.NET StockTrader Sample Application announcements
The new 6.0 version, which can live side-by-side with the 5.5 version, is now live. Visit http://msdn.microsoft.com/stocktrader to download the source code with automated setup wizard.
You can read the technical whitepaper about it, including the mobile client architecture, and support for SQL Database Federation here.
You can view the application running live on Windows Azure (new HTML 5/MVC client) at https://azurestocktrader6.cloudapp.net; or the classic ASP.NET Web Forms client at https://azurestocktrader6classic.cloudapp.net.
The download also includes Configuration Service 6.0, which adds support for Azure Service Bus. You can access ConfigWeb 6.0 to explore the live deployment at https://azureconfigweb6.cloudapp.net.
The updated StockTrader 5.5 sample is now available for download and setup. This replaces the 5.0 release of StockTrader. The installer can be downloaded from https://azurestocktrader.cloudapp.net or http://msdn.microsoft.com/stocktrader.
This new download includes the new Configuration Service 5.5 assemblies and ConfigWeb 5.5. Configuration Service 5.5 is backward compatible with 5.0 configuration repositories. You will want to rebuild solutions implementing Configuration Service 5.0 with the new 5.5 shared libraries.
StockTrader 5.5 What's New
The big change is support for Windows Azure SQL Database Federations. Federations allows horizontal partitioning, also called sharding, of the Azure SQL Database data tier. You will note that we have also split the previously single database into two separate physical databases: a QuoteDB and an AccountDB. By default after install, neither will be federated. You can use the new \stocktrader\builds\SQL_Loader\TradeSQLLoader.exe to create new QuoteDB/AccountDB databases, and choose the number of federation members when creating the initial databases. You can then deploy (to Azure) and then use the \stocktrader\databaseloaders\TradeSQLAzureLoader application to load data into the federated databases.
The single DAL layer works now against on-premises SQL Server (including SQL Server running in an Azure Virtual Machine); non-federated Windows Azure SQL Database, and federated Azure SQL Databases.
Configuration Service 5.5 What's New
Configuration Service 5.5 has various bug fixes, and especially enhancements to the SQL retry logic in the SQLHelper Class. Solutions using Configuration Service 5.0 should be upgraded to the new 5.5 assemblies, as well minor updates have been made to ConfigWeb.
Coming Soon: StockTrader 6.0
Within the next few weeks, a new version of StockTrader will also be available: StockTrader 6.0. StockTrader 6.0 does not replace StockTrader 5.5; but rather is a new Azure-only implementation, and it is not backward compatible with 5.5. You will be able to do side-by-side installs. Both will remain on the MSDN site. The coming Config Service 6.0 version adds support for Windows Azure Service Bus bindings, and StockTrader 6.0 can optionally be configured to use Service Bus and reliable messaging for order processing. In addition, RESTFUL web services are used in the new Business Logic layer, and the service can serve as the cloud-based backend for new StockTrader 6.0 clients that will be included in the download: Windows 8 Modern UI client; HTML5 ASP.NET/MVC client, Windows Phone client, Android client, and IPhone client.
If you have setup issues, or questions about the sample once it is installed this is the place to post them. Thank you!

7 Tasting Notes
Aromatic. Fragrant and mild subtle floral tones that linger quite nicely. A calming tea.
This has a deeper flavour than the usual matcha I have so I tend to use less. Really nice and velvety when made into a latte. I'd recommend people to try the non-organic offering first before investing on the organic.
Accented aroma that is not as mild as the taste. I'd prefer this as an iced summer drink. Just a personal preference. As a warm beverage, usually add a sweetener along with coconut or almond milk.
Really mild, light, subtle yet pleasant. Really nice to have after or during a meal.
Simply delicious. These are one of those teas that I could have during winter or summer. No caffeine on this I hear but no matter, the aroma alone perks my senses up.
Just the aroma of this blend is spectacular! Even more so when its all ready to drink.. Can't get enough of this. This blend is the favourite at work, could have it all day long and not get tired of the flavour. Really fragrant, really delicious.

The sounds, smell and taste of Malaysia street food came to Trafalgar Square last night. Malaysia Kitchen, which represents the 50 or more Malaysian restaurants in the UK organised the event. Around 30 food stalls served food to thousands of visitors. Dancers and singers entertained the audience. Trafalgar Square is a great venue to experience these cultural events.

Photos: Celebrity sex scandals
John Travolta is being sued by a masseur who claims the star sexually assaulted him. Travolta denies the claim.
Paulina Gretzky continues to set the Internet aflame with her sexy posted photos.
The latest celebrity to be involved in a sex tape scandal is Hulk Hogan.
Ashton Kutcher was caught in a sex scandal in November 2011 after rumors of adultery began to swirl. He and then-wife Demi Moore called it quits.
AnnaLynne McCord accidentally sent a topless Twitpic to a fan on Jan. 9, 2012. She then recropped it and send a SFW version.
Wholesome 'High School Musical' star Vanessa Hudgens is probably wishing she'd held onto a batch of nude photos that first surfaced in Sept 2007. Another leak from the same batch surfaced in August 2009, and the actress was again hit by another leak (featuring the most graphic shots to date) in March 2011, one week before her movie Sucker Punch opened.
Olivia Munn's rep denied reports that her phone was hacked on March 4, 2012. TMZ reports several of the racy shots floating around the web, including Munn posing in a black bra, bikini and a v-neck, are legit and have been previously posted on her blog or Twitter, but the faceless full-frontals are a body double. Olivia Munn addressed the situation by tweeting, "If you ever hacked my phone, these are the pictures you'd find" and linking to some cute baby and cat photos."
Mad Men star Christina Hendricks' phone was hacked on March 3, 2012 -- though not all the photos that surfaced were legit. "The topless image is fake and not an image of Christina," Hendricks' rep told E! News, though he did admit that the rest of the photos, which feature the actress' face rather, are real.
Gossip Girl's Blake Lively has done a fantastic job of managing her public image, which was why it was so shocking when photos were released on the Internet on May 31, 2011, appearing to show a naked Lively posing in the mirror. However, Lively's reputation remains intact - although the naked lady in the photos are real, the woman is not Lively. Said the actress' rep in a statement: "The photos of Blake Lively which have just surfaced on various websites including Perez Hilton and Zap2it.com are 100 percent FAKE. Blake has never taken nude photos of herself." Still, there's
quite the resemblance
A cell phone photo of a very nude Chris Brown leaked on the web in March 2011. Brown explained the photo on KPWR's "Big Boy's Neighborhood" morning show, saying "It was an out the shower shot. It was like 'hey what's up?'" and added that the picture was "definitely sent to a girl."
Tori Spelling's boobs accidently ended up on the web in Nov 2011 when husband Dean McDermott Tweeted what, at first blush, appeared to be an innocent photo of the couple's son, Liam.
On Sept. 14, 2011, several nude photos that appear to be of Scarlett Johansson surfaced online. Read more
A sex tape reportedly featuring Usher and his ex-wife Tameka Foster was reportedly being shopped around in March 2011. TMZ reports the tape was stolen from the singer's car during a December 2009 break-in.
Paris Hilton's ex-BFF, Kim Kardashian, is another pseudo-celebrity who went from a nobody to a sexy somebody super fast when her sex tape was "mysteriously" leaked to the public.
We thought we had seen all (and we mean all) of Kendra Wilkinson after the former Girls Next Door reality star's sex tape was "leaked" to XXX company Vivid Entertainment -- but in Jan 2010, just months after the release of her first video, more footage surfaced featuring some girl-on-girl action.
Paris Hilton wasn't the first celebrity to be mortified by a leaked sex tape (Pamela Anderson beat her to it in 1998), but the under-three-minute clip that leaked online in 2003 featuring the then-19-year-old heiress and Rick Solomon frolicking in all their night vision glory was a pop culture game changer. Not only did nearly everyone with access to an Internet connection get a peek at the naughty clip (which was later released commercially under the surprisingly clever title 1 Night in Paris), it propelled a little-known heiress to worldwide stardom overnight. Suddenly, it was like the kinky floodgates opened and nude tapes and photos of famous folk (including Colin Farrell, Fred Durst, Vanessa Hudgens, Marcia Cross and Miley Cyrus) came pouring out of the woodwork. Also, Hilton's leak suspiciously coincided with the launch of her reality show, The Simple Life, and ushered in a new era of stars who became famous for no reason other than starring in a "leaked" sex tape (see: Kim Kardashian, Nicole Narain). Who needs to rely on talent when you've got homemade porn?
Rumours of a sex tape featuring Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester hit the web in June 2009. The tape allegedly contains footage of the actress doing some kinky stuff with her feet. She claims the tape doesn't exist.
In Dec 2010, hip hop star Nicki Minaj was rumoured to have a sex tape floating around.
Colin Farrell was none-too-happy when a tape featuring him and his ex-girlfriend, Playboy model Nicole Narain, surfaced in 2005. He went to court to stop distribution of the DVD.
In October 2006, Marcia Cross fought to recover nude photos of her that were accidentally thrown out in the trash and discovered by the owner of her garbage collection company.
Dustin Diamond (aka Screech from Saved by the Bell) freaked us out when a 40-minute video that features him getting it on with two women surfaced.
Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst claims the three-minute video of him having sex with an anonymous groupie that was leaked to the Net was stolen from his laptop.
A tape featuring Grey's Anatomy star Eric Dane (C) and his wife Rebecca Gayheart hanging around naked with former Miss Teen USA Kari Ann Peniche hit the web in August 2009. Said Dane's lawyer: "Although the participants are nude, the tape is not a 'sex tape.'
The Hills exes Lauren Conrad and Jason Wahler fought rumours of the existence of a sex tape. They claim the rumours were started by Hills villian Spencer Pratt.
You forgot about this one, didn't ya? In a short, 30-second clip leaked to the Internet, bad-girl rapper Eve is shown getting it on with a sex toy and her then-boyfriend, Stevie J.
Probably the most famous stolen celeb porn video of all time, a steamy and very dirty sex-capade was shot by the Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee on their honeymoon in 1995. It wasn't long before it made it onto the Internet (and into millions of men's fantasies).
You'd think she would have learned. After breaking up with Tommy, Pam went on to make another explicit home video, this time with Poison singer Bret Michaels. The video was also leaked onto the Net but it didn't make as much of a splash, mainly because Michaels failed to, ahem, measure up to Lee.

What to name a Female German Character's Husbands?
Hello! AJ again, with yet another dilema! Argh! Ha ha, okay now to be serious. First, I would like to say thank you for the help you all gave me whilst naming my leading lady... after much consideration, I have decided on the name Rosemary Elouise- nickname Romy! Thank you all for the help again! I took your interest to heart, I really did.
Now to the heart of the matter. Rosemary has three brothers. I'm pretty sure I've decided on the names of them, and the names of her parents. It's now the names of her husbands that concern me.
These are my options for her BROTHERS:
1) Rupert Melchior- Very German, and the eldest brother.
2) Roy Harrison- the middle brother, and Rosemary's favorite
3) Henry Thomas- the youngest brother, only four years older then her.
And here are the options for her three husbands:
1) David Lee- the first, and the most innocent of her marriages.
2)Clifford Jonah- the second, adn the most ridiculous
3) Jonathan Hemingway- the long lasting marriage that ended in infidelity and a sad goodbye.
Please feel free to share your opinions, and share your own name options! Thanks again!

After an 85-minute rain delay, it was announced that the last train would be leaving the Navy Yard station at 11:20 p.m.
What is going to happen in October, when presumably the Nationals are in the playoffs, and games start later for a national television audience? The average playing time for a playoff game is in excess of 31 / 2 hours.
Is Metro going to announce in the sixth inning that the last train is leaving the Navy Yard station, forcing an exodus of 40,000-plus fans? What if the Nationals make it to the World Series? What do the Nationals and Metro plan to do to accommodate the paying public?
Steve Lewis, Potomac
DG: It's a little early, but should the lucky day come when we have a home team in the playoffs and perhaps the World Series — with home-field advantage thanks to the National League's All-Star Game victory — I hope the Nationals will pay for keeping Metro open late.
Metro does not cover the overtime cost when big events go late, nor should it. The cost per hour is about $29,500. When an agreement is in place, the transit authority will subtract the passenger revenue from the OT bill, and the event sponsor will cover the rest.
As Dan Steinberg pointed out on the D.C. Sports Bog, baseball games rarely go past Metro's closing time during the regular season, and the Nationals don't have a standing agreement with Metro to stay open late.
Start times are different for many playoff games and for the World Series, so unless we're talking about a Friday or Saturday night game, when Metro is open late anyway, the closing time would become an issue. (I hope I'm not jinxing this possibility.)
Sunday through Thursday, the last Green Line train through Navy Yard in the direction of Branch Avenue is scheduled for 12:17 a.m. The last one in the direction of Greenbelt is scheduled for 11:39 p.m. The last one before that is scheduled for 11:20 p.m. and would be a safer bet for making connections.
By the way, it would have been a remarkable thing if "40,000-plus" fans headed for Metro after a late-night game. Steinberg pointed out that when the Nationals did sponsor a late closing for Metro after a Sunday night game against the Phillies in June, 445 people rode the trains after midnight. That meant it cost the Nationals more than $62 to get each of those fans home.
Smart investment
Dear Dr. Gridlock:
I have a senior card that I use to buy paper Farecards in increments of $20. Do you know if I would be better off buying a Metro SmarTrip card? Does a SmarTrip card have an expiration time on it? I ride Metro only a few times a year.
Kay Quirk, Alexandria
DG: Even an occasional rider will be better off with a plastic SmarTrip card now that Metro has imposed a surcharge on each trip taken with a paper card. People 65 and older get a discount, but they're still paying 50 cents extra per ride with a paper card.

Midwest native coneflowers (Echinacea purpurea) bloom throughout the summer. Plants range in height from 16 inches to 4 feet, depending on the variety. One of our favorites, 'Kim's Knee-High', tops out at 16-20 inches, and doesn't flop over in the wind and rain. Traditional colors are pink-purple and white, but new cultivars such as 'Tomato Soup' showcase red, yellow and other bright hues.

Heaven And Earth has been around since the 1990s, releasing two albums (a self-titled debut in 1998, and "Windows To The World" in 2001), one EP (Taste Of Heaven in 2006), and a DVD (Making of Heaven And Earth in 2007). The lineup has shifted over the years, but founding member and guitarist Stuart Smith has been around throughout. On "Dig" he's joined by Joe Retta (formerly of Sweet) on vocals, Chuck Wright (known from Quiet Riot) on bass, Richie Onori on drums, and Arlan Schierbaum on the Hammond organ.
These guys certainly have some serious musical chops, and "Dig" comes loaded with some very well-crafted melodic hard rock, decked out with fine touches of classic rock, and melodic rock as well. A quick look at the list of guest musicians hints at some of the band's influences, for example, there's Howard Leese (Heart), David Paich (Toto) and Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi). Several tunes also bring Deep Purple to mind, and not just because of that Hammond organ – there's just an attractive 1970s sensibility to the music, infusing all that hard rock with a lot of groove and blues.
You get the feel for that 70s-vibe right away on opening track "Victorious", a rousing rocker that feels like an epic battle hymn, with a melody that swings and grooves with Schierbaum's terrific organ playing. It's one of the album's best tracks, showing off Stuart's huge and skillful guitar work, the power of the rhythm section, and Retta's strong and impressive rock'n'roll pipes.
Second track "No Money, No Love" is a great hot and heavy rocker, and the band revs its hard-rocking engine again on the speeding "Man & Machine" with some serious rock'n'roll howls, and beautifully heavy drums.
Other standouts include the passionately bluesy "House of Blues" with excellent vocals and dazzling guitar work; and the riffy and groovy "Back In Anger", touching on some of the doomsday news currently making headlines. My favorite tune on the album is probably the dark and evocative "Sexual Insanity" which switches easily and effectively between slow and smoldering heat, and hard-driving, hard-rocking passion.
While I prefer Heaven And Earth's heavier tunes, there are some good ballads here too. The best of the bunch is "I Don't Know What Love Is" – the kind of tune that tugs at your heartstrings with a gorgeous acoustic intro, and tender vocals. "Waiting For The End Of The World" is a keeper as well – it has a folk-rock tone, starting out with some softer vocals before the band fires up and reveals the tunes heavy rocking heart.
A couple of the ballads towards the end are a bit too soft for my liking, but this is still a solid and inspired album. Fans of melodic hard rock and classic rock will definitely find lots to love here.

Rising Star of the Month
About Heaven and Earth: |
Taking up from where iconic bands like Deep Purple and Bad Company have left off, Heaven & Earth is on a mission to resurrect the sanctity of classic rock to its purist, most accessible form. Heaven & Earth fuses elements of hard rock, blues, even bits of classical, to create a potent blend of high-powered anthems, melodic rockers and introspective ballads that evoke the spirit of a magical era.
Tapping into the methodology and madness of old-school rock with a new-school attitude, Heaven & Earth are shaking their classic rock roots down to the very core on their newest effort, Dig (Quarto Valley Records). The album, produced by Dave Jenkins — who's turned the knobs for everyone from Metallica to Tower of Power — and scheduled for an April 2013 release, features guitarist Stuart Smith, singer Joe Retta, bassist Chuck Wright, drummer Richie Onori and keyboardist Arlan Schierbaum, along with special guests Howard Leese (Heart, Paul Rodgers) and David Paich (Toto) and Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi). As the band's founder and visionary, Smith says Dig is "the best thing I've ever done in my life." The origins of Heaven & Earth align the guitarist with a rich lineage of rock's most celebrated musicians. Kelly Hansen (Foreigner), Joe Lynn Turner (Rainbow) and Kelly Keeling (King Kobra) all fronted the band at various junctures. Guitarist Richie Sambora (Bon Jovi), singer and bassist Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple, Black Country Communion), and drummer Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge) have each contributed their extraordinary talents to the music of Heaven & Earth. Early in his career, Smith distinguished himself by making the acquaintance of Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore, who mentored the up-and-coming musician. "I'm probably one of the few people in the world who grew up with a poster of someone on their wall, ended up meeting them, becoming friends with them, and getting mentored by them," Smith notes. "I feel I owe everything I do to Ritchie. He taught me a lot about the guitar." Heeding Blackmore's advice, he migrated to New York and after three years jamming around Manhattan and Long Island, headed west to Los Angeles, where he's been ever since. Smith established himself as an in-demand guitarist in L.A., playing countless sessions and joining up with other British expats like Keith Emerson and Sweet. Around the same time, Heaven & Earth was conceived as a side project, something to cultivate Smith's creative juices between stints working with others. A few false starts and random gigs in, he recruited Richie Onori and singer Kelly Hansen to record the first album, Heaven & Earth Featuring Stuart Smith. He also invited along a few heavy friends like Richie Sambora, Joe Lynn Turner, Glenn Hughes, Carmine Appice, Howard Leese, Chuck Wright, Arlan Schierbaum, Robbie Wykoff and many more to appear on the record. Windows to the World, produced by Howard Leese, followed in 2000 and featured Onori, Wright, Schierbaum and singer Kelly Keeling. Four years later, when Smith and Onori started their own label, Black Star Records, to reissue the first Heaven & Earth CD, they recorded a four-song EP called A Taste of Heaven with Paul Shortino handling the vocals. Joe Retta entered the picture when he joined Sweet in 2008. "I wanted to write and record new music and so did Stuart," the singer recalls. "We discovered eventually that Sweet did not." Smith adds, "After touring with him in Sweet and recording with him in the studio, there was no other choice. Everyone else was second best." In the summer of 2012, the guitarist tendered his resignation to Sweet bassist Steve Priest and set out to mold Heaven & Earth into a world-class recording and touring band. Having Retta, Onori, Wright and Schierbaum committed and on board, Smith says Heaven & Earth is now a "real band," ready to unleash its unique brand of classic rock upon an unsuspecting public. Dig is very much a collaborative effort. Quarto Valley Records has been integral in allowing the band to develop and nurture the album without pressure. "We are incredibly lucky to have Quarto Valley Records president, Bruce Quarto behind this project," Smith says. "He told us from the very beginning that he didn't care how long it took or how much it cost. If we come out of the studio and feel we could have done better, he wants us to go back in and do it again. We've been able to take our time crafting the songs. It's very rare to have that kind of support and belief in what you're doing." A good portion of the music on Dig was brought to the band by Smith. He came up with riffs and the band worked up songs as Retta wrote vocal melodies and lyrics. On one occasion, Smith and Retta went on a hike and discussed the idea of putting together a song in the vein of a Rainbow classic co-written by their friend Ronnie James Dio. "We both played at his memorial service," Smith recalls. "I thought we needed a song like 'Long Live Rock N' Roll.' But instead of saying society hasn't saved me, the church hasn't saved me, school hasn't saved me, religion and politics haven't saved me… rock and roll has. So we wrote a song called 'Rock 'n Roll Does.' That was a turning point of the album." The music just kept coming. Smith might throw out a title or a concept for Retta to run with, or the singer might have an idea to develop on his own. Or they may turn to the other band members for input — especially Wright, whom Smith describes as a "great part writer." The bassist known for working with rock music icons, Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent, Greg Allman, Gene Simmons and Slash concurs, "Stuart brought in a riff that had a real Middle Eastern flavor, and I jumped right in with a lot of parts that basically rounded out the song." That song is "Victorious," one of the more intense and heavier tracks on Dig — mightily driven by a surly, dominant guitar line, magnificently sustained by Schierbaum's inimitable swipes at the keys. "He's the most amazing Hammond player I've ever seen in my life," Smith raves. Quite an impressive endorsement from someone who was in a band with Keith Emerson. Where does the inspiration come for such an epic piece? Retta says "Victorious" was originally called "Arabia." He and Smith decided the lyrics should appeal to a wider audience, so they went back to the drawing board and recast the song. "The music feels violent to me," the singer explains. "The 'Arabia' version gave me visions of men at war on horseback in the desert. It was already about battle. So a transition to the pre-battle scenario that you hear now is more natural." According to Smith, when work began on Dig, he had just gone through a nasty breakup, which set a dark tone for the first few tunes. "Back In Anger," "No Money No Love" and "I Don't Know What Love Is Anymore" all reflect the emotions the guitarist was experiencing. As work progressed, Smith's mood started to lighten, which affected the direction of the music. For the final number, the uplifting "Live As One," a choir was added to sweeten the melody, ending the record on an extremely high and positive note. Dark to light, hair-raising rockers to intense ballads and all things in between — Smith believes the diversity of material on Dig is inherent even in the Heaven & Earth moniker. "I think it sums up the music," he says. "Dig is very different from the first album I was involved with," Wright adds. "That first album was more of a Stuart Smith solo record. This one is truly a band effort." All the backing tracks on Dig were recorded at Ocean Studios in Burbank, California, and all the overdubs were done at the band's own Wine Cellar Studios in Woodland Hills, California. To further refine the record's sonic reach, Jenkins used a Closed Loop Analog Signal Processor (CLASP), a device that integrates real analog tape recording into digital tools like Pro Tools to create a warm and vintage sound. Both Van Halen and Aerosmith enlisted a CLASP on their most recent albums. In the same tradition, Heaven & Earth brought in photographer/creative director Glen Wexler to create the cover art for Dig. Wexler has shot and designed over 300 album covers, including records by Van Halen, Black Sabbath and ZZ Top. He's also directing the music videos for Dig, planned for release in January 2013. The future has never looked brighter for Heaven & Earth. After years of stopping and starting, adjusting and shifting, Smith feels his time has come. "Everything sort of fell into place for this — the songs, the players, even the old-school approach to recording. I couldn't be more excited." |

Melodic.net name Heaven & Earth "Artist of the Week"
Moving to Heaven & Earth
On a typical end-of-summer warm evening in the San Fernando Valley, I went to check out a band I'd never seen before, playing in a venue I'd never visited. Walking into The Canyon Club in Agoura was like entering a cavernous den from yesteryear. With its dark wood beams and paneling, the floors swaddled in Persian rugs, it felt as if I were stepping into a time machine that took me back to the '70s of Led Zeppelin. It seemed like the perfect place to see this band Heaven & Earth for the first time.
Stuart Smith
The five-piece ensemble took the stage with a strong commanding artistry, opening with the Arabic-influenced "Victorious." I was standing further from the stage when they first began and initially thought there were two guitars playing in unison. As I got closer, I found it was actually the sound of the Stuart Smith's guitar meshed with keyboards by Arlan Schierbaum. This was a great opening song—very powerful and intricate, almost classical sounding, but melodic and hooky which seemed to promise the audience they were in for an epic, eventful show.
The first thing I observed about the musicians was their stage presence and obvious comfort in their realm. Singer Joe Retta pranced around like a proud, scarf-wearing rooster. His strong, unfaltering vocals projected into the space like a 30-year-old David Coverdale. Smith's stance and ease in precision of his guitar playing brought me back to memories of a young Brian May playing Wembley Stadium back in the day. On bass, the creative Tony Franklin held down a very tight rhythm section along with drummer Richie Onori. The awesome, gum- chewing Onori played the obligatory drum solo in the middle of the set, but kept it fresh and entertaining. Throughout the show, Schierbaum's Deep Purplesque keyboards added a dark, but lovely, sonic element to the entire vibe of the band.
Early into the set, Heaven & Earth kept the energy up on "Back in Anger," another fast paced, classically influenced song meshed with hard rock riffs. On "No Money, No Love," they held a more straightforward groove, once again utilizing catchy guitar hooks through the duration of the song.
Joe Retta
Retta picked up a rhythm guitar on "Man & Machine," a song with a great vocal melody and chorus. This was the first instrument the multi-talented vocalist would take advantage of during their set. Smith also added a talk box while playing his guitar to great effect. From that point on, Retta had many tricks up his sleeve, capably playing slide on rhythm guitar, bongos and a bluesy harmonica. At one point, Franklin used effects and tuning techniques to showcase a unique bass solo, which made his instrument sound almost hornlike.
The multitude of instruments from various band members created an interesting variety all through the show.
In a more low-key moment, Smith picked up an acoustic guitar for the romantic "I Don't Know What Love Is." The band then introduced four back-up singers from the acclaimed Agape International Choir. This was a smart and powerful choice, as their rich voices added a soulful depth and angelic clarity to the music.
From start to finish, the venue was about half full, but felt ripe with very enthusiastic fans. Mostly stocked with middle-aged rockers, there were plenty of long blonde weaves and skinny jeans rockin' the room. People were dancing, drinking, snapping photos and generally having a great time taking in and swaying to the music.
Closing the show, the Agape International Choir joined Heaven & Earth once again for a fun rendition of the Spencer Davis Group's "Gimme Some Lovin'" and Deep Purple's first big hit "Hush." With Schierbaum's keys in the forefront, it was clear how much influence Deep Purple had on the band.
There is something to be said for skillful, experienced performers who make playing very intricate music look as effortless as drinking water… Or whiskey in a Persian-rug-filled venue in The Valley, as the case may be.
Stuart Smith with Agape Choir
Heaven & Earth was founded in the '90s by Smith, and longtime bassist Chuck Wright joined the band in the 2000s. Wright recently left the band, saying, "It was a mutual split. Breaking a new band is also very discouraging. This business has changed so much. No one cares, no one buys CDs anymore, no matter how great all the reviews are or having a million views on YouTube. It's sad really."
Musicians have seen a drastic change in how music is marketed and how the music business runs. It's just frustrating to see such a talented, ambitious group struggle to find their way to the masses when everyone should know them. Seek out Heaven & Earth, if you can.

Digging Up a Classic Sound: Heaven & Earth's Stuart Smith and Chuck Wright Discuss Their New Album, 'Dig'
Heaven & Earth's new album, Dig, celebrates the sound of iconic '70s rock music, a time when rock was at what some consider its purist, most accessible form.
Originally an all-star project for guitarist Stuart Smith, Heaven & Earth has since evolved into a full band that includes Joe Retta (vocals), Chuck Wright (bass), Richie Onori (drums) and Arlan Schierbaum (keyboards).
Picking up where iconic bands like Deep Purple and Bad Company left off, Heaven & Earth are on a mission to resurrect the sanctity — or lat least the sound — of classic rock.
I recently spoke with Smith and Wright about the new album, their gear and more.
GUITAR WORLD: How did this album come together?
WRIGHT: Stuart called me and told me he was doing a new Heaven & Earth record and asked if I wanted to take part. I had played on the other Heaven & Earth albums, but those were more like solo records for Stuart, with a lot of guest stars on them. For this one, he wanted us all to get together in a room and hash things out. Get a real band sound going and do it for real. So we partnered up and came together as a band.
SMITH: Joe Retta [vocals] and I have been playing in Sweet for a while. He has such an amazing voice and reminds me of a young Paul Rodgers. Chuck is such a great bassist and also an amazing writer.
How would you describe the sound of Dig?
SMITH: It's a very '70s-sounding album; it's a period we all came from and can relate to. We really spent a lot of time crafting the songs to bring some of the "new" classic rock sound back to the forefront. It's become our mission statement. Chuck was the one who said it best: "It's something that has been buried for far too long!"
Let's discuss the origin of the song "No Money, No Love."
SMITH: I had just gone through a breakup in a relationship and remember having all of these emotions when I came up with the title and riff. It was from personal experience.
How did you come up with the concept for the video?
WRIGHT: We all got together with our creative director, Glen Wexler (Michael Jackson, Van Halen, Black Sabbath). He's known for creating situations that are both unusual and wonderful. That's how we came up with the album cover and the idea of a Stratocaster being pulled out of the ground. It really represented bringing back rock and roll to us.
For the video, Glen brought in the idea after we had discussed a few others. It takes place in a Victorian bordello where the female character has to choose between love and money. In the end, she chooses money and winds up being suffocated by it. It's a storyline we'll be keeping throughout our videos; a couple that can never connect, through time.
When did you both start playing?
SMITH: My father was a jet fighter pilot who lived on the base. When I was 7, someone he knew was being transferred overseas and had a Spanish guitar hanging on their wall. He asked my dad if he thought I'd like it. So my father got me the guitar and gave me classical lessons. I played for several years, never really having any interest in rock music.
Then one night, I got dragged by some friends of my parents to a Deep Purple concert. Suddenly, I saw this guy all dressed in black come running up to the end of the stage and start tearing up these incredible classical runs with such emotion and volume that it just blew me away. I instantly became a huge fan, and that was what turned me on to rock music and bands like Free and Black Sabbath. Years later, I met Ritchie [Blackmore], and we became friends and he mentored me. I couldn't have asked for a better teacher. He's the best in the world.
WRIGHT: I started when I was 14. I was in military school for almost nine years, and my first gig was at a fraternity party. I made $75 that night, drank my first beer and remember all the girls said I was cute. That was when I told my mom, "I think I want to do this instead of military school!" [laughs].
Stuart, what's your current setup like?
SMITH I like to use old '70s Strats with the big headstocks. I modify them quite a bit including having the necks slightly scalped, which is Richie's idea. I've also been using a Marshall Major, which is one of Richie's old amps he gave me.
What satisfies you the most about Dig and Heaven & Earth?
SMITH: The biggest satisfaction for me is that it's a band, and I'm really looking forward to getting this group out on the road and touring.
WRIGHT: We tried to go for a very analog, '70s rock sound with polish. It's definitely an old-school record. I like to say it's one of those albums you'd discover deep within the vaults at Atlantic Records. One that was recorded way back then that no one had ever had a chance to listen to, until now!

PC Installation
The objective of this section is selection and installation of the power supply, hard disk drive, optical drive, and main board.
I don't champion any particular manufacturer and encourage you to select components to fit your computing requirements. There are forums and magazines devoted to evaluating PC component performance such as bit-tech.net.
PC components vary somewhat in performance and are continually being improved, however Form Factors remain constant. Form Factor ensures that key dimensions such as mount points and I/O interfaces are the same across manufactures. This chassis design uses the most common PC Form Factors.
The table below is an expample of new, mid level components at 2011 pricing.
PC Parts | Description | No. | Supplier | Stock No. | USD ea. | Total |
S3 | Toggle Switch, DPDT, MOM, On-Off-On, 5A | 1 | DK | EG2419-ND | 4.59 | 4.59 |
Power Supply | Antec BP550 | 1 | Various | NA | 70.00 | 70.00 |
Main Board | Intel BOXDG45ID | 1 | Various | NA | 90.00 | 90.00 |
CPU | Celeron E3300 | 1 | Various | NA | 54.00 | 54.00 |

Power Supply
Form Factor: ATX12V
Rated Power: 550 - 1000 W. There are various web sites that offer interactive calculators to estimate power requirements. The following power requirement
was generated by Antec. Their calculator is located here.
Modular Cabling: Due to space limitations, detachable cables are required. A power supply certified as "Modular" allows removal of
unused cables from the power supply, producing less clutter, a neater appearance and less resistance to airflow.
Device Connections: Ensure that the power supply has power connections for SATA drives. Also consider connection requirements for graphics cards
and main board.
Install the power supply and fasten to the rear panel using four #6-32 x 3/8" machine screws. Remove the modular cabling until required.
Hard Disk and Optical Drives
Form Factor (HDD): 3.5"
Form Factor (Optical): 5.25"
HDD Considerations: Data interface should be SATA, not for performance but cable routing. IDE interface uses a wide ribbon cable that is difficult to route and restricts air flow. Capacity should be 1 to 1.5 TB. No reason to skimp on media storage space. Consider starting out with one drive and adding a second as media content grows. Common drive speed choices are 7200 and 5400 rpm. Unless you are planning on serious gaming, data access speed is not critical. A 5400 rpm drive will run cooler and quieter and use less power.
Optical Drive Considerations: Data interface must be SATA. Consider media requirements such as CD, DVD and Blu-ray. Does this drive really need write capability?
Install the drives and drive head.
Main Board
Form Factor: Micro ATX (9.6" x 9.6")
The main board used in this system specs out as follows:
- Make: DFI Infinity RS482
- CPU: AMD Opteron 144
- South Bridge: ATI SB450
- North Bridge: ATI Radeon Express 200 RS482
- RAM: 512 MB, DDR2 (256 MB allocated to on board graphics)
- Graphics: On Board ATI Radeon X300 (DVI-D + VGA, DVI-D + S-Video
More than sufficient for playback and trans-coding. Your mileage may vary.
Consider the following options when selecting the main board:
- Display connection (VGA, DVI-D, S-Video, HDMI)
- Dual display required?
- USB, Fire-wire, LAN
For media playback, this does not require a high end PC.
Note: The stock fan supplied with AMD / Intel processors are loud, consider upgrading.
- Install the main board with CPU, RAM and I/O shield and fasten to the chassis tray using #6-32 machine screws.
- Locate the 2.54 mm male front panel header on the main board. Header location and pin configuration are listed in the main board user manual.
These pins control main board power on, re-boot and power HDD activity and system power LED's.
In order to power on and re-boot, two pins are contacted momentarily. This is accomplished using S3 (DPDT MOM, On-Off-On). The HDD activity and power on LED's are connected to the header honoring polarity.
- Connect S3 and LED's according to the schematic below. The pin configuration shown is specific to this main board, consult the user manual.
LED's listed are interchangeable.
- Connect the power to the HDD and optical drive using one cable. Connect the main board power. Connect the HDD and optical
SATA data cables.
- Organize cables with cable ties.
Final Fit
- Load the chassis into the case and select locations to install three EZ-LOK #6-32 brass wood inserts into the rear edge of the case (top, left and right). These inserts will secure the chassis to the case.
- Transfer the location of the holes to the chassis Rear Panel and drill holes with a 7/32" bit. A 7/32" hole allows for a slight amount of chassis movement caused by changes in humidity. Before drilling the holes, put a piece of masking tape where the bit will exit to prevent metal chips from falling inside the chassis.
- Match drill holes for the #6-32 brass wood inserts into the rear edge of the case using a 5/16" bit (about 1/32" smaller than the thread diameter).
- Do not attempt to drive these inserts using the screw driver profile on the insert. Instead, install a #6-32 machine screw in the insert with a nut
for back up and then use the machine screw to drive the insert.
- Fasten the chassis to the case using three #6-32 x 1/2" machine screws and slightly over sized washers.

<biography, history of philosophy> Indian political leader (1869-1948), also called "Mahatma" (the Great-Souled). In opposition to racial discrimination against Indian nationals in South Africa and to British colonial rule of India itself, Gandhi urged the practice of Satyagraha in a practical effort to achieve peaceful resolution of political differences as head of the Indian National Congress. Constructive Programme: Its Meaning and Place (1941) includes a detailed description of the method he espoused. Active in efforts to reduce Hindu-Muslim ethnic conflict, Gandhi himself was assassinated by a Hindu fanatic.

Velopalooza rides a meditative new route
On the very last day of this year's Velopalooza festival, two-wheeled coconspirators Carmen Mills and Sara Ross will pedal off on their free Bicycle Buddha Ride.
The group excursion, which takes place on July 2, promises to have a twist or two along the way.
Mills, an anti–Gateway Program activist and long-time blogger, explained to the Georgia Straight at the Union Food Market in Strathcona: "There is this huge variety of crazy rides that go out for Velopalooza. We're going to be riding out at the exact same time as the Seven Deadly Sins ride, so we hope we can intersect with them at some opportune corners."
Such is the fluid, organic nature of Velopalooza (which takes place from June 15 to July 2) that Mills and East Vancouver artist Ross (aka Red Sara) took it in stride, didn't worry about rescheduling, and even took time to ponder which sin they might confront during their ride through East Vancouver, which starts at 1 p.m. from Mosaic Creek Park at Napier and Woodland streets and ends at about 5 p.m. at the same spot.
"Sloth, gluttony, desire—I don't know," Mills joked. "We'll all take a rest when we hit sloth."
According to the Velopalooza website, the ride seeks to "explore cycling as meditation" on a casual jaunt to some of East Vancouver's Buddhist haunts. The pair went to great lengths to point out that the ride is entry-level, rather than being geared toward regular riders, and will not be overly strenuous.
Mills said she feels people are "seeking spiritual grounding to inform their practical actions" in life. Hence, in B.C. there are more than 100 "dharma" centres of various stripes, she added.
Mills said one confirmed stop on the ride is the Tilopa Kadampa Buddhist Centre (1829 Victoria Diversion). Another is the Yanviriya Temple Buddhist Society (2004 East Pender Street), which practises in the Thai Theravada tradition. Also on the route is the recently opened Mountain Rain Zendo at 2016 Wall Street. It was established for students of the Japanese Soto Zen tradition.
The Dharmalab, at 1814 Pandora Street between Commercial and Victoria drives, is a community space that was also created as a meditation space for peer-led students of Los Angeles teacher Noah Levine. Levine created the Dharma Punx movement, and Mills claimed the Dharmalab has a slightly more "secular" bent.
"In order to ride the path, you must become the path itself," the ride description notes at the Velopalooza website.
Ride participants will get a "little introduction to the various traditions" by their hosts at each place, Mills added.
"It will be a cycling meditation, because cycling is inherently so meditative, and it brings you so close to the fresh reality that is around you, without any glass between you and the world," Mills said. "Which is the connection between that and Buddhist philosophy. It's about unmediated reality and really appreciating the immediacy of the moment."
Ross, who lives in an "intentional community" rental house in East Vancouver in a cooperative environment, has taken part in Velopalooza rides before and belongs to the B:C:Clettes bicycle dance troupe.
"And I think it also connects with the breath, which is one of the common tools used in meditation—a focus on the breath," Ross said of the Bicycle Buddha ride. "And in cycling, you're breathing in and you're breathing out. It's what gets you there."
