promises that UNISON will do everything in its power to help its activists achieve that saying: "We need to strengthen the union, we need to make sure that the activists are supported and we need to make sure that our members and potential members know that UNISON is there for them."
The first phase of the recruitment campaign kicked off on 11 March, spearheaded by a national advertising campaign including television adverts, national and local press advertising, online and social media.
A range of new recruitment materials is available for branches to use in workplaces and the union has reviewed how it processes applications to ensure that people find it quick and easy to join UNISON.
This recruitment campaign is happening against the backdrop of disastrous government policies that Dave describes as "the most frightening we've ever dealt with, more so even than those under Margaret Thatcher.
"Our members are in the eye of the storm. What keeps them awake at night is the worry about losing their jobs, about privatisation and how they can continue to make ends meets after living with a pay freeze that has lasted over three years.
"As their union, they turn to us to help. And we've got to be there for them. So it's important that we as their union are strong. To be a strong union you have to have growing membership, you've got to speak on behalf of the whole workforce, not just a small part of it.
"This is about increasing density, making the union strong, putting the union in a position where it will weather the storm and set a legacy for future public service workers."

February 28 – Mutual Support and Encouragement – Br. Curtis Almquist
March 6 – Our Founders and the Grace of Tradition – Br. Geoffrey Tristram
March 13 – Our Dedication to the Disciple whom Jesus Loved – Br. Kevin Hackett
March 20 – The Maturing of Our Minds in Christ – Br. Mark Brown
March 27 – The Cell and Solitude – Br. David Vryhof
Day One – A Living Tradition
A Living Tradition Question: Several Brothers have preached and spoken of how tradition—and our Rule particularly—is less about the past than it is about the future, God's future, and that therefore, always looking forward. Can you say more? Br. Geoffrey Tristram: Living under a rule of life, a regula, as the Latin says it, for…Read More
Day Two – Handing on What We Have Received
Question: Tradition is often cited as an authoritative source, with roots in the past. How does it function in the present Rule, and in the community's life? Br. Kevin Hackett: Tradition is such a rich word, which in its Latin origins (traditio) means simply, "that which is handed on or over." A past of some…Read More
Day Three – Running the Race
Question: If tradition is rooted in the past, how do you discern what is worth handing on and what has served its usefulness in the life of a community. Br. Mark Brown: Tradition is like a relay race, really, in which one generation hands on the baton on to the next, and our handing on…Read More
Day Four – Everything Up for Grabs
Question: A feature new to this version of the Rule is a whole chapter dedicated to the Society's founders and the graces of tradition (3). Why was this important to include? Br. Curtis Almquist: When we began the conversations about the Rule, we had no set agenda or any kind of imagined outcome. One of…Read More
Day Five – How Firm a Foundation
Question: When the conversations about re-writing the Rule began, did you name certain assumptions that would inform the discussions, or were things more free form? Br. Curtis Almquist: The discussions were amazingly wide-ranging, but we knew that ultimately we were looking for boundaries. I would say that all of those discussions—some of which were incredibly…Read More
Day Six – Led into Truth
Question: Some Brothers have said they were glad they didn't know how much work the rewriting would be, that some of the discussions redefined "perseverance." Br. Jonathan Maury: It was hard work. Very hard, at times, even exhausting. But I think we were given grace in those early discussions that enabled us to do far…Read More
Day Seven – On the Threshold of Glory
Question: As Brothers reminisce about the process of rewriting, it sounds like you were often in a very liminal space, spiritually. Did you realize that at the time or has awareness come in retrospect? Br. Jonathan Maury: I think it is true to say that, in the moment, it usually felt as though this was…Read More
Letter from the Fellowship of Saint John – Martha Holden
Developing a Rule of Life My first attempt at a rule of life listed everything that I thought I could be doing in order to have a sound (self-satisfying) [impressive] spiritual life. My second attempt was three sentences long and abstract. Then I happened upon Basil Pennington's The School of Love: the Cistercian Way to…Read More
Day Eight – An Interpreter's Guide
Question: The Rule describes the Superior as the chief interpreter of the Rule. Br. Curtis, you were the first Superior whose tenure was entirely under its authority. Are there places in the Rule that required you to stretch that interpretative authority as the Community lived into its mandates? Br. Curtis Almquist: Oh yes. The most…Read More
Day Nine – The Messiness of Money
Question: Br. Curtis, your nine years as Superior gave you the access of a surgeon to the Community and its life lived under this Rule. Can you comment on the vows as they are presented in the Rule? Br. Curtis Almquist: Gladly. I'll do this in three parts, beginning with an integral aspect of our…Read More
Day Ten – Frank Talk about Sex
Question: Yesterday we addressed how the Rule talks about money (and it sounded like the beginning of a new conversation). What do you want to take on next, sex or power? Br. Curtis Almquist: I'll speak to the chapters we wrote on celibacy (9 – 11). I think the language is not quite real enough…Read More
Letter from the Fellowship of Saint John – Susan Harriss
Surprising Advice to a Newlywed When I was first ordained I confided to Sr. Andrea, at the Order of St. Helena, that I was having trouble finding time to read Morning Prayer. I was a newly wed at the time. She responded quickly and fervently: she didn't think it was a good idea to roll…Read More
Day Eleven – Listen to This!
Question: We've talked about money and sex, which leaves us with the third vow. What might we say about obedience, about power? Br. Mark Brown: The three chapters on obedience (12 – 14) are extraordinarily subtle and forward-looking, and break new ground. The kind of obedience that the Rule imagines is very different from the…Read More
Day Twelve – Noise and Haste
Question: Were there things that got left on the "cutting room floor" that you regret, turns of phrase, subjects, passages of Scripture that you wish had found their way into the finished text? Br. David Allen: I'm very happy with the Rule as it stands, of course, but I will say that I wish we…Read More
Day Thirteen – A Change in Propriety
Question: Br. David, you're now the senior Brother of the community, "the bearer of our corporate memory," as the Rule says (47). You've lived under several different iterations of the Rule. When you consider the present version, how does it compare with what you experienced in earlier forms? Br. David Allen: Well, in many ways,…Read More
Day Fourteen – The Scandal of Particularity
Question: One of the most fascinating points arising from these conversations is various Brothers' memories of how a particular turn of phrase or word came to be used. What stands out to you from your experience of those conversations? Br. James Koester: Sometimes, I can hear the distinctive voices of Brothers—some still with us, some…Read More

I welcome all prayers of brothers and sisters on this journey. Been a Christian 51 years as a Protestant. Read my 1st book about a monk 20 years ago, "Brother Lawrence" from the Middle Ages and began to practice that, known as practicing the presence of God. I've never met monks or nuns. I passed a nun once crossing the street in 1965. We don't have those anywhere I ever lived. So some of these practices are new and exciting to me. Became Episcopalian last month.Interesting.
This has been a good Lenten discipline. Thanks so much.
Thanks be to God for all the inspiration you share with so many of us who need it. Each of you have the sweetest dispositions. Your gifts of Peace & Love come shining thru each video, even if they are less than 2 minutes long! LOL
I appreciate your kind devotion very much because I need God so much.
Blessings and Love to you all! ❤
Thank you for your devotion to our Lord. Thank you for this series which I will now embark on… I was directed to your site from my Pastor at our church in Phx, Az … (and i will leave that blank now that i know this is posted more publicly then i originally thought)
All my days i have wanted to have the courage of prayer-filled days and yet failed so often along the way…. from the beginning of my days a yearning and a calling has been available to me and yet the courage to be was always lacking… even now as i write these words i feel the doubt creep in and the echoes of all the i cant's rise in me… yet now finally reading the word of God more often I have begun to argue less and obey more…
i hope this doesn't just wander off into space and attached to this e-mail is the hope of prayer and the hope community and relationship with others…
my wife ( for both our third) were bought together with desire to be of the Lord… and have each other and others to lean on and in the midst of life i seek the contemplative time to be one with the Lord…
sharing these thoughts do help to clarify some things for me as i backspace through and plunge forward a clarity takes shape……..
enough for this e-mail..
Blessings to each of you

My Trip to Atsugi
Thursday was the scheduled meeting at Atsugi with the speech and early education specialists. We didn't want Etta to miss school so we decided that I would go alone and Eric would take care of the kids (without a car). I left early since it took 2.5 hours to get there last time and it took me that long again. I really wish I would have taken a different CD, Alan Jackson got really old after the first 90 minutes.
Since I didn't bring Chloe it make the meeting so much easier. The ladies went through their evaluation and wanted to make sure there were no surprises and that I agreed with them. I agreed with the communication delay and told them I was a little surprised with the social behavioral delay but they said it stems from her lack of communication. They asked me what some of our goals would be for the next 6 months. We came up with using more words than screaming (right now it's more screaming than words) and to be able to wait for one minute without throwing a fit, tantrum, or screaming before getting what she has asked for. Chloe knows no patience. We will be meeting a minimum of 2 times a month. Sometimes it will be me alone (or Eric if he feels he could benefit from it), me with Chloe, Eric with Chloe, group play days with other kids like Chloe, mom's group with others like me, and home visits by several of the specialists.
I told them my concern that Yokota said that we wouldn't be reimbursed since it wasn't far enough away. What?!?! They told me they would look into it because we should be reimbursed. Let's hope, $45 in tolls (that's with the borrowed ETC card) plus gas each time sure would add up. That's why they suggested the home visit once a month or so because they get reimbursed. Plus, they think Chloe must act different in the home setting and would like to see her on her own turf.
Other than that, they are basically giving me resources and ideas to correct some of the problems we are having with her. For example, Chloe likes to lay herself down on the ground (sometimes quietly and sometimes with a tantrum) to get picked up or something she wants. For getting picked up they suggested that we have her put her arms up and say up for other things (not just to be picked up) so she gets the point. Just in the first day we saw a huge change. She hasn't thrown herself on the ground since then, but I'm sure it is bound to happen because we can't always pick her up. Also, they are having me play the waiting game with her. Have her snack or drink in hand and playingly say wait and sign at the same time for about 5 seconds. So far, no fits. The biggest one is the meltdown while I'm making dinner. They say Eric needs to take her to do Daddy Chloe one on one time to keep her busy and not in my way (laying on the floor screaming or hanging on my legs screaming). So far so good. Now I just need to find a way to get her to speak more. Still waiting for Your Baby Cab Read to show up. Hope it will be at Yokota when we go next!
Ok, so I've gone on long enough. I'm thankful that they didn't classify her as something worse like autistic or ADD. I suppose it's just too early for that. They will reevaluate Chloe before she turns three since they don't work with kids over three. Those kids move into a different program. It would be about the time we move so it will be important to find out if she'll need to continue getting help because it could effect where we try going from here. For example, we wouldn't be able to get any assistance from the Embassy here in Tokyo. But, if we were to be at a base oversees any of the base schools would have programs for her. Uhhh, we already had a lot to think about with the upcoming assignment now this too. Oh well, no since worrying about it since it's a little ways away. Thanks for all your prayers over the last month. I can't wait to see some improvement.

Dealer Selection Receive your free dealer pricing information by completing your contact information! The 2013 Toyota Avalon has forced us to take notice again of the full-size sedan, and that was before we got behind the wheel of the Avalon TRD Edition. Toyota prepared the one-off supercharged Avalon TRD Edition for last year's SEMA show, and now we're wondering: Should Toyota offer an Avalon Sport or Avalon SE?Though the Avalon TRD Edition produces around 320 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque, Toyota suggests a retuned engine and software calibration would help improve performance numbers from what we saw in our First Test. A more showroom-ready Toyota Avalon SE, though, would probably go the route of the popular Camry SE, which features paddle shifters, upsized wheels compared to other Camrys, and a sportier suspension tuning. Different seats and special interior trim could complete the package.As we suggested in our Avalon TRD Edition First Test, once the full-size Avalon is refreshed, an SE model with darkened headlights/taillights, a TRD exhaust system, and smoked wheels would nicely complete the lineup."Sure, an Avalon TRD may not suit all full-size sedan buyers' tastes," we write in the review, "but it certainly could attract new customers who would have never considered the 2013 Avalon's bland predecessors."What do you think: Should Toyota offer a Avalon SE for enthusiasts in the market for a full-size sedan?

Infant saved after family's car plunges into sea killing five other occupants
A couple and three children died and a two-month-old infant was rescued after their car plunged into the sea off a pier in Co Donegal last night.
The horrific incident happened in Buncrana around 7.15pm at a popular Wild Atlantic Way stop-off point for tourists wanting to watch the sun set over Lough Swilly.
The town had been packed with visitors on a bright and sunny Sunday at the start of the Easter holidays.
A two-month-old baby girl was thrown from the Northern Ireland-registered Audi Q7 jeep as it went off the pier.
Two local men managed to rescue the infant, who was rushed by ambulance to Letterkenny University Hospital.
However, the other five occupants of the 4x4 - believed to be visitors - tragically drowned.
The Coast Guard 118 Rescue helicopter, RNLI lifeboat crews from Lough Swilly and Greencastle, ambulance crews and gardaí all took part in the search and rescue operation.
But by 9pm it was clear that there were no other survivors.
The children who died included two boys, believed to be of national school age, and a girl.
Emergency services continued to scour the shoreline late into the night as the scale of the horrific tragedy became clear.
"Once again, Inishowen has been hit with a terrible, terrible tragedy," said local councillor Jack Murray, who was at the scene.
"We knew that something awful had happened when we saw all the emergency services and lifeboat volunteers at the pier but we weren't prepared for the full horror of it.
"Buncrana is in mourning again. It's like the Inishowen car crash all over again.
"We believe those who died were not from here and may have been visiting and enjoying a lovely sunny Sunday and then this dreadful incident happened.
"A family somewhere is about to get the most awful news. We'll pray the young child survives," he added.
"It was the most awful scene," said one local man.
"The emergency services worked tirelessly to try to rescue the family but there was little they could do other than to try to recover them from the water as quickly as possible."
Local people said there had been a number incidents in recent months of cars parking on the slipway getting into difficulty when their vehicles slid into the water. The slipway has been covered in a thick layer of algae.
Gardaí sealed off the scene and a full investigation into the tragedy will begin at dawn today.
However, it is believed the car may have accidentally slipped into the water.
A large crowd of around 200 people stood in silence at the pier last night as the search continued.
The bodies of the couple and the three children were taken to Letterkenny hospital, where post mortems are expected to be carried out today.
Eyewitnesses described the scene at the pier as "absolutely manic" as emergency services desperately tried to rescue the family.
"There were dozens of gardaí, fire units and water rescue teams. They managed to pull one child out in time, but it doesn't seem like they got to anybody else in time."

Macro economic forces that require data integration are making data transformations increasingly important. Webinar 3-11-2010, 8 PM to 9.30 PM IST. Nominate and watch out from Homes.
Macro economic forces that require data integration are making data transformations increasingly important. When the Model-Driven Architecture initiative was launched early in this decade, its founders accurately predicted that model-driven techniques would make data integration less costly and error-prone.However, integration costs are still too high, consuming 30-60% of IT budgets. Now it is time to chart the next milestone on the data integration path: improvement in semantic interoperability.Data and message format definitions contain only one kind of machine-readable metadata, namely metadata about the syntax of the information. Machine-readable syntactic metadata makes it possible for current state-of-the-art data integration tools to generate data transformation code, once the integration analyst has entered a mapping from one format to another into the tool. However, this metadata does not provide integration tools with a basis to help integration analysts decide *what* the mapping between two formats should be. This is a key reason that integration work is still so labor intensive. Moreover, misunderstandings about the semantics of data and message definitions lead integration analysts to make subtle errors that can be costly and difficult to track down. Machine-readable semantic metadata helps to address these limitations.

The magical new novel from the Orange Prize shortlisted author of The White Woman on the Green Bicycle will take you on a journey like no other... Gavin Weald lives with his six-year old daughter Océan and their dog Suzy in a newly rebuilt pink house. It is only a few months since a devastating flood swept through their home, with heartbreaking consequences. Gavin is trying desperately to carry on, but wakes each night to his daughter's cries and his own fears for the future. So one day he does the only thing he can think of: he takes his daughter and his dog down to the marina, to his old boat Romany which hasn't set sail in years, and embarks upon a voyage to make his peace with the waters. They set sail into deep open ocean, watch fish and dolphins leap from the waves, and head for the Caribbean archipelago that Gavin longed to explore as a younger man, before he fell in love with a woman and moored his boat for what he thought was the last time. Now Gavin has a new reason for wanderlust and an unexpected crew, who are about to discover the full power and majesty of the sea. A miraculous journey awaits, new sights and wonders - but it will take more than an ocean to put the memory of the flood behind them... Praise for Archipelago:'There's a warmth to this book, an exuberance and a wisdom, that makes the experience of reading it feel not just pleasurable but somehow instructive. It's funny, sometimes bitingly poignant. A brilliant piece of storytelling' Andrew Miller, author of Pure, winner of the Costa Book of the Year 2011

Baltimore-area Catholics who support the state's marriage equality law will meet at Goucher College, Towson, on Saturday, June 9, 1-4 p.m. to discuss ways to prevent the law from being repealed in a potential referendum in November.
Sister Jeannine Gramick, a Catholic nun, will be the main speaker for the day where Catholics will discuss how the Catholic tradition of justice supports the idea of marriage equality for same-gender couples. Sister Gramick, a Maryland resident, has been a Catholic advocate for gay and lesbian equality and justice for more than 40 years.
The event is being sponsored by the Catholics for Marriage Equality Maryland coalition, which is comprised of faithful Catholic individuals and organizations, including: Baltimore Catholic Parishioners for Marriage Equality, Dignity/Washington, New Ways Ministry, Quixote Center/Catholics Speak Out, Thomas More Project, Viva House, Women-Church-Baltimore, and WATER—Women's Alliance for Theology, Ethics & Ritual.
In addition to Sister Gramick, the program will include a panel of speakers, including gay and lesbian people, family members and community leaders.

If you are writing too, I have to recommend PowerGUI. It's a freeware editing/debugging tool that is simply fantastic. It makes the whole script writing and debugging stages so much easier (and I need a lot of debugging!)

I'd also like to say that the PowerGUI script editor has been a life-saver for me.

The next generation Macbook Air is in the air, and floating around just within everyone's grasp. It still retains that familiar 1.7 cm (0.68 in.) thin aluminum casing from the previous model, and the same luxury appearance that the world craves.
New Macbook Air Details
The starting price of the Macbook Air starts around $999 for the 11 inch model , and $1099 for the 13 inch. Historically, the 13 inch model's starting price was $1199 so the new 13 inch Macbook is $100 dollars less than the previous model. The 64gb version will be retired as there was no mention of it in the keynotes, and the Macbook Air will only come in choices two choices — 128gb and 256gb. Along with these two options comes options of two types of processors — intel core i5 and the intel core i7. The i7 one cost 150 dollars more. So what is compelling about this new Macbook Air?If you're on the road a lot with your current Macbook Air a lot, you'll run into the problem of having that nasty insufficient battery after 5 hours on the 11 inch and 7 hours with the 13 inch Macbook Air. Thanks to the new Haswell processor in the new Macbook Air. It will add an extra 4 hours to the Macbook air 11 inch and 5 hours to the 13 inch which comes to the total of 9 hours for the 11 inch and 12 hours for the 13 inch respectively. The new Macbook Air also features 40% faster graphics, so expect the new Macbook air to be a little better at gaming and watching videos. Also the new Macbook Air uses a new type of ram called LPDDR3 LP for Low Power. This ram is specially made for mobile computing, and is suppose to lower the power consumption thus making it more energy efficient. Lastly, Apple is announced that their new macbook air supports the new wireless networking standard — 802.11ac.
New Macbook Air : Features that are still missing
The new mac book air is still missing a key feature — Retina Display. We're assuming that they left this feature out on purpose and will release it in next generation Macbook Air. Or perhaps, they were purely thinking of battery life. What ever the reason was behind it, their competitors such as Lenovo could possibly take advantage of this and release a retina display option for their Thinkpad X1 Carbon series. Will they?

Background: Screen Australia was formed in 2008 by merging three Australian government departments: The Australian Film Commission, Film Australiaand Film Finance Corporation Australia.
1st Logo (2008-2012)
Logo: On a black background, we see the words "SCREEN AUSTRALIA" zoom out from the screen. The second "E" is mirrored. The logo shines while the Australian Government coat of arms fades in below.
Variant: There is a TV version that has the Australian coat of arms on the left and the logo on the right with a vertical line separating the two logos. Also there is an early version used on Bran Nue Dae and Charlie and Boots which is similar to the TV variant but the logo is put on a white background.
FX/SFX: The zooming back, the shining. None for the TV variant.
Cheesy Factor: Cheap animation, not would you would expect from a government department. Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the movie or the closing theme of the TV show.
Availability: Seen on all movies and TV shows funded by the Australian Government from this time period. Examples of Screen Australia movies includeBran Nue Dae, Tomorrow When The War Began and Red Dog.
Scare Factor: Low.
2nd Logo (2012- )
Logo: Throughout the entire logo sequence we see paint, bubbles and strokes circling around each other in a flurry of activity. In the centre of this circling, if we look carefully, we can see a film projector light. Then the various paint objects form themselves in a zig-zag formation. Then the words "Screen Australia" blur inside the paint stroke. Also during the entire logo sequence the paints change colour, in chronological order: green, blue, purple, pink, red and orange.
TV Variant: The coat of arms is still on the left with the new logo on the right. A line still separates the two logos.
FX/SFX: The paint colours dancing around the film projector light and painting itself to form the logo. None for the TV variant.
Cheesy Factor: What is the finished logo meant to symbolise?!? Other than that it's clean and neat, what you'd expect from a government department.
Music/Sounds: A calming, nature-inspired piece which also features the sound of a kookaburra, a native Australian bird. The closing theme for the TV show variant.
Availiability: Seen on all movies and TV shows funded by the Australian Government from mid-2012 onwards. The first film to use this logo was Kath and Kimderella. The first TV shows to use this logo were Howzat!: Kerry Packer's War and season 2 of Go Back To Where You Came From.
Scare Factor: None.

The Power of the Kettlebell
I still remember being introduced to kettle bells. It was back when I first started out as a personal trainer and an older guy at the gym I was working in at the time had a couple. I wasn't convinced at first but the more I read and watched on youtube the more I started to become convinced of the benefits. Way back then I easily weighed just over 13st and was in pretty decent shape for a 23/4 yr old. I remember that Keir (My business partner) had taken a kettlebell training course and was getting quite into them. Back then we had a lot more time on our hands. The gym was still fledgling, its a shadow of how it looks now, we had almost no equipment, and kettle bells were relatively cheap compared to other kit. So we invested in a few. Starting low we soon had a range of different weights and I was well into the swing and using them almost daily.
At the time I was training MMA up in the city and had not been able to train for a while due to getting the gym up and running. First day back at training, and I basically had to convince my coach at the time that I wasn't on steroids. It hadn't occurred to me but consistent constant kettlebell use ( I still have the brutally simple program) had changed my body shape completely. I was leaner, bigger and very strong. Not only that but we had started a friday night KB class and all the attendees (all male at the time) were reporting the same thing. So from then on I was sold on the power of the KB.
For those of you who are already using them, you will know the KB swing is the most 'used' movement generally. Its dynamic swinging motion works all the posterior chain (bum, back of legs, lower back) and is a killer on the cardio. Once you have mastered this move, you can pretty much jump right in to some great kettlebell workouts. Try some of these below:
20 on the minute
Set a clock at one minute intervals. At the start of the minute do 20 swings. The remaining time on the clock is your rest. Do this 10-20 times. Its a great cardio workout and will work all your muscles on the back of your body.
Burped swing ladder
Do 10-8-6-4-2 swings alternated with 2-4-6-8-10 burpees. You can thank me later.
Bells n Bars
Set a 20 minute time limit, do as many rounds as you can of 10 swings and 10 push press. Choose your weights carefully.
Other exercises
The best thing about the KB other than the price is its versatility. Cleans, squats, presses, rows snatches you name it you can do it with the KB. After a small amount of time you will be 'in flow' and have a smooth technique. Don't stop there though, try some of these exercises:
Turkish Get Up
I'm not even going to try and explain this exercise on paper. Watch this LINK but basically the TGU is getting up and down on the floor while holding a KB. Sound simple? It isn't. It challenges pretty much every muscle in your body. Try something like this for a workout:
Run 400m then 5 TGU each arm. Repeat this 3-5 times.
Farmers walk, rack holds, waiter walk…
Remember the blog on why you should be carrying heavy loads in in your training? Well KB's are great for this. Farmers walks are obvious, but rack holds are incredibly difficult and challenge your core posture as well as your breathing. I think they are a good test of staying calm under pressure too.
Balance and stability training:
Going a little of piste but if you have some resistance bands and some KB's – try these…
The total body KB workout (our original program)
So this is the most simple but brutal KB program that I have ever done. It got me great results and I would be keen to do it again. Any takers let me know and hopefully we can set up a time to train together.
All exercises are 3×12 reps.
Two handed KB Swing (heavy as possible)
Superset the next exercises:
A: Double Cleans
B: Double Squats
A:Double Clean & Press
B: Double Bent Over Row
A: Snatch
B: High Pulls
Turkish Get-Up
I know this may seem simple to some of you but actually its a great workout and really did get me super fit. Maybe add in some pull ups or other bodyweight exercises as you see fit. Take a strict 90 seconds rest after supersets and a strict 60 seconds after the swings and other single exercises.
Give it a go and let me know how you get on.

text: Yeo by 1FauxReal published on 2013-06-11T20:48:24Z Minimalist, Trap style, Heavy on Bass and Glitch Vocals. Fake-out builds. Short and to the point. Enjoy! Genre Trap Comment by Dissociated Elephant Nice but a fatter bass line wouldn't harm the song I think. Had to put headphones to notice the subb. Otherwise good I think. 2013/12/18 16:45:00 +0000 Comment by JonahMeltWave @1fauxreal: I like to use a lot sub bass too, cause I don't like a sort of obvious huge bass sound. Sometimes what I do is I put just a lil bit of distortion or modulate the filter a little tiny bit on an LFO on the sub, just to make it a bit more present on shitty bass-less speakers. I dunno, play around with it, have fun with it. 2013/06/29 16:41:03 +0000 Comment by 1FauxReal @deziakproductions: Thanks again. Theres something I could probably do if I was smart enough. Its a two ocsillator bass synth, and the two are in phase, so the result is a lot of 'boom' not a lot of subtle rumble or anything. There is plenty of room in the mix to turn it up according to the spectrum analysis, but not only does it shake the shit out of my car, it blew my leftside out of my headphones, lol. So I dialed it back a bit. 2013/06/21 22:50:02 +0000 Comment by Jared Mintz @1fauxreal: I was listening on really good studio monitors. They obviously don't put out the bass that you may hear with a subwoofer or in headphones, but they can certainly put out some bass. 2013/06/21 22:46:34 +0000 Comment by 1FauxReal thanks I appreciate real feedback. Im trying not to have a bassline, and still with the sort of Trap style, but I agree I think it gets too thin in some parts especially if the sub isn't shaking the room in those thin parts. 2013/06/21 20:50:49 +0000 Comment by 1FauxReal @deziakproductions: Thanks for the feedback. That kick right there works well on my subs in my car, and on my $150 headphones, but really fails on my desktop speakers. Frequency is low. I should probably layer another kick so that it can be heard on more setups. What were you using to listen on? 2013/06/21 20:48:57 +0000 Comment by JonahMeltWave I feel maybe this track could a little bassline or something. 2013/06/21 20:47:24 +0000 Comment by Jared Mintz Solid stuff. It would be nice if you could get the bass to kick a bit harder. 2013/06/21 20:46:50 +0000

Contracting with the federal government is a highly regulated process governed by a maze of statutes and regulations. Government contracts law involves assisting businesses in complying with the complex set of procedures that must be followed in order for companies to provide goods and services to governments (federal, state or municipal) or challenging the actions of the government or a third party in entering into or executing a government contract for goods or services.
Georgetown is a village and census-designated place in Fairfield County, Connecticut, United States. It is located at the point where the towns of Wilton, Redding, and Weston meet. The central portion of the village is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places as a historic district, the Georgetown Historic District. While the village of Georgetown in 1986 extended into four towns (Wilton, Redding, Ridgefield, and Weston), the district includes portions of just two: Redding and Wilton. The village and its surrounding area was also defined as a census-designated place (CDP) in the 2000 U.S. Census. At that time, the population of the CDP was 1,650. Georgetown is located at the southwest corner of the town of Redding, the northwest corner of the town of Weston, and the northeast corner of the town of Wilton. Georgetown residents officially live in and pay local taxes to one of these three towns, but typically identify themselves as living in Georgetown. Georgetown has its own fire district, which also serves the surrounding rural areas not traditionally included in Georgetown, and its own ZIP code (06829).

T-Vine's 2007 Syrah from the tiny Frediani Vineyard was opne of the best wines this winery made in the stellar 2007 vintage. Very limited.
T-Vine Syrah is typically over the top in terms of color, depth and flavor. The 2007 is no exception. You can expect notes of black currant, blackberry and plum, with sweet wood and vanilla in this jammy velvety smooth Syrah.
"In the ultra premium category of wine, the most significant development in 2003 was the widening of the "chic-boutique" niche. The established Napa cult wineries based on cabernet of Screaming Eagle, Harlan, Colgin and others were joined by newcomers named T-Vine, Hundred Acre and two dozen more..."

Jay Z has made yet another investment into a high-quality music-streaming service called 'Tidal'.
Spending $56 million on a large portion of the company Aspiro earlier this fall, the investment has one great cause behind it: helping music artists make money.
Now to some, this might seem like an unethical choice with competitors like Spotify in the mix, however, it solves the biggest problem that many other artists face... and thats either the ability to have control of their music or even making money from it. With mega-stars like Beyonce, Madonna, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Alicia Keys and J.Cole in support and attendance, it is hard to believe that this new platform will take over soon, despite the negative feedback from music companies.
I mean after all, its guerilla marketing. Get a whole bunch of artists together with mega followings and create a service and platform that will solve the issue Spotify and Youtube don't seem to care about.Things you need to know about Jay Z's new found love, 'Tidal':
- 'Tidal' has now been deemed the first service of its kind to be owned by music artists
- 'Tidal' is a global music and entertainment platform will now put music back into the artist's hands
- According to Billboard, 16 artists have inked exclusive deals—most of whom were on hand for the announcement—have each been given 3 percent equity in the company.
- Artists on 'Tidal' will offer "windows" of limited exclusivity to their new music, an incentive for fans to purchase subscriptions and hear their favorite artist's music before it's available elsewhere.
- 'Tidal' is a subscription-based music service offering high quality music and sound. This means, that there are no-ads and artists have full control over the amount of money they make through the amount of subscriptions.
"This is a platform that's owned by artists," Jay Z said in an interview to the New York Times."We are treating these people that really care about the music with the utmost respect."

Stage 5: "Rock 'n' Roll Rocks" is the fifth Stage in the game, Dillon's Rolling Western. Dillon and his companion Russ continue their quest to a lone village in the River Delta where they meet Mayor Gates, troubled by all the fast moving Grocks that scare him.

First Arrival
Mayor Gates: - Oh my! Rangers!
- The cavalry is finally here! Thank goodness!
Russ: - Don't get your dander up! Just go and call the mayor for us.
Mayor Gates: - I... uh... I am the mayor. Yeah, that's right. I'm the mayor.
- We're in quite a predicament! First, we're all surrounded by swamp and rivers, right?
- Makes it tough to get around if you can't swim... It's like a maze of water!
- And now we have these grocks poppin' out of the ground, circlin' around...
Russ: - Quit beating around the bush! What are you trying to say?
Mayor Gates: - G-g-grocks! Comin' out of the ground! New kinds!
Prep Time
Russ: - Hmm... This mayor is off his rocker, isn't he?
- But he's right -- this place is like a maze. It's gonna be kind of tough going.
- We're gonna have to really learn the trails in this place, I'd say.
- Let's try to explore as much as possible before the grocks start their raid.

Russ: - You can move this ancient wall by rolling in that contraption.
[After complete the Block Walls, by rolling in the Spinner device...]
Russ: - This ancient wall is great at blocking grocks, but it can only take a limited number of hits!
[After 5 minutes in the plains.]
Russ: - Hey! Look at the sky...
- The village will be locked during a raid.
- If you've got bussiness in the village, do it now!
[After 6 minutes in the plains.]
Russ: - Watch out! The grocks are coming!

Mayor Gates: - Yee-haw! What a great job! You really showed those things who's boss!
- You were such a help, Rullon! Fine work indeed!
Russ: - What?! Who's Rullon?
- I'm Russ, and my pardner's Dillon!
Mayor Gates: - Oh? Right! I'm sorry! Yeah, I remember now. Really, I do!
- So have you been usin' the home crystal?
- Use it, and WHAP! You're back at the village.
- Well, get some sleep, uh, Duss... Rillon...
Russ: - Duss? Who's he talking about?
Day 2
Prep Time
Russ: - Hey, buddy... I've been talking to the villagers.
- You know the Motogrocks that ride those contraptions out on the plains? They say that they can really make a mess of the defense gates if they get too close.
- I think you're faster than them, though. So let's take them out, pronto!
[After 5 minutes in the plains.]
Russ: - Did you hear that? It's almost time...
- If you wanna go to the village, go now!
[After 6 minutes in the plains.]
Russ: - Watch out! The grocks are coming!
Free Time (Saloon) Day 2
[Select Rest to proceed.]
Mayor Gates: - They're from before our time, so I'm completely stumped on what to make of them.
- But I wonder if those ancient folks also had to fight off the grocks?
- Maybe those old stones could be put to good use. What do you think?
Russ: - You mean the people who lived here ages ago fought the grocks too?
Mayor Gates: - It's possible. I think this place has the look of an old battleground, don't you?
- Maybe we could work these old ruins into the defense of our village.
- Who knows... I don't. It just occurred to me. We may owe those pioneers our thanks.
Russ: - Hmm... I see... A gift from the past...
Day 3
Prep Time
Russ: - Remember that boss grock from yesterday? The one with the fancy blue horns?
- I got the impression it was a bit faster than the red kind.
- Hey, well, at least it's our last day. Let's keep up the good work!
[After 5 minutes in the plains.]
Russ: Did you hear that? It's almost time...
- If you wanna go to the village, go now!
[After 6 minutes in the plains.]
Russ: - Watch out! The grocks are coming!
Raid Time
[After end the Raid Time (defeating all grocks or the duration time expires), a curtscene of Dens disappearing in the ground is displayed.]
Russ: - We did it! The dens are collapsing!
Free Time (Saloon) Day 3
[Select Leave Town to proceed.]
Mayor Gates: - What a rip-roaring job! The village withstood another attack. Wonderful!
- This is the third day, right? So we can relax for a while. But...
- Those grocks keep gettin' stronger an' stronger! I worry about other villages.
Russ: - No need to fret. My pardner's getting stronger by the day too.
Mayor Gates: - I suppose you're right. He really is getting tougher.
- Good luck at your next job. Happy trails, little squirrel.
Russ: - Hey, are you for real?
- In this stage are made the first appears of Block Walls.
