Review: Google gets it right with Nexus 5 Android smartphone
Finally, Google's flagship smartphone can actually compete with other Android flagships
I've found Google's previous attempts to create a "pure Android" flagship smartphone uninspiring. Last year's LG-built Nexus 4 didn't support LTE, for example, and the previous year's Samsung-built Galaxy Nexus marred its nice hardware with a series of software flaws. The first Google-branded device, 2010's Nexus One, ended up a big disappointment, with iffy 3G connectivity and no distinct features -- so much for being a flagship.
Thus, I wasn't particularly eager to test the LG-built Nexus 5, released in small quantities on Halloween (a second batch is now available for purchase from Google's website). But I was pleasantly surprised by the Nexus 5. This is a nice Android smartphone, with hardware that's pleasant and capable, as well as software that feels more polished than previous "pure Android" attempts.

A nicely polished, restrained software design
It's the first Android device to run Android 4.4 KitKat, but that version is a minor update to the more commonly used Android 4.2/4.3 Jelly Bean. What's notable about the Nexus 5's software are the polish and simplicity evident in the home screens, Settings app, and common apps like Email and Calendar. The polish is similar to that of the HTC One -- and it's a marked contrast to the feature jumble evident in the Samsung Galaxy S 4. The changes are subtle -- mainly around clean, restrained design -- but they lead to a very nice experience.
Case in point is the use of icons in mail messages to indicate the sender. It works like iOS 7's Phone and Messages apps, with the person's image displayed if available and the letter of the first name if not. It's a very quick way to find messages from a specific person. The Email app also shows more context at the top of a message, such as what folder it's in and controls for displaying images in the message. That often pushes the meat of the message down below the visible message window -- but the same is true in the Galaxy S 4's Email client, which feels less polished despite having essentially the same information displayed.
Likewise, the Calendar app in the Nexus 5 is simpler than that in the Galaxy S 4. The Nexus 5 doesn't copy Samsung's use of side tabs to switch among views (such as Month and List), but instead uses a menu at the top that leaves more space for your calendar entries to appear. But the Nexus 5 does copy iOS 7's ability to scroll horizontally from week to week or vertically from month to month, a convenience the Galaxy S 4 does not offer.

When visiting the Opus Gallery In Newcastle to view April Jarocka's work for real, I was also impressed with the inside of the building. It was built in 1886 and the internal decor is almost unspoiled from the original. It is just the odd fire alarm cable can be seen that is modern. So I asked if I could take some photographs of the architecture and permission did not seem to be a problem.
However, after taking a couple of photographs I was informed by the building manager that photography inside the building was not permitted and I was ejected, politely but ejected nonetheless, from the building. It's a hard life being a photographer! However, I will attempt to gain permission from the building manager in due course.
This is a photograph of the stair case just in from the main entrance, It's a teaser of the building's inner treasures.
This photograph was taken before being ejected from the building.
The lighting was a mixture of daylight, tungsten light, and energy saving fluorescent lights – nightmare scenario. Colour balance achieved using custom colour balance and my trusty envelope!

A wonderful capture Harry.
The tiles are amazing and to think they have lasted all that time, modern tiling only seems to last a few years, where have we gone wrong eh? Brilliant. Don.
The inside is wonderful, but I didn't manage to get to the wood work and the mosaic floors. It's an absolute treasure, but unattainable at the moment.
Thanks for your comment Don, I appreciate it, but look out for No. 2!
– Harry Purves
It's a horrible feeling when we are not allowed to take simple photographs. I remember being hassled by security guards at the Thames Barrier, but after explaining why I was there, they obliged, reluctantly.
I find a refusal is often their first reply, until you explain what you would do to obtain the images and what you would use them for. Then they often see there is no security issue and agree. But I thought I had already done that, it turns out I asked the wrong people! Sometime they ask for prints, I generally give them a lot of options to chose from and that normally causes a tilt followed by, that's Ok just take you pictures.
– Harry Purves
This is an awesome picture Harry. I love the Art Deco styling. It is beautiful!
It is a stunning building Chris, I think it is difficult to get a poor image in there, but it is also difficult to get any images in there if you go in with a DSRL camera Kit and tripod, like I did. I always like to use available light. I don't own a separate flash so it would have to be the one mounted on the camera that produces the worst lighting possible.
Thanks Chris, I really do appreciate your comments!
– Harry Purves
I didn't see the stairs. I used the lift. I pressed F and the door opened. Turns out the ground floor is F and the top floor is A. I took a few photos at the very top.
I was mesmerised by the building so I didn't see the lift !!! :)
– Harry Purves
Hi Harry
This brings back memories as I used to run up these stairs, 2 flights- I never used the lift- to keep fit, when I worked there for a few years in the 1990s. Great photos considering the lighting.
I believe they were shipping offices originally.
Cheers Neil
Hi Neil, yes you're right they were shipping offices originally. How times change. Your comment makes me curious what you did in the 90's in Milburn Building, but I'll not ask ;o)
The light level is not the real problem, because it can be overcome by using a tripod and a very slow shutter speed. The biggest problem is the colour temperature because it is a mix of several different light source types. It's a night mare trying to get the picture to "look right".
Thanks for commenting, it was very stimulating for me, and it was also a great comment Neil.
– Harry Purves
When I first entered the doors of this magnificent building I was most taken aback by the Victorian Tiles and feel ~ not at all expecting such an entrance way at all. Lovely photos.
The building just added to the ambiance of the gallery. I loved the art deco (it's my absolute fave style, but obviously I'm too young to have seen it first hand). The tiles and the wood work and the mosaic floor – all magnificent. Thanks for commenting April.
– Harry Purves
Hi Harry
I was the office manager for the Corps of Commissionaires. We had our 100th anniversary in that building and a dinner in the Civic Centre.
Cheers Neil
That is astounding, and all this time I didn't even know it existed. I don't suppose you can put me in touch with someone who would support my desire to photograph the internal décor? Still I've been refused before and I don't suppose this would be the last time either. I previously requested to photograph the school building opposite the Fox Hunter's pub. Obviously there was the issue of school children, but I asked if I could do that over the summer break – still no. So that building will remain anonymous no doubt.
– Harry Purves
Next time, wear a big anorak and hide your camera equipment under it. Go to floor A (the top). There is a Gents loo there to hide in if you hear the Building Manager approaching. Either that or try slumming it with a little pocket camera ☺
I had a similar experience recently when I took a photo of an ornament in Alnwick Castle. I was actually ordered to delete the photo (I only pretended to though).
Oooh you naughty boy.
– Harry Purves
Hi Harry
The company I worked for is no longer there and it was in the 90s so I don't think the same caretaker will be there now. I never even thought about photoing the the inside the building when I worked there. Try on a Saturday !!
Cheers neil
Sounds like a good idea. I'll have a go at getting permission first though. I'm not keen on getting kicked out again, it may be more legal a second time. I can offer to supply some prints as a sweetener.
– Harry Purves

Poroshenko, the rabidly insane Netanyahu of Kiev, speaks about Ukrainian's constant desire and dream for "peace", but their actions and deeds point to a culture that is quite primitive and barbaric. After the rise of the "Ukrainian nationalists" to power in a violent coup, Ukrainians have launched their "anti-terror-operation" (sound Jewish to you?) complete with massive indiscriminate bombardment of villages and cities as well as targeted shelling of schools, hospitals, and residential districts. Sound rather Jewish?

Presentation emphasizes challenge of warfighting in contested environments

66th Air Base Group Public Affairs
11/21/2012 -
BEDFORD, Mass.
-- The ability for warfighters to perform necessary missions in contested electronic environments was highlighted during the Military Affairs Council meeting Nov. 15 at the Doubletree Bedford Glen hotel.
"EW is similar to cyber as there are asymmetrical threats out there," said Bruce Johnson, Command and Control Center chief engineer for technology. "Over the last 10 years in particular, there has been a globalization of technology. Technologies are available to nation and non-nation states that can affect the electromagnetic spectrum."
Johnson spoke about a study that the Air Force is working on called Effective Warfighting in Contested Environments.
The study is looking at how to effectively fight in an electromagnetic contested environment.
During the past five years, this area has been a challenge and it has been brought up during exercises and by combatant commanders as a significant issue. They also expressed concern about each of the services addressing the problem its own way. Therefore, the study is also looking at joint and coalition operations.
The study, which is being led by the Air Combat Command, is looking at the threats and vulnerabilities, and what can be done about them.
"Adversaries can attack our most extensive weapons systems with relatively inexpensive systems," said Johnson.
Materiel solutions and tactics, techniques and training are being looked at as areas for improvements, including the interrelationships between them.
"We're looking for the best of breed - reasonable, cost-effective solutions," said Johnson.
He emphasized the study is not looking at long term research, but for innovative ideas that can be incorporated into existing programs of records. Johnson said that's where he sees industry being able to be involved, by bringing those ideas to the table. Some of the areas he sees industry being able to assist with include enhanced training tools and capabilities and advanced electronic warfare concepts.
Lt. Gen. C.D. Moore, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center commander, who had been participated in community meetings locally throughout the week, said he was "thrilled" to have the chance to work with industry on addressing these challenges.
"We need to think differently about how we do business," he said. "I'm charged up to see the government working with industry to come up with the right solutions."

Former Egyptian president Mubarak in court 370.
(photo credit:Reuters screenshot)
The latest news from Cairo is that ousted president Hosni Mubarak is to face
trial all over again, both on charges on which he was acquitted a year ago
(corruption) and on those he was convicted on (the killing of demonstrators).
The retrial was ordered speedily, even strangely, by the standards of Western
legal procedure.Nothing about it is clear and nobody can reliably
interpret what happened. It could be presented as a legal victory for Mubarak.
At the same time, it might well be another vindictive move to distract the
public from its daily woes and from the undeniable failings of the new
administration. The latter is the likelier explanation.It is less
plausible that the elderly and ill Mubarak won a court battle and that the
Egyptian legal establishment gave him an even break in defiance of the country's
new Muslim overlords, whose antagonism to Mubarak is no secret. Egypt's
judiciary was never independent of government manipulation and is less likely
now than ever to take on the powers that be.The Muslim Brotherhood
regime under Mohamed Morsi had altogether stifled the courts by pronouncing
Morsi immune from judicial scrutiny. Morsi handily won a referendum on the
issue.Mubarak's first trial (despite its mixed verdict and life
imprisonment instead of capital punishment) bore all the hallmarks of a show
trial, which serves the propaganda purposes of the rulers, is geared to
intimidate would-be dissidents and whose verdict and retributive sentences have
been pre-determined.The odds are that we are in for another show trial,
more entertainment for the masses and more fodder for the mob. Egypt will be
hurled back to the trauma of two years ago and its new leaders probably hope
that this will ease the pressure on them.The international community
does not seem to care. Although they once honored and feted Mubarak, world
leaders abruptly changed tack, branded him a tyrannical ogre and cheered his
opponents as harbingers of the "Arab Spring." The truth is that while hardly a
democratic paragon, Mubarak was not the worst of Mideastern
autocrats.Furthermore, Morsi, who has officially put himself above the
law, has seen demonstrators killed under his watch as well. Then there are his
radical Muslim proclivities, including his recently disclosed past comments
where he exhorted his compatriots to "nurse our children and our grandchildren
on hatred." Elsewhere, he depicted Jews and Zionists as "bloodsuckers" and as
"the descendants of apes and pigs."The so-called "Arab Spring" has
evolved into something that ought to trouble the free world deeply and not be
put out of mind and off the global agenda. It is not Mubarak's fate that is
important here but the rubber-stamp decisions produced by judges, in all
probability after behind-the-scenes collusion between the Muslim Brotherhood and
Egypt's still potent military establishment. The latter remain a factor to be
reckoned with even if its aging top echelon has been been sacrificed.The
revolution did not change what was amiss in Egypt. Under Mubarak, the judges did
his bidding.Under Morsi and his new constitution, the judges have
resumed obeying orders from above.The more things change the more they
stay the same, regardless of the gross misperceptions and mesmerized wishful
thinking in Western Europe and America. Politicians with axes to grind,
academicians and opinion-molders appear to believe that democracy can be
instantly conjured.But democracy is not defined by screaming throngs in
the streets – vehement protests can be readily orchestrated by anti-democratic
agitators. Democracy is not solely defined by elections – many a despot has
taken power apparently via the ballot box. Democracy is a far more complex
composite, which includes an unbridled critical press, fearless free expression
and – foremost – protecting the lot, a truly autonomous judiciary.The
Obama administration and the EU appear to have been ignored all this in their
alacrity to embrace Morsi. The Mubarak retrial constitutes another reminder that
we have reason to worry.

Rosie O'Donnell Says New Romance Is 'Delicious'
A rep confirmed last week that the Texas-based artist and mother of six is O'Donnell's new girlfriend. "Now I don't have to spend two hours a day trying not to say it," O'Donnell said on her show.
Kachtick-Anders is active in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender parenting and adoption issues. She launched Open Arms Campaign, a non-profit organization to recruit and foster adoptive families that targets the LGBT community. O'Donnell acknowledged that the public attention would be strange for both of them.
"I had no idea that it would be on CNN," she said. "It's odd for me ... and quite odd for Tracy."
The 'Wedding Crashers' star married his girlfriend who's ten years his younger on January 2 in a small Chicago ceremony.

How to win over social media holdouts
Source: Bnet
Are reluctant co-workers stifling every attempt to bring social media into your workplace? Bnet Blogger Jessica Stillman suggests seven ways to win them over.
One idea: Don't sell them on the concept, sell them on a solution. Find a specific need that social media might fill, such as employee training, and explain how the technology could help. Also, point out how other organizations have put the technology to work. That might help your co-workers grasp the concept better -- and it might shame them into giving it a try.
But don't fight this battle by yourself. Find others in the organization who have embraced social media and get their help in educating your reluctant co-workers.
Finally, if all else fails, "give the gift of social media," Stillman wrote. "With the holidays at hand, this is a perfect time to get in the giving mood (even if it does have a bit of a hidden agenda). There are many resources available on the evolution of social media. Present your boss, co-workers or employees with a copy of the latest book to get their wheels turning."
Virtues of virtual town hall meetingsSource: "Complexity and Social Networks" blog
Online "town hall" meetings are proving to be a big hit with members of Congress and their constituents, according to a new report highlighted by Harvard University's David Lazer.
Online meetings increased the likelihood that participants would vote and try to persuade other people to vote, the report states. It was produced by the Congressional Management Foundation.
The meetings also drew individuals who might not otherwise get involved. "These sessions were more likely than traditional venues to attract people from demographics not traditionally engaged in politics and people frustrated with the political system," the study concluded.
Meanwhile, the elected officials come away looking like winners. According to the study, which evaluated a series of online town hall meetings held by 13 members of Congress, approval ratings jumped by an average of 18 points after a session.
The best tech of 2009Source: PC World
Ease of use, rather than novelty, was the deciding factor in PC World's choice of Apple's App Store as the best technology of 2009. Other smart phone manufacturers support third-party software, but no one has made it so easy to download so many inexpensive, useful programs, the editors wrote.
On the other hand, Google Voice made the list for a combination of innovation (a single number for all a user's phones, e-mailed transcripts of voice messages) and attractive pricing (free). "Set up conference calls for free, record calls, even switch phones in the middle of a call," they wrote. "And it's all free. Ma Bell, eat your heart out."
The top hardware products are the 160G Intel X25-M solid-state drive, an internal storage device priced at $500, and the Nikon D300s digital camera, priced at $1,770. According to the PC World editors, the camera excels at both photos and videos and offers a built-in microphone.

What a find, doesn't look much from a distance but you must try this place! The food is out of this world. Fresh fish, the shrimps are huge. Nice staff , good atmosphere, reasonably priced, have a nice range of food, from fish to traditional dishes.
This restaurant was a welcome change from our unexiting half-board at the hotel. Service and food are both excellent!
Nice, refined restaurant in a good location close to the beach. The food was very good and also well presented, the staff were nice and professional. I really liked the fish recommended by them. We will come back.
The fish was good. Excellent fresh tuna and a great selection. The deserts were authentic. Creme caramel was gorgeous. Sadly The cocktails were nearly pure alcohol. Not enjoyabke
We ate here a couple of lunchtimes whilst staying at the hotel. Good varied menu and excellent food.
very good fresh fish and a nice chill out small beer, peaceful and good service, no sea view though, it's only just down from the hotel pools so convenient for snacks too
We had light lunches here on several days and found the quality pretty good. The service was a little slow but very pleasant staff.
We ate here several times at lunchtime whilst staying at the hotel. The food was excellent, the wine delicious and very good service. Recommended!
If you want to eat on a Fri or Sat eve you need to book. Sat eve had live music, Food was good, although service bit slow, but heh, on holiday so not in a rush.
We had a very good fish of the day here. The vaiter helped us choose. The restaurant was neat and nice decorated.

November 28, 2014
Lots of people live their whole lives without fulfilling their dreams. For Marshfield native Steven Arendt, his dream was to show off his specially modified '97 Ford Mustang in a car show before he died, a reachable goal, since he was only 27, but one he would never fulfill.
"My brother had passed away before he was able to show this car in a car show," said Jean Machart, Steven Arendt's sister.
Arendt's sister and brother-in-law took up the reins for him and started this car show in the Marshfield Mall's parking lot and Steven's Mustang is featured in the show along with a couple of dozen other muscle cars.
Along with the hopes of earning a trophy, those entered in the show are there to help raise money to help fight hemophilia, the disease that killed Steven.
Hemophilia affects mostly men and prevents their blood from clotting. The disease is often deadly.
"There are a number of people out there who are affected by bleeding disorders. It's kind of an invisible ailment," said Brian Machart, Steven's brother-in-law.
To help fight that ailment, the Machart's hold a silent auction and take donations at what has become an annual car show.
They hope to raise several thousand dollars this year, all of which will go to the Great Lakes Hemophilia Foundation to help prevent what happened to Steven from happening to anyone else in central Wisconsin.
If you'd like to learn more about Hemophilia or find out how you can help, log on to www.glhf.org

Hooksett parents speak out about Manchester schools
Hooksett parents spoke up loud and clear at a joint meeting between Manchester and Hooksett school officials Thursday night.
"Hooksett and Manchester kids can't get the education they are worthy of [given the budget issues]," said Phil Denbow, whose daughter graduated from Central last year. "I now have an eighth-grader who will be heading to high school this fall. With the current money issues that your district is having, why would I knowingly send my son into that environment?"
"I honestly feel this board is failing my daughters," said Dave Levesque, who has twin daughters who are West seniors. Levesque took issue with extended lunch periods, aging computer systems, and Hooksett's lack of representation on the Manchester Board of School Committee.
Manchester Superintendent Thomas Brennan, Mayor Ted Gatsas and the Manchester Board of School Committee all were in attendance, but did not have an opportunity to respond to the public's comments.
Between the two boards, discussion ranged from budget issues to the use of Manchester High School West. There were also questions about Hooksett's recent change of policy allowing parents to transfer their students from the Manchester schools, and whether that change was in violation of the contract between the city and town.
Hooksett School Board member David Pearl asked the city board to vote on whether they felt the policy to be a violation, saying: "I think if you feel that way, you should say it. If you don't, I would appreciate it if you don't say it."
Gatsas interrupted Pearl, saying, "if we thought you were in violation, we wouldn't be sitting here having this conversation."
Manchester's continuing budget issues were another point of concern. Pearl noted that "the result is unpredictable."
"The budget that the mayor must produce in the city of Manchester must take into consideration the tax cap," said Gatsas. "Under the guidelines of our charter, I don't have any choices. I can tell you that I will follow the law of the city."
Also discussed was the possibility of using Manchester West, which is under-enrolled, by transferring Hooksett Central students to West or leasing West as a Hooksett high school. The idea was put forth by Brennan during an Oct. 2 meeting with the Hooksett School Board.
Pearl took issue with the suggestion that Hooksett should set the terms of such a discussion.
"If it's a plan that you have, part of that plan I think would be what you're planning to offer to us," he said. "From my point of view, there's nothing appealing about the process, because nothing has happened to West to make it appealing to us."
Brennan noted that the leasing option has unique benefits.
"The roles would be reversed, where we would be sending students to your high school [and] where you, as a school district, could control the education and other aspects of that building," he said.
The Manchester Board of School Committee will meet with the Candia School Board, which has also expressed concerns about overcrowding in the city schools, at the Health Department building in Manchester on Nov. 26 at 7 p.m.

As the 2014 Legislative Session convened Feb. 25, a main focus of this short session will be passing a bonding bill for much needed construction and repairs for our buildings, roads, and bridges. There are other issues at hand that I will also address, and I am confident about this legislative session.
Social Security can help smooth the paperwork
The Social Security program treats all workers - men and women - exactly the same in terms of the benefits they can receive.
But women may want to familiarize themselves with what the program means to them in their particular circumstances. Understanding the benefits may mean the difference between living more comfortably vs. just getting by in retirement.
Despite all the snow and bitter cold, springtime in Minnesota is just ahead, really! The time of floods, muddy yards, reconnecting with neighbors, throwin' around the old baseball, and preparing for PROM. Springtime is the time when teens begin to drive more and are involved in activities like PROM which often involve illegal alcohol use and driving. Spring begins the time of year traffic experts have designated the '100 deadliest days' for teens. Year-round nearly every 7 days in Minnesota a teen driver dies in an auto wreck. I have written about this each spring and do so again due to the importance of this issue.
Great news for the Northeast Metro! MNDOT recently notified us that the "Managed lanes" designated for I-694 between Rice Street and Lexington would now be scheduled for construction as extra lanes without restriction.
Hold on to your hats. The 2014 Legislative Session is off and running at a fast clip. Over the next three months we will be working on several issues that will shape the future of our state. I encourage you to engage in the process and follow the topics important to you and your families. Your opinion is important to me and I appreciate hearing constructive thoughts on any legislative topic.
If you grew up in the 1950's and 60's you probably remember watching the 'Our Gang' comedies from the 1930's in which Spanky, Alfalfa, and Buckwheat play hooky from school and are chased by the truant officer. That was funny but there is nothing funny about truancy. It is a major problem in many of our schools and results in a significant waste of educational resources and your tax paying dollars.
Tax time is tough, there's no question about it, but it's even more challenging when you're self-employed and trying to deal with the sometimes confusing rules and recordkeeping that can go hand in hand with running your own show. The Minnesota Society of CPAs (MNCPA) answers some of the most frequent questions about taxes and self-employment and offers tips that can help you lower your tax bill.
I was honored to be invited to attend a recent event at the Woodbury/Peaceful Grove United Methodist Church, which promised to be a discussion about "bullying prevention legislation."
Going in, I knew it would be a community gathering and that there would be speakers sharing their stories of having experienced bullying, along with a question and answer period. I was invited to make a few remarks, and I planned to give an update on where the Safe & Supportive Schools Act stands in the legislative process, as well as make a few points about what's included in the bill. There's been a lot of confusion, and I've been surprised by constituents who have expressed concerns about things that aren't actually included in the bill. This was the time to clarify any misunderstandings.
Over the past several years, the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) has been working to decrease the exposure to perfluorochemicals (PFCs) in the East Metro. Red flags were raised after studies of PFCs in animals found associated health effects. In the mid-2000s, the MDH found that some public and private drinking water sources in the East Metro were polluted with PFCs as well. Shortly after,steps were taken to reduce the risk.

The stage is hidden by a white scrim on all four sides – the audience is restless. We've been waiting for almost an hour, expecting opening acts which never materialized.
Finally the lights go out – except for the ones onstage. The curtain becomes a screen, dizzying abstract shapes floating around as the music starts. Sigur Rós' frontman, Jónsi Birgisson, begins with Yfirborð, immediately crashing his bow down on the guitar in his signature style. The curtain is still up, but now things are taking a distinctly different turn – the shapes are still barely intelligible, but there is the unmistakable feeling that we are witnessing art as they move, synchronized with the music. Circles and close-ups of iron filings and things moving in liquid mingle with definite human movement in a bizarre and beautiful dance.
April 1st may have passed and but there are always fools afoot. Here are some local music recommendations for those who want to get in April's foolish spirit.
1. Mod Gun
Last year, Mod Gun released their album "Fools". Gritty, unique punk rock with lyrics you actually want to listen to. This band has everything going for it. Download their releases from Bandcamp. While you're there, check out their song Clover – perfect for your spring rock collection. Catch them live at O'Brien's in Allston on April 17 or May 24th.
As you probably know, WMFO is a non-commercial volunteer run station. We do a donations drive every year to help us keep the station running with awesome and quirky programming from students and community members. This year as part of our ongoing effort to update and upgrade, we got tech savvy and created apps for both android and iPhone so you can stream WMFO on the go. To help us keep improving you can head over to our donations site. Below the jump take a look at this year's awesome donations rewards.
Three Toed Sloth was founded in the early 90's by musicians from The Upstarts and Lamas, all influenced by bands like Boston and the Rolling Stones. The band, known for their great songwriting and their twist on cover songs, will be this week's guest on A Crash Course for the Ravers. They packed Northshore clubs for many years, gaining cult status in the area. These days the band has Country rock in their blood. Don't miss Three Toed Sloth on WMFO this Saturday at 1:00 pm.
As a fan of local businesses and music stores, I would like to say that I am a consistent visitor of Newbury Comics. I don't always go there to browse the back catalogue or search for new artists, but I always make it my stop when I try to pick up new music in physical form. The other day I found myself in the Faneuil Hall area and thought I'd pop into the Newbury Comics to pass some time. What I found was simultaneously jarring, discouraging, and regretfully understandable.
Wednesday night Alen of Dale will play live in Studio Dee on WMFO's On The Town with Mikey Dee. Join us for a night of fun Americana/rock. The band has a new CD available for download on bandcamp. We always have a chat with the band post-performance, so stick around after they're done playing. You never know what will be discussed on On The Town. Come check it out on Wednesdays from nine to midnight.
The London-bred five-piece band Citizens!, has been compared to Franz Ferdinand. In fact the producer behind the band's music, Alex Kapranos, also worked with Franz Ferdinand as well as David Bowie. But Citizens! have worked hard to cultivate their own, unique sound. Their debut album, "Here We Are," was released in May of 2012, with several songs on it garnering huge critical acclaim – notably, poppy number "True Romance," which is difficult not to dance to. They're touring North America right now, and I had a chat with vocalist Tom Burke while they were in Boston on March 5th playing Brighton Music Hall. You can check their tour schedule here.
It's exam season folks so let's get straight to the chase. Today the rapper Katie Got Bandz dropped a new video for "Pop Out" a song off her upcoming release Drillary Clinton. So its new and clearly it is notable because did you look at that album title??? But for real, I'm excited about this track and it is notable for other reasons. So far, Katie is best known for rolling with Chief Keef's crew in the Chicago rap scene. Recently though, she's started gaining attention on her own. There is even an EDM track by Los Angeles producer Carnage, devoted to the rapper's signature "Katieeee" drop.
Think about the first recorded sound you can remember. Think about when it was recorded. Try to recall what format it was in. Could you play it today if you needed to? Could you even find it?
This month the Library of Congress released it's long awaited and congressionally mandated National Recording Preservation Plan. It provides the blueprint for the public and private sector to work together in saving America's recorded sound heritage. It takes on issues from preservation infrastructure (how are we storing this stuff?) and access to education and policy.
In the beginning, Iron & Wine was a one man outfit. Sam Beam made intimate folk albums with nothing but an acoustic guitar, whispery vocals, and a prodigious beard. He stirred hearts with his gentle songs about love, god, and family, all softly tinged with a southern sensibility. Then long before indie folk went the way of top 40, Beam changed his sound entirely. With the 2007 release The Shepherd's Dog, Iron & Wine went electric, shifting to a full band with a robust and fanciful sound. Beam surprised fans again in 2011 when he expanded Iron & Wine even more to include a full brass section. The album, Kiss Each Other Clean, was far funkier than folky.

Christ...I cant even do anything past medium on GH2....that'd be epic to watch someone do though

Bloody Hell is all I can say, I struggle at the best of times on Medium on GH2 must send that to my mate who is a GH2 whiz!
I've been busy breaking keyboards with FretsOnFire the added advantage being that people can tab out their own songs for it and make them available very easily... It's had a DragonForce one and other ridiculously fast tracks for a while, and yes, it is finger breaking tastic :O
I'm extremely excited for this one. I got up to expert but could not master it I've seen kids half my age not even wince on Six on Expert and that song is bad ass!
I can do a lot of stuff in Expert on GH / GH2, music games are my speciality
