Johnny Marr
The legendary guitarist chats about growing up in the public eye, how to not be an asshole in the world of rock'n'roll, and his first proper solo LP, The Messenger.

On February 27, Johnny Marr will be honored with British rock bible NME's highest title: Godlike Genius. It's a designation typically awarded to entire legacy bands like the Cure, the Clash, and U2, or individual frontmen with oversized public personas, like Ozzy Osbourne, or Oasis' Noel Gallagher. But Marr abides by the rules of a different sort of rock'n'roll handbook, one that favors a calm and clear-headed vision and studious adaptability over bold statements or over-the-top showmanship. He's long operated patiently and pointedly from the wings of various acts, beginning with the Smiths, who broke up 1987, and later as a guitarist alongside anyone from the Pretenders and Modest Mouse to the Cribs or his own band, the Healers. And throughout each incarnation, he's done an unusually respectable job of squaring his fame and talent with the tenets of basic human decency. He almost seems motivated by a pathological desire to not be an asshole.
Even now, as he gears up for the release of his first-ever proper solo record, the politically charged The Messenger, he refuses to adopt the mindset of someone seeking personal glory. When we meet late one morning in the lobby of The Dream Hotel in downtown Manhattan to chat about his new record, he explains that as a solo artist, he's consciously thinking about what his fans want for the first time in his career. Marr is a youthful but wise 49, and his austere look-- raven-like spiky hair and pale skin, a slim-fitted sweater and skinny rock'n'roll-dude black pants-- contrasts a warm and conversational tone. Fittingly, The Messenger, a loosely constructed tale of British identity, is a decidedly populist record. The album hosts a traditional Brit-rock sound with big, clean hooks that showcase the metallic guitar jangle that cemented his name in the ranks of important guitarists nearly 30 years ago. Marr's name stands by itself on the cover, but The Messenger invites everyone in to share the spotlight.
"It's not in my nature to think that success as a musician
makes you any different from anybody else."
Pitchfork: You've aged gracefully in the world of rock'n'roll and handled your own legacy better than many musicians. Have you been conscious of your reputation all along?
Johnny Marr: I just try not to be a dick-- and I don't always get it right. But I have friends who would call me out if I was being an ass. Growing up in public is a test, and not many people know how to do it. Coming from a working-class background, where my father did manual labor, was a good grounding; I was obsessed with getting a job or getting out of the house at 15.
And I met my manager when I was 17, when I didn't have enough money to buy a set of guitar strings. There are not very many people who are looking out for you and being in business with you when you're at that stage. And it's not in my nature to think that success as a musician makes you any different from anybody else. I've also been with the same girl, Angie, since I was 15.
Pitchfork: How has that relationship impacted your career?
JM: Navigating with a partner makes it half as difficult. We keep each other in check. It's not like she was ever a quiet little wifey wife behind the scenes. She's exactly like me. She's very smart. We're very lucky that we've always wanted the same things. She loves guitar music, she loves important records, and our lives are about records and shows and great bands.
Pitchfork: You've talked about the nobility of being a sideman as opposed to a frontman. Did you have to surrender any personal values to make solo album?
JM: No. Those considerations are from about 25 years ago, to be honest. Now, I'm a dad, I'm an adult. I've been solo for 25 years; I've been in other people's groups but I'm solo [in a broader sense]. I stopped comparing myself to other people's maps when I was maybe 24, really. The trajectory that I've gone on is not one that I can compare with anybody else.
When you're young, you obviously have people you look up to. People like Andrew Oldham and Nile Rodgers inspired me then, and they inspire me now. But at some point, you start to try to be the best you can be and you're not copying anybody else. I'm just doing it in public, and my work needs to reflect that as well.
Pitchfork: Why did you choose to record a solo album at this point in your career?
JM: The ideas wouldn't go away, and the overriding theme of the whole thing-- it's about Britain and living in cities in Europe-- just kept building and building. I haven't been walking around for years with some burning desire to do a solo record. If I had, maybe I'd have made a record that was experimental. Usually, the idea of a solo record is to get some weird stuff out of your system, but I don't think like that. I wasn't interested in making something that was a hard listen-- maybe I'll get around to that some other time. I wanted it to sound effortless, not like I was trying to reinvent the wheel.
Pitchfork: You've been in so many bands throughout your career-- where does this record fit in? Do you see it appealing to a particular set of fans?
JM: If people who've stuck with me over the years like it, I'm totally fine. Earlier in my career, fans weren't a big consideration for me. In the earlier part of the 90s, I was really hell-bent on discovering how new technology works and how to make records entirely without a producer, which isn't necessarily what fans wanted. But I had to do it because I felt it was in my destiny or whatever. With this record, though, I want the fans to like it. I'm not interested in trying to have people who might like other kinds of music follow me. I don't want to please them.
Pitchfork: You lived in Portland for years, so why did you choose to record the album in Europe?
JM: If I had made my record in Portland, I would have leaned on my friends who were there to help me record it. And I just felt like I needed this to sound British, so back I went. The album connects to who I was when I was a teenager, and the young people who follow me. But it's not a nostalgia thing-- how I felt when I was younger is pretty much how I feel now.
I had a feeling about what I wanted to say, and I wasn't really qualified to discuss real things out of America because I didn't grow up there. The first song is called "The Right Thing Right" and it's about feeling like a complete target for consumerism; I thought if I was going make that kind of complaint in an exuberant, giving-the-finger kind of way, it should be from my own country. I don't believe that I've really got a right to say those things in someone else's country at the moment.
"The Right Thing Right":
Pitchfork: You spent a big chunk of your career living in Portland and even guest starred on "Portlandia" last year. Were you ever bothered by some of the sillier aspects of that city?
JM: It's a town that's so overtly vegan, where people can be artists whether they're good or not, and where the people who are working behind the bar might be a bass player in some kind of band. Those kind of things are better than being in a lot of cities! Some cities are really boring and straight. Don't get me wrong, I think "Portlandia" is really funny, and quite brilliant, but I like to be in a city where I can hang out in Powell's Bookstore most nights and go out with my friends in a liberal, relaxed atmosphere. I wish more cities were like that.
I moved to Portland because Modest Mouse is there. I didn't necessarily mean to live there permanently, but I've got a really good feeling for it. The sensibility there really suits me. I happened to have grown up in Manchester, a city that was a pretty cool place to be a musician. It's close to Portland in a lot of ways.
Pitchfork: The song "I Want the Heartbeat" sounds like an indictment of modern technology. Is that accurate?
JM: No, that song's more of a surreal story about how we fetishize our technology. I just started to wonder about the ultimate machine to have a relationship with, and I came up with a story about a guy who wins the lottery and swaps his wife for a heart-rate machine, one of the big ones they have in hospitals. Then he has a romantic relationship with the machine-- he gets his kicks, erotically and otherwise, by slowing his heart beat through the machine.
Pitchfork: How would you describe your relationship with the internet and modern technology?
JM: It's pretty strong; I'm absolutely not above it. Most of it's silly business, but then at the same time, there are positives. For instance, our government got very, very close to selling off huge parts of the British countryside, and that was stopped because of an internet campaign. That was amazing to me. That incident alone is worth nearly all the bad shit that the internet brings. It's all about choice, and the internet can ultimately mean freedom.
We're in a society where no one's putting a gun to your head and making you use your phone, but some people start to crack. "I Want the Heartbeat" is about the downside of it. People can and do break up friendships and relationships because of the internet, and that can't be good. You have to find a balance. You can't let it be the boss of you.

Pitchfork: What's your engagement with contemporary music like these days?
JM: I really like Howler and an American band on Sub Pop called Jaill. There will always be new bands that I like, it's always been that way. I still go out to shows. One thing I don't like now is this idea that all singing needs to be expressed at maximum volume with so much bullshit sentimentality-- it's pervading regular pop music.
Pitchfork: Define "regular pop music."
JM: Anything that's ever gotten on the charts as a result of "American Idol" or "The X Factor" in the UK. It's born out of karaoke culture. It's been a long time coming, but it's absolutely affected radio. Now chart music is a genre all of its own and it's slipped away from what I understand pop music as. It's pretty difficult to take; it clogs up the airwaves.
Occasionally, a great band would come along, like Blondie or OutKast who could be pop and bring interesting ideas into the mainstream at the same time. That's now gone, because of this weird mutation of pop, rap, R&B, bad rave, and supposedly soulful singing on top of it. That's my peeve. I don't really care what music's made on-- I love guitars, but I'm fine with great electronic music. I also find this kind of folk with guys in Wellington boots and washboards not good to listen to. That music is one step away from barn dancing as far as I'm concerned. Anyone under the age of 60 should not be wearing Wellington boots on stage.

No fun anymore. Never was any good. Too many bridges burned. Too many arguments that shouldn't have been. Too much booze. Too much anger, and too often directed at people who did nothing to deserve. Too much in my own sandbox. Choking on the grit. Too many castles I'll never finish and better that they weren't built or even imagined in the first place. Too much wait. Too much waste. Too much, too much, too much.
And too old.
And no longer a point in playing.
I am sorry for wasting your time. I shall do so no longer.
Good night.
Good luck.
Live well.

It must needs be divined for us, whether we are to say that the Procreative Instinct is descendant from the Survival Instinct, or if, instead, the Procreative Instinct is first and the Survival Instinct secondary. Whether it is in pursuit of tomorrow that we fuck like dogs, or in pursuit of the noblest organ that we retain for tomorrow.
And, in either case, what madness is it to continue in one without the other?
By Darwin's logic, it is the will of the species, the greater will than the individual, that demands the pursuit of propagation. But, then, why age? Why the dimming of the faculties and the slowing of movement? If the mass of the species is the point, then why the needle-tight torture of the individual? What then, the evolutionary purpose of all this boredom? The graceless slur that is life, what has this to do with my genetic virtue? It existed once, I can only believe, why does the meaning in my seed exist no longer? Have I, in my eagerness to consume these cancers, dimmed it? Would my children now be a race of beasts?
And would they, in being so ordained as animals and not men, do any different than I have been?
Then one finds, it is the driving lash of survival that demands we force our genetic markers into others. It is so that my face may be seen tomorrow that I seek its preservation beyond my physical and temporal limits. So I am driven till foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog in pursuit of flesh or, failing that, to maintain an eternity in some other way.
Some other way.
Art. Literature. Nations. Architecture.
What a hideous menagerie of words.
The once genius who received just 300 francs to put bread on the table, and now his useless parchments are exchanged by rich men, the same eternally rich men who have eternally allowed genius to starve.
Art is nothing more than the hypocritical obsession of names. There are none who glorify Kafka, only their own interpretation of "aboutness." Only their own politics. Only their reading and their references, as if trampling could be compared then with gardening. Van Gogh and his flowers, uncared for in an attic until they are officially rendered acceptable by critical opinion, and his name is uttered like the tolling of the bell, the bell of bourgeois worship.
And what is the tone of this bell? This bell, whom does it exalt?
Not my name. Not his name. Only the name of current ownership. The name of the adoptive father, that will continue after the planted seeds are lost. The name on the bill of sale, that will endure forever. The name of a bitch's lie. Had I sense of future, it would all have been burnt. It could all still be burnt, but then what of tomorrow? If there isn't tomorrow, then what else is there? If there is, then what profit when everything will be held in another's power and for his glory?
There are nothing but these meaningless names and appearances.
Then, these instincts are worth nothing.
Now, nothing but this bitter spilling of beer.
Until there is no dignity left in it.
"Man delights me not. No, nor Woman neither."
"Nor women neither."

89w, 4dIn Which Fiddlebottoms Has Become a Decadent18 comments · 298 views
I have been known to preach politics slightly left of the aisle (provided that said aisle is through Noam Chomsky's living room, and why shouldn't it be?), so I feel it only fitting that I make a confession, for I have become a Decadent.
It was upon a couple days ago where I and a supple acquaintance came into possession of a windfall totalling not a cent less than $500 through the exercise of principles most in keeping with capitalism as extolled by such late 20th century philosophers as Ronald Reagan and Christopher George Latore Wallace. Upon the application of democratic process, we arrived at the conclusion that it would be unfitting to despoil any pure or natural cause with money so obtained, and rather that the funds should be purged in a more unnatural bent.
Our first venture was to that hallmark of the modern suburb, Jacques Pennè. Venturing within, we espied and commandeered a shopping cart, a vessel which neither of us had found ourselves within or behind since the fallow, callow years of youth. It was I who, perhaps out of guilt, first declared the feeling of bourgeois sliding over us in a thick, molasses-like coating. It was but a few moments into comparing the relative merits of polo and buttoned shirts that we were giggling and babbling in French. Or, rather to say, as close as either of us could remember from our collective history and educations. Fortunately, there are a great many things within this fallen land which can be described as "beaucoup." "Je suis tout le monde," first posited by my most supple acquaintance, also seemed a wonderful statement of non-entity.
Yet, our enjoyment was not entirely derived from ourselves, for this particular outlet was home to a startling variety of white people. At times we simply stared in awe at their natural gravitation to this location as if the world were but a plane and discounts of absurdly overpriced bits of cloth a depression in it. It was all we could do not to withdraw a camera and begin photographing these magnificent creatures in their natural environment.
Of course, as any man of the world will tell you, the principle purpose in spying majestic creatures in their natural habitat is to piss them off. Whether by shooting them, polluting their environment, industrializing them, or pushing a shopping cart into their path. The shopping itself soon became a secondary concern as we glutted ourselves upon the added space which the shopping cart allowed us to occupy. If you've never pushed a shopping cart inside a relatively crowded store, I highly recommend it. Cutting off others and generally compounding their misery of existence was such a source of joy to us that we could scarcely focus on actually purchasing anything and wasted a fabulous quantity of both time and space.
So, taken were we with the nature of the cart's artifice, that even though the trip had been made on foot, we carried the cart all the way out to the furthest collection station in the parking lot, just for the privilege of knowing another human being would be paid to collect our debris and return it to its original placement for future use.
It is sadly true that even the youth were not spared from our capitalist corruption, as it was that I paid a child a quarter to dance for me and my supple acquaintance. It was not the erotic sort of dancing that Natalie Portman performed in The Professional, but the mindless arm-waving and cries of "doo-doo-doo-doo" were no doubt a heavy influence upon the creature. She will certainly be selling her body upon the street within a week, or so my newly found conservative instincts told me.
After discarding the child back unto her mother, by which one means I and my supple acquaintance hauled ass when the mother appeared and asked what we were doing with her chile, we proceeded to the liquor store, where eschewing our usual purchase of brands that come in large jugs bearing labels like "Aristocrat," regardless of the contents contained therein, we made to purchase instead, an 18 year aged bottle of Glennfiddich. Legal to fuck, yet not legal to drink itself. Such are the ironies of the world when one is a $90 bottle of scotch.
It was at this point that we experienced a breakdown of the democratic process, the inevitable fate of any two-party system. The question at hand was whether it was better for the bounty of our booty to be consumed directly from the bottle, or mixed with the remains of a bottle of pepsi. My supple acquaintance rather forcefully put forth that the mixing was more important, and that drinking directly from the bottle was "wrong," it lacked the open heresy of Pepsi.
I, however, could not be dissuaded from my insistence that to drink directly from the bottle would be not just wrong, but reminiscent of a monkey or fallen revolutionary who has broken into his king's stores. More to the point, I have been sworn to the path of clear-headed sobriety for some couple months, and wasn't about to waste my head-first dive off the wagon with mixed drinks.
The decision was eventually made that each should go their own way, and so did I did chug my portion. First of all, drinking directly from the bottle will burn your throat and stomach like a molotov cocktail from the heart of an anarchist mob. Scotch, as usual, being the most aggressive of the hard liquors, and putting even tequila's and vodka's within its own weight class to shame. Being able to repress your gag reflex is essential here. Even my fine self leaked a not insubstantial portion from his nose to dribble across the grimy floor like so much revolutionary blood spilled in vain.
As it fills out to swell your mouth, the taste of apples barges into the front row with an aggression matched only by jackbooted imperialists pouring mace into the eyes of peaceful resistors. Sherry is there too, lining the edges of your cheeks like so many spectators, easily forgotten the moment they've passed.
You horsefuckers may never be able to taste Applejack's apple-flavored vagina, but from now on I shall imagine this marriage of pain, apples, pine bark and sherry as being the next best thing. After swallowing it shoots through your intestines with more intensity than is usual for a whisky, burning all the way until it finds your colon and demands exit an hour later. There's a dash of cinnamony-sweetness, but you won't taste that unless you exhale through your nose after drinking a large quantity.
Mixed with Pepsi it tastes like, "Pepsi with some dirt in it." Proving, once again, that I am a genius and the expert at everything because you donotmixscotchitispointlessomigodyoustupidwoman.
UPDATE: After wasting money, I suddenly don't have any! Oh, woe is me! Please donate to support my ridiculous lifestyle.
Good thing the store's open late. For some reason, I just realized how much I need a Friendship Express
Nope, sorry Twilight. There is no escape. History is going to repeat itself now, and you're just going to have to live with it.
I'm going to go back to crying now.
Thanks. A bunch of personal stuff has been going on this week, so I didn't have editing time for this one.
Also, you're the best critic on repetitions, so was Sombra's too much? I wanted to give him a verbal tic (like "once more"), but couldn't decide on one. Right now, he just gets a new phrase every couple paragraphs and runs it into the ground.
Sombra gets a 1% royalty on all sales of the Friendship Express. Please purchase one, he needs to buy the rest of his metal shirt.
>>1625964 Glad I can help
Nah, Sombra was fine
Metal shirt? I'll buy two, that's a serious matter
My tail of woe startedcaught another
Ok, now that' I've read this story, allow me to revise my previous statement.
I'm IN love with you, Fiddlebottoms.
Even when you're writing comedic parodies, you still have that touch of a madman's jester. I applaud you, Champagne of Shame.
Oh so that's what happened to treetrunks. this is now my combined MLP adventure time head-cannon.
When I started writing this, the first thing I thought of was "Zero," (specifically, the part about "I'm in love with my sadness. Bullshit fakers, enchanted kingdoms") for the Crystal Ponies. But the story is mostly about Sombra, and I think the melodramatic martyrdom of "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" fits him better.
Plus, "Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage," is just so ...
I'm IN love with you, Fiddlebottoms.
No gay stuff, though. Well, unless you want to.
Crystal Ponies ... Crystal Dimension. Made sense to me.
I'd have to side with the Crystal Ponies on Tree Trunks, though. Episodes with her are like seeing your grandmother in a strip club.
But Tonight Tonight... so melodic.
XYU has dat unbridled rage.
1979 is pretty decent too. The whole album... gold.
And maybe some gay stuff. But only a little.
"Oooh, Spike," she called upstairs, "there's a visitor requesting the savior of the Crystal Empire!"
that was funny.
WINDEX SMEARS!! HAAAAHAHAHAHAHAA-*cough cough- weeze* *inhale* HAAAHAHAHAA!!!
I like this story a whole lot. Have a dollar.
I don't have a dollar, go find one.
Sorry Twilight, your plan won't work because Spike is underage so he can't buy the beer.
This was very funny, witty, and deserving of a fourth adjective to describe it.
Some spiteful part of her brain smiled at the idea that, even though he was immortalized in stain glass, he still slept less than inch from the floor.
I believe the term you're looking for is "stained glass". "Stain glass" isn't a valid phrase that I'm aware of.
Don't these bozos have a princess now?
Man I really need a Friendship Express...
The mopey, personality-less, and thoroughly disappointing Crystal Ponies deserve to be made fun of, them and their tiny ewes. Have a fave and upvote.
Haha. The ending made me laugh a lot. Go, Spike! Go save the Crystal Empire again!
Well.... Except that there was no friendship express back then (new invention, ya know?), seems about right.
Wait... There is other solution too.

Oh... That would be bad thing to do, right? And bad things are done by Sombra and the like.

After a successful launch at last year's Painting & Decorating Show, Dunlop, specialist manufacturer of tile adhesives, grouts, finishing and ancillary products, is back this year with an exciting new addition to its Pro Décor range! The Dunlop Flexible Acrylic Filler is a gunnable jointing filler for use in caulking applications such as skirting boards […]
Dunlop launches new Trade Zone for tradesmen
Specialist manufacturer of adhesives, grouts, finishing and ancillary products, Dunlop Adhesives, has this month announced the launch of its Trade Zone. A site specifically designed for tradesmen, the new initiative allows users to engage in a range of online tools and facilities to help keep them on top of their game and in the know.
- Trade Zone, which is now live, includes a unique 'Job Build' tool, where tradesmen can enter job specification details and the tool will generate product recommendations, to support tradesmen from start to finish
- Furthermore, the tool can produce a quote on how much product is required for the job in hand and where their local stockist is
- The new trade site also includes Dunlop's series of 'How to' guides, Top Ten Tiling Tips and the infamous Professor Dunlop's Brainbox, to encourage tradesmen to pass on their experiences and suggestions to help the specialist manufacturer develop new products and solutions for the general building trade
- What's more, registrants to the website will all be entered in a free prize draw to be in with a chance of winning an iPod Touch
- To support the launch of the new initiative, Dunlop has produced an on-pack promotion highlighting its iPod Touch giveaway, and is also running a series of advertisements and promoting the site through social media platforms and PR
Debi Bailey, Brand Manager of Dunlop Adhesives, said:
We're really excited to have launched this new initiative and hope that builders and tradesmen alike will find it a useful and invaluable tool. The Job Build tool is a great addition to the site to further aid and advise tradesmen on what products to use for each job in hand.
She continued: We're planning on expanding the site even further over the coming months, to include a dedicated e-learning portal where tradesmen can undertake training by tiling locations, including kitchens and bathrooms, by tile types, and even by background surfaces. Tradesmen will be able to complete sections at their leisure, whilst receiving a certification of competence at the end.

Oak Creek — Safety remains the Oak Creek-Franklin School District's top priority as it prepares to advance its capital improvement project recommendations for the 2014-15 school year.
The School Board, in its committee discussion on Monday, considered the proposed list of 21 recommended projects totaling nearly $1.4 million. The list follows the five-year facilities plan developed during the 2010-11 school year, Superintendent Sara Burmeister explained, while taking into account the input of all building administrators and custodians.
Burmeister reminded the board that project recommendations are prioritized based on addressing safety and security first; then curriculum issues; and lastly, utility and maintenance efficiencies.
New entrances
With that in mind, the district is aiming to reconfigure the front entrance and main office areas of both Carollton Elementary and Cedar Hills Elementary to provide a more secure entry to the buildings in time for the start of next school year. The cost is estimated at $271,000 between the two buildings.
Buildings and Grounds Manager Larry Savage said district staff, along with Eppstein Uhen Architects and VJS Construction Services, looked at those areas to determine how to best redesign them.
Although those projects are a high priority for the district, they are simply too disruptive to complete while school is in session and must be done over the summer, Savage said. The goal is to finish them before registration for the 2014-15 school year.
Parking lot, other upgrades
Other safety and security upgrades planned for the year ahead include updating the fire alarm system at Cedar Hills, at a cost of about $100,000; replacing the PA systems at Carollton, Cedar Hills and West Middle School, about $45,000; installing additional emergency lighting at Carollton, about $15,000; and extending the sidewalk on the west side of the bus drop-off/pick-up parking lots at East Middle School, at an estimated cost of $15,900.
Board Member Sheryl Cerniglia questioned whether a sidewalk would be necessary at East Middle School and suggested that perhaps the buses could simply be moved to address boarding issues. Although that possibility was considered, along with other options, Savage and Burmeister agreed it would not be feasible.
Topping the recommended projects list in terms of cost is the proposed completion of the second phase of multi-year parking lot rehabilitation projects at both the high school, at a cost of nearly $380,000, and West Middle School, at a cost of about $228,000.
"Those two projects will remain on my recommended list until they're completed, before we move on to another parking lot or parking lots in the district," Savage said.
Coming in on budget
While the projected total for all 2014-15 projects exceeds the $1.2 million typically budgeted for capital improvements each year, the use of about $166,000 in tax-incremental financing dollars the district received this year will bring the total cost down to about that amount, Burmeister said.
The board expects to act on the complete list of recommendations at its next meeting.
Following its decision, Savage will begin putting out bids for and scheduling the projects, which will be completed throughout the 2014-15 school year.
WHAT: School Board to act on recommended 2014-15 capital improvement projects.
WHEN: 6 p.m. March 10
WHERE: District office, 7630 S. 10th St.

Tessa Virtue, Scott Moir likely to know future later this summer
Mar 22, 2014, 8:52 PM EST
2010 Olympic ice dance champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir will likely know if they'll keep skating competitively in the next six months.
"It's a lot of work to get back to another Olympics and you know, you really have to have that fire," Moir said, according to CTV. "It's something that takes time to figure out and I think we'll know later on this summer."
The Canadians Virtue and Moir took silver behind Americans Meryl Davis and Charlie White in Sochi.
Neither the Canadians nor the Americans are competing at the World Championships in Saitama, Japan, next week.
Moir has said he and Virtue hope to "find some clarity" while touring and doing ice shows this spring.

I Just Work Here: Best to be on the ball during — and after — the interview
It doesn't matter whether we're employed or unemployed. The modern working world shifts swiftly and unexpectedly. One moment we're secure, the next we're pounding the pavement, so keeping our minds tuned to job search best practices is a wise and cheap insurance policy.
I recently came across a list of sensible job interview tips by Ford Myers, a career coach and author of "Get the Job You Want, Even When No One's Hiring."
(Those of you who already have a job should think about this advice in terms of a meeting with your boss, whether it's an annual review or just a chat about an idea you would like to pursue. It's as applicable to that as it is to a job interview.)
"Let's say the interview goes really well," Myers said. "What do I want to get out of it? What is my objective? Most people say, 'I just hope I come out of it alive.' That's not good enough."
Myers suggests you think of yourself less as a job candidate and more as a consultant. Ask probing questions during the initial interview: "What are the challenges, what are the needs, what are the company's biggest problems, what have they tried, what has worked or not worked. When you come back for the second interview, you're going to walk in with a presentation which is based on the notes you took and everything you learned at the first interview."
"Whether you're working in a McDonald's or as CEO of a company, you want to have these skills and be thinking about these things," Myers said. "It's not about job search; it's about career management. Nobody's going to manage your career for you."

Comment on Japan's JS Have Bags of Style by Chen-04:
Except the perpetrator was a girl… right?
Chen-04 made other comments on this post:
- Japan's JS Have Bags of Style:
Yeah, apparently society trained them well.
- Japan's JS Have Bags of Style:
Woah, easy there. Rumor has it that all young guys think about sex all day. Don't turn them into pedophiles that easily!
- Japan's JS Have Bags of Style:
Human brain is trained to recognize patterns. It's why we can get boners from anime porn. If you can't, somethings wrong with your brain.
- Japan's JS Have Bags of Style:
If they were pedos, there wouldn't be any need to blame the kids/parents. Pedos like kids in a sexual way, by definition. Doesn't matter what they wear. In fact, real pedos very well may be turned off by these kind of clothes, who knows.
- Japan's JS Have Bags of Style:
If the internet helps educating people, you didn't use it enough.
Recent comments by Chen-04:
- Top 20 Girls You'd Want To Sit Next To In Class:
Not the worst, no. This one had pictures! All those lists are good for is to disagree with each other in the comment section anyway. Thus this one does a wonderful job at being a list.
- Natsuiro High School "Open World Voyeur Simulator":
5 years from now politicians will blame this game for all the voyeurs in Japan.
- Shingeki no Kyojin Movie Cast Revealed:
No, every single Japanese live-action movie is awful. They just can't act for their lives. The only thing they're good at is voice acting.
- Ghost in the Shell FPS Trailer Revealed:
Haven't they ruined this franchise enough already?
- Shingeki no Kyojin Movie Cast Revealed:
Oh godammit… won't Japan ever learn that they suck at live-action movies?!

Where taxi drivers dine
We visit the restaurants that fuel the city's cab drivers Discuss this article
- Picture 1 of 2
There are 17,278 registered RTA taxi drivers in Dubai. That's 17,278 people dedicated (some more than others, admittedly) to keeping the city moving, ferrying passengers to and fro, and running the 14-lane gauntlet that is Sheikh Zayed Road day in, day out.
Most of the city's cabbies hail from Pakistan (35 per cent) and India (25 per cent), as well as Bangladesh, Nepal, Ethiopia and Sudan. Such colourful cultural diversity is catered for by the city's equally diverse restaurant scene, which was enough of a reason for me to spend several lunch hours hopping into a cab and joining whoever picked me up for a bite to eat.
Adukkala Restaurant
I was alerted to the whereabouts of this restaurant by a Keralan colleague, who assured me it was a favourite among taxi drivers who hail from this southern Indian state (there's a high chance that an Indian taxi
driver will come from Kerala). Since I'm in the area anyway, I take his word for it and drop by to find the restaurant devoid of customers at noon.
'Do taxi drivers come here for lunch?' I ask the manager, a thick-set man with an equally thick moustache. 'Yes!' he says with a laugh. 'Many come here for lunch!' I look around to double check and am disappointed that the restaurant is still empty. 'Ha!' he says, eyeing my expression, 'they come later!'
I take a table next to a mural depicting snapshots of what must be home for many customers – house boats, elephants and colourfully clad holy men. The manager issues me a glass of red liquid that he implores me to drink. It's rasam, a hot drink spiced with dried chillis, coriander and mint leaves, and it's exceptionally good – much like liquid curry. I'm then served a glass of green liquid, aka 'pulissery' – a yoghurt-based drink flavoured with turmeric and yet more dried chillis. As I drain the last drops I look up to see a flurry of red ties walk through the door, one of which is marched over by the manager to prove that his restaurant is indeed a favourite with Keralan cabbies.
Rajesh introduces himself. He's been in Dubai for six years and eats
at Adukkala three times a day, every day. 'So you've eaten every meal here for the past six years?' I ask incredulously. 'Yes,' replies Rajesh with a smile. 'No!' rebukes the manager, 'we've only been open for a year and a half.' 'Yes,' nods Rajesh, still smiling.
I love thali, so I'm more than happy when I'm confronted with two trays – one laden with kotari bowls, each full of curry, the other lined with a banana leaf and a mound of motta (fat) rice, a fried sardine, lemon pickle and coconut chutney.
Rajesh talks me through each of the curries, from the sambar to the thoran (daal and coconut), yam and black chenna and koota curry, explaining in what order and how to eat them. There are no spoons or forks at Adukkala, so I'm forced to fumble through each offering with my right hand – a skill that I begin to master towards the end of the meal, although I still manage to make a wonderful mess (the trick, apparently, is pushing the rice-curry mix into your mouth with your thumb).
I'm not sure whether it's because I'm dining with Keralans or simply because the food is fantastic, but I daresay this is the best thali I've eaten in Dubai.

Joey Beltran returns to the UFC as a light heavyweight to take on James Te Huna at UFC on FUEL TV 4. Beltran takes the spot of Brandon Vera who was recently selected to meet Mauricio "Shogun" Rua in the main event of UFC on FOX 4.
The tough Beltran (14-7) compiled a 3-4 record while competing as a heavyweight with the UFC. During his last appearance inside the octagon Beltran would be knocked out by Lavar Johnson at UFC on FOX 2. Beltran would bounce back from that loss with a unanimous decision win over Anton Talamantes in April.
Te Huna (14-5) enters the bout a winner in eight of his last nine bouts. He has won three of his four fights with the UFC with each victory coming via knockout. In his most recent bout, Te Huna recorded a second round technical knockout of Aaron Rosa at UFC on FX 2.
UFC on FUEL TV 4 takes place on July 11th from the HP Pavilion in San Jose, California. The main event of the card features a pivotal middleweight clash between Mark Munoz and Chris Weidman.

Associated Press
AKSU, China (AP) -- Outside a mosque in China's restive west, a government-appointed Muslim cleric was dodging a foreign reporter's question about why young men of the Uighur ethnic minority don't have beards when one such youth interrupted.
"Why don't you just tell them the truth?" he shouted to the cleric under the nervous gaze of several police officers who had been tailing the reporters all day in the oasis city of Aksu. "It's because the government doesn't allow beards."
A plainclothes Uighur policeman swiftly rebuked the young man. "Be careful what you say," he warned.
The tense exchange provided a fleeting glimpse of both the extremes of China's restrictions on minority Uighurs (pronounced WEE'-gurs) and the resentment that simmers beneath the surface in their homeland. Such a mood pervades Xinjiang's south, a vast, mainly rural region that's become a key battleground in the ruling Communist Party's struggle to contain escalating ethnic violence that has killed at least a few hundred people over the past 18 months.
The personal matter of facial hair has taken on heavy political overtones in the Uighur heartland. Also proscribed are certain types of women's headscarves, veils and "jilbabs," loose, full-length garments worn in public. Such restrictions are not new but their enforcement has intensified this year in the wake of attacks Beijing has blamed on religious extremists.
In a recent sweep of Urumqi, the region's capital, authorities last week said they seized 1,265 hijab-type headscarves, 259 jilbabs and even clothes printed with Islamic star-and-crescent symbols. Officials also "rescued" 82 children from studying the Quran, the government said.
The prohibitions on Islamic attire and beards have attracted widespread criticism, with many experts saying such repression angers ordinary Uighurs and risks radicalizing them.
"It's a self-fulfilling prophecy, it's self-perpetuating. The more they crack down on it, the more people re-Islamize. This is a pattern we see all over the world," said Joanne Smith Finley, an expert on Uighurs at Britain's Newcastle University. "The Chinese state has created a growing terrorist threat where previously there was none. It has stimulated an Islamic renewal where there wouldn't necessarily have been one."
A major thrust of the yearlong crackdown on terrorism has been a campaign against religious extremism, with arrests of hundreds of people for watching videos apparently hailing terrorism or extremist ideology. But authorities also are targeting beards, veils and other symbols of religious piety in a campaign that creeps ever farther into Uighurs' daily lives despite official claims that the government respects religious freedom.
"At the moment, we face a very serious, intense and complex situation with fighting terrorism and maintaining stability," a party newspaper, the Xinjiang Daily, said in an edict to "front-line" minority cadres in late July. Officials, it said, must also act to control weddings without singing and dancing and funerals where there are no feasts -- referring to Uighur customs the government says Islamic conservatives have barred.
Young Uighur men are discouraged from keeping beards and those who have them are stopped at checkpoints and questioned. So are women who wear Muslim headscarves and veils that obscure their faces. Some public places such as hospitals bar such individuals from entering. Earlier this month, the northern Xinjiang city of Karamay announced that young men with beards and women in burkas or hijabs would not be allowed on public buses.
In the city of Aksu, Ma Yanfeng, the director of the city's foreign propaganda office, said the government was concerned that Uighurs were being unduly influenced by radical Islamic forces from overseas.
"It's because they have been incited by others to do so," Ma said, noting that traditional dress of Uighur women is multicolored. "Those clothes that are all black are a sign of influence from foreigners like in Turkey and have to do with extremist thinking."
Unlike in Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan or parts of South Asia, veils and abayas are relatively new to Uighurs in Xinjiang, only growing in popularity in recent decades, scholars say.
Uighur historically have used "ikat" textiles with bold patterns and brilliant colors, an aesthetic they share with Uzbeks, Tajiks and other Central Asian cultures. Contemporary Uighur women, especially those in cities, dress like other urbanites though they aren't likely to bare a lot of skin.
Uighurs have been adopting veils and beards in a shift toward more pious lives, partly as symbolic resistance to Chinese rule and partly out of a desire for the egalitarianism associated with Islam to mend social inequalities, said Smith Finley, the Newcastle expert who has studied Uighurs since 1991.

CNET editors choose the best 802.11ac networking devices, including wireless routers.
The hefty price aside, the Asus AC2400 RT-AC87U is the most complete 802.11ac router to date, capable of satisfying all your home networking needs.
For advanced and professional users, the Asus RT-AC68U Dual-band Wireless-AC1900 Gigabit Router is worth every penny thanks to its stellar performance, solid build, and bounty of useful features.
Despite a few minor shortcomings, the DIR-880L is still one of the best 802.11ac routers on the market.
The Netgear WNDR3800 N600 Wireless Dual-Band Gigabit Router makes an excellent router for any home.
So long as you're not a networking newbie, the Totolink A2004NS AC1200 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit Router is a good deal for those living in a small or medium home.
Unless you live in a very small home and need a color router to match, skip D-Link's latest DIR-818LW in favor of more powerful options.
The most important things to know when shopping for a new laptop, hybrid, or Windows tablet.
If you can afford the hefty price tag, the Linksys WRT1900AC Wi-Fi router is easily one of the best home routers on the market.
Despite the added features, the Amped Wireless High Power Wireless-N 600mW Gigabit Dual Band Router R20000G doesn't impress as much as the previous model, and hence fails to justify its higher price tag.
With top performance and friendly pricing, the Trendnet TEW-818DRU is a excellent choice for those wanting a robust home network.

Tasch talks up slow money in Portland
Send this to a friend
- Christina Williams
- Editor, Sustainable Business Oregon
Portlanders love their locally sourced, food so it's no surprise that Woody Tasch, the author of "Slow Money" and an advocate for investing in local food systems was well received when he took the stage at the ReVisioning Value conference Monday at the Gerding Theater.
Tasch, whose audacious goal is to convince 1 million Americans to invest 1 percent of their assets in the local food system, late last year launched The Soil Trust, a fundraising mechanism for pooling small contributions.
Tasch is also pursuing grants to help cover the expansion of his Berkeley, Calif.-based nonprofit organization to keep up with interest in the Slow Money movement from places such as Austin, Texas; Boston, Madison, Wis., Seattle, the Bay Area, Raleigh and Durham, N.C.; Santa Fe, N.M.; and Burlington, Vt.
But while these other regions have rallied to support their own, informal Slow Money chapters, nothing has popped up in Oregon so far.
This from the state whose land-use policies have fiercely guarded agricultural land, from the state whose young-farmer movement was profiled this week in the New York Times, and from a state where eating local is a form of religion.

In preparation for that, what follows in the posts leading up to the end of the year are excerpts from my own The Indelible Image.Vol. 2 that prepare us for that discussion. --------THE THOUGHT WORLDS OF THE OT AND NT, AND THE WAY FORWARD"When the author of the play steps out on the stage, the play is over."—C.S. Lewis"In us … [Read more...]
The Descendants— Trouble in Paradise
Ah the beauties of Hawaii and the ugliness of broken human relationships juxtaposed. Add to all that the problems of dealing with death when you don't really believe in life after death. Here is a story written by a Hawaiian about believable life on the islands. And also trouble in paradise.The Descendants is indeed a powerful movie, and a perfect vehicle for Kentucky 'homey' George Clooney to show his full dynamic range. Clooney plays a self-absorbed millionaire facing a major … [Read more...]
Remembering Jesus, The McIver Book— Part Seven
Scholarly books should not be evaluated on the basis of their length. A weighty tome may not be a useful one, just a verbose one. On the other hand, some short books are rich and rewarding and repay close study. Robert McIver's book is one of the latter sort of books.In the ninth chapter of this brief but important study the stress is on the significance of the fact that Jesus was a teacher. Indeed, some 56 times he is addressed as teacher or rabbi in the Gospels. Further, of the 55 … [Read more...]

It was a living oral tradition.Thus, when we come to Chapter 8 of McIver's … [Read more...]
Jesus Remembered, the McIver Book– Part Five
Human memory is episodic, and so are the Gospels. Personal event memories are especially that way, and they have distinctive features. They are intense memories of very specific events, and short periods of time, fully of sensory data and often irrelevant minor details, and often they do not have a larger narrative context, are not anchored by a timeline or even a description of geographical location. McIver calls such memories granular, relating specific moments and incidents. Here are his … [Read more...]
Remembering Jesus, the McIver Book– Part Four
The study of collective memory is very important for understanding early Christianity and its handling of its sacred traditions. This post must focus on that and related matters. Collective memory refers to memories shared by all members of the specified group based on shared experiences. One of the things that research into collective memory has shown is that the needs and interests of the present in part determine what is recalled, and what is deemed important about what is recalled. … [Read more...]
