A series of forest fires continue to blaze in the mountains outside Madrid forcing thousands of homes to be evacuated.
These are just the latest of some 4,000 forest fires that have besieged Spain this summer. A prolonged drought has exacerbated the problem by leaving woodlands bone dry. But some say cuts in the firefighting budget have played a role as well.
These latest blazes have left mountainsides charred black around several villages to the west of Madrid. Earlier this week, volunteers on the outskirts of one town tried to create a firewall by clearing brush.
One young man, armed with garden clippers, told a Spanish TV station that residents shouldn't have to make this sort of last ditch effort.
"Clearing the underbrush should be done before summer, by professionals," he said.
But because of budget cuts, there wasn't even a fire truck on stand-by in this area, despite the high risk of fires. The story has been similar across Spain this summer.
So far this year 350,000 acres of forest have gone up in smoke. That's three times more than last year.
In July, along the Spanish border with France near Girona, 45,000 acres burned. Four people died, including two tourists who tried to leap from a cliff into the sea to escape the flames. To control the fire Spain had to call on France and Andorra for extra water-carrying airplanes.
The Catalonia region's interior minister, Felip Puig, was on hand for the battle.
"The economic crisis across Spain and southern Europe means that governments simply can't pay for adequate safety services," he said.
Nevertheless he said, Catalonia was spending more this year than last on fire fighting. But since 2009, when Spain's economic crisis began to worsen, Catalonia, and Spain itself, have reduced firefighting budgets by nearly 20 percent.
Such cutbacks have led to protests by firefighters, including one in Barcelona this summer in which firemen briefly occupied the regional parliament, before police pushed them back.
The Spanish government insists the main culprit behind the fires has been a summer virtually without rain. It also points out that many of the worst blazes were deliberately set, further straining resources.
"It's been hard knitting together a comprehensive plan," Spain's environment minister, Miguel Arias Cañete, said earlier this month, "when you have just 70 fire-fighting planes. There have been days when we've had 19 fires burning at the same time."
All the more reason, environmentalists and firefighters say, not to slash forest protection budgets. The cost in the long run, they say, will always be higher.

... Except how to read.
Towards the end of The Great UD Adventure, Sally decided he knew more about HIV and the HIV research world than me. Granted, lots of people do know a hellovalot more about HIV research than me.
But Sal is not one of those people.
So like I did before, lets use Creationist Behavior as a learning opportunity!
I'm having problems accepting that viropoin capability was novel after emergence in humans in light of this paper:
Now, dont laugh at him. Reading is really hard for some people. Maybe he didnt notice the title of the paper he cited:
Scrambling of the amino acids within the transmembrane domain of Vpu results in a simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIVTM) that is less pathogenic for pig-tailed macaques.
To date, no studies have been performed to assess the role of this domain in virus pathogenesis in a macaque model of disease. Using a pathogenic molecular clone of simian human immunodeficiency virus (SHIVKU-1bMC33), we have generated a novel virus in which the transmembrane domain of the Vpu protein was scrambled but maintained hydrophobic in nature (SHIVTM), which presumably would disrupt any ion channel TM properties of this protein
Thus, these results show for the first time that the TM domain of Vpu contributes to the pathogenicity of SHIVKU-1bMC33 in pig-tailed macaques.
This paper would appear to weaken the claim that even if "Viroporin capabilities have not been found with SIVcpz Vpu", that they emerged brand spanking new in humans.
Thus, this would appear not to be an appropriate counter example to Behe's claims. The fact that one may not see a function in one strain does not imply that it emerged brand new in another strain. It is entirely possible this was a loss of fucntion, and with respect to the issue of this viroporin capability, it was a loss of function (if at all).
Speaking of which, were there even studies done on SIVcpz regarding scrambling of the TM domain? Can't very well find them if one doesn't even look for them.
Scrambling of the amino acids within the transmembrane domain of Vpu results in a simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIVTM) that is less pathogenic for pig-tailed macaques.
Thats less pathogenic, folks. Screwing with Vpu makes SHIVs less pathogenic.Maybe Sal doesnt know what a SHIV is. Hmm... That cant be possible, because the authors of that cited paper define their SHIV right in the intro:
The simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) is a chimeric virus that contains the tat, rev, vpu, and env genes in a genetic background of SIVmac239.The tat, rev, VPU, and env genes are from HIV-1. The remaining proteins come from SIVmac. Creating these chimeras is one way we can study AIDS in non-human primates. For instance, pig-tailed macaques cannot be infected with HIV-1, but if you exchange a few HIV genes with SIVmac genes, you can infect them and study AIDS at an organismal level!
And lo and behold, thats exactly what the authors did.
Our laboratory has been using a pathogenic simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV)/macaque model to examine the role of Vpu in disease. Using the pathogenic molecular clone SHIVKU1bMC33, we previously showed that an intact Vpu contributed to the CD4+ T cell loss that occurs during infection with the pathogenic SHIV and that disease in macaques only occurred if compensating amino acid substitutions occurred in the Env and Nef proteins. In order to study the role the TM plays in vivo to enhance pathogenesis, we constructed a mutant SHIV virus (SHIVTM) in which the TM domain of the Vpu protein was scrambled but kept hydrophobic as previously described. In this study, we have analyzed the in vitro replication of this virus and its ability to cause CD4+ T cell loss and disease in macaques. Our results indicate that SHIVTM was not as pathogenic to pig–tailed macaques as the parental SHIVKU1bMC33, indicating that the TM domain contributes in part to the rapid CD4+ T cell loss and disease onset caused by SHIVKU1bMC33.If you screw up the transmembrane region of HIV-1 Vpu, you get a less pathogenic virus that cant kill CD4 cells as efficiently. Thats what I said. So in addition to no experimental evidence for viroporin formation (see my essay references), this group found no genetic or biochemical reason to expect viroporin capabilities in SIVcpz. Thats also what I said.
You could have read my essay 100 times in the amount of time it took you to find that paper, Sal. Read. Read slowly. And then think reaaaal hard about whether you want to ask an HIV researcher a question, or whether you want to tell that HIV researcher you know more about her specialty than her. Save you some embarrassment in the future.

expanded metal for ceiling
Raised expanded metal is also known as standard expanded metal. Raised expanded metal is made by shearing and stretching the metal sheet with a set of die on a press, creating diamond shaped openings. The solid intersections of two strands are called bonds that lie on top of each other to form a raised effect. This adds additional strength and rigidity to the expanded metal, also provides directional skid-resistance surface. No material is lost in the manufacturing process, not like the perforated metal production, so it is a green engineered alternative in many projects.
Can never be unraveled.
High tensile strength.
Perfect finish.
Slip resistance or slip-proof.
It provides a screening effect, allowing light, sound, air and water to pass through.
A variety of patterns, sizes and colors available, ideal for decorative meshes.
Great versatility, stability.
expanded metal for ceiling
Flattened expanded metal is expanded in its normal way, which is the same as raised expanded metal. An additional process is by passing raised expanded metal through a cold rolled reducing mill and a leveler, leaving a flat also smooth surface similar to perforated metal.
The rolling process elongates about 5% the length of the sheet while the width remains the same. Flattened expanded metal possesses many properties, making it a very versatile product suitable for applications across many industries, such as commercial, automobile and agricultural.
Smooth surface won't hurt anyone.
Wear resistance.
Easy to install.
Low cost and free maintenance.
Wide range of applications.

Morning Five: 03.03.11 EditionPosted by jstevrtc on March 3rd, 2011
Jason Wright of the Deseret News sums up what he saw from the San Diego State students during last Saturday's BYU vs SDSU game, and is still none too happy about it. After reading his account, we had some questions of our own for him: how can you blame the crowd for your daughter hearing that often-used and ineffective two-syllable expletive chant (it's one word, by the way, Jason) after a bad call when it's your hand holding the remote? You shouldn't have had a problem changing the channel if this really was one of two games you've watched from start to finish this year, as you admit. And as far as BYU going off "to find other places to play?" Well, they did. Care to wager if the reception is any better in the WCC next season?
This isn't a recycling of a previous M5 nugget, but it is a link to a story about a former Michigan State guard transferring to Iowa State. Last summer, it was Chris Allen. Now it's Korie Lucious who's headed to Ames. They'll practice but won't play together, since Allen will be on the court next year, a season Lucious must sit out before he returns for 2012-2013. Korie cited ISU coach Fred Hoiberg's NBA connections as a reason for choosing the Cyclones.
At the Villanova @ Seton Hall game on February 15th, it has been alleged that the partner of Keon Lawrence's mother (Lawrence had already been dismissed from the team) assaulted the mother of SHU guard Jordan Theodore in the stands. Later that night, Theodore, flanked by two dudes in ski masks, allegedly knocked on Lawrence's dorm room door while packing a gun. Yeesh. Theodore now faces a charge of unlawful possession of a firearm on school property, despite the questionable testimony that led to it.
The glare problem in Oregon's Matthew Knight Arena has been remedied, but the midcourt line controversy remains. That may soon change. In this story at the blog of The Oregonian, floor designer Tinker Hatfield comments on his inspiration for the court's design, how he loves the controversy about it, what the symbols on the floor mean, and the competitive advantages that may be inherent in the design. As a defense for the lack of a highly visible half court line, he says that the center line at Kansas' Allen Fieldhouse is partially obscured by the large Jayhawk logo at midcourt [Ed. note: I'm looking at KU's floor as I type this, and the whole center line is visible].
Tell us we haven't seen the last of Fang Mitchell at Coppin State. The Eagles have been to the NCAA Tournament four times (1990, 1993, 1997, 2008) and Mitchell has been at the helm for each one. In his 26-year tenure, he's won four MEAC Coach of the Year awards, and from 1992-98 his squads won 54 of 55 conference games. It's been a tough decade for CSU, though, despite this year's squad posting a 10-5 MEAC record going into their senior night game this evening against Morgan State. The Baltimore Sun's Ken Murray writes that the winds of change may be swirling in Baltimore. Despite his evidence, we still hope it isn't true.

Nov. 16, 2012
Every year on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, shoppers scour retailers looking for the best deals on computer parts. Those two days are well known for having the largest sales and best discounts. But is it really the best time to buy?
PCPartPicker tracks prices for over 10,000 computer parts across dozens of retailers. To find out if the holiday season is the optimal time to purchase parts, I plotted out historical prices across different part categories.
Should you wait for the holiday sales? It depends...
First, let's look at Solid State Drives (SSDs) limited to the SATA interface and sized between 60GB-120GB.
For each part retail prices are plotted as blue points, creating an intensity plot. Gray banding represents the span from lowest to highest price. The vertical blue line represents Thanskgiving, and the vertical red line represents Christmas. The thick black line shows the overall average price.
SSD prices dropped slowly during Summer 2011, but then held steady from roughly October through January. Holiday sales showed up as week-long dips on the gray lower bound immediately after Thanksgiving and right before Christmas. Therefore, if you are looking to buy an SSD and aren't locked into a specific model, your best bet to is to buy the week after Thanksgiving or the week before Christmas. If you are locked into a specific model, however, it may not matter; prices generally hold steady well into the next year.
Hard Drives
In 2011, flooding in Thailand took several hard drive manufacturing plants offline, resulting in significantly reduced production. The effect began to take hold in October 2011, when inventory shortages caused prices to rise. Because of limited inventory, sales were extremely scarce during the holiday period. As production resumed, prices gradually dropped. Looking forward to the 2012 holiday season, I expect to see much better hard drive deals as production and inventory has largely been restored.
Next, let's look at LCD monitors between 20"-27". It's a very different story here.
From the plot we can tell that LCD monitor prices are slowly trending upwards. (Monitors were added to PCPartPicker mid-July 2011.) The real surprise is during the holiday shopping period. Prices rose quickly leading up to Thanksgiving. Immediately after Cyber Monday, prices rose sharply again. Roughly a week before Christmas, there was yet another rise in prices. There is evidence of spot sales a few days after Black Friday, but overall if you are buying a monitor it is better to do it sooner than later. Waiting for specific deals could end up costing you more.
For CPUs, I first restricted the selection to the most popular segment - Intel CPUs using an LGA1155 socket (excluding Extreme Editions).
Intel LGA1155-based CPUs held steady in price over the last year, even amid the introduction of Ivy Bridge. During the 2011 holiday period, prices were relatively immune to sales, suffering only a small price increase the week before Christmas. Therefore, if you are in the market for an Intel CPU, timing should not have much of an effect. It is worth noting that combo deals are not reflected in this plot.
Next I took a look at AM3 and AM3+ socket based CPUs from AMD:
Like Intel LGA1155 CPUs, AMD CPUs saw steady average prices with few lower-end sales.
Video Cards
With video cards, the introduction of Radeon HD 7000 and GeForce 600 series chipsets caused quite a bit of average price fluctuation. To get a better look at 2011 video card pricing, I chose to look at two previous chipsets - the Radeon HD 6000 and GeForce 500 series. The price trends are different between the two, making for an interesting comparison. GeForce 500 series cards dropped in price slowly throughout the holiday period, with spot sales at the usual times. Radeon HD 6000 series video cards also saw a steady reduction in price throughout the holiday period, in addition to typical spot sales.
When is the best time to buy? It depends on how picky you are about buying specific models. If you don't have specific parts in mind, you should be able to pick up significant savings. But be warned: for several part types, waiting until the week before Christmas could prove costly.
To make your holiday computer shopping easier, PCPartPicker closely tracks part prices. If you have specific components in mind, subscribe to price alerts to be notified when prices drop below your predetermined thresholds.
Happy Building!

Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: Cutvallari is back on!
Jay Cutler joined ESPN Chicago with Waddle and Silvy to discuss what it was like when he learned of the severity of his thumb injury, the prognosis the doctors have given him, not jinxing himself by predicting when he might be able to return, thinking about the short term and the long term of his career, how Mike Martz utilized Caleb Hanie in his first start, if he'd miss Martz as a coordinator and coach if he left the team and the process that goes along with becoming engaged again to someone you previously had called off an engagement with.
What was it like for you to find out about what was possibly a season-ending thumb injury?:
"It was devastating. I knew kind of they picked Philip off in the end zone and we had it at the 20, there was a timeout, and I knew walking on the field that something was definitely wrong. … I didn't know what the extent was after that. After the game, we took the X-Ray and they told me right away … and that surgery was going to be required and I was probably done. Doing that press conference was tough; it was a devastating time."
Were you encouraged by the what the surgeon said afterward about the possibility to get back for the playoffs?:
"It's one of the reasons I went to Vail. … Just talking [to the doctor] on the phone and just listening to how confident he was in this surgery and his ability to not only further my career and make sure that I'm going to be fine going forward, but also his ability to try to get me back as fast as possible. … This was kind of a walk in the park for him."
How confident are you that you would be back for the playoffs?:
"I don't want to say because I don't want to jinx it or get people excited. We're going to take it week by week and see how it goes. I feel good about it, but you never know what's going to happen."
Is there a struggle in your mind between wanting to get back but also wanting to look out for your future?:
"No doubt. I want to play in Denver, I want to play this week, I want to play the Seattle game, but at the same time, it's only my sixth year. Hopefully I have a lot of football left in Chicago, so I want to be smart about this. I know we're in a playoff race and I know that each game is vital to us being there. … At the end of the day, that's going to win out. I'm going to play as soon as they let me play."
Were you surprised that offensive coordinator Mike Martz threw the kitchen sink at backup Caleb Hanie?:
"A little bit, but thinking on it now, that's how Mike operates. He felt probably deep in his heart that Caleb could handle it. … It's one of those things that, until you go out and experience the play, it's totally different than the classroom. … Until you're really out there on the field and go through the play and mess up and see it on film and repeat the process and get that ingrained into your brain, it's a totally different ballgame out there."
Would you be upset if Mike Martz left?:
"I don't want to learn a new system, I know that. I think we have a good thing going here, but Mike's going to do whatever's best for Mike. This is a business; this is how things go."
It seems like you're more up front with how you feel, particularly if you're unhappy with one of your receivers. Do you feel like you are in a spot now where you can say such things without guys getting offended?:
"If they are, then we have the wrong guys. The only thing that I'm trying to do and the only we all should be trying to do is win football games. They need to know when they mess up. I know when I mess up and if they want to tell me that I messed up, feel free to do it. I don't take this personally. We're all just on the same team trying to win football games."
You are once again engaged to Kristin Cavallari. Do you need to go through the process or again, or is it just like, 'OK, let's do this?'":
"You guys probably know as well as I do, I don't really make a lot of those decisions. I'm kind of just along for the ride. … I hear about them in passing or if I have to possibly write a check or something of that sort. Other than that, whatever she wants to do, I'm on board."
When is this going to happen? And is it going to be in Chicago?:
"You're asking the wrong person."

Minn. Unemployment Rate Unchanged In May
ST. PAUL, (AP) - Minnesota's unemployment rate is unchanged in May compared to the previous month, as employers added 8,400 jobs.
That's according to the state Department of Employment and Economic Development. The agency says the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for May was 5.3 percent, the same as it was in April. The state also lost fewer jobs in April than originally estimated.
That's in comparison to a national unemployment rate of 7.6 percent.
The agency says Minnesota has now regained just over 93 percent of the jobs lost during the recession. The state is 10,700 jobs shy of the pre-recessionary peak.
The biggest gaining job sectors in May were leisure and hospitality, government, professional and business services, and education and health services.

Leah and I need help. We're fortunate that our clients not only took an initial chance on us – but that they keep coming back and referring their friends to us. It's a great problem to have – but we're busy. Really. Busy. So busy in fact that we've decided that we need help. We need a few interns.
Don't worry – we'll get to the requirements and qualifications in a little bit.
If you don't know anything about us – we're Leah and Mark. This is our Portfolio. We started this photography business a little less than two years ago, and we've been going all out ever since. We didn't start out with expensive gear (and we still don't have any) – but that's okay. We've had to rely on creativity and hard work – everything else just makes things slightly easier.
This is what one of our Intern nights looks like at our studio – but we've also had small group shoots out in a river:
Or we'll get special access to photograph a fashion show at an anime convention:
Our Interns work hard, and you can check out their progress over at their Intern Blogs.�Most of our Interns photographed more in the last three months than they did in the past year. Since becoming an Intern – some of them have increased their number of paying gigs, shot on assignment for Creative Loafing and other publications, and have received much more exposure for their photography in general – nevermind the experience and knowledge they've gained.
You can read reviews of this internship from past Interns here: [Season Three] [Season Two] [Season One]
You should know what's in it for you. Because if you're considering working with us, then you should know exactly what you're gaining – since it's definitely not money!
Although it's not really popular these days – we're 'generalists'. We don't specialize in anything and that goes against the current trend of finding your 'niche' and specializing in one or two specific types of photography. We run the gamut and we photograph everything from weddings, to parties, to corporate headshots, to family and children portraits, to senior portraits, and even product photography. Without arguing if our photography is actually any good – we can only go on the fact that our clients REALLY like us, they keep coming back, and new ones seem to keep contacting us and asking us to work with them.
We're very busy and as our intern you will have lots of opportunities to photograph in a wide range of different styles and subject matter.
What we need is for you to have some idea of what you'd like to focus on and learn from us. Some of what we can offer is:
- How to pose subjects, especially strangers – and become confident at it
- How to better handle light – off camera flash and natural
- How to stop taking photos like everyone else (it's easier than you think)
- Get away from 'technically' perfect photos
- Photographers learn by photographing – you'll photograph a lot with us.
- Stop feeling restricted by the gear you DON'T have
AND MARKETING subjects – because you want to be an actual paid and working photographer right?
- How to be truly different from EVERYONE ELSE who is a 'Photographer' these days
- How to hustle and get business
- How to keep clients and get repeat business
- How to charge appropriately�and be paid for your services
- Turn 'good exposure' jobs into ACTUAL Good Exposure for YOU
- Attend our photography business-marketing class (for Interns only)
AND Even More
- Build the client base that you want
- Find out if you do make photographs like everyone else – so you can stop
- Make friends
- Have fun
- Try crazy ideas because no one's going to stop you
- Push the boundaries of what your clients think they want – and keep delivering something just a little different
- Be hired as an artist – and not just a button pusher
We also setup group photoshoots where the ratio is roughly 2-3 photographers per model – and sometimes it's 1 photographer per model. We believe in getting the best position for the best shot – and you can't do that if there are 20 photographers shooting 3 models in a group session.
That's what we think we offer and what we think an Intern can learn from us.
Here's what we're asking from our Interns:
- You own a DSLR camera
- You have at least a rudimentary understanding of shutter speed and aperture
- You have your own artistic ideas – even if you're still working on them
- You aren't afraid to try everything
- You don't say 'we can't do that'
- You are willing to photograph everything during your time with us – even if it's not your style
- You will read any materials we actually give you to read
- You will be available for at least two (2) five hour photo shoots a month (and possibly more permitting your schedule)
- You have a portfolio to show us – and you're proud of your current work – no matter what
- You are nice
- You are stubborn
- You want to learn
- You can commit to working with us for 3 months (roughly)
- Possibly accompany us on photo shoots/weddings out of town (on our tab)
Everything we do is based on three principles:
- Be different
- Do things that matter
- Show everyone
We'd like to make it clear that your progress during this internship is primarily moved forward by you. We work hard to facilitate learning – but this isn't photography 101, and even though we might cover the basics, it's on your shoulders as an intern to do your homework and practice on your own – so that we can get to the really good stuff – the stuff that you won't learn from a 101 course. Also – this internship requires a lot of trial & error learning – so stop aiming for perfection right away.
Please understand, this is an Internship with workshops. It's not a full blown training program, it's not a photography bootcamp, it's not anything resembling a teacher/student/classroom arrangement. This is an Internship. You work along side us, you follow our instructions, and we answer your questions – sometimes.
We do not have a curriculum. We are not an accredited educational institution.
If you've read the reviews – nothing here is spoon fed. You're applying to learn things you can't learn in a book, or for some reason – things that you didn't learn in class. If you don't ask�good questions, then we're not giving up answers. It's your job to ask better questions – and it's our job to answer the good questions. Remember that.
The internship last from May through July – three months.
Deadline is Thursday April 21st at 12pm noon.

Thank you.

Release Date: 2014 |
Dedicated to Andcas
Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound OffI just can't get over the drums on this album. I love them. Upon first listen I was a little
disappointed, but after a few spins and a few days, the strengths are starting to show.
The first three tracks are my favorite, Crimson Covered Walls gets special mention for the miniature
drum solo (most tracks have the drummer shoving inventive fills into every corner, but this track
stands out). Flint and Steel & the last few tracks are kind of weak to me though, at least compared
to the strong start.
The 'melodic crux' you mention is something I wish was a little more consistent. The first three
tracks really made it look like we were going to get something simply structured and highly
melodic, but the rest proves to be slightly more chaotic. Not messy - just fast, energetic, upbeat,
and, instrumentally, up and down the musical scale.
Every now and then, a lyric will combine with a soaring vocal to almost border on cheese - pop/punk
circa last decade cheese - but it never crescendos into anything bad.
I really wish there were as many standout hooks as Love Always, Leviathan, (one of the best
discoveries I've made here on Sputnik over the years) since I find that the second half of this
album blurs together if you're not paying attention, but that doesn't stop it from being a fantastic
album in it's own right.
(Edit: Obligatory mention of your 9001 comments and it's associated meme.)
Interesting that you say that, man. I do agree the first half is more consistent, but some of the last few songs on this record have fuckin' crazy moments. Like, "Input. Time. Destruct."'s main verse is so dense, man. Can't get over that one. And "Chronos"'s staggering chorus, and "Crimson"'s layered vocals at 2:21 kill me every time.
I do think one of the flaws in the second half is that the songs go tense fairly often and Icarus isn't as interesting when they aren't as happy-go-lucky. Like, best example is the 1:22 mark in "Input." but then again, killer bridge AND verse after it so.
Most of us began to disregard prog the instant it seeped into every style of music, when it proceeded to provide billowing fluff over formative structuring. So trust me, I totally get that a "progressive pop rock" (self-dubbed) album like Icarus the Owl feels far removed from relevancy for a lot of us critical music listeners.
But the album also offers the memorability that truly special releases sometimes need
damn Nomos you keep editing that comment, probably to make my response look certifiably basic
Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound OffThat post started as a bloated "FIRST!!!" and ended as a miniature review. The last few songs do certainly have their moments. I think my only problem with them is that these amazing moments are few and far between and are surrounded by verses that are a bit same-y.
I edited that first sentence a bit, Magnus. Thanks for the point-out. I've been thinking about your second point for a bit, but I haven't yet thought of a better way to phrase the 'relevancy' part. What I'm trying to say is that this album caters to a sound/style of music that many would argue became irrelevant after 2010 or so- as in, I've heard few bands that pull off this style of music in a unique way- i.e., that don't sound like The Dear Hunter clones. I'll think on it some more and see if some time helps me out.
Torn on whether I should give this the time of day it probably deserves. I'm so back logged on reviews. I mean I want to, but it doesn't fit my schedule.
I'm not gonna spend time begging you to listen, man. May be your kinda thing, may not, but I do hope that if you check it out, you'd like what you hear. It is a fairly polarizing sound, though.
And Magnus, I've edited the first few sentences a fair bit. Nothing egregiously questionable in there anymore, so thanks again.
It is a fairly polarizing sound, though.
Album Rating: 4.5 | Sound OffNocte, it's worth it. At least spin the first few tracks (I believe their Bandcamp page has some) and that will give you a good indication whether they're your type or not.
Album Rating: 4.0Nice review man.
mental pos
Album Rating: 4.5Yeeeeeaaaaah, Omaha bringing the Icarus love.
Still haven't heard this dammit, both their previous albums were great.
Never heard of this band but daaaaaaaaamn
Digging: Cut Copy - I Thought Of Numbers
enjoyed the stream i think it is really cool and nice when bands stream albums on sputnik music dot com i am happy
Digging: Nina Simone - I Put a Spell on You
Album Rating: 4.5yeah, this rules very hard. I'm predisposed to liking this kind of stuff though
Album Rating: 4.5This reminds me a lot of the newest I the Mighty album
There's some cool stuff here musically but I can't stand these vocals
Album Rating: 4.0i think i like this better than their last one, but i forgot.
Digging: Grey Matter (MI) - Climbing Out
Bands: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

At present, you buy Wii Sports Resort for $50, you get the game and a single MotionPlus accessory. But next month, you'll be getting a little more for your money.
Starting October 12, the game will come packed with not one, but two MotionPlus accessories. Of course, you'll be paying more for the pack - $60 - but $10 for a second MotionPlus is a good deal.
Big week for Nintendo-related price issues, this!

Maggie Morris lost 50 pounds by focusing on one meal at a time.
"I don't eat the way I used to. It's a matter of making choices every day. One day I might decide to eat more than another day, and that's okay, as long as I'm paying attention," she says.
Here are some of the things that helped her pay attention to what she eats:
Maggie also advises that you exercise a little more on days when you know that you are going out to eat or plan to have a treat at dinner.

39A +Solar Halo! (All photos by Author).
New and exciting things are afoot along the U.S. Space Coast. This past week, we had the chance to witness the transition of history up close as the age of the space shuttle comes to an end and we move into an era where NASA gets back to what it knows best; exploration. It's been a bitter-sweet year, watching the four remaining orbiters (Enterprise, Endeavour, Discovery & Atlantis) get dispersed throughout the country.
We were thrilled to be able to witness the very last orbiter to occupy the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) before its transfer to the Kennedy Space Center visitor complex on November 2nd of this year;
We always seem to be "drawn" to Atlantis. The two launches that we had the privilege to witness up close where both Atlantis; STS-125 and the final repair mission to the Hubble from the visitor center, and STS-132 from the press site during the #NASATweetup. With the arrival of Endeavour to Los Angeles, an orbiter will never take to the skies again. It seems strange to watch the shuttle fleet go into retirement. I remember watching the very first drop tests of Enterprise carried out at Edwards as a kid in the late 70′s. It was always assumed that the shuttle fleet would grow and become a mainstay of the space program as we pressed outward from low Earth orbit as a dedicated work horse. It's a strange sort of space policy we've ended up with, one that goes in fits and starts from one administration to the next.
Atlantis in the VAB.
But new beginnings are afoot, both in the space program and at the KSC visitor complex. Atlantis is scheduled to go on permanent display in July 2013, and will feature a thrilling exhibit showcasing the orbiter as if suspended in space with its payload bay doors open. A Rocket Garden Cafe is now open for business, with food that's out of this world. Tours are also currently allowing folks to get up close to previously off-limits areas, such as launch pad 39A & the VAB. Signs of a brave new era are evident, as SpaceX has begun routine missions to the ISS and NASA's Orion/MPCV is slated to once again take U.S. astronauts spaceward in the coming years. It was thrilling, just weeks ago, to watch the Falcon 9 rocket headed northeastward after the ISS; hopefully, that'll once again become a frequent sight for U.S. Space Coast residents and visitors.
Historic Launch Pad 39A.
Do make an effort to visit the KSC as these "times of transition" are often the best to gain unprecedented access to some fascinating locales in space history. A big shout out and thanks to Andrea Farmer and @ExploreKSC for making it all possible!

Samsung Mobile on Wednesday said it would start rolling out Android 4.1, code-named Jelly Bean, to Galaxy S III smartphones in the U.S.
Galaxy S III smartphones currently run on Android 4.0, code-named Ice Cream Sandwich. The Jelly Bean update will be rolled out over-the-air and also via Samsung's Kies software. Individual carriers offering the Galaxy S III, including AT&T, Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, Sprint and U.S. Cellular, will separately announce specific roll-out dates.
Google announced Android 4.1 in June, and vendors have just recently started rolling it out to smartphones and tablets.
Galaxy S III smartphones in Europe are already being updated to Jelly Bean. The updated OS offers a new user interface and new multimedia capabilities.
The OS is the first version built for tablets and smartphones. Compared to predecessors, Jelly Bean is faster, navigation is smoother, and an improved keyboard can better predict words being typed out. Other improvements include revamped notification and text and voice search capabilities. A new feature in Android 4.1 called Google Now provides voice search and also information on weather, traffic, navigation and other data in a single interface.
Samsung is also adding its own apps including "custom" integration of AllShare, which will allow wireless sharing of multimedia files between among devices including PCs, tablets and TVs, the company said. The phone maker is also building in technology to connect Bluetooth devices with just one touch.
Google already offers the Nexus 7 tablet with Android 4.1, and Asustek has pushed out the OS to its tablets. Motorola has pushed out Jelly Bean to some of its tablets and said it would update latest smartphones by end of the year. HTC has also said it would update its One smartphones to Jelly Bean in the future.
