Sour - Other
No IBU
1,711 Ratings
Kettle soured over several days with high-lactic cultures, for a clean citrus acidity to balance and compliment fruity hops. Low ABV and just enough sourness to make it truly sessionable. Since we believe there is so much potential within this style, with so many amazing fruity hops to choose from, we couldn't commit on a set hop combination. Every new batch will have additions of something different during the last moments of the boil, bringing loads of character, but little bitterness. Letting the acidic nature intertwine with the juicy, fruitiness of our chosen hops.

The Copenhagen Declaration; a showdown? - Madsen in Kristeligt Dagblad
Miikael Rask Madsen has been interviewed by Kristelig Dagblad about the upcoming Copenhagen Declaration.
Mikael Rask Madsen and Professor of Constitutional Law at the University of Copenhagen Jens Elo Rytter has stated to Kristeligt Dagblad that although the Danish government's proposal of a reform of the European human rights system is not a true showdown with human rights, it is still of great importance.
The declaration is ambitious, addressing the root of several of the highly controversial subjects, but it is also a realistic initiative that could be supported by the other member states, Madsen believes. With the declaration, national courts will have a greater influence on the human rights system, which has been one of the major criticisms in recent years, as there has been some dissatisfaction that the Strasbourg court has had so much importance at national level.
Overall, Madsen's conviction is that the declaration will ensure stability in the European human rights system.
Mikael Rask Madsen is Center Director and Professor at the Faculty of Law, University of Copenhagen, Centre of Excellence for International Courts (iCourts). Mikael Rask Madsen's research is focused on globalization and the role of legal institutions and professionals in these processes, including international courts and their evolutions and challenges, the role of legal elites in the globalization, the development of the legal profession and legal knowledge and power.

Corneal Crosslinking
Cross-linking is a type of procedure in which it strengthens the cornea of the eye after the effects of keratoconus take place in a person's eyes. The way the procedure works is by applying a type of riboflavin that is liquified into the eye's surface. The substance will then get to work and remove any corneal ectasia when exposed to ultraviolet lighting. It can also be combined with the Intacs procedures for more vision lasting results.
To the type of patients that aren't that compatible with contact lenses, Intacs offer a far more relieving and less complicated option to treat the eyes. In fact, many physicians would recommend that method and even delay using the corneal transplant method. They believe that with Intacs alone, they can help benefit eyesight and delaying the transplants as a whole.
The purpose of Intacs are to achieve a better and improve vision for the keratoconus patient, even meaning that they don't need to wear eyeglasses or contact lenses. With Intacs, it's much easier and less stressful to do, as many who have done this procedure rarely have any complications with their own eyes.

When it comes to the eyes, there isn't much we do that actually helps protect them besides the whole glasses and sunglasses techniques. Even when we're on our desk, typing away and handling our business, there is the possibility of having eye strains in the process of our work, and that doesn't benefit the eyes at all.

The "Boys of Summer" aren't meant to play in the snow. This weekend will mark the turn of the calendar to March. All teams have reported to spring training and baseball is around the corner. The first regular season game is April 5th. As I look out my Chicago suburb home, I see about a foot of snow on the ground. It doesn't feel like summer, nor does it feel like baseball. It's hard to imagine this city, along with many other cold-weather baseball cities will be ready for a baseball game in 35 days. Rob Manfred has been all for changes since taking over as commissioner, including acknowledging several potential schedule problems. One issue I have not heard discussed is the fact that many teams are playing baseball in below freezing weather at the beginning of the season. Some of the discussion of shortening the baseball season is to avoid having baseball games in November, as winter begins. There is no way to control which teams will be playing in the World Series, and it's just as likely that Boston will be playing in the cold as it is that San Diego will be playing games in the 80s. There IS a way to control which teams are playing home games in April but why is nothing being done about it?
There are currently 17 teams that one can consider play their home games in a cold-weather non-dome stadium: Baltimore, Boston, Chicago (two teams), Cincinnati, Cleveland, Colorado, Detroit, Kansas City, Minnesota, New York (two teams), Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, San Francisco (stretching a bit), St. Louis and Washington. That is just over half of the 30 teams in the league (57%). In April, out of the 333 games that are currently scheduled, 183 of them will be played in those 17 parks (55%). That makes sense if you're looking to make a balanced schedule, but what is the reason it needs to be balanced? With over half the teams being played in these cold-weather cities obviously some games will feature two cold-weather teams. There should be adjustments made to at least play those games in the warmer of the two cities. All 13 of the warm/domed stadiums should be played in for at least the first two weeks.
Furthermore, by common sense a night game can be considered to be colder than a day game. Out of the 183 games, 86 of them are scheduled to be night games while only 53 have been scheduled to be a day game. There are 44 games that are currently TBA and here's to hoping they are wisely scheduled under the sun.
The owners will tell you that they want these games to be at night due to school still being in session and attendance will drop for that reason. If the game is played in the 40s, attendance will be low regardless. This adds to the argument that if the schedule is manipulated where the cold-weather cities get more home games later in the summer, they will be able to schedule them at night, bringing in more attendance. It would be interesting to hear the argument against this. I would think possibly some teams would not want to start on the road and there are certainly advantages to playing in your home stadium. Do these advantages outweigh playing in winter hats and gloves?
Weather is of course hard to predict but there are forecasts out for the first week of the MLB season. There is only one series that is scheduled to currently be played in below freezing weather. The low forecast for the Cubs-Rockies series in Denver is 30 each day, and one of the games is a night game. There are 20 other games in the first week scheduled with a low temperature forecast below 40 degrees.
There is nothing better than enjoying a baseball game on a hot summer day. It just doesn't look right watching a game on TV when the players are wearing long sleeves under their jerseys. However, it's much more comfortable for me to be watching it on the TV than going out to the ballpark and sitting in the cold.

STOCKHOLM • Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce swept to victory in the Stockholm Diamond League 100m on Thursday with a 10.93sec triumph which sent out a powerful message to her world championship rivals.
The Jamaican, the reigning Olympic and world champion, edged out Tori Bowie of the United States (11.05sec) and compatriot Natasha Morrison (11.22sec).
Fraser-Pryce, 28, was running for the first time since setting the season's best time in the sprint at Paris a month ago.
Her performance on Thursday was a resounding warning to her rivals, just three weeks away from the World Championships in Beijing where she will be the defending champion.
The Jamaican star is also the reigning world champion in the 200m and with her team-mates in the 4x100m relay.
"There will always be a lot of pressure to cope with. I am the defending champion so I will be the No. 1 target," she said. "But I am not worried and I am looking forward to going to China."
Fraser-Pryce will now head to Japan for a training camp ahead of the Aug 22-30 World Championships in the Chinese capital.
"There are still many things to work on - the start, the transition, the finish. I am not just going to sit around and wait," she said.
Qatar's high jump star Mutaz Essa Barshim slumped to a fourth successive Diamond League loss, a run of form which makes his season best of 2.41m, set in Eugene in May, appear a distant memory.
He has now been beaten at Oslo, Paris, London and Stockholm.
He was second on Thursday but his 2.29m was trumped by the US' Jacorian Duffield who triumphed with 2.3m.
In the men's 110m hurdles, Spain's Orlando Ortega won in 13.18sec, ahead of European champion Sergey Shubenkov of Russia (13.22sec). Defending world champion David Oliver of the US was third in 13.24sec.

Rated 3 out of 5 by LK24 from Strange color I just bought the towelettes with white tea extract. I opened the pouch and the first wipe was yellowish and when I pulled it out, it had a brownish pinkish stain on the creases. Honestly looked like makeup. I pulled a few more out and they all had a beige tint it them. Is this normal?

Rated 1 out of 5 by Bhjn from Burrrnnnn Okay I know y'all claim to be completely natural but there is NO WAY these products are natural. I literally got what felt like a chemical burn on my face from using these a few months ago and then my face broke out sooo bad. Since then I've started as a consultant with a direct sales makeup and skin care company and since using their products my face is all better. But I would suggest y'all get a dictionary and look up what the word "natural" means or drop the word from all advertisements completely because these products are not natural.

Rated 1 out of 5 by izzythehypebeast from worst makeup wipes ever if i could give 0 stars i would. these make up wipes are the worst make up wipes i have ever used. first of all they don't take any make up off they just rub it around your face. after using these i always have mascara all over my face and these wipes do nothing to get any of it off. second of all they make my face sting profusely when they advertise that they're meant for "sensitive skin" when i don't even have sensitive skin and they irritate me, i can't even imagine what they would do for people with sensitive skin. 0/10 would never recommend just like all burt's bees products i've ever tried. this brand needs some serious re-formulating.

Rated 3 out of 5 by BringBackFullSeal from I love these wipes but hate how fast they dry out! I have used these wipes for years and have always been a fan. I just wish they had the old seal, the one with the actual close top, instead of the new adhesive seal. Multiple times have I had to use two or throw away my first 1-8 wipes because they dry out now. Burt's Bees!! Please bring back the full seal closure!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jamesjl from Feels clean For a while I couldn't find a good cleanser to use at night that wouldn't leave me feeling too dry or oily causing acne. I use these face wipes every night (with Burt's Bee'a gentle foaming royal jelly cleanser and sensitive skin moisturizer) and my skin has been much clearer. I struggle with combination skin. It's also nice seeing the dirt on the wipe cuz you know it's actually doing it's job. I also don't wear makeup.

First Korean AI-based medical firm to be listed on the KOSDAQ
SEOUL, South Korea, Dec. 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — JLK Inspection, a company specializing in world-class AI-based medical imaging solutions and a company of the Born2Global Centre, was officially listed on the KOSDAQ index on December 11th.
JLK Inspection, famous for its world-class AI-based medical imaging solutions is now the first Korean medical AI company that has its name in KOSDAQ.
For two days, from December 2 to 3, JLK Inspection offered its shares for public subscription through Korea Investment and Securities Co., and the Korea Exchange approved the new listing of JLK Inspection on the KOSDAQ on December 10. The trading of the company's shares began on December 11 (expected subscription amount of KRW 18 billion and two million shares issued with a face value of KRW 100 per share and confirmed offer price of KRW 9,000). With this move, JLK Inspection has become the first Korean company in the AI-based medical industry to be listed on the index.
Founded in 2014, JLK Inspection is a company that specializes in the manufacture and supply of AI-based medical solutions.
It is particularly known for its development of AIHuB (AI Humanity Benefit), a medical platform that uses AI to diagnose and provide support for diagnosing diseases that affect all parts of the human body. AIHuB is a solution that analyzes a variety of medical images and clinical data using big data-based AI algorithms that are capable of not only detecting changes in the human body caused by diseases but also finding the root causes of those diseases. It has been designed to utilize conventional medical imaging equipment, such as x-ray and CT, as well as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic resonance angiography (MRA), and ultrasound equipment, meaning that it can be used to detect a wide range of diseases.
JLK Inspection has been adopting different business models and accelerating its entry into the global market. Its technological expertise has been recognized around the world, with the company having secured a total of 14 certifications from Korea and abroad, including five medical device certifications from the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety, seven CE marks for medical devices in Europe, and two certifications in Southeast Asia.
Regarding the company's listing on the KOSDAQ, JLK Inspection CEO Kim Dong-min said, "It is very significant that we are the first Korean company specialized in medical AI to be listed on the KOSDAQ." He added, "Now that we are listed on the KOSDAQ, we will accelerate our entry into the global market by establishing additional branches in major countries around the world and promoting joint research and clinical studies with overseas hospitals." Chief Executive Director Kim Jongkap of the Born2Global Centre also commented, "We will work even harder to support Korean companies in their efforts to enter the global market, thus paving the way for more companies to achieve success and be listed on stock exchanges like JLK Inspection."
JLK Inspection has been a member of the Born2Global Centre for three years, from 2017 to 2019, and has received a wide range of support for its advance into the global market.

IGP Crime Mujtaba transferred to Police Housing Corporation; advisor to Governor says has been given 'choicest posting'.
A top police officer in Jammu and Kashmir, who was instrumental in securing the conviction of the accused in the Kathua gangrape and murder case, has been transferred a week before the convicts' appeal comes up for hearing before the Punjab and Haryana High Court.
Inspector General of Police (Crime) Ahfad-ul-Mujtaba has been posted as Managing Director J&K Police Housing Corporation. Mukesh Singh, an IPS officer on Central deputation, has been posted as the new IGP Crime.
Mujtaba's transfer has raised eyebrows in official circles because the Crime Branch recently wrote to the government, recommending that the acquittal of one of the accused be challenged, and the appeal should seek enhancement of punishment of the other convicts.
However, K Vijay Kumar, advisor to J&K Governor Satya Pal Malik, who holds the Home Department portfolio, said that the Kathua case has nothing to do with Mujtaba's transfer.
"He has not been shifted. He has been given the choicest posting," Kumar told The Indian Express. "There is no negative at all in this transfer. It is only very positive and we appreciate the good work (done by him).
Kumar said that the recommendations of the Crime Branch are with the Home Department.
On June 25, the Crime Branch wrote to J-K government's Home department recommending appeal against the acquittal of one of the accused, enhancement of sentence against the convicts and proper legal defence against the convicts' appeal in court. When the Home Department returned the file to the Crime Branch, it sent a second letter of request on July 5 and repeated for the sanction to challenge the acquittal.
"The file (sent by the Crime Branch) is under process with the Home Department and it will be done," he said. "Hundred per cent, it (Mujtaba's transfer) has nothing to do with the (Kathua) case. Mukesh (Singh, the new IGP Crime) has experience in CBI and NIA and will definitely do a good job," Kumar said.
"This (shifting of IGP Mujataba) is de-motivating for the police officers," said a senior J-K Police officer. "Instead of appreciating their hard work, when you move officers like this, it sends a wrong message in the belt force. Such moves discourage the officers".
IGP Mujtaba handled the politically charged rape and murder case of the eight-year-old Bakerwal girl at Rasana village of Kathua in Jammu last year. With at least two of the then BJP ministers backing the group which was supporting the accused, IGP Mujtaba formulated a Special Investigation Team (SIT) comprising of officers from across the state.

Valentine's Day is coming up very quickly. While it may seem like you have plenty of time to make plans, you really don't. This is especially true if you need to make reservations somewhere. Restaurants often fill up very quickly, while events are sold out days or weeks in advance. If you need an idea for something to do this Valentine's Day, here are some events in the DC metro.
Dinner, of course, is always an option. There are some great restaurants in the area that have Valentine's Day specials. Again, you really need to make reservations ahead of time—make them now if you can! Restaurants in the area having specials include 2941 Restaurant, 701 Restaurant, Bangkok Joe's, Art and Soul, Bastille, Asia Nine Bar & Lounge, and Bourbon Steak.
If you want to add a little spice to your dinner, you can take a dinner cruise on the Potomac River. There are several different cruises, including ones on the Spirit of Washington and the Odyssey.
The National Museum of Crime and Punishment may not seem like the ideal place for a romantic date, but their "Crimes of Passion" event is actually geared towards romantic couples. From February 11 until the 15th, visitors get handcuffed together and then get to explore the different special exhibits exploring crimes of passion.
There are a few concerts going on this year in the DC area, including Valentine's Day-themed concerts at the Strathmore Music Center and at the Kennedy Center.
For a more interactive event, you and your sweetheart can sign up for the Watson Adventures Scavenger Hunts. This amusing search sends participants into an art museum to search for nudity and answer entertaining questions. Note that reservations are required.
These are just a few things going on in the DC area this Valentine's Day.

Joe Root burdened by England captaincy: Swann
Graeme Swann believes the England captaincy has become a burden on Joe Root.
MORE: Mitch Marsh selection spells trouble for Peter Handscomb | Rodney Hogg hammers Australian selectors for Mitch Marsh recall
The former England off-spinner said that Root's ascension to the top job has affected his batting, with aggressive dismissals in the opening two Ashes Tests against Australia highlighting the pressure that comes with being the team leader.
"It's a monkey on his back and it will continue to grow with so many fifties not being hundreds," Swann told ESPNcricinfo.
"I'm still convinced it's because he's had the captaincy put on him. I wish he didn't have the burden and could just be our best-ever batsman, but that decision has been made and this tour will be tough on him because that pressure will build and build."
Root has been criticised for his poor conversion rate compared to the likes of Steve Smith, Kane Williamson and Virat Kohli.
The England skipper, although one of the world's leading batsmen, has 13 Test centuries and 35 fifties, while Smith, Williamson and Kohli all boast higher fifty-to-century conversion rates.
Since becoming captain earlier this year, Root has passed fifty in nine of his 16 innings.
However, he has converted just two into centuries, with 190 at Lord's against South Africa and 136 against West Indies at Edgbaston his only tons as skipper.
In the midst of his first Test tour as captain, Root is facing the greatest test of his leadership to date after England went 2-0 down the Ashes series with heavy losses in Brisbane in Adelaide.
In both matches, Root made fighting fifties, but his poor conversion rate continued to haunt him as he was dismissed shortly after reaching his half-century.

• To provide an anatomical basis for diagnosis and treatment of the tarsal tunnel syndrome, the relationship of the tibial nerve to the tarsal tunnel was investigated in 31 feet of 20 cadavers. The bifurcation into medial and lateral plantar nerves occurred within 1 cm of the malleolar-calcaneal axis in 90% of the feet. Seven of 11 bilateral specimens were bilaterally symmetrical in the bifurcation location; three varied within 1 cm between sides; and in the fourth cadaver, one side bifurcated at 3 cm and the other at 5 cm proximal to the axis. The calcaneal nerve showed great variability; in seven cadavers, it arose within, in eight cadavers proximal to, and in five cadavers there were multiple branches arising both proximal to and within the tarsal tunnel.

Andy Ryans, the burly, bearded, ebullient marketing director of the Hallé Orchestra, is a smoker. During the interval in concerts he nips outside the Bridgewater Hall, Manchester's stripped-pine citadel of classical music, for a fag, and what he hears underlines just how tough it can be selling this sometimes mysterious art form.
"People are walking past to get to the bars at the bottom of the road," he says, "and you hear, 'I wonder what goes on in there. I've seen them all through the glass.' I heard one passer-by say, 'Me mam goes. She goes at Christmas. Apparently, she took me there once when I was a kid.'"
I met Ryans, a one-man recruiting sergeant for classical music, on a quick tour of the country to attend the opening concerts of the new season and attempt to take the pulse of live classical music. I liked his fervour, his love of the Hallé. He told me that at concerts he goes up to members of the audience he doesn't recognise, to say hello, ask them why they have come and what else they are thinking of going to, and explain how they can get discounts if they block-book. I had a vision of terrified concert-goers, clutching glasses of warm white wine, backing away as this huge, bearded evangelist advanced towards them.
But it's working. The Hallé, after years in the doldrums, has bounced back since Mark Elder became music director in 2000. It gives up to 70 concerts a year in Manchester - selling, on average, 70% of the tickets for the 2,400-seat Bridge- water Hall - and another 30-plus outside Manchester. "Support for our concerts is extremely good," says Ryans. "The Hallé has a fiercely loyal following, and Mark's arrival in 2000 really took a hold of that loyalty."
I found the same story in Liverpool. The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra was in dire straits, artistically and financially, five years ago, but with an almost complete change of personnel, and a charismatic new music director in Vasily Petrenko, it has been reborn. Liverpool is an earthy, intimate city, and you can feel the warmth concert-goers feel for its famous orchestra when you enter its homely hall in Hope Street.
But again, you face the same question as in Manchester: should we celebrate the people who are coming in increasing numbers, or should we fret at the people who don't come? Is that glass of white wine half full or half empty?
The figures on concert-going issued by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport offer comfort. At the last count, 8.3% of people say they attended a concert at least once over the past year. A recent report by Mintel put the figure even higher: 15.9% of those questioned said they had attended a classical concert.
I am somewhat sceptical of these figures, arrived at by asking people about their cultural habits. "It's like when you ask people how often they have sex," says Stephen Maddock, chief executive of the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. "What they say their frequency is and what it actually is when you look at the statistics are rather different things. They always exaggerate."
As I went round the venues, I tried to get a more accurate measurement of the size of the audience for classical music - the number of people on mailing lists and attending concerts, rather than saying they attend concerts. This produced figures significantly below the DCMS and Mintel estimates. Take Birmingham, a city of a million-plus inhabitants. The CBSO sold 106,000 tickets for Symphony Hall last year, spread across 60 concerts of dizzying variety - film music, Bollywood events, family fun concerts, as well as more traditional fare. Assume some multiple attendees - the core who will come two or three times a year - and you end up with about 40,000 people. That's just 4% of the CBSO's immediate catchment area; less if one accepts that its real catchment area - the whole West Midlands conurbation - is much bigger than that. It's similar in Manchester and Liverpool. The core concert-going audience is very small.
"The audience for classical music has always been small," a critic said to me at the opening night of the CBSO's season in Symphony Hall. "Classical music is hard, it won't appeal to everyone, let the masses carry on wondering," was the message. But in general I don't buy that critic's view at all. The huge response to Pavarotti's death showed that classical music can reach far outside its core constituency. The remarkable Proms concert given by Gustavo Dudamel and his Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolivar and the way in which music-making in Venezuela has been used as a vehicle of social change also demonstrate just how hidebound such views are.
Music can be for everyone; but we, the public, can be inert, and need to be activated, encouraged and organised. Both the Hallé and the Liverpool Phil have schemes by which people in the community bring groups to concerts. Ryans says one of these team leaders - all unpaid music lovers - will bring as many as 270 people to a concert. In the past, these were often groups of work colleagues going for a night out. What a brilliant audience- building model, with small cells spreading the message to the rest of society.
I went to two concerts in Liverpool. An enjoyable Grieg evening - the piano concerto and the incidental music to Peer Gynt - and, the following lunchtime, a recital by Boris Giltburg, the previous night's soloist. Giltburg attracted a small audience for his recital - perhaps 250 - and made a valiant attempt to drown out the pile-drivers that currently surround the hall. The Grieg concert drew the Liverpool Phil's most traditional audience. As I arrived at the hall, the coaches and mini-buses were disgorging groups of mainly elderly music-lovers. The Liverpool Phil has close links with Classic FM, and here was the tuneful fare that station prefers.
This audience would confirm the suspicions of those who say classical music appeals only to a narrow demographic: getting on in years, retired, white, middle class. Mintel's report showed - not that we really needed showing - that the typical attender of classical concerts is 50-plus, well educated and white. Venues attempt all types of strategems to broaden the audience - Bollywood and matinee concerts in Birmingham; film music, visual accompaniment and a pioneering concert on Second Life in Liverpool; a new scheme called the Sonic card targeting students in Manchester - but it's a battle. Even Ryans the evangelist accepts that people come to classical music late, and that 50- to 70-year-olds are the core audience.
He mentions a nine-year-old who came to a recent Hallé performance of Mahler's First Symphony and enjoyed it. "I saw him at the end of the concert," he says, "and there's no doubt about it - we've got him." But, adds Ryans, he may not start coming regularly for 30 years - when he's got the time and the money, and he's tired of whatever passes for pop in 2037.
"It's the complete opposite of cinema," says Maddock. "With cinema it's all about getting them in there the first time. It's all about that one sale, whereas with us it's all about building a longer relationship." Classical music is like the Catholic church - it thinks in centuries.
Despite the orchestras' confidence that quality and the sheer joy of live performance will sustain them, there are big demographic questions. Will the group who are now in their 30s and 40s, a generation that received only the most rudimentary exposure to "serious" music at school, slot into their stalls seats as they get older? How can the working class - whatever that means these days - be attracted to concerts, be made to realise that this is not some weird ritual for posh people? (At Bridgewater Hall they say first-time attenders sometimes ring up and ask what they should wear, as if black tie is obligatory.) Most of all, how can people from the ethnic minorities (another naff term, like "working class" and "classical music" itself), be attracted?
The latter problem is particularly acute for Maddock in Birmingham, with its large black and Asian population. Can the cultural chasm be bridged? "You've got to start at the youngest possible age," he says, "by getting people involved in youth orchestras and youth choirs. Their make-up is now much more typical of the general population in Birmingham than our adult chorus, for example, so there is a generational change there. You have to address your programming, too, and in our case that has meant doing a number of programmes targeted very specifically at minority ethnic audiences." They may turn out for Bollywood hits, but will they come back for Berlioz? "That is definitely happening," says Maddock. "We are gradually seeing a more diverse audience overall."
Robert Van Leer, head of music at the Barbican, sounds a cautionary note, arguing that target-setting on access and audience make-up should not be applied dogmatically. "I want to bring down barriers," he says, "but to me that's different from going out, finding a group of people and saying, 'OK, we're going to bus you in because we think you should see this.' That's too big-brotherish for me." You should make the prices as low as you can, and the experience of concert-going as inclusive and unintimidating as you can, but that's about it. People have to find their own way to classical music.
So back to the wine glass - half full or half empty? Roger Wright, controller of Radio 3 and incoming head of the Proms, can see both halves of the glass. But as long as it is true to itself, he says he is an optimist about the future of classi ... about the future of music. "Just look at the music scene in London," he says. " Gergiev with the LSO, Jurowski with the LPO, Esa-Pekka Salonen with the Philharmonia, Jiri Belohlavek's wonderfully developing relationship with the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Their concerts will represent something that is real, as opposed to 'Here's another orchestral concert with AN Other conductor.'"
My week of concert-going - I also went to two recitals at the Wigmore Hall and Gergiev's thunderous Mahler 3 to open the LSO season - left me convinced Wright was right. Music does face challenges - its audience is too narrow, the finances are knife-edge, the old subscriber base is dwindling, there remains a tension between populism and artistic risk-taking, the media is too obsessed by chasing the zeitgeist, society at large is apathetic, if not hostile. But there is a decent-sized audience that remains loyal, and if programmers are confident and opinion formers stop pandering to trash culture, the potential is limitless.
In the 1960s pop pushed classical music to the margins; composers seemed to accept their marginal role and wrote largely impenetrable pieces, forgetting their duty to communicate. Now pop itself is old, the Beatles are part of the canon, and composers of serious/classical/non-pop music (delete according to taste) are trying to engage again. Musical history is a continuum, and the concert hall must not be allowed to become a museum.
I wrote this piece listening to a wonderful new recording of Monteverdi's L'Orfeo by Rinaldo Alessandrini and Concerto Italiano. Music first performed in 1607 that is still fascinating, moving, alive. Music that anyone of any background or colour, age or outlook, could respond to. "I am Music, who with sweet accents/ Can soothe each troubled heart," as the prologue has it. Music that speaks of - and to - humanity.

Jane Austen: The Complete Novels (Collector's Library) (Hardcover)
Jane Austen is perhaps the best loved of all English novelists. Her knowledge of human nature is remarkable, and her awareness of the importance of class, money and appearances makes her a peculiarly modern author. She addresses the politics of dating, courtship and mating with an incisive intelligence that both foreshadows and outstrips romantic novels of today.
Her teasing novels of gentle worldliness have been brought to new audiences by modern film and television productions, and this complete edition of her full length novels will be a welcome addition to any library or collection of books. This edition contains the delightful illustrations of Hugh Thomson, the finest illustrator of Jane Austen's works.
About the Author
Jane Austen was born in 1775 at Steventon, Hampshire. She was the seventh child of the local rector and her life, by modern standards, was uneventful. In 1801 she moved with her parents to Bath but returned to Hampshire when her father died, settling in the village of Chawton. She remained there until 1817, when she moved to Winchester to be within easy reach of her doctor. She died that year, at age forty-one, and is buried in Winchester Cathedral, which also contains a plaque in honor of her memory. Four of her novels were published anonymously in her lifetime; two more, one of which was Persuasion, appeared posthumously.

Kavin Mittal-led Hike buys US' Zip Phone, free voice calling soon
The Kavin Bharti Mittal-led homegrown chat application, Hike Messenger, on Thursday announced the acquisition of US-based free voice-calling company Zip Phone for an undisclosed amount.business Updated: Jan 08, 2015, 23:59 IST
The Kavin Bharti Mittal-led homegrown chat application, Hike Messenger, on Thursday announced the acquisition of US-based free voice-calling company Zip Phone for an undisclosed amount. This would allow Hike users to make free phone calls.
The introduction of free voice calls using instant messaging by Hike comes at a time when operators are proposing to levy a separate fee for a such service.
The announcement comes within a few weeks after Sunil Mittal-led Bharti Airtel announced plans to introduce tariffs for voice over internet protocol (VoIP) such as Skype, WhatsApp and Viber but withdrew after the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India announced its decision to come out with a discussion paper on the issue soon.
"We've strongly believed that through communication, we can bring India online," Kavin Mittal said. "With this acquisition we take one more step towards that mission. Zip Phone's technology will allow us to bring free voice calling to the market much faster."
This is Hike first acquisition, which is aimed at expanding its product range in the internet-based communication space.
Launched in December 2012, Hike has over 35 million users and has raised $86 million from Tiger Global and BSB till date. Over 90% of Hike's users are under the age of 25 and residing in India.
Hike competes with other instant messaging applications such as Facebook-owned WhatsApp, China's Tencent-owned WeChat and Japan's Line. WhatsApp is the market leader with about 70 million active users.
Zip Phone, a one-man start-up founded by Anuj Jain in the US, is a voice-calling app that works globally. "I had been keeping a close eye on Hike and I am excited to now be a part of it," Jain said.

I am trying to determine the best way to create a networked audio distribution setup and will first provide some background information. I plan to run iTunes on a Windows Home Server for several reasons that are interrelated:
With the foregoing in mind, is there a way to have audio|acacia auto-update playlists without the necessity of restarting iTunes? This will not really be an option, since iTunes is supposed to run 24/7 on my WHS or possibly a Rasberry Pi if I can get over the Linux hurdle
END GOAL: I want to have song purchases made on, e.g., my iPhone automatically and seamlessly integrate with my media setup with no manual input. Can audio|acacia handle this?
In theory yes. I've personally never tested this, but it should work with audio|acacia out of the box. audio|acacia updates its iTunes playlists whenever iTunes itself makes a change to its own XML file. When a change in iTunes occurs, changes to the XML file typically occur right away. I've noticed that for basic things like song play counts and spelling changes to fields, iTunes sometimes waits to make changes to the XML (bulk processing perhaps?). However in the cases where new media is added, like via an automatic download, the update should occur right away. Keep in mind that audio|acacia is unable to play DRM protected songs so you'd need to make sure the downloads are of the newer "iTunes Plus" DRM-free variety (which has been default in iTunes for quite some time now).

"Our Hoagiefest campaign always celebrates the role hoagies play in summertime fun and the joy and excitement of the season."
Wawa Hoagiefest was introduced in the summer of 2008. It has since grown to become an annual seven-week celebration of Hoagies.
Pennsylvania-based Wawa operates more than 840 c-stores in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Florida and Washington, D.C.

When we moved into our current home, we inherited a yard that had been completely killed by roundup (they thought it was fertilizer) and landscaping that looked like it hadn't been tended to in years. Slowly, we have managed to bring the yard back to life and the landscaping has taken a step in the right direction with regular pruning and weeding.
We knew that the landscaping needed some attention, but we wanted to get the exterior of the actual house "buttoned up," as my husband likes to say, before we spent time and money on the landscaping. Since the exterior got attention last spring, this spring is for the landscaping. I have been compiling lots of inspiration photos so I know what direction I want to take it in, because this isn't something we want to have to redo any time soon. Our hope is to clean up the space, choose hardy plants that are also beautiful, and enjoy it for years to come.
I like to call my garden taste "English Garden." I love the sleek lines of boxwood hedges paired with the wildness of English roses. We will be planting some of both and I am very excited to see how it turns out as it matures. I will be sharing the process as we tackle it. For now, I hope you enjoyed the beautiful gardens I shared. I'd love to know what your garden style is. Leave it in the comments!

Helen Merrills vocal tone was always warm and husky. She developed from an apprehensive, untried singer, wanting to be accepted, into a calm and competent performer who could use her voice as an instrument of mood.
Dream of You (#1-12) was one of her best albums and an arranging triumph for Gil Evans, who did all the scoring and conducting. Evans, an extraordinarily sensitive and supple colorist, wrote with particular care for the contours (linear and emotional) of each song, as well as a measured understanding of Helens texture and phrasing.
The second album included here, Merrill At Midnight (#13-22), was recorded six months after the first one, and was another smash hit for Helen. This time the backgrounds were tailored to her own approach by Harold Hal Mooney. For this collection, she harvested some of the better bits of romantic poetry that existed in wisps among the voluminous Tin Pan Alley melodies.

Singapore is often called as the Shopper's paradise and very aptly so. What makes this title so apt for Singapore is the number of malls you find here. Singapore is blessed with an abundance of malls which will leave you spoilt for choice. Each mall trying to outdo the other with the wares they sell, it's the customers who end up benefiting. So all that stands between you and the sprawling malls is a Singapore visa. Once you get that, you'll be on your way to plunder their wealth. Here's top 5 malls you just cannot miss.
Located on Orchard road, this one entices all the luxury shoppers with its dazzling display. A glass complex, you can find all high end luxury items in here. Luxury couture, high fashion brands all find a home at Ion Orchard. Accessories, shoes, clothes, bags, and even food, this mall truly has it all. But if you're on a budgeted vacation you might want to wait till sale season to hit this mall.
The biggest shopping mall of Singapore, it is situated on Harbour Front. Being the biggest mall has its advantages since it can hold anything and everything in it. And vivo city does just that. From toy stores, Singapore's largest cinema, wade pool, amphitheaters and four food courts, vivo city has it all and then some more. So how can you not visit this mall when in Singapore?
Suntec city mall is the sprawling shopping centre located in the marina centre. At one time, it used to be Singapore's largest shopping mall until vivo city came along. This mall is divided into four zones, the galleria which showcases high end international labels, the tropics which focuses on lifestyle merchandise and services, the entertainment centre which as the name suggests is for entertainment and houses the 5 - theatre cineplex and last but not the least the fountain terrace which specializes in food and beverages.
Are you someone who can't resist the call of brands? Are you someone who shops only for branded clothes and products, then Paragon is the answer to your prayers. Gucci, Alfred Dunhill, Escada are the names of just some of the brands you'll find at Paragon. This up scale shopping centre is located at, (none other than) Orchard road.
Founded by an Indian business man in 1971, this shopping mall is located close to Little India. So if you do visit Mustafa, which you must, you'll be tackling two birds with one stone, the mall as well as Little India. Mustafa is famous for its electronic items and household appliances. So if a new phone, DVD player, camera, camcorder etc is what you're looking for, then Mustafa is where you'll find it. Good quality and affordable pricing is their mantra.

Barefoot! Meringue Chantilly- Sort of
Was it just me and my crazy Sunday that had problems with these meringues? I've made meringues before… several times but I've never quite experienced the problems I had with these. I'm sure the other Barefooters faired well.
The first batch I made (yes, you read that correctly… the first batch) somehow glued themselves to my cookie sheets! I had to use a paint scraper to get the glue cookies off of the cookie sheets (paper and all). After I scraped the cookies off, I had to soak the cookie sheets for 2 hours then scrub them again with the paint scraper. Finally. I had victory and started over on Tuesday night.
I could blame Sunday night's fiasco on several things. I could blame it on the fact that The Husband walked through the kitchen and saw the eggs on the counter and very thoughtfully put them back in the refrigerator.
I could blame it on one of the neighbors stopping by to gossip about other neighbors (which still makes me shake my head in shame), interupting the process of whipping the whites.
I could also blame it on the cops blocking my driveway so The Husband couldn't get back in the house because of an incident next door… forcing me to have to stop everything again and go outside to gawk at the spectecal myself. (All I can say is, God help me when I have teenagers!)
I could blame it on my poor Kitchen Aid getting tired after 23 minutes on high speed without success.
I could also blame it on the fact that this recipe just seemd off from the beginning and I should have known better.
I accept the fact that sometimes things just don't work out. This was one of those times. It worked out in the end. Sunday is one of the days I don't have martial arts. I needed to do something physical, like scraping cookie sheets.
Of course, I had to do something to mess with the recipe. Berries were $5 for 1/2 pint this weekend. I decided to go with a fig and honey layer for my square cookies and a chocolate layer for the round ones. Check out the recipe for Ina Garten's Meringue Chantilly, but make sure you use 3/4 t cream of tartar and only bake them for an hour at 200 degrees… not 2 hours.
Fig & Honey
1/2 package dried figs
1/2 c rum
1/2 c honey
1 vanilla bean, seeded
In a small saucepan, combine the reconsituted figs (discard leftover rum), honey and vanilla bean. Bring to a gentle boil over medium low heat. Garnish a meringue with the figs and enjoy.

Don't feel bad, sometimes meringue will not co-operate. My mother once had three collapsed pavlovas before a dinner party, so she sandwiched them together with cream and made a torte. Incidentally, older eggs are better for meringue than very fresh ones – maybe that was your problem?
February 26, 2009 22:16
Congratulations to you for even doing this! I didn't even get that far!
I may try tomorrow, but with the prices of things lately I think I'll stick to frozen berries.
We should do a culinary playdate soon!

Dang! That makes me want to cook!
I am seriously obsessed with Ina Garten. I love her, and I wish she would move in and cook for me. Since that wont happen anytime soon (or ever) I've resigned myself to buying her books and obsessing over the show. 🙂
Love this post!
February 27, 2009 21:16
ooo fig and honey…interesting. Not usually being the biggest meringue fan I really thought that the stewed fruit made the recipe because it softened the meringue making it easier to eat…but I would like to try the honey/fig thing. Oh and I have teenagers and honestly somedays it's just not pretty.
February 28, 2009 08:55
I'm so sorry these didn't turn out for you. Meringues are very fickle creatures. A few things that can also cause issues: humidity, eggs not being room temp, any hint of leftover oil etc in your bowl that would prevent the eggs from whipping. I'm glad you tried them.
March 1, 2009 00:19
It took me two tries too–although no pan scraping. The fig and honey and chocolate both sound good!
Kristin permalinkMarch 2, 2009 04:54
Your love for and your creativity in food is so amazing Cat… Definitely something to be considering (as you mentioned in the last post)…. My friend Cheryl would've hired you. 🙂

We are living with uncertainty beyond anything we have experienced in our lifetime thus far…a global pandemic is a very scary time. As a psychologist I'm used to helping my clients work through their anxiety and some principles from anxiety management can help you during this crisis.
I'm guessing you don't need more toilet paper to hoard, but you could probably use some better resiliency skills! Here are 10 steps to build up your emotional strength and coping during this crisis.
- Accept that our lives are going to be uncertain and changing rapidly for the near future. Humans don't like change—we do better when we have predictability and stability. Embracing the unknown and creating a new normal is going to be our reality for the next few weeks or months ahead. Dealing with chronic change can bring up emotions such as fear, anxiety, helplessness, disappointment, and sadness. Acknowledge these feelings then turn towards acceptance of what is happening in the present moment. Create some simple routines and structure even if that means doing so day-to-day.
- No one knows what we are doing right now. We are all winging it! We are all struggling with varying degrees of anxiety and fear, and hopefully doing the best we can under the circumstances.
- Have compassion towards yourself and others given that we are all navigating this new territory. We may be feeling irritable, angry, and distracted—these are classic signs of increased stress level. Show some grace towards others and yourself knowing we are all figuring this out.
- Social distancing doesn't mean social disconnection…humans have a strong need to be connected to each other. Having strong connections with others has significant positive mental and physical health benefits. During these times, we need our circle of friends, family, colleagues, acquaintances, more than ever. Some of our main centers for community are closed right now—schools, universities, workplaces, places of worship, gyms. This is another disruption in our daily routines, but luckily, we can stay connected to others through FaceTime, texting, phone calls, Facebook messenger, Snapchat, etc….we may need to work harder to stay connected but it is very much work that is well-rewarded by the comfort, familiarity, and support we can receive.
- Practice detachment from news and information. Our brains crave information, especially in times of uncertainty. We feel like if we have more information, we have a better sense of control. However, there is so much information out there. Some of it is false, some of it is hysteria-inducing. Focus on reputable sources for this information—Center for Disease Control (CDC) and World Health Organization (WHO) are known for providing solid information to the general public.
- Focus on the basics…are you getting enough sleep? Is it possible that you might be dehydrated or need to eat? Have you taken a shower or brushed your teeth for the day? Simple daily tasks can serve as healthy distraction and make us feel more in control and settled.
- Look at the good that is happening right now. Medical professionals are readied and prepared for dealing with the crisis cases they are now handling. Communities are coming together to offer support, sharing of resources and goods, and looking out to take care of their most vulnerable members. Scientists are rising to the challenge to create more effective test kits and treatments for COVID-19 including researching for a vaccine. We can give back to others too, which can help others as well as build our own sense of security. This can be as simple as checking in with a neighbor, letting friends know you are thinking about them, or finding some way to help in your community.
- Create something…write, paint, craft, sew, puzzle, draw, sing, cook. Being creative is a healthy distraction because it can help us engage and is inherently a mindful activity, creating something forces us to be in the present moment.
- Get stuff done….even during a crisis the everyday tasks of preparing food, taking care of children, doing laundry and other household chores needs to happen. What is the next small thing that you can do in your day?
- Spend some time in nature…we need fresh air and walking with a family member or dog is good for everyone to get some exercise. Research heavily supports the calming impact of being in nature, especially if we are surrounded by trees. This can be difficult to do depending on climate but even a short walk outside can be therapeutic.

The long rumored new smartwatch form Apple, the Apple Watch 2, may finally see the light of day as it may be launched alongside all other new Apple devices and software products in the upcoming World Wide Developers Conference on June 10, in San Francisco, California. However, there are also reports suggesting another possible release date for the new Apple smartwatch. The point to a launch alongside the long rumored iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus sometime in September.
The Apple Watch 2 has long been rumored to be up for release. In March, it was expected that the new version of the smartwatch will be launched, but the event ended up revealing the iPhone SE and the iPad Pro 9.7.
In a previous interview with CNBC, Apple CEO Tim Cook admitted that there might be shortcomings that had to be made up for by the company regarding the release of the Apple Watch, as he admitted that they learned from a year ago.
"We're still in learning mode," Cook said. "We're learning fairly quickly, though. We know a lot more than we did a year ago."
While he did not reveal anything specific about the long rumored new iteration of the Apple Watch, the company executive promised that there will be improvements for it. "You'll see the Apple Watch getting better and better," he promised.
The "improvements" might either be a software update to the current one or a possible sequel to the old one. Cook's follow-up statement gave a clearer hint that it may be an entirely new device, as he teased that there will be a day that users will see the Apple Watch as a necessity in their lives.
"I think that in a few years we will look back and people will say, 'How could I have ever thought about not wearing this watch?'" he said.

Eid-al-Fitr Mubarak!
26 Jun 2017 11:37
The Institute for Iran-Eurasia Studies (IRAS) would like to send warmest wishes to Muslims around the world, celebrating Eid.
This past month, many in the world endured challenges and senseless violence that broke the hearts and tried the souls. Our prayers are with the hundreds of innocent lives, many of them Muslim, taken during the month of Ramadan in places like Tehran, Baghdad, Kabul and elsewhere.
Also, at this time we must keep in our thoughts for those who are unable to celebrate or be with their loved ones. Across the world are people enduring unimaginable suffering and the nations including Iran, Russia, Central Asian and Caucasian states, have to continue to work tirelessly for a swift peaceful resolution.
So as families and friends come together this Eid to share food and presents, to think of others, to mark the end of Ramadan, let's think about the better region and world, the nations must build together.
Once again, we wish you all a peaceful Eid Mubarak!

Filmmaker Ardeshir Irani was Born On This Day
Filmmaker Ardeshir Irani was #BornOnThisDay. Best known for making India's first talkie Alam Ara (1931), Irani is credited with a substantial number of film productions, both silent and sound films in various languages. Founder of Imperial Films, he also bought rights to Cine colour process, set up a colour laboratory and produced India's first indigenously processed colour film, Kisan Kanya (1937).
Khan Bahadur Ardeshir Irani (5 December 1886 – 14 October 1969); popularly known as Ardeshir Irani, was a writer, director, producer, actor, film distributor, film showman and cinematographer in the silent and sound eras of early Indian cinema. He was renowned for making films in Hindi, Telugu, English, German, Indonesian, Persian, Urdu and Tamil. He was a successful entrepreneur who owned film theatres, a gramophone agency, and a car agency.
Life and career
Ardeshir Irani was born into a Zoroastrian family on 5 December 1886 in Poona, Bombay Presidency. His parents had migrated from the city of Ardabil in Iran in 1879, through the land route via Baluchistan and Sindh. In 1905, Irani became the Indian representative of Universal Studios and he ran Alexander Cinema in Bombay with Abdulally Esoofally for over forty years. It was at Alexander Cinema that Ardeshir Irani learnt the rules of the art of filmmaking and became fascinated by the medium. In 1917, Irani entered the field of film production and produced his first silent feature film, Nala Dayamanti, which released in 1920.
In 1922, Irani joined Bhogilal Dave, the former manager of Dadasaheb Phalke's Hindustan Films, and established Star Films. Their first silent feature film, Veer Abhimanyu was released in 1922 and starred Fatima Begum in the female lead. Dave, a graduate of the New York School of Photography, shot the films while Irani directed and produced them. Star Films produced seventeen films before Irani and Dave dissolved the partnership.
In 1924, Irani founded Majestic Films, joined by two talented youngsters, B.P. Mishra and Naval Gandhi. At this establishment, Irani produced the films and either Mishra or Gandhi directed the films. Despite its success, fifteen films later, Majestic Films closed, giving way to the equally short-lived Royal Art Studios which had exactly the same life-span as the earlier two, however, it became famous for a certain type of romantic films. Irani improved on it, using new talent to great effect.
In 1925, Irani founded Imperial Films, where he made sixty-two films. By the age of forty, Irani was an established filmmaker of Indian cinema. Ardeshir Irani became the father of talkie films with the release of his sound feature film, Alam Ara on 14 March 1931. Many of the films he produced were later made into talkie films with the same cast and crew. He is also accredited with making the first Indian English feature film, Noor Jahan (1931). He completed his hat-trick of earning fame when he made the first colour feature film of India, Kisan Kanya (1937). His contribution does not end only with giving voice to the silent cinema and colour to black-and-white films. He gave a new courageous outlook to filmmaking in India and provided such a wide range of choice for stories in films that till date, there are films being made which have a theme relating to one of the one hundred fifty-eight films made by Irani.
In 1933, Irani produced and directed the first Persian talkie, Dokhtar-e-Lor. The script was written by Abdolhossein Sepanta who also acted in the film along with members of the local Parsi community.[2][3]
Irani's Imperial Films introduced a number of new actors to Indian Cinema, including Prithviraj Kapoor and Mehboob Khan. He also interfered with the medium. He produced Kalidas in Tamil on the sets of Alam Ara, with songs in Telugu. Also, Irani visited London, England for fifteen days to study sound recording and recorded the sounds of Alam Ara on the basis of this knowledge. In the process, he created a whole new trend unknowingly. In those days, outdoor shootings were shot in sunlight with the help of reflectors. However, the outdoor undesirable sounds were disturbing him so greatly that he shot the entire sequence in the studio under heavy lights. Thus, he began the trend of shooting under artificial light.
Irani made one hundred fifty-eight films in a long and illustrious career of twenty-five years, between the First and Second World Wars. He made his last film, Pujari, in 1945. Irani was not compelled to live like Dadasaheb Phalke for he realised that the war was a time not suitable for film business and therefore he suspended his film business during that time. He died on 14 October 1969 at the age of eighty-two, in Mumbai, Maharashtra.

Ajax will meet Rapid Wien in the UEFA Champions League third round qualifying match. Frank de Boer's selection will report on either Tuesday, July 28, or Wednesday, July 29, in the Ernst Happelstadion in Vienna. De Boer is satisfied with the draw. "It could have been worse."
It will be the first time that Ajax plays against the Austrian club. Ajax will first play in Vienna. One week later, the return match will be held in the Amsterdam ArenA.
"I was a bit nervous", says De Boer. "We were in the last phase of the draw. It was either going to be Fenerbahçe or Rapid Wien. I'm not complaining."
Rapid Wien ended in second place last season, six points behind Salzburg. De Boer: "We need to wait and see what their level is. I haven't watched any footage yet, but in theory we are the favourite."
De Boer cherishes his memories of the Erns Happelstadion in Vienna, where he won the 1995 Champions League final with Ajax. "When I return there, I'm sure the memories will come rushing back. It was the greatest moment of my career."

Activision Confirms Sequels to Popular Franchises
Activision Confirms Sequels to Popular Franchises
Activision has confirmed what we already knew: More new sequels to some of its most popular franchises can be expected in 2008.
Following yesterday's announcement of record-setting financial results, Activision said it would be releasing three new entries in the Guitar Hero franchise in 2008, with two scheduled to ship in the publisher's first quarter (beginning April 1) and the third due before the end of the year. A report on GamesIndustry said the company would be "pushing the franchise harder in Europe" as well, following Guitar Hero 3 supply problems for the region. "We are making progress [in Europe] on the inventory front, on getting local content," Activision CEO Robert Kotick said. "We are definitely a year behind in Europe versus what we did in North America."
A new Call of Duty title is also on the way this fiscal, and following the phenomenal success of the recent Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, which was the best-selling game worldwide in 2007 with over seven million units sold, Activision said it will expand the game's release to include the Wii and PlayStation 2, along with the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC. Whether the new game will remain in the present-day setting of Call of Duty 4 or revert to the World War 2 era has not been revealed.
Strong competition from EA's Skate release will lead to a major overhaul for the Tony Hawk brand, with innovation promised in the wake of consumer research, while the company takes advantage of its Marvel licenses with new Spider-Man and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance releases. Movie-based games for fiscal 2009 will include tie-ins to the new Jack Black film Kung-Fu Panda and the sequel to Madagascar.
EA Syndrome anyone?
Sounds like... what's this about +3 Guitar Hero games this year? Surely, they're all just going to be spinoffs and not worth anyone's time, right? There's no way we're going to get GH4 this year, let alone 5 and 6.
Tony Hawks is still going?? Bejaysus
Now we just wait for Activision to start calling itself Electronic Activision and the transferal of policy will be complete. I mean, Christ, you don't have to immediately capitalize on success, sometimes gamers like to be able to digest a game before you ram the latest in its line down their collective throats. This really feels like the games industry is getting a going over with the Hollywood treatment, something that's going to fuck the industry over in the long run. Taking your time with a game and making it, oh, I don't know, actually fucking good, is something that will undoubtedly make you more money in the long run than putting out an unintuitive hunk of shit every six months. But of course, with EA being such a leader in the games industry, developers are going to be loathe to break away from their shining example and do something themselves. Say hello to your future.
This piece of news is genuinely exciting!
Don't get too jumpy, both GH2 and GH3 hit for the platforms in the same year. Casual Games spawn like rabbits.
Also, didn't GH and GH2 come out a year apart?
I dunno when the original GH came out, alls I know is we got a minimum of two this year. Which is never a good sign.

Texas-born artist Jonathon Kimbrell was raised in West Texas surrounded by dirt, oil fields and incredible roots music. Upon graduating from McMurry University in 2004 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Studio Art, he relocated to North Texas and established himself as a full-time working fine artist and graphic designer.
Since childhood, Kimbrell has been immensely influenced by 20th Century artists Andy Warhol, Robert Rauschenberg, Roy Lichtenstein, Ed Ruscha, Helen Frankenthaler, Franz Kline, and Tom Wesselman. Additionally, Kimbrell is inspired by music, film, comic books, advertising, mid-century graphic and poster design, automobiles, obsolete printing processes, and packaging design. In various form and fashion, these elements find their way into Kimbrell's extensive body of personal and commercial work.
In the dozen+ years Kimbrell has been working as a professional artist, his work spans the globe in art galleries as well as corporate and private art collections in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.
Kimbrell's passion for vinyl records and preservation led him to form an independent record label, SeriTone Records (formerly Classic Waxxx Records,) specializing in limited edition vinyl releases of historically significant recordings, as well as exploring the kitschy side of his design and printmaking sensibilities through SeriTone Press (formerly Napkin Art Studio.)
Lately, Kimbrell has been combining his penchant for commercial-inspired design with his interest in collage, creating new avenues for himself in which to explore the fine art aesthetic, while in turn, inspiring even more art and design possibilities.
Kimbrell currently occupies time and space in Dallas, Texas and is working on an MFA in Visual Communication at Texas A&M University-Commerce, slated to graduate Summer 2021.

(BBC) – American Noah Lyles ran the fastest 100m of the year to win the US national title in Des Moines, Iowa.
The 20-year-old clocked 9.88 seconds, ahead of Ronnie Baker and Kendal Williams.
In the semi-finals, Lyles had equalled Mike Rodgers' world-leading time of the year of 9.89, set in Thursday's heats.
Baker's 9.90 in the final was the third-quickest time of 2018, while Britain's Zharnel Hughes, 22, last week ran 9.91.
Hughes' time was the quickest of the year until the USA Track & Field outdoor championships.
World indoor record holder Christian Coleman and 100m world champion Justin Gatlin are both missing from the event.
Lyles said: "It proved I am out here with the big dogs and I am trying to be just as great as them."
Lyles, better known as a 200m specialist, holds the joint-quickest time of the year in that event, running 19.69 last month.
"Don't get me wrong. I love the 200. I love it," he said. "But I also like a few 100s in the mix."
Olympic 100m champion Elaine Thompson put an injury-hit start to the season behind her to win the Jamaican championships title.
The 25-year-old beat three-time world champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce into second place, while Olympic 400m bronze medallist Shericka Jackson finished third.

This program is hands on and experiential in nature, focusing on permaculture practices on the land at Wildroot Botanicals, growing medical plants, and processing the herbs we grow into medicine throughout the growing season.
Three different instructors will be leading: Permaculturists, Heather Tizai and Reisha Beck will each teach one Monday per month. On the remaining Mondays, Leslie Lekos will lead in the medicine making components of the course.
Permaculture Description
Participants will learn about how to prepare garden beds and cultivate healthy, organic soils through permaculture and biodynamic techniques. Appropriate tillage and proper use of tools will be explored. We will learn how to increase soil productivity by making and using nutrient dense compost, applying soil amendments when necessary, and spreading biodynamic preparations. Mulching techniques and cover cropping will be implemented to reduce weed competition, retain soil moisture, and to quickly transform new growing areas into fertile ground. Participants will also learn how to use effective companion planting, perennial food systems, and pollinator plantings to create restorative, ecologically diverse landscapes that produce high yields of food and medicine crops.

1. You sleep in more.
I know this is counterintuitive, but when you're in your early 20s, you're so worried SOMEONE SOMEWHERE is having brunch without you that you basically stay up all night so you won't miss a Facebook alert. When you hit your late 20s, you're all "fuck that noise" and hit snooze 50 times and just eat brunch at 4pm in bed like God intended.
2. You're no longer on your parents' health insurance.
Or cell phone plan. These are the two worst things about being a Real Adult.
3. You can rent a car!
ROAD TRIPS GALORE. Here I come, Tagaytay. In your face, La Union. 'Til next time, Baler.
4. You go to brunch less.
Brunch kinda dies at 26 when you realize waking up to eat overpriced breakfast is just not where it's at.
5. You know the things you really want out of life.
Marriage? Kids? A mortgage? You might not have them yet, but you know whether or not you want them, period.
6. You live alone or with your significant other.
And not 50 million roomies who use your Nutella for GOD KNOWS WHAT when you're not home. And even if you're not alone or with your S.O., you're making some strides towards that lifestyle. (Although, let's be real, you'll probably never have more fun than when you lived with that one awesome soulmate BFF roommate.)
7. You have a pet.
And you love that pet so much that you'd rather skip da club to brush her hair and watch reruns of The Vampire Diaries together. #NoShame #Blessed #Cats
8. You're on a career path.
You've finally decided that you're definitely not maybe going to vet school (or you are in vet school), and you no longer vacillate between being a bartender and being a lawyer. You chose your path and you're gonna stay the road and sling those shots. At least until your mid-30s when all bets are off and you decide to go back to vet school.
9. You eat some real food sometimes.
Pizza for every meal is no longer the norm, and you know how to properly cook an egg. Multiple ways. You're one fancy old bitch.
10. You do your own laundry.
No longer running to mom's or asking yaya to pick up your clothes because that shit was making you tired. You now wash your clothes yourself, and you kinda love it. Nothing beats zenning out while you fold fitted sheets. WHICH YOU TOTALLY KNOW HOW TO DO. #baller
11. You pay for music and videos because downloading is too much of a hassle.
You might miss Pirate Bay and its porn ads, but you know it's time to pay for your own shit like a grown woman.
12. You fully "get" Oprah.
I mean, you've always loved her, but now you get her.
13. You take the bus as little as possible.
Uber costs P90, an additional P12.10 per kilometer, and P2 per minute? I'd rather not eat.
14. You're less experimental with your look.
You no longer cut your hair off on a whim because you know you could be dead before that shit grows back. And who has time for magenta hair? Only Katy Perry's got time for that, and that's because she has 52 personal assistants and 283 wigs.
15. You can no longer stay up past 4a.m. to save your life.
Like, your life might LITERALLY depend on it, and it's not happening. Goodbye, cruel world.
16. You know Saturday night is TV night.
There is no greater happiness than falling asleep on your boyfriend's shoulder while watching The Game Of Thrones together. Bonus points if there's a container of takout food on your lap and drool on his t-shirt.
17. You're more comfortable with not knowing what the eff is going on.
You thought you'd have it all figured out before 30. Now you know you won't, and that's just fine.
18. You sometimes pay when you go out with your parents.
Maybe it's every fifth time, but still. You now realize that that woman pushed you out of her vagina (!!!), and, dammit, she deserves some free meals every now and then. Plus, nothing matches how impressed your dad is with you when you pick up the tab. It's like you won a Nobel Peace Prize and a Pulitzer while giving birth to the next President on the same day you cured cancer. Go you.
