SHRUB OAK, N.Y. — After Beacon's Jarell Brown tied the game at 54-54 with nine seconds remaining, Lakeland's Dan Eremita then drove the length of the floor and was fouled on a layup with 1.1 seconds left.
The senior guard calmly stepped to the line and sank both free throws to propel Lakeland to a 56-54 win over Beacon on Monday.
"When I got fouled I knew I was going to hit the free throws because it's just confidence and knowing that I had the game in my hands," Eremita said. "When you're on the line in that situation you're kind of just zoned out. It's just you, the basket and the ball."
Eremita and senior Alex Perlman led the Hornets with 21 and 20 points, respectively. They combined to go 9 for 12 from the line in the fourth quarter.
"It was clutch," Lakeland coach Henry Weltman said. "Down the stretch in a big game you have to make foul shots. We wanted Perlman and Danny with the basketball in the fourth quarter. Eremita has really improved this year from last year (on foul shooting)."
Lakeland stretched its lead to 49-42 late in the fourth quarter on two straight buckets from Eremita. But Beacon battled back. A 3-pointer by John Gonzalez trimmed Lakeland's lead to 51-50 with 29.2 seconds left.
It was a crucial victory for Lakeland, which improved to 6-8 and ended Beacon's six-game winning streak. Beacon is one of the top 10 seeds right now when it comes to the playoff picture in Section 1 Class A, so the victory should provide the Hornets with some confidence.
"This is a huge win," Eremita said. "We only have a couple games left in the season. Once we start getting a couple wins (in a row) we're going to start rolling."
Beacon jumped out to a 14-10 lead after one quarter, but Lakeland basically controlled the game after that.
"We were making better decisions," Weltman said of what changed after the first quarter. "The defense was fine all game. With the offense, we started looking for the open man and taking unselfish shots."
The Hornets led 25-22 at halftime and held a 38-36 edge after three quarters.
"We were turning the ball over quite a bit in the first quarter," Eremita said. "The key was not to turn the ball over. Once we did that and had control of the ball, we pretty much had control of the game, too."
The Bulldogs are normally a run-and-gun team, but the Hornets limited their fastbreaks and forced them into a half-court offense on most possessions. They tried to always get two players back after offensive possessions, Weltman said.
"We kind of had a good scouting report on them," Perlman said. "We knew where they wanted to get the ball so we put guys there and they couldn't do it."
Lakeland's Matt Tartaglia and Ben Dedvukaj each added five points, while Tyler Troppmann scored four points. The trio made some big shots in the second half to aid Perlman and Eremita.
Brown paced Beacon (9-5) with a game-high 23 points. Jordan Morales added 13 points.
For Lakeland, Weltman is hoping his team can keep the momentum going with rivalry games coming up with Yorktown on Friday and Walter Panas on Saturday.
"Let's see if we can build off of this," Weltman said. "This was a tough win. We were on a three-game losing streak in January, but they're not quitting."
With sectionals upcoming, Lakeland is looking to surprise some people.
"We've proved that we can play with the best teams," Perlman said. "We kept Peekskill and JFK within nine. Now we've got to just keep improving."

Greenpeace activists face piracy charges over oil rig protest
Russia is to press charges of piracy against an international group of Greenpeace activists who tried to scale an Arctic oil rig last week owned by the state energy giant Gazprom. Under Russian law, the crime is punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
"It should be noted that all persons who attacked the platform, regardless of their citizenship, will be brought to criminal responsibility, said Vladimir Markin, the spokesman for Russia's powerful Investigative Committee.
The activists' ship, the Arctic Sunrise, which Russian border guards boarded last week, was nearing the port of Murmansk, having been towed from the scene of the protest in the Pechora Sea. The 30 activists, from various countries including Britain and Australia, were held in the ship's mess for…

Managers should never assume that their employees know what's expected of them. The best way to establish work expectations—and measure job effectiveness during performance reviews—is to put those performance standards in writing.
A well-written job description can become the cornerstone of communication with employees. But inaccurate or incomplete job descriptions can create costly legal risks. Here are eight questions managers should ask themselves when drafting a job description:
1. Does a job description exist for every position you manage?
If applicants complain they were rejected because of their race or gender, you can show a court they were rejected because they didn't meet all the written qualifications.
2. Is the title accurate?
Titles may seem unimportant, but they carry a lot of weight in the workplace and in court. Titles should always match the level of authority and responsibility.

Nigeria: Man dragged to the gallows will now be executed by firing squad

A death row prisoner in Nigeria is due to be executed by firing squad later this week after prison authorities dragged him to the gallows where they hanged four other men on Monday night, Amnesty International has learned.
They were the first known executions in the country since 2006.
Benin Prison authorities in Edo state had planned to hang the man along with the four others, but halted his execution after they realized his death sentence, imposed by a military tribunal, required that a firing squad carry it out.
Amnesty International understands that neither the prisoners nor their families were told of the executions in advance. Secret executions, where prisoners, families and lawyers are not informed beforehand, violate international standards on the use of the death penalty.
"Cruel and inhumane do not even begin to describe the nightmare situation facing this man - and it points to the spectacularly brutal nature of Nigeria's sudden return to state-sponsored killing," said Lucy Freeman, deputy Africa director at Amnesty International.
"The resumption of executions in Nigeria is deplorable and extremely worrying. Edo state authorities have already executed four men this week and still plan to execute a fifth - the Nigerian authorities must immediately halt all executions and return to the moratorium on the death penalty that was previously in place."
The four men hanged at Benin Prison last night still had appeals pending in their cases. Their executions came only hours after a federal High Court had dismissed a lawsuit against three of the execution warrants. The Edo state Attorney General and the prison authorities ignored an appeal and application for stay of execution filed immediately after the judgement. By executing the prisoners, Nigeria has demonstrated a gross disregard for the rule of law and respect for the judicial process.
The fifth man, sentenced by military tribunal, was never able to appeal his original sentence because military tribunals at the time denied defendants the right to appeal - itself a violation of fair trial standards and international law.
Under Nigerian and international law, executions may not be carried out while any appeals are still pending.
"Authorities at Benin Prison simply disregarded the due process requirements under law and in a cold-blooded move they denied the inmates an opportunity to exercise their rights," said Freeman.
The fifth man who is to face a firing squad has been on death row for 17 years, and was sentenced to death by a military tribunal during the military rule in Nigeria before the return to democracy in 1999. Amnesty International has raised serious doubts about the fairness of trials during that period.
Of the more than 1,000 people currently on death row in the country, scores of others were also sentenced by military tribunals before 1999.
"That Nigeria has resumed executions for sentences passed by military tribunals only amplifies the disregard for human rights," said Freeman.
"At a time when West Africa and the world are moving away from the death penalty, it is very worrying that Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan defies the clear international trend and has instead encouraged a step backwards for human rights."
Earlier this month, President Jonathan urged state Governors to sign death warrants for death row prisoners - which in effect allows federal prison authorities to proceed with executions of inmates who are held at state prisons.
The Edo state Governor had signed execution warrants last October for two of the four men executed on Monday.
Amnesty International opposes the death penalty in all cases without exception, regardless of the nature or circumstances of the crime, or the individual's guilt or innocence because it is a violation of the right to life and the ultimate cruel, inhuman and degrading punishment.

Problems installing IDT Audio
A few months ago I installed Windows 7 Ultimate (x86) on this computer and I got all drivers to work except for IDT Audio. Assuming IDT would provide some installation patches later, I just kept putting off. Now, several months later, nothing has come up and I'm still stuck without it. Everytime I try to start the setup file, it would start Install Wizard, but it would then give me an error saying "ExitError:Error=Device Object not present, restart the system and run setup again"

Relations of G. bulloides and G. glutinata
Only few samples exist in the CLIMAP Holocene data in which both species do not co-occur (Fig. 40). Their relative abundances show some inverse correlation. Globigerina bulloides is more abundant in central upwelling zones and areas of high productivity while G. glutinata is more frequent at their margins and in central ocean areas. This is well expressed in the biogeographic maps of Bé and Hutson (1977) in the area of upwelling in the Arabian Sea offshore from Somalia. The central area is occupied by abundant G. bulloides, while a belt with abundant G. glutinata exists in the marginal upwelling zone (see also Brock et al., 1992). Globigerina bulloides feeds on algal prey (Lee et al., 1966), while G. glutinata has more specific preferences for diatoms (Hemleben et al., 1989). Such different feeding strategies may explain why both species are related to productive environments but tend to occupy different zones, probably related to the phytoplankton bloom succession (dinoflagellates - diatoms).
Relations of G. calida and G. siphonifera
It is difficult to argue about possible taxonomic uncertainties in the counts of G. calida and G. siphonifera and subsequent problems in the interpretation of their relations with the physical environment. CLIMAP micropaleontologists have made serious efforts for quality control of their micropaleontologic data and taxonomic standardisation between the different members of the group. Other species, which are difficult to distinguish in their morphology (e.g. G. falconensis and G. bulloides) have distinctly different adaptations and suggest that the similarities in the ecologic pattern between G. calida and G. siphonifera are real. This problem may suggest to include both species in one taxonomic category and demands for taxonomic research.
Relations of G. rubescens and G. tenella
Globoturborotalita tenella is distinguished from the generally pink-colored G. rubescens by a secondary aperture on the last chamber. Pre-adult stages of G. rubescens and G. tenella are difficult to distinguish in their morphologies and taxonomic discrimination is made more difficult by the existence of a white form of G. rubescens in bottom sediments of temperate regions (Hemleben et al., 1989). Morphologic similarities and the nearly equal relations with the physical environment seen in G. rubescens and G. tenella may suggest ecophenotypes rather than different species. In other species variants are consistently more differentiated in their preferences compared to G. rubescens and G. tenella. Both species require taxonomic and ecologic research.
Relations of G. sacculifer and S. dehiscens
Bé (1965) considered S. dehiscens as a deep-water form of G. sacculifer in a terminal (reproductive) stage. In the laboratory, however, Glbigerinoides sacculifer was observed during gamete release and did not develop the "S. dehiscens" form (Hemleben et al., 1987). Other authors emphasize morphological differences in juvenile stages of the two species (Hemleben et al., 1989). Pattern in the plots of relative abundances vs. physical parameters, however, is very similar for G. sacculifer and S. dehiscens. Both species differ drastically in their relative abundances and comparisons of their relations with the physical environment are difficult. The correlation coefficients of their relative abundances computed with various regression methods are all well below 0.1. This, however, may be caused by the low relative abundance of S. dehiscens (< 5 %) which causes statistical uncertainty due to counting error in the data. Potentially, S. dehiscens may occupy a deep-water habitat with a biogeographic distribution similar to that of G. sacculifer. The possible existence of vertical clines in phenotypes, in contrast to the commonly observed geographic clines in other species, motivates more research on relations of the two species.
G. crassaformis and G. truncatulinoides
The origin of G truncatulinoides as a species, about 2.8 - 2.9 My ago, was analysed in a morphometric study by Lazarus et al. (1995). They suggested a sympatric mode of evolution, in which the differentiation and "geographic isolation" of ancestor (G. crassaformis) and descendant species (G. truncatulinoides) occurs through the occupation of different niches (e.g. depth habitats, seasonally different cycles, etc.) in the same biogeographic region (see discussion by Lazarus et al., 1995). The substantially different specialisations of both species seen in the relations with the physical environment (Figs. 19 and 24) support this view.
Dominant species
Table 1 lists those species which dominate at least one of the 461 samples used in this study. Only six species, however, can be considered as dominant species on a biogeographic scale: N. pachyderma, G. inflata, G. bulloides, G. ruber, G. glutinata, and G. menardii. Broad relations with sea surface temperatures in distinct biogeographic provinces exist for N. pachyderma in the polar and subpolar provinces, G. inflata in the transitional province, G. ruber in the subtropical and tropical province, and G. menardii in the warm tropical province. The latter species is not commonly a dominant species and may reflect selective dissolution (Kipp, 1976). Globigerina bulloides and G. glutinata dominate in productive high latitude environments and areas of upwelling. The biogeographic relations suggest different preferences of the two species for the central and marginal oceanographic and biologic conditions in such areas.
importance of the vertical water structure
Some species show most pronounced relations with the vertical temperature or density gradients, e.g. G. truncatulinoides, G. hirsuta, and T. quinqueloba, among others. On a biogeographic scale, the boundary between water masses with vertical
temperature gradients of more or less than 6 ûC in summer, seems to be the major limit between high and low latitude faunas in planktic foraminifera. This is well seen in the ecologic ranges of e.g. T. quinqueloba (Fig. 39) and N.
pachyderma (Fig. 33), which have their southern limits near this boundary and G. ruber (Fig. 15b), G. menardii (Fig. 22), and P. obliquiloculata (Fig. 36), which have their northern limits at this boundary. The limit corresponds with about
40û latitude in the North Atlantic and about 30û latitude in the Indian Ocean (Fig. 4). Other physical parameters do not show this clear separation between ecologic ranges of low latitude and high latitude faunas.

QED Reference USB (A - B)
Man. Part No.: QE324
QED Reference USB (A - B)
The Reference USB cable is designed to transmit high definition 24bit/192kHz digital audio between USB audio components such as a computer or storage device and a high performance DAC. It utilises a carefully engineered geometry including an integral Ferrite jacket, electrically isolated power conductors and an impedance controlled data lane to reduce timing errors within the digital signal, for cleaner audio transmission.
QED Reference USB features an integral Zn/Mn floating ferrite jacket. When measured using an eye pattern generator at the correct data rate for high bandwidth USB, the cable exhibits 50% less jitter than competitor cables without the ferrite jacket. Our findings indicate that ultra low jitter in an isochronous data stream results in an audible improvement in sound quality. Certainly, in listening tests, the Reference cable with the ferrite jacket was preferred to samples without the jacket.
Five nines oxygen free copper conductors, LDPE dielectrics and legendary build quality combine to create audible sonic improvements. Our extensive listening tests comparing competitor products at much higher price points have astonished us! We urge you to compare Reference USB not only to your current favourite cable but also alternative brands and models at any price!
QED Reference USB uses a tightly controlled 24 AWG 99.999% OFC twisted pair which is bound by an aluminium mylar wrap with a drain wire pulled underneath. This arrangement is identical to that used in our high performance HDMI cables and is not usually found in a USB cable. Because the impedance of the data lane is kept strictly within defined limits, the jitter added to the data stream is kept to a minimum.
Many audio enthusiasts feel that USB power cables carrying charging currents and PC power supply spikes near to the isochronous serial data stream can have an adverse affect on sound quality. One answer is to remove the power cables altogether but this deviates from the USB spec and can cause inconvenience especially if the DAC electronics require USB power. QED Reference data lanes are uniquely electrically isolated by using a double layer shield comprising a 100% aluminium mylar wrap and drain wire connected to ground.
- 99.999% Oxygen Free Copper twisted pair of 24 AWG
- Low density Polyethylene (LDPE) high performance dielectric- for sonic purity and low return loss
- Dual electromagnetic screen using an aluminium mylar wrap and 99.999% OFC shield braid
- Unique inner Zn/Mn impregnated ferrite screen -for advanced signal protection and reduction of unwanted frequency noise components
- Ultra Low Jitter design for reduced timing errors
- 24c Gold plated plugs

text: Why it's done By Mayo Clinic Staff Print You've likely seen TV shows in which hospital workers "shock" an unconscious person out of cardiac arrest with electrified paddles. An ICD does the same thing only internally and automatically when it detects an abnormal heart rhythm. An ICD is surgically placed under your skin, usually below your left collarbone. One or more flexible, insulated wires (leads) run from the ICD through your veins to your heart. Because the ICD constantly monitors for abnormal heart rhythms and instantly tries to correct them, it helps treat cardiac arrest, even when you are far from the nearest hospital. How an ICD worksWhen you have a rapid heartbeat, the wires from your heart to the device transmit signals to the ICD, which sends electrical pulses to regulate your heartbeat. Depending on the problem with your heartbeat, your ICD could be programmed for the following therapies: Low-energy pacing therapy. You may feel nothing or a painless fluttering in your chest when your ICD responds to mild disruptions in your heartbeat. Cardioversion therapy. A higher energy shock is delivered for a more serious heart rhythm problem. It may feel as if you're being thumped in the chest. Defibrillation therapy. This is the strongest form of electrical therapy used to restore a normal heartbeat. During this therapy, it may feel as if you're being kicked in the chest, and it might knock you off your feet. The pain from this therapy usually lasts only a second. There should be no discomfort after the shock ends. Usually, only one shock is needed to restore a normal heartbeat. Sometimes, however, you might have two or more shocks during a 24-hour period. Frequent shocks in a short time period are known as ICD storms. If you have ICD storms, you should seek emergency care to see if your ICD is working properly or if you have a problem that's making your heart beat abnormally. If necessary, the ICD can be adjusted to reduce the number and frequency of shocks. You may need additional medications to make your heart beat regularly and decrease the chance of an ICD storm. An ICD can also be programmed to perform other functions, which include: Antitachycardia (tak-ih-KAHR-dee-uh). If you have an unusually fast heart rate, the ICD delivers painless, low-energy impulses that pace or stimulate the heart to beat normally. This can prevent the need for cardioversion or defibrillation. Pacemaker. Most modern ICDs can also function as a pacemaker, delivering low-energy impulses that stimulate the heart to beat normally. Recording heart activity. The ICD records information about variations in your heart's electrical activity and rhythm. This information helps your doctor evaluate your heart rhythm problem and, if necessary, reprogram your ICD. Subcutaneous ICD Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD)Subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD)A subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (S-ICD) is a less invasive alternative to a traditional ICD. Using a special insertion tool, your doctor implants the S-ICD device under the skin at the side of the chest below the arm pit and connects it to an electrode that runs along the breastbone. A subcutaneous ICD (S-ICD), a newer type of ICD, is available at some surgical centers. An S-ICD is implanted under the skin at the side of the chest below the armpit. It's attached to an electrode that runs along your breastbone. You may be a candidate for this device if you have structural defects in your heart that prevent attaching wires to the heart your blood vessels, or if you have other reasons for wanting to avoid traditional ICDs. Implanting a subcutaneous ICD is less invasive than an ICD that attaches to the heart, but the device is larger in size than an ICD. Who needs an ICDYou're a candidate for an ICD if you've had sustained ventricular tachycardia, survived a cardiac arrest, or fainted from a ventricular arrhythmia. You might also benefit from an ICD if you have: A history of coronary artery disease and heart attack that has weakened your heart. A heart condition that involves abnormal heart muscle, such as enlarged (dilated cardiomyopathy) or thickened (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) heart muscle. An inherited heart defect that makes your heart beat abnormally. These include long QT syndrome, which can cause ventricular fibrillation and death even in young people with no signs or symptoms of heart problems. Having other rare conditions such as Brugada syndrome and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia also may mean you need an ICD.

On the eve of Scott Campbell's "If You Don't Belong, Don't Be Long" opening, NOWNESS sent photographer Stefan Ruiz to capture Campbell in his lair. "The nostalgic, associative context of his work becomes especially clear upon entering his studio, filled as it is with tattoo memorabilia, cuttings and artifacts. The ephemera are sourced from locations as diverse as flea markets in Paris to prisons in Mexico City, where Campbell recently spent a month fashioning "Frankenstein-looking machines" (improvising devices from Walkman motors, melted toothbrushes and guitar strings) to work on inmates that he found were in sore need of a sense of individuality."
More looks at Scott Campbell by Stefan Ruiz after the click.

Although there are many positives when it comes to having a baby, many new moms will agree that post-baby weight isn't one of them. But one reality show star isn't having any trouble shedding her baby weight. As a matter of fact, Snooki looks amazing only a month after giving birth to baby Lorenzo.
Wetpaint Entertainment has photos of the Jersey Shore star looking slim and slender at the end of September. It even gives a breakdown of her weight on the site, putting her at 133 pounds shortly after Lorenzo's arrival. She's already admitted to losing ten pounds, but in her newest photo, she looks like she has lost more!
What the heck is the reality show star's secret? It might help that this was her first baby and most first-time moms (myself included) have an easier time losing the baby weight than after baby two or three. It also helps that she is breastfeeding. which definitely helps new moms to shed the baby weight faster.
Is she eating healthy, though? That's probably the biggest thing to be concerned about when losing weight. If you lose weight too fast (and do it in an unhealthy manner), you put yourself at risk to harm your body and to gain the weight back quicker. However, she is reportedly eating incredibly healthy, which is a good thing.
Personally, I think Snooki looks fantastic after giving birth and she seems to be a doting mother. I've followed the Jersey Shore stars through celebrity entertainment sites and, I must say, I am shocked to see how this little meatball is flourishing in motherhood. Like everyone else, I expected this to be a train wreck, but she is doing a great job at being a mother (and losing the weight) and I commend her!
How long did it take you to lose the baby weight? Tell us below in the comments section!

Photographer's Note
Creepy Kolmanskop, Ghost Town
There is a slowly sinking city in the desert of southern Namibia, Africa, a ghost town called Kolmanskop. In the 1900s, diamonds were discovered just sitting upon the sand, waiting to be found, so people from all over the world with diamond fever flocked from the port of Lüderitz to the once desolated lonely desert. Kolmanskop became a mining town, but after the First World War when diamonds sales dropped, the sand-clearing squad failed to show up. That was the beginning of the end; Kolmanskop turned into a ghost town being buried by sand and trapped in time.

A bit of a break from your recent outdoor desert shots to bring us one of the desert coming indoors here, Kris. I've recently been teaching my students about the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s, when dust storms in the midwest literally covered communities; this could be a scene from that as well. Very well documented decay here, and shooting through the door adds nice sense of scope as well as providing a color shift. Thanks!

Hello again, Kris,
This is an interesting, albeit somewhat eerie, image. A great composition, with almost a mirroring effect of the two rooms. I like the colours, the light, and your POV in particular. TFS the story of this place!

ABC's Nightline explains exactly what's going on in the great state of Texas:
Here we have a clear-cut example of innovation being stifled by special interests – car dealerships – using government to suppress competition. And this isn't the first time Tesla has had to undergo this sort of attack.
We need to change this system of political corruption so the free market can actually work. There is a plan to upend the cycle of bribery, the only question is whether we'll follow it.

Heading into the TV debates, the leaders and their entourages will be revising their approaches to take into account the context and how it may be changing.
Over the years, I've helped prep both Conservative and Liberal leaders for televised debates, including using sophisticated moment to moment technology to learn more about what works and why. So, I've been thinking about what research at this moment would probably tell Stephen Harper and Michael Ignatieff to focus on in this potentially critical moment in the campaign.
( This is in no way intended as partisan advice, just some thoughts on what guidance research would likely produce.)
Tomorrow, some thoughts for the Conservative leader. Today a few for Mr. Ignatieff, about the English language debate:
Above all, stay loose. Continue to look energized by this election, let people see that you are having fun. One of the most powerful non-verbal cues that politicians send is very simple: the difference between looking upbeat and looking tense. Kim Campbell's appeal was high and rising when she radiated optimism; as soon as she looked worried about the economy, jobs, the deficit, the troubles of the world ... her support began to evaporate. A strong challenger's campaign needs to spark unease with the status quo but at the same time deliver reassurance about the future: a relaxed self confidence helps a lot.
Find ways to illustrate how different you are from Mr. Harper as a human being. For example, when you show a willingness to wade happily into the fray of politics, while arguing that Mr. Harper seems to be fleeing or dodging scrutiny in every way possible, this contrast is effective for you. It borrows from and builds on things that have concerned some voters about Mr. Harper for a while.
Highlight crisply and often how different you feel the Liberal and Conservative agendas are. Make your policy case in short powerful bursts. Your pitch as I hear it so far is that tax cuts, law and order, and a strong defence are good things, but not all that Canadians dream about or aspire to: and that health, education, a decent retirement deserve more attention, not less. Harness, don't challenge, growing confidence in the economy. People prefer to believe that the future will be better, more than the next crisis is just days away. Make this optimism your friend: voters will buy that a strong economy can help reduce our deficit, meet health and education goals, and eventually cut our taxes too. Don't hesitate to say that Canadians are the ones who are making the economy grow, not the government.
Finally, imagine you are talking to three individuals. The first is a normally Liberal voter who stayed home last election (there clearly were many of these). Getting these folks motivated to get to the polls may be your easiest task, and almost certainly will be the most rewarding one. The second is a New Democratic Party supporter increasingly uncomfortable with the Conservatives, more open to you and your platform, and more willing than ever to think about voting strategically. The third is a Liberal-Conservative swing voter, someone who has drifted from the Liberal Party in recent years, but is at heart a Blue Liberal or Red Tory. They hadn't expected to really consider you in this election, but they may be reconsidering, based on concern about how partisan, ideological, or closed-off the Harper government can sometimes appear.
In any of these debates, it's smart to try to imagine what your opponents will say, and how you may need to defend yourself. The normal temptation is to overdo defensive preparation: fear of being hurt is the stuff that keeps one up at night.
But my guess is that after months of hammering you through paid advertising, this is a night when Mr. Harper will probably avoid doing too much more of this: meaning its an opportunity to play mostly in your opponent's end.
Having said that, you won't win over many of these voters by being relentlessly harsh, people are tired of voting against something or someone. Take a hard attack line when you need to, but spend more time letting voters know that you can be a positive choice if that's what they are looking for.
Tomorrow, some thoughts on how Stephen Harper could use the debates to strengthen and consolidate his position.

Casual game company Gamook has raised $1.5 million in funding from U.S. Venture Partners, Venture Beat has learned. Rick Lewis of USVP confirmed that his firm invested in the company and that he sits on its board of directors. However, Lewis said the company is in stealth mode and isn't able to describe its operations yet. Gamook is based in Menlo Park, Calif. The company doesn't yet have a web site.
Casual games are those that are played by mainstream consumers rather than hardcore gamers. The category is beset with competitors, from PopCap Games in casual game development to Electronic Arts' Pogo.com casual online games site.
Venture capitalists have taken more interest in casual games recently. Hardcore games for video game consoles generate most of the industry's revenues, but casual games have hit a $2.25 billion in revenues. Last week, Trinity Ventures invested $3.2 million in casual games company Fluid Entertainment, which is making online games for kids.
I spent a lot of time at the Casual Games Summit at the recent Game Developers Conference. Check out our coverage here.

Danny Jacobs of Brooklyn needed a signature victory to announce he was a contender in the middleweight division. He got that victory last night with a devastating third-round knockout of Giovanni Lorenzo at the Best Buy Theater in Times Square.
The debut main event of the Golden Boy Live series of Monday Night Fights, televised by Fox Sports 1, did not disappoint.
After two close rounds, Jacobs hurt Lorenzo with an overhead right hand in the third and finished him with a flurry of punches that dropped Lorenzo to the canvas. Referee Steve Willis counted out Lorenzo at 2:05 of the third round.
It was the fourth straight win for Jacobs since returning to the ring after battling bone cancer that wrapped around his spine and briefly left him paralyzed. He improved his overall record to 26-1 with his 23rd knockout and now must be mentioned among the top contenders in the middleweight division.
"I owe it all to the man above," Jacobs said. "God has got me through a lot in my life. I know I made a statement. Brooklyn came out and supported me and it fueled me up and got me so excited. I knew I had the skills over him."
Lorenzo landed a good left hook early in the first round that got Jacobs' attention. Working off his left jab, Jacobs answered with a hard right.
The jab was Jacobs' best weapon. He used it to keep Lorenzo off-balance and would follow his touches with a right hand. Lorenzo was determined though often swung wildly, looking to land a big punch.
Jacobs ducked most of Lorenzo's wild hooks and landed counters. He finally landed the heavy leather when he rocked Lorenzo with an overhand right midway through the third round. Lorenzo's legs buckled and Jacobs went in for the finish. He landed a solid left hook that dropped Lorenzo to the canvas. It was the first time the New York-based Lorenzo (32-6, 24 KOs) had been stopped in his career.
In the co-feature, Bronx junior middleweight Eddie Gomez improved to 15-0 with a fourth-round TKO over Steven Upsher Chambers (24-3-1, six KOs) of Philadelphia.
Meanwhile, Staten Island's Marcus Browne improved to 6-0 with six KOs, stopping Robert Hill of Monroe, La., 59 seconds into the first round. Browne, fighting at 175 pounds, wanted more work.
"I spar with great pros and great amateurs," Browne said. "I do all that in the gym. I just want to showcase it on this stage."

A pair of blown fuses shut down the Minnesota Twins' replay system before Monday's season opener at U.S. Cellular Field, and manager Ron Gardenhire hoped it would be fixed by gametime.
Technicians were working to solve the problem as the Twins prepared to play the Chicago White Sox.
"How's that going to work out? I get to kick dirt again?" Gardenhire asked. "So hopefully we'll get it before the game starts."
The two monitors perched on a wall in the back of the Twins' locker room were disabled. Gardenhire was talking to Twins videoman Sean Harlin, trying to figure out how they would coordinate to challenge plays.
Gardenhire said the White Sox could still use their system if the Twins' monitors don't work.
"I just might lose my battle a little quicker than I would have if we have a guy telling me it's OK to challenge it," Gardenhire said. "I've got the same questions right now — what happens if it goes down? We were told it's still going to be in play because it's out of New York. We've just got to figure out how.
"I'm talking with Sean as we speak because it's down right now. Where do we go if ours stays down? I want to know that," he said.
Gardenhire kept a laminated card telling him which plays were reviewable under Major League Baseball's new expanded replay format.
MLB spent more than $10 million to wire the 30 stadiums with Fiberlink cable that will transmit images from at least 12 cameras in every park.
Despite the hiccup, Gardenhire said he supports the system.

" Genre: R&B & Soul - Soul / Artist: Duffy / Audio CD released 2008-03-03 at Polydor Group "
* Prices may differ from that shown
I bought this album purely on the strength of "Mercy". I almost expected the rest of the album to be as good but sadly I was let down...
The album starts off promising. I enjoyed the song "Rockferry" as it's slow, haunting and beautifully executed by Duffy. I enjoyed "Mercy" as I already knew the song and was familiar with it. "Warwick Avenue" is nice, quite melodic and haunting at the same time. The highlights of the album are these three tracks and these three tracks only. I was a little disappointed with the rest of the album to be entirely honest. Going by the strength of "Mercy" I was looking forward to hearing the album, however it just didn't grow on me and I ended up passing it on to my Auntie who liked it. She said it was more "her type of music" or something.
I don't know if I would compare her to Amy Winehouse as I much prefer the style of Amy's music. This album was far too boring and samey for my liking. The songs (apart from the three I have mentioned) are long winded and they all sound the same, so much so that you can hardly tell them apart.
The album is dreary, depressing and far too slow. I think she needed more upbeat songs like "Mercy" to break up the album a little bit.
Overall I wouldn't recommend this album, unless you suffer from Insomnia...
I have quite a large music collection built up over the years & have quite a varied taste in music, I will listen to all genres from all periods, new or old.
One thing I do dislike are manufactured artists & groups where the looks of an individual & their ability to dance takes president over their singing or ability to write songs & play musical instruments.
It really doesn't matter who manufactures them, X-factor judges or money obsessed music lables, it's just not right that truly talented bands & individuals lose out to the expense of less talented people. Despite all that, the best of luck to anyone who makes it into this demanding industry.
When I first heard Duffy on the radio I thought she was another manufactured artist who used her pretty looks to make it, how wrong I was.
At first I heard her music on the radio, usually in the background, I remember hearing 'Mercy' & liking it but little else. Then I heard more & being impressed with her voice but it wasn't until I heard her new single release 'Stepping stone' which nearly knocked my socks off that I decided to actual go out & buy her CD.
Born Aimee Anne Duffy in Bangor Wales in June 1984, she didn't come from a musical family. Her debut single 'Rockferry' was released in December 2007 followed by 'Mercy' in February 2008 & her debut album 'Rockferry' a month later. It has since sold 2.25 million copies.
The running order of the CD is:
1 Rockferry
2 Warwick Avenue
3 Serious
4 Stepping stone
5 Syrup & honey
6 Hanging on too long
7 Mercy
8 Delayed devotion
9 I'm scared
10 Distant dreamer
All tracks are written by Duffy with other individuals. Tracks 1, 3, 5, 10 with Bernard Butler. Tracks 2, 6, & 8 with Jimmy Hogarth & Eg White (with a name like that I bet he got teased at school!!). Tracks 9 with Jimmy Hogarth & Tracks 4 & 7 with Steve booker.
So here we have a young talented girl who can write her own material & who has an outstanding voice, nothing manufactured there.
The CD starts with the debut single Rockferry a piano based ballad that speeds up with some clever guitar work. The song sounds like a modern interpretation of Dusty Springfield's material, an impressive benchmark to say the least.
I feel Duffy's voice is just as good as Amy Winehouse & these songs on her debut album highlight the range she can sing to.
There is no better example of that than the next track Warwick Avenue, which I heard being played on the radio so many times, it is a really beautiful track.
My favourite & the one that made me go out & buy this CD is 'Stepping stone' with its wonderful haunting sound, a real future classic.
Her second single the more up-tempo 'Mercy' is also featured & although I quite liked it when I first heard it on the radio, when I really make the effort to hear it I enjoy it all the more. It sounds like something from the 1960s but still sounds fresh & modern all the same.
The final track 'Distant dreamer' is a great track to finish the album with as it slowly builds up & then slows down to the end & is beautifully sung. This particular track reminds me of something that Phil Spector has worked on.
I expected this album to have a couple of great tracks & the rest be 'B' side rejects. What I got was only 10 tracks but no fillers at all, just 10 genuine impressive songs which are very well produced.
The only downside is the packaging, its pretty poor, possibly the record company didn't want to spend a fortune on a debut CD from what was an unknown artist but they could have done better than this effort. Nine pages on the CD booklet of absolute drivel.
If Duffy can keep on the 'straight & narrow' & not be pressurised by her record company to producing another CD within a tight time frame & be left to create fabulous music of this calibre. Then I reckon she has a sparkling career ahead of her. I would fully recommend this CD to any music lover.
Duffy's debut album Rockferry released in 2008 has turned the welsh songstress into a global superstar. She was unknown before this CD release but now she's a household name, so what exactly is it about this record that makes her so special?
Well Duffy has a very distinctive & unique voice which stands out and therefore one which you will instantly recognise from the crowd. Her amazing voice makes every track stand out & as a result in my opinion I don't think there's a bad track on this album.
If I had to describe the sound of this album, I would say it's quite a soul souns which a 60s or 70s feel to it. You wouldn't notice it was released in 2008 but that's one of the reasons I love it so much as it's so different from everything else out there.
You will know the hit singles Mercy, Warwick Avenue & Stepping Stone which all feature. Also title track Rockferry and Distant Dreamer are equally as fabulous.
This is a great album which will grow on you the more & more you listen to it. If you haven't given it a listen yet, you really are missing out on a musical masterpiece. It's an essential CD which should be part of any serious collection.
I bought this as a treat to myself due to not having alot because my kids need things all the time.
The best thing about duffy is that she started singing in a club and was sought out to be a professional singer and produce albums. I can understand why. She has got one of the most unique voices I have ever heard and her music is catchy although quite slussy.
I am not keen on all the songs on this album which is a shame because I tend to skip them so I do not listen to all of it and feel I have wasted a bit of money and should have just downloaded the songs that I liked.
There are also only 10 songs on this cd which is less than on most albums which has not impressed me much. I paid £13 for this from asda when it first came out. I still listen to this when I am doing my ironing and find it relaxing although skipping songs occasionally.
Warwick Avenue
Stepping Stone
Syrup and Honey
Hanging on too long
Delayed Devotion
Im Scared
Distant Dreamer
The ones I like are Rockferry, Warwick Avenue, Stepping Stones and Mercy the rest of them I could give or take to be honest.
The Cover
This is not something special it is a photo of duffy in black and white. I think this could have been made more eye catching and original.
I wouldn't recommend to buy this album but to download the songs that you like from her. I think that if you are to buy it make sure you are not paying too much for it, it is not worth the money that I spent on it.
Ever since Duffy released her first album it and she have become hughely succefful the world over. Rap stars love her and she now advertises major soft drinks. In 2009 she won three BRIT Awards, British Breakthrough, Best Female Solo and Best British Album. I am however, undecided about her. She definitely has a very unique sound, a husky, dark voice that is different from anyone out there at the moment but I find her album a bit samey. I think she suffers from the fact that each of her songs sort of sounds the same as the other and there's not too much different about the songs. Also I do find that the songs have been so played over and over again that they are starting to get a bit boring. Also, I thought the recent television commercial she did for Diet Coke was awful. Her singing voice was dreadful, she sounded like a little girl trying to sing and I think that has put me off her quite a bit too.
Duffy's full name is Aimee Ann Duffy and she is from Wales. She is a very pretty girl with long blond hair. Rockferry, her debut album was released in March 2008. According to an article I read, the album became a worldwide success, becoming the best selling album in the UK in 2008, with 1.7 million copies sold. The album was the fourth best selling album of 2008 worldwide. Apparently, according to Duffy, the album title Rockferry, is loosely based on Rock Ferry, a suburb of Birkenhead, on the Wirral Peninsula and approximately ten miles from the Welsh border and three miles from Liverpool.
Rockferry is the first song on the album and I do quite like that one, it's quite dark and slow but a good sound. Mercy is probably the most famous song on the album as it's the first one she released and in my opinion was played to death on the radio. It went straight in at number one when it was released. According to Duffy, the song is autobiographical and is about "sexual liberty" and "not doing something somebody else wants you to do" The rest of the songs on the album are as follows:
"Warwick Avenue"
"Stepping Stone"
"Syrup & Honey"
"Hanging on Too Long"
"Delayed Devotion"
"I'm Scared"
"Distant Dreamer"
The thing I like about Dufy as a vocalist is the factthat she has a wonderfully distinctive voice and mixed with the soul influenced songs that she performs it proves to be a winning combination and this is a great break through album for the Welsh singing star who has already gained a few awards for her songs and performances.
I like the fact that her music benefits from a wide range of influences and also that this album hardly has any weak tracks on it, in fact there is only the one track which lets the album down as far as I'm concerned.
The album kicks off with the title track Rockferry which has a nice flow to it and a rather simplistic backing track that helps to accentuate her voice.
Perhaps my favourite track on the album is up next, the excellent Warwick Avenue, there is a 60's feel to this with a Motown influence and it is a super song. Another favourite is Syrup and Honey which has a jazz blues feel to it and is a strong track. Add in the quality of Mercy which was a big hit and you have some very strong tracks to enjoy and these are complimented by the other tracks on the album.
For me the only weak track is Stepping Stone which I have not really taken to, it is a real something or nothing song and smacks of a filler.
This is overall a strong album and great driving music as well, definately worth checking out.
Duffy - Rockferry (2008)
So, Duffy has been called the best singer to come out of Wales since Tom Jones, the new voice of British Soul, and won a Grammy for this album. 'Right' I thought, better listen to some more of her than just 'Mercy', so off I went to iTunes and listened to a bit of each track, ummed and ahhed and then downloaded the album, I mean, for £7 (alright for those that are pedantic, £6.99), a Grammy winning album, can't be bad eh?
She certainly has a distinctive voice, this is the first thing that attracts me to any vocally based act, is it different enough to stand out? Well, yes in this case; Smokey, very 60's, a bit like a slightly higher vocal than Marianne Faithful, though, as I will explain it changes somewhat dependent on the song.
~~The Tracks~~
The opening track 'Rockferry' is so 60's it is quite startling, even the production sounds 60's; it is slow, measured, Smokey, mature and I have to say, in parts, a little boring, but it is a decent enough opener that sets the scene.
'Warwick Avenue' is a corker of a track and whilst not reviewing the video, it is well worth watching. I love the whole build up to the first chorus which again, is definitely 60's swinging London. The musical production is superb and her vocals are crisp and soulful. A fantastic track, fantastic vocal and worth the download alone.
'Serious' is a bit more of the same, though has a slightly more 'pop' and contemporary feel to it, not sure if this was released as a single, don't recall it, it woulda done well I reckon.
'Stepping Stone' has a kind of 'folk' thing going on but sounds a little disjointed, her vocal seems to high and not very controlled and the background music seems to be a strange fit, I don't like this, though that is just opinion, many people will.
'Syrup and Honey' This is perhaps my favourite track. A real ballsy blues based number that has shades of Etta James, Dinah Washington, even, dare I say it, Billie Holliday. The vocal is full of angst and sends a shiver or two up the spine. The backing guitar work is sparse enough to allow her to do her thing and I actually think we hear the true Duffy hear, she lets it all go in places and it is fabulous.
'Hanging on too long' is a bit Motown in production and vocal, bit Supremes, Gladys Knight et al...smooth, sultry but a little bland I'm afraid.
'Mercy' is the first track I heard of Duffy, from the great 'wop, wop' start we have a mod/soul feel, this could be Martha Reeves. Top tune, I can just see all the miniskirts and mohair suits, absolute stonker. Watch te video too, Northern soul is still sooooo cool. There is nothing I do not like about this track....feel good, dance along, great vocals, great backing singers, great musical composition...great.
'Delayed Devotion'...if there is a weak track, this is it, and yet, it's really okay.
'I'm Scared'. This is quite a hard song to describe...starts off pretty acoustically, in fact it starts of 'pretty' it is a 'shallow' start, but then it kind of 'burst' into song with plenty of backing, great strings, then it ebbs again, it ebbs and flows throughout and to be honest, I cannot make up my mind about this. I have a pretty crude criteria for most songs...I try and fit them to play lists on my iPod and I can't place this. It is a good song but just does not fit.....until the last 30 seconds and then we have a classically 'soul' song...mmmmm.
'Distant Dreamer' is the final song on this album and it is another strange one, her vocal has been 'played' with in the studio and it sounds like she is singing in an empty room, yet the backing music is very full on. It is again late 60's, early 70's in style and reminds me of Paris for some reason, all a bit too cultured, pleasant but pretentious.
~~Final Thoughts~~
I am very sceptical of 'the next big thing' whenever they arrive, they generally have a 'let down' couple of tracks on the first album and are hyped to be better than they are.
Duffy seems to be, from this album, the exception rather than the rule. Her voice is distinct, special, and very, very big. Some of the tracks on this album will stand the test of time of that I have little doubt. Whether she finds a niche in the market I'm not so sure. There are plenty of singers (think of Amy Winehouse) that have similar vocal talents that have come and gone....if she produces a few more bluesy numbers she will get a cult following in my opinion. 'Syrup and Honey' was as surprising to me as hearing some of 'Pink's' angsty vocals.
Would I recommend this album? Oh yes, definitely, for the two weaker tracks (not weak, just weaker) you get 8 very good songs, of which a couple are better than good.
Great debut, let's here some more.
At first I really disliked Duffy, not only for her music but mainly her voice, the way she sounds for some reason really annoyed me, I think it's the whole wobble in her voice that just got at me a bit, but after hearing some more of he album and listening to her more and more she really has grown on me.
The singer Duffy, was born is wales and this is only her first album. It was released in march last year so its been out for quite a while now, but it shot straight to number one as soon as it was released and stayed in the charts for quite a while as well making it the best selling album of 2008.
She's also had a number one single from the album which is probably her most well known song, and also my personal favourite Mercy. it's a very fast paced song and that's what I like about it as a lot of her others are a bit slower.
Track listings.
2.Warwick Avenue
4.Stepping Stone
5.Syrup And Honey
6.Hanging On Too Long
8.Delayed Devotion
9.I'm Scared
10.Distant Dreamer
The album only contained 10 songs in total, but each one was excellent, Duffy also recorded some more songs for a deluxe edition of the album which I believe contains a few more songs however I havnt got this yet. I do know it has rain on your parade on it though, which I also like.
I think my favourite songs on this album must firstly be mercy, after then probably Warwick avenue, and then rockferry. Each of her songs are quite different and they are all very well written, and well constructed. All I know is that I certainly cant wait for her next album if its going to be any where near as good as this one way.
Album cover ~
Black and white which suits her 'from a different era illusion' a moody sultry pose from Duffy which looks good and not too showy which suits her. The logo of her name is displayed clearly and gives the personal feel of an autographed copy...almost.
Tracks ~
Rockferry - This is the title track and is very good to be the first song as it booms in with stong bassy notes, as with all Duffy's songs you can tell there's something personal behind the song and the lyrics describe a place. very bluesy yet rocky too a good beat.
Warwick Avenue - Again this seems to have a nice story to it very personal, it has a very sweet melody with the chorus slightly more upbeat. The tone of this track seems as if it's from a different era like a lot of Duffy's songs another reason why I like her, very soulful.
Serious - A much softer, chilled out tune not one of the best but still very good again the tempo rises with the chorus and you can tell she is singing about what she knows - I have heard Duffy say about this song that if the person she wrote it about knew it was about them they'd think she was a 'total weirdo' as they don't even know she likes them in that way!
Stepping stone - A great track, haunting melody and very soulful, the lyrics can again really resonate with you, especially if you've ever been used as someone's stepping stone.
Syrup and Honey - This track is one that especially reminds me of a totally different era, very Motown style, slowly sung but a great song.
Hanging on too long - Another one which starts slow with a slightly haunting tune and then Rocks up a notch for the chorus with lyrics like 'I was a fool for you, right from the start.' it's another relationship related story but then many songs are. The chorus is what stands out and is made more powerful by the build up of the rest of the song.
Mercy - An awesome track, her most famous for all the right reasons. Upbeat and rocky and served to introduce us to Duffy in all her 60's retro Diva glory.
Delayed Devotion - Very catchy chorus, a great sing-a-long another mix of slow and upbeat.
I'm Scared - Very sweet and slow to start with. A nice tune very melodic. with another nice set of lyrics telling a story about missing someone whose left her (another relationship ending song- but very good all the same)
Distant Dreamer - Very airy fairy feel which suits it's title, a great track to close the album because its quite slow paced and has the sound of a finale to it.
Duffy's voice and stage presence~
I have seen her live and she's very endearing in the way she owns the stage she admits 'I can't dance' but there's a lot of cute little moves like swinging the mic. Her voice is fab and very throaty sounding...as I know I keeping pointing out very 60's and from a different era. She also sounds (and looks) much more mature than her 24 years of age.
Where to buy and prices ~
Mine was from Tesco ages ago for about 7-9 pounds roughly but that was back when she was relatively unknown, I'd go with amazon where prices are from £6.40 for a used copy or from £7.98 for new.
I wanted to buy this album after the massive-selling single Mercy thrust Duffy into the spotlight earlier this year. I loved Mercy but decided to wait to hear a few more of the tracks before I committed myself. After hearing and liking Warwick Avenue and Stepping Stone, I took the plunge.
Although none of the tracks on Rockferry are what I would call bad or unlistenable, those three tracks remain my favourite and the ones that I play the most. I do find sometimes that Duffy's voice starts to grate a little after listening to a few tracks in a row, which means that I can't listen to the whole album in one go. This isn't a problem for me though as I usually listen to music on my iPod and simply stick it on shuffle mode instead.
I would recommend this album to people who like Duffy's voice in general, but if you only enjoyed Mercy, you could be disappointed with the rest of the album.
This lady sprung out of nowhere last year and was thrust to the forefront of the UK music scene, off the back of her huge number one hit 'Mercy'. She has since gone on to show that she is more than a one hit wonder.
Who: Duffy had the biggest selling album last year with 'Rockferry' and one of the biggest selling single singles. 'Mercy' was number one on the singles chart for a month.
On this album: You will know 'Mercy' with its thunderous groove and breezy vocals, which seem to get more fiery as the track develops. Duffy slows this down on 'Warwick Avenue,' a tearjerker which sees her lamenting of lost love. This track has a glorious sixties feel about it. 'Stepping Stone' is a highlight, showcasing her shrill tones to wonderful effect. 'Rockferry' is an anthemic song which makes you think of long nights spent on the ocean waves.
Critique: There is a good mix of uptempo numbers and ballads and she has a good set of lungs on her. You might not like the music but you will be exposed to it everywhere you go for the next year or so.
Verdict: Own it
Considering Duffy had the biggest selling album last year over Kings Of Leon, Leona Lewis & Coldplay i thought that this record was worth giving a try to see what it was like. Duffy has been described as the next Amy Winehouse and listening to this record i can understand this. Duffy has as good a voice as Winehouse but Duffy's music is more maturer and real than that of Winehouse.
Duffy to me signifies fun, soul, a brillant voice and some great production. I was hestiant i had this feeling at first that every track would sound like the song Mercy which obviously is a cracking tune and got that brillant catchy hooky chorus but i was impressed that the rest appeared to be as good.
Rockferry is a masterpiece and i mean the song. It's mature and i love that song - the lyrics are deep, real and meaningful and i think it showcases Duffy perfectly and is a brillant opener to the album. Warwick Avenue obviously is another single, i think this was a really good uptempo ballad - i think it's catchy defintely and mature. Serious really is serious, it's very dramatic and emotive certainley. I think there's some great lyrics but what really makes the song is the way Duffy sings the song with passion and emotion capturing and showcasing this lyrics brillantly.
Stepping Stone sounded like a mix and combination of the hooks and style of the first three songs. Syrup & Honey and Hanging on Too Long are more examples of good songs that are quite average but Duffy's original voice turn them into great and good. I dont think this is the best songwriting i have seen but one of the greatest examples of a singers voice and production overpowering the song into a frenzy and creating a hit record.
Mercy i am obviously full of praise for, it's a cracking tune and i just keep humming that over and over ''you got me begging you mercy, why dont you release me?'' the lyrics are so real, impactful and meaningful - this is a meaningful record and the last 3 tracks end the album on a high note. Produciton wise, well done Duffy this is a true soul record that is modern but sounds like from the 60's, there is single after single on it and with a voice like that no wonder it was the number 1 UK album of 2008 in sales.
duffys album and duffy is one of a kind,she has a very unusal in her manor and her singing voice and the way she approachs ways to write her song. Her songs are very heart warming and you can feel her pain and love she says wot she feels but not out right she uses objects and things she loves and hates to describe the way shes feels,she loves her home and her lifes shes been on ups and downs but if u want some one with soul feeling and a amzing voice that touches you,and shake ur ass to,she is unquie in her own way and i love her album to bits she is spirational and isnt one of theses lolli pop heads who follows the crowd she is true to herself and all the fans around her,i hope she brings out another album becuse i will be buying it
This album Rockferry by Duffy can do no harm to any music lovers ears. Its an easy listening cd being classed as soul/motown, blessed with the unique voice of the welsh singer. You almost feel like shes taken you back in time with her choice of genre and style of singing.
I was not drawn into buying the cd by her first single "mercy" i must admit.But... Last year before anybody had a whiff of the first single, she was on the Jools Holland show and performed a song called "Stepping Stone" which is track 4 on Rockferry. That song had me instantly hooked as at the time i could relate to the lyrics .I searched the internet to find out about the new singer. I came across her myspace and listened to her other songs and liked what she was about.
As much as i love Duffy, i must say that there are only 3 songs that grasp at my heart strings and make the album worth buying.
Track 2. Warwick Avenue, Track 4 Stepping stone and Track 6 Hanging on Too Long.
Credit given where credits due... as i'm a singer myself i found it amazing that i connected 100% with the 3 songs i mentioned above. It was like she had taken the words and feelings from my head which could possibly mean shes managed to connect with the rest of the nation. It's hard not to relate to her songs.
The album art does reflect the mood of the album so do expect sad, tear jekers that make you want to reflect on your own love life.
The Album cost £12.99 from woolworths and i was just really happy to find those 3 songs!
Duffy - Rockferry! A fantastic album from a fantastic new artist.
Duffy, an up and coming new artist who was made famous for her first single 'Mercy' . Dufy is known for her querky 60's style appearance and her unique voice.
Duffy is often compared to artists such as Amy Winehouse and Dsty Springfield, which she does not appriciate.
The actual album itself is quite short and has only 10songs. Two of these have been released so far. These are 'Mercy' which I believe reached top spot and the slower song 'warwick avenue'.
This album is simply amazing it shows 60's style crossed with blues, crossed with love songs crossed with the modern era.
The album itself is well worth a buy and you will sing your heart out..guarenteed!!!

We booked a last minute all inclusive holiday to the Top Amaika Hotel and were thrilled with the choice from Blue sea holidays. The view from our bedroom wasn't the best overlooking some flats but we spent so little time in the room it didn't matter. The room was big and clean with lots of extras, Including a fridge. I loved the food and with snacks wine endless tea in the bar and a lovely dining room I thought 10/10 but my friend Felt the plates were cold and she didn't like the choices bit… Read Full ReviewClick here to view holiday offers on Expedia
