Turkey Seeks Nigeria's Support Against US-based Cleric Fethullah Gulen
ANKARA, Turkey — Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan pledged cooperation with Nigeria in its fight against Boko Haram but said he expected the African nation's support against a movement led by U.S.-based cleric Fethullah Gulen whom Ankara accuses of orchestrating last year's failed coup.
Speaking at a joint news conference Thursday with Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari, Erdogan reiterated Turkish assertions that schools run by Gulen's movement in Africa were being used to raise "militants."
Buhari was in the Turkish capital for a meeting of "Developing-8" countries, which also includes Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Malaysia and Pakistan.
Erdogan also said Turkish customs authorities were engaged in talks with their Nigerian counterparts over how hundreds of rifles allegedly made their way to Nigeria from Turkey.
Gulen denies involvement in the coup.

Honda Jazz Hybrid for Paris show
* Petrol/electric hybrid Jazz to be unveiled in Paris * MPG and CO2 to be confirmed at the show * On sale early 2011...
Honda will unveil a hybrid version of its Jazz supermini at the Paris Motor Show next month.
It will be the worlds first hybrid supermini and uses the same petrol-electric IMA system as the Insight: a 1.3-litre engine combined with a CVT gearbox, with an electric motor sandwiched between the two.
Honda says that, like the Insight and Civic Hybrid, the hybrid Jazz will be able to run on electric power alone under some medium- and low-speed conditions.
The company will confirm the new car's economy and emissions figures at the show, but it says that they should be on a comparable level to the Insight's. That suggests average fuel economy in the low-60s and CO2 emissions of about 100g/km. By comparison, the Jazz's most frugal current engine averages 53.3mpg and emits 125g/km of carbon dioxide.
To distinguish the new hybrid model from the rest of the Jazz range, it has revised headlights with a blue surround, clear rear lights, a new grille, restyled bumpers and chrome tailgate trim.
Inside, the cabin has a darker single-colour dashboard, which contrasts with the blue lighting of the dials and instruments. The car is also available with leather trim, the first time this has been available on a Jazz in Europe.
The new hybrid Jazz will go on sale in the UK early next year, and alongside it at the Paris show will be the latest 2011-model-year versions of the CR-Z, Jazz, Insight, CR-V, Accord and Accord Tourer.

After seeing photos on Instagram from a previous Bombshell event, I KNEW I had to work with them for a photoshoot. The package they offered provided everything I needed to complete the look of a model, including a flawless spray tan, hair, makeup, touch-ups, video footage of the whole day and of course, the chance to work with Cherie C.! From the moment I first spoke with Jenna to the time I left the photo studio (with a USB of all of my raw images), the entire Bombshell team was professional and friendly, making me feel comfortable and looking bomb, providing pointers and laughing throughout the whole process!Krystal
Jenna & her team were fabulous to work with. I got my spray tan, hair, & make up all done by her team. They made everything simple and easy. I looked flawless on show day. Jenna also personally picked all my jewellery for show day. It was beautiful. She was so easy to deal with it. Responding to my messages within minutes. Thanks for everything Jenna.Page
Jenna at Bombshell Productions was absolutely amazing, right from start to finish. She was so full of incredibly useful information and made me feel a lot better about everything, Right from my Competition shoes and my stage jewelry (AMAZING selection by the way) to booking my hair and make up through her, and i could not thank Jenna or her team enough, they made me feel incredibly beautiful on my show day. I received tons of compliments on my accessories as well as my hair and make up as it was unique! I will continue using Jenna and her team for more shows to come 🙂 Thanks guys!!!Breanne Mcdonald
My experience with Bombshell Productions was absolutely perfect! I worked with Jenna for the Vancouver Pro/Am bodybuilding show and it was a breeze! Previous shows I've been stressed out when it comes to getting my show tan, my skin has always seemed to have a tough time with spray tans however this time my tan was perfect! Not only that, Jenna was very accommodating to our athlete schedule making the whole experience stress free! I look forward to working with Bombshell Productions in the future! Thank youCody Drobot
I used Bombshell Productions for my tanning leading to the Vancouver Pro/Am Bodybuilding contest and could not have asked for better service. I had previously hired a different company which was failing to give me the needed attention and which seemed not to care about anything but my money; luckily, I got referred to Jenna ans she saved my life. > Communication couldnt be better even though she was travelling and rushing to set everything up for the clients they had. She made sure to give us the attention one athlete needs and theres nothing I cam complain about. > No doubts Bombshell was a life saver and not only the best customer service, but definitely the best tanning. Would definitely recommend to anyone.Marcello Alfonsi
StephanieI booked a Competition Package with Bombshell Productions for my first ever bikini competition last summer and couldn't have been happier with the results! I was coaching myself so I didn't know what to expect, and Jenna was so helpful and patient with all of my questions. The service was so great and thorough – she gave me all the information I needed to prep for my tan, and it came out looking completely flawless – I couldn't believe how amazing the difference was after Jenna did my tan. Her team did such a great job with my hair and makeup – it matched my tan perfectly and looked fabulous without looking gaudy. Everyone involved was friendly, quick, and professional. I was thrilled with the results and the stage photos came back looking gorgeous! Jenna was also super supportive during the whole process- I was so nervous to do my first show and worried that I wasn't ready, and she gave me the confidence to go onstage and rock it when I didn't think I could do it. I honestly couldn't recommend Bombshell Productions more – a perfect service for show prep from such a genuine person!
Deanna ShukaliakDear Bombshell girls,
I wanted to let you know how impressed i have been with bombshell productions!! I have had the BEST service with them tanning for my show. The colour is OUTSTANDING, not orange and looks amazing on stage! I will never be switching to another tanning company after working with Bombshell. Also i would like to say Jenna is literally amazing, she goes above and beyond to get you what you need. Before i even knew who she was i went to buy jewelry from her, and not only are the prices SO cheap for the quality you are getting but she is so kind and will do anything to try accommodate you. She knows us competitors have a crazy life and are all over the place sometimes but she is kind and will work with you whatever you can do.
Amazing service, and the kindest people! I will be sticking with bombshell through and though!

All Of the Following Make Up the Big Three Credit Reporting Agencies Except
– If you use bank account cards for regular in-store purchases, you may have noticed a subtle modify in the process greater than the last few months. Where merchants and retailers later required consumers to sign a tally card fall to avow a buy and verify their identity, this old-fashioned combat is finally going the quirk of the dinosaur.
Each of the major bank account card issuers Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American ventilate pulled together to end requiring relation card signatures as of 2019. The shape was the repercussion of careful planning amidst a transition toward greater version card security more than all. Thanks to measures such as chip and pin security and further payment methods such as contactless and mobile payments, signatures just arent indispensable anymore. All Of the Following Make Up the Big Three Credit Reporting Agencies Except
Major Card Networks and Issuers Agree
Mastercard was the first card issuer to retire their requirement for signatures at checkout. Their public notice came through on April 5, 2019, in imitation of an ascribed begin date of April 13, 2019.
The acknowledged object of the disturb was to keenness customers through checkout lines and meet the expense of merchants greater control. Presumably, the regulate then meant to prevent merchants from having to save stacks of signed financial credit card slips for weeks or months until they could be safely disposed of.
In our digital, fast-paced marketplace, consumers appreciate any opportunity to keep time. This is why Mastercard led the warfare to officially retire cardholder signatures from increase receipts, said Linda Kirkpatrick, organization vice president, U.S. broadcast progress at Mastercard in a press release. Merchants recognize that cardholder signatures have limited use, and are embracing this modify to create efficiency for their customers.
Discover, American Express, and Visa quickly followed act when their own statements and gate that signatures are no longer indispensable for dwindling of sale purchases.
What Does This intention for Consumers?
On the consumer end of the equation, this news wont correct the habit you shop. You can use your financial credit card as normal when much beefier security than you had entry to even five years ago; the and no-one else difference is, you wont be required to sign a signature fall to prove your identity.
This shouldnt come as much of a wonder to anyone, but providing a signature wasnt an accurate quirk to prevent fraud anyway. The process was as a consequence bound to withhold going on lines and slow all along the purchasing process. A psychoanalysis from Mastercard noted that 72 percent of consumers acquire irritated in the manner of the person in stomach of them takes too long to check out. Plus, a growing number of Americans and particularly youth people ages 18 to 24 be repulsed by writing their declare in script, remarks the study. Eliminating the dependence for a signature at checkout will inevitably quickness going on the process and shorten stress.
No Changes to Security or Liability
Credit card companies initially started requiring signatures to cut instances of fraud, but new technology has paved the showing off for greater than before means of security. Discover, for example, has implemented several digital authentication technologies such as tokenization, multi-factor authentication, and biometrics, they note. These procedures have enough money a lot more security than requiring a signature and give a more seamless payment transaction.

As the payments industry continues to go forward and introduce other methods of transacting, were making positive that Discover is providing customers and merchants bearing in mind a smooth and more secure payments experience, said Jasma Ghai, vice president of Global Products increase at Discover in a press release. With the rise in further payment security capabilities, considering chip technology and tokenization, the epoch is right to sever this step from the checkout experience.
In terms of liability, consumers yet have tiny to trouble approximately in the same way as it comes to their relation cards. Card issuers and networks will continue to find the money for the thesame liability protections they did before, when the immense majority guaranteeing zero answerability for fraudulent purchases.

Also note that the Fair description Billing charge (FCBA) adds an additional deposit of security against fraudulent charges, just as it has past it was passed in 1974. Thanks to the FCBA, consumer liability for unauthorized relation card charges tops out at $50 no situation what is charged to their account. If you bank account a missing card previously your relation card is used, next you are not responsible for any purchases they make. If a hacker steals your tab card number to make a fraudulent charge, you are with off the hook afterward it comes to those charges, according to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
– similar to Will Retailers stop Requiring Signatures?
Like any sweeping change, it takes a even if to get everyone on board. Some merchants were competent to end long-suffering signatures right away, but others will need some era to adequately take on board the change.
all of ,
Based upon card issuer responses, it seems theres no huge rush to force anyone to change what theyre do something either. In a press freedom from Visa, for example, the checking account card network noted that EMV-enabled merchants who preferred to seize a signature to verify customer identity could continue to do so. At the thesame time, they would no longer be required to keep, organize, or store the signed receipts.

Continuing the series of stories written in the POV of characters from the gospels' accounts of Easter, I present to you, 'Mary, the Mother of Jesus'. This story is collectively written from all four accounts of the crucifixion and resurrection, but the ending is taken from Mark 16.
Nothing I had ever dreamed could've prepared me for this day. My wails were loud and forlorn. I refused to be comforted. I watched the Savior of the world be nailed to a crude wooden frame, nails being pounded into His wrists.
I remembered everything that I had pondered in my heart up until this day. I remembered the night of His birth, and the animals that were the welcoming committee for His entry into this world. I remembered the gifts of the magi who had traveled so far to reach us. I remembered the nights we had to flee from those who wished to kill Him because of the prophesies. I remembered singing to Him before night fell. I remembered watching His earthly father, my husband Joseph, guide His small hands over a piece of wood, teaching Him to carve. I remembered the panic that filled my being when I found out that He was no longer with us on our way home from the Passover celebration. I remembered the astonishment of finding Him in the temple. I remembered the miracles He did, the time He changed water to wine at the wedding. I remembered…
A cry went up from my Son, and I wept with and for Him. His disciple, John, was at my side, yet I ceased not from my anguish. It was then that I remembered the words of the devout and righteous man, Simeon, at the temple. And a sword will pierce even your own soul. He was precisely right. It was as though they were piercing a sword through my own heart. The moments stretched into what seemed like eternity as my Son, my Son that I loved, my firstborn, was hanging on the cruelest of all of the Roman's punishments- the cross.
In an unforetold instant, darkness fell over the land, and the sun was obscured. It mattered not to me. Who cared if the sun grew dark? My Son was dying. A mother's love for her child is one of the greatest possible loves. I wept.
It was then that Jesus spoke. Through His pain, He said to me, "Woman, behold, your son!" and to John, who stood at my side, He spoke and said, "Behold, your mother!" This touching act of His assuring that I would be taken care of broke my heart into shattered pieces again.
A sudden hush grew over the crowd, and a cry rose from the throat of my Child.
"It is finished!" He exclaimed, and then bowed His head. He was gone from this earth. I fell to the ground, and in a moment, John was beside me as I mourned the death of Jesus.
I stayed for several hours, and the beloved disciple of my Son stayed with me, accepting me into his household. I followed the man who took my Child's body from the cross, and watched from a distance as the man laid Him in an unused tomb cut from rock. The lush garden that surrounded it provided serenity for His burial place.
The Sabbath was a numbing day for me as I realized that my Son was dead.
On the first day of the week, however, I went with a young woman, Mary of Magdalene, to the tomb. We conferred with one another, asking who would roll away the stone from the entrance of the tomb so that we would be able to anoint His body with spices. As we approached, I immediately saw that the stone had been rolled away, even though it was extremely large. Had someone known that we would come to anoint His body? As I entered the tomb, I was taken by surprise when I noticed a young man sitting at the right, wearing a dazzling white robe. I was amazed. Who was this man?
"Do not be amazed;" he instructed. "You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who has been crucified. He has risen; He is not here; behold, here is the place where they laid Him."
His words accurately described the place where I had seen the prominent man lay Him. It was then that I realized who he was. The angel continued, "But go, tell His disciples and Peter, 'He is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see Him, just as He told you.'"
I was both fearful and joyful. Was my Son really alive? Astonishment gripped me, and together with Mary Magdalene, we hurried to tell the disciples. It was incredible.... unbelievable almost.

NFL Week 12: Fusion Outlook
Donald Gibson
So, my tradition during Thanksgiving week is usually publishing a mildly-sappy article about how I appreciate "x" number of fantasy players and then how much I appreciate my readers.
This year, however, I'm doing the same thing. I don't care if it's cliche.
What Am I Thankful For?
1. The Saints offense: Everyone knows I'm a big fan of the Saints in fantasy, and they really haven't disappointed this season aside from a few minor hiccups. And, luckily for you, they play at home the last two games before the fantasy playoffs, so there's a good chance they get you in and give you a shot at the title. It's fine, you can thank me (and them) later.
2. Running backs - well, some at least: Contrary to the opinion of many writers and analysts, I was a big proponent of taking running backs early in drafts this year. Despite the increased risk of injury and losing snaps to backups, a solid group of RBs is the cornerstone of a lot of successful fantasy teams. Guys like David Johnson and Ezekiel Elliott have rewarded their owners twenty times over for taking a chance on them despite limited professional experience.
3. Tight Ends: This is kind of odd, because I complain about the inconsistency of TEs all the time. This season, however, has shaped up to be a little better than usual when it comes to TE production. The emergence of guys like Zach Miller (now out for the season), Eric Ebron, C.J. Fiedorowicz, and even Jack Doyle, not to mention the resurgence of Jimmy Graham, the Tight End pool isn't awful anymore...it's just kinda bad. I'll take it.
4. Finally, all of you: You knew it was coming. I told you already. I've been writing fantasy for 2 and a half years now, and I still love it as much as I did when I started. It's great being able to interact with people through this website, through a fantasy app, via Twitter (@DonaldGibsonFF), and in person, of course. My goal since I started was to give the best advice I could and to be available to anyone who wants my help, and I truly hope I've accomplished that. I truly appreciate you taking the time to read this and anything else that we've written here at FantasyFusion, and I hope you've enjoyed it at least a little bit.
Starts of the Week/DraftKings Values
Okay, on to the real stuff.
Drew Brees ($7100): Surprised? Nah. Brees is the fifth-most expensive QB on DraftKings, but he's my number one QB this week. Simple.
Both Carsons (Wentz: $5400, Palmer: $5300): Not only are both Carsons facing defenses that give up a ton through the air, they're also playing teams with high-octane offenses. Ticket for two to Shootout City, please.
Running Backs
Jay Ajayi ($7600): [Insert RB playing San Francisco here].
Lamar Miller ($5800): San Diego is notoriously bad against the run, and Miller's price just seems way too low. That's pretty much it...
Chris Ivory ($4200): Here are some guys around Ivory's price: Alfred Blue, Wendell Smallwood, Fitzgerald Touissant (look at that selection of names! I feel like I'm reading the guest list at a 1950's charity gala). Ivory is the lone back in Jacksonville assuming T.J. Yeldon is out, and even if he isn't, Ivory impressed last weekend. Fire him up.
Wide Receivers
Larry Fitzgerald ($7000): At the beginning of the season, I was trying to avoid anyone in the Cardinals receiving game. Fitz has 50 targets in his last 4 games - good for just over 27% of the target distribution in those games. Expect another 40-50 pass game for Palmer, and expect Fitz to reap the rewards.
Rishard Matthews ($5800): It's pretty hard to find a less sexy name than Matthews, but the guy's been killing it. He's averaging over 9 targets, just under 83 yards, and one touchdown per game over his last three games. The Bears are the Bears, by the way.
Tyler Boyd ($4000): No A.J. Green. Boyd scored last week after Green went down. Must I spell it out further?
Tight Ends
Gary Barnidge ($3600): If you didn't know already, Josh McCown loves him some Gary Barnidge. If McCown starts, expectations for Barnidge skyrocket. Also, the Giants are badddddd against TEs.
Defense/Special Teams
Titans D/ST ($2800): Matt Barkley is likely going to be the Bears quarterback. I repeat, Matt Barkley is likely going to be the Bears quarterback. Are you getting this?

A Monte Carlo simulation has been devised and used to model steady state and transient electron transport in enhancement (recessed gate) and depletion (surface gate) mode SiGe n-MODFETs that have recently been the subject of experimental study. The simulated device geometries and doping are matched to the nominal parameters described for the experimental structures as closely as possible, and the predicted I-V and transfer characteristics for the intrinsic devices show fair agreement with the available experimental data. Simulations of the effect of modulating the gate bias have also been carried out to test the device response and derive the frequency bandwidth. Values of 60+/-10 GHz and 90+/-10 GHz have been derived for the intrinsic current gain cut-off frequencies fiT of the enhancement and depletion mode n-MODFETs.

Trip Reports IICarene Lydia -- Thursday, July 27, 2017 -- 07:24:32 PM
This thread is tagged:
(All users will see what tags exist for a thread. Please tag carefully!)
I broke the old thread, so I'm going to post my recent posts here (two will be duplications).
My reason for going to Nashville was to see two of my favorite artists (Lucero and Steve Earle) at a venue that I've always wanted to experience, the Ryman Auditorium. You can read my review of the venue and the show here.
I had stayed up all night the day before and when I was packing at 4am, I got a call, which I knew couldn't be good. Turned out that JetBlue cancelled the first leg of my flight. I called and they were able to change my flight. But instead of arriving at 3:30, I'd be arriving at 5:30, so I was hoping that there wouldn't be any delays. I was flying through Logan and I'd never been there before. I stopped to eat Johnny Rockets because my choices near the departure gate were limited and had the worst burger and onion rings in my life. Walking to my gate, I passed a Legal Seafoods. I was pissed that I hadn't seen that before. I stopped off at their bar and had a delicious oaky Chardonnay with six Wellfleet oysters. It more than made up for the terrible lunch.
The Clarion Hotel was on the other side of the Cumberland River near the stadium. They had a shuttle that ran every half-hour to Broadway and 1st Avenue South and back to the hotel. My first view was of the river and the waterfront park.
Turning towards Broadway I was surprised to see the party bikes, party buses, and party barges. Walking up towards 5th Avenue South, it was early enough so that I didn't have to walk through drunk crowds of young people and more bachelorette parties than I could count – that would come later. I don't understand why groups of girls need to wear a veil and custom t-shirts to celebrate. I'm so glad this wasn't a thing when I was in my twenties. The feeling was Bourbon Street on cowboy boot steroids.
There was bar after bar after bar with live music (and air-conditioning) blasting into the street. There were also a lot of stores selling cowboy boots. And there were musicians on every corner. And homeless people begging.
After the show, I looked down Ryman Alley and then walked back to Broadway and stopped into Robert's Western World. I was happy to see a grill so that I could get some food – a very clean grill and the cook kept cleaning after making every sandwich. They sold burgers and hot dogs but I decided to have a fried baloney sandwich with onion rings. The onion rings were so much better than those I'd had earlier and a fried baloney sandwich tastes like a flat hot dog sandwich. The bar was full of 20-somethings, each one drunker than the one next to him/her. I also saw some people with merch from the show and listened in on some conversations about the show.
After a couple of drinks, I headed back to the hotel to sleep.
The next morning it was 92 degrees at 10am and very humid. I could have walked over the bridge to downtown but it was too fucking hot so I took the shuttle again and, once again, admired the Cumberland and the park. And at 10am there were party bikes and buses full of 20-somethings already drunk and yelling.
While walking down 1st Avenue South along the river, I tripped across a kind of large diorama of Fort Nashborough.
I turned up Church Street to Puckett's Grocery & Restaurant.
The place was packed with people drinking either with their breakfast or just drinking. I sat at the counter/bar and ordered the Southern Stack (sweet potato pancakes, fried apples, pulled pork, and a sunny side egg) and sweet tea. The breakfast was both hearty and delicious. I was surrounded by a bunch of guys who were continuing their drinking from the night before.
I turned down Fifth Avenue South and saw a record store inside a parking lot and passed by Municipal Auditorium, where you can see that there's more than country music in Nashville.
I finally made it to my second stop for the day – the Musicians Hall of Fame. Here I have to make a confession. I thought I was at the Country Music Hall of Fame and I was confused by the exhibits. There was no Hank Williams or Bill Monroe. But there was plenty about the recording of music, exhibits for several famous US studios (Sun, Muscle Shoals, Stax, Capitol, Motown), exhibits for famous studio musicians (Wrecking Crew, the Funk Brothers, the A Team, the Tennessee Two, etc.), and many of the instruments and recording equipment used in the studios. As a recovering sound engineer, I was in heaven. It wasn't until I saw the signs for the Country Music Hall of Fame after I left that I wasn't confused anymore.
In the lobby was a display of Women Behind the Music. Inside we saw a short film and it was a self-guided tour. When I sent photos of some of the tape machines and consoles to my friend Kenny (former sound engineer for the Bowery Ballroom), his response was "Holy shit! A Scully 280!! Legendary. Sam and Dave! An Otari MTR-90…another legend. That's a Mark 1 model I believe…damn! Any mics??"
Owen Bradley's desk from the Quonset Hut. Bradley created what is known as the Nashville sound.
I could post photo after photo of consoles and tape decks but I'll spare you. Here are some of the instruments used by the A Team.
Duane Eddy's and Les Paul's guitars.
This is the bass you heard on countless Motown hits. As a friend once said – those guys were lucky if they got carfare home.
Although the Wrecking Crew exhibit listed Carol Kaye, her bass wasn't in the exhibit. I asked one of the employees why she was missing and he said they buy everything at auction and none of her basses must have come up for auction.
I took tons of photos of the instruments used by famous and not so famous musicians. I'll spare you having to see all of those also. But here's the guitar that Pete Townshend played at Monterey Pop. It was actually repaired and he continued to use it.
And there were the exhibits for the studios.
The second exhibit was about the Grammys and how to use instruments, record, mix, and produce. There was a room where you could mix a song and one to produce a song. It's not like the real thing but for laymen it's fun to play with the faders and effects. You can try out different digital instruments and check out their effects. There was a recording booth that I wanted to try out but you needed two people – one person to be the engineer. You could also rap in one room and play DJ for electronic music. My favorite part was when you could be a Raelette singing background for Ray Charles on "Hit the Road Jack." A crowd gathered and I received applause from the tourists. Later I tried the Ray Charles part and realized that the song really belongs to the Raelettes – Ray Charles does very little in that song (although what he does do is choice).
The Grammys have changed through the years and here is a deconstructed Grammy.
One more instrument because this is so beautiful.
The last room before you go back into the lobby is the history of how we listen to sound. Radios, record players, cassette decks, TVs, jukeboxes, and personal sound boards.
Anyone remember these personal radios that you wore on wrist?
Next I walked up 3rd Avenue South to the Johnny Cash Museum. And I discovered something that Nashville has which NYC needs – diagonal crossing. You can cross at the corners at the crosswalks but the lights stay red for the cars long enough for you walk kitty corner.
It was a Saturday and the place was packed but there was still enough room for me wander about once I got out of the front room. There was room with a film devoted to Cash's film and TV appearances. In his first film, he played an over-the-top villain and we saw scenes from the beginning, middle, and end. It was brilliant and hysterical. Another room showed concert footage. I could have spent hours there watching concert after concert. There was clothing worn by Cash and June Carter for various performances and events, a place setting of their china, a cabinet, and record covers and singles. His CMA awards were interesting – the awards are crystal now but they used to be wood. The first room is a timeline.
National Medal of the Arts.
June's dresses.
One of Cash's outfits.
Cash was also an artist.
There were displays about the Carter Family and Walk the Line.
Another exhibit was devoted to the Million Dollar Quartet. And you could listen to covers of Cash's songs. "Ring of Fire" and "I Walk the Line" were the most covered. If you think that the disco-inspired version of "Ring of Fire" is by Grace Jones, you'd be wrong. Hers is reggae-inspired.
Hint: She's the one in the box because I was listening to Carlene Carter's version at that moment.
Outtakes from the Carryin' On with Johnny Cash & June Carter album cover.
What great boots.
I normally wouldn't take a photo of a toilet but this one cracked me up. In order to make it fit into the stall, the front is pointing to a corner of the stall. Go home, toilet. You're drunk.
Upstairs is the newly opened Patsy Cline Museum.
Clothing that her mother made for her that Patsy designed at the beginning of her career.
There was a short film about Patsy's life and a small exhibit for Sweet Dreams. A wall of album covers and single covers. Patsy bought a small ranch house that she was very proud of. There was furniture from the living room, bar room, and dining room. And a wall of items from her home.
She collected salt and pepper shakers.
Patsy was the first country artist to perform in Las Vegas.
I loved these shoes.
Some awards.
Patsy sent drawings to Nudie for a dress and cape. He wrote a letter to her the day after her plane crashed. The outfits were made 54 years later.
It was back to Broadway to walk down to 2nd Avenue South. My phone battery was out so I couldn't look up the George Jones Museum but I'd seen the sign on 1st Avenue South. That side is the old factory facades and the entrances are around the corner. I walked inside and saw a restaurant and bar. I asked and they said they had a few photos up and that was all. When I checked online the next day I read reviews that raved about the restaurant but complained about the exhibits because the audio didn't work on most of them. It seemed that these exhibits were upstairs but I wasn't told to go up there so maybe that section is closed now.
In case you'd like to be saved before or after you sin by getting shitfaced on Broadway.
George's tractor. But is it the tractor?
I walked over to Tootsie's Orchid Lounge. On the way, I heard two bands playing "Copperhead Road." I know Steve Earle started in Nashville and his albums cover different genres but I think of his songs under the umbrella of rock and roll. The front door was packed – there was a line and the front room was packed. But I knew there was an entrance in the Ryman Alley. I easily entered through the back. Just like Robert's I smiled and walked in, while the bouncers checked everyone else's IDs. There was a band in the back and a shelf around them. I could see a few open seats. And a group of guys walking through the bar with one holding his iPhone up so their buddy on Facetime could be part of the group.
I went to the bar first got a drink. Most of the Broadway bars have levels – some several and other back rooms and front rooms and rooftop bars. I felt okay being in the back room. The band was good. They played a few songs and passed the bucket for tips (which is how they get paid). Then another band came on and they were another human jukebox. Both bands played Chris Stapleton's "Tennessee Whiskey." Between the bands the sound system played Steve Earle's Guitar Town. I chose a seat between a man and woman. When I asked the man if the seat was free, he was non-committal and looked like he was about to fall over. The woman in front of me kept looking at me and the man behind me. Finally, she did the two fingers to the eyes and then pointed at him for the "I see you." She asked if we could switch seats, so we did. I wanted to tell her that there were a lot of reasons why I didn't want her man but the number one reason would be that he smelled like vomit. That couple and the entire group around me were from Texas and were not 20-somethings. They were more like 40-somethings and they were loud and rowdy.
The bassist for the second band was a comedian and did Willie Nelson's "holler and swallow," a tradition started in Tootsie's by Willie 49 years ago when he was 68 years old [laughter]. After two drinks and "Pink Houses," "American Girl," some other rock songs, and a bunch of country songs, and more bachelorette parties, I decided it was time to eat. I went to Jack's Bar-B-Que, which had a line going to the door. While on line, it started to stretch out down Broadway. I had the pork shoulder plate with baked beans and potato salad with coconut custard pie for dessert. My table was next to the line and I could hear a woman asking if they had any white meat. The Tennessee sauce and Music City sauce were not as good as the pork shoulder dry.
I caught the shuttle back to the hotel. My original plan was to go to the Bluebird Café but it was sold out and waiting room was first come and I didn't want to take the chance since it was a cab ride away. Second choice was Mercy Lounge but I was tired. I watched a paddle boat turn in the river while waiting for the shuttle.
Sunday was another hot and humid day so I took the shuttle again. I had the morning and early afternoon before I had to leave for the airport to catch at 4pm flight out. This time I made it to the Country Music Hall of Fame. I got there a little after 10am and I signed up for the 11:30am tour of RCA Studio B, which meant a shuttle to Music Row and would take about an hour, so it didn't leave me much time in the museum. Their core exhibit is "Sing Me Back Home: A Journey Through Country Music," which I was interested in. Other exhibits about Shania Twain, Jason Aldean, and Charlie Daniels, I was not interested in and knew I'd be skipping those.
Sunday morning and Broadway had few people and no music yet.
"Sing Me Back Home: A Journey Through Country Music" is exactly that. It begins with the English and Celtic tunes brought to the US and then music from the slaves and freed blacks was added to the mix to create American roots music. There were films and displays of instruments and clothing. Hillbilly music became country and country and western. The Grand Ole Opry was born. Country was an influence on early rock and roll and then there was a movement back to traditional country.
Guitar from 1850 and fretless banjo from the late 1800s.
Mandolin from 1916 and 19th century copy of a Stradivarius.
This is a shot from the film of a man playing a 19th century ballad. Children are dancing and a visitor came into the shot.
Note the gun details on Webb Pierce's Silver Dollar Cadillac.
Elvis' Solid Gold Cadillac. He drove it from Memphis to RCA Studio B and then over the Country Music Hall of Fame, when he donated it. There are many layers of paint on it.
There were displays of instruments of famous country musicians.
A temporary related exhibit was "Dylan, Cash, and the Nashville Cats: A New Music City."
Owen Bradley's office from his Barn recording studio.
There were small exhibits for a lot of musicians – both headliners and studio musicians.
There was a wall about all the artists who came to Nashville to record.
I wish I had had more time to explore both those exhibits but it was time for the shuttle to RCA Studio B. Our guide Ron was non-stop with information about the studio itself and all the musicians that recorded there. RCA leased the studio, so they never owned the building. It is still a working studio but they allow tours during the day. Elvis recorded almost all his hits there. But non-RCA artists recorded there also.
Roy Orbison – the engineer placed all the coats behind him to create an isolation booth so that sound could be reflected.
These music charts are universal now. But I had no idea it was a Jordanaire who created this system.
There was old equipment.
The studio.
The sweet spot in the room.
This was Elvis' favorite piano.
The control room.
These lights were requested by Elvis. The different colors set different moods. For "Are You Lonesome Tonight?" all the lights were off and he sang in the dark. If you listen carefully, at the end of the record, you'll hear when Elvis bumped his head against the mic because he couldn't see it.
While everyone else loaded back onto the shuttle to head back to the Country Music Hall of Fame a mile away, I walked down Music Row and went off to find Hattie B's Hot Chicken, which was a few blocks away. I wanted to try Nashville's hot chicken and Prince's Hot Chicken Shack (the father of hot chicken) is closed on Sundays. It was Sunday. And that meant there was a very very long line out the door. After 20 minutes, I realized I was not going to get anywhere near inside in time to order, eat, and get to the airport on time.
Turned out that I had time. The first leg was delayed and there was a possibility that I wouldn't make it in time for the second leg. But when the clerk checked, it turned out that all flights to NYC were delayed because of weather (I don't understand why people use that word to mean bad weather. There's always weather – good and bad.) and even with the delay I would make it. She put me in the first row, which meant my carry-on was in a bin several rows back and away from the bin that held my suitcase. So, when the plane landed at 8:40pm I was pushing through to get to all my stuff and out of the plane to make a flight that was originally scheduled to leave at 8:30pm. It was delayed until 9:50, so I was okay.
While I waited for hours at the Nashville airport, I went in search of food. I skipped the fast food places in my terminal and went to another terminal that had restaurants. Turns out O'Charley's had a version of the hot chicken sandwich. I don't know how genuine their version was but it was spicy.
Someday I'd like to visit both Memphis and Nashville again with someone who has a car so that I can see some of the nicer sections of both cities and see the Tennessee countryside.
If you haven't seen enough, there's a Flickr album with a zillion photos.
Unbelievable, Carene ! I dont' know how you do it! I'm overwhelmed.
I went to Nashville-sort of--few years back on a conference trip for work. I say "sort of" because we were at the Gaylord Resort which is a hermetically sealed giant bubble that includes little villages and walking paths and shopping areas and everything-- oh and also a tropical rain forest. it's actually kind of pretty and I liked staying there but it doesn't feel like a normal world. Because it isnt! Some of us escaped to a local supermarket at one point and on one evening we went to the Country Music Hall of Fame for a party and that was fun. I went through that but I don't really remember much of what I saw.
Thanks for sharing your trip!,
Very nice Carene. We went just after 4th of July with my 81 year old mother who was born there. We heard The Soggy Bottom Boys at the Ryman and went to the country Music Hall of fame as well. Sorry you didn't get to the Parthenon.
One of the most underrated cities in the U.S.
One doesn't necessarily have to like country music (I hate it) to still very easily find a 1-2 weeks of fun and interesting things to do in Nashville and its metropolitan area.
I am probably taking my life in my hands interrupting the Carene Show, but it's Day 8 of my ten-day trip to Iceland, and a few of you expressed the sentiment that you might want to visit. So, a few impressions:
Bring money. Lots of money. The prices for food here are about 100% higher than comparable NYC prices. And they are the same across the board, from better restaurants to little family joints. I haven't seen a hamburger for less than $25. Bowls of soup (seafood or beef with veggies or or even chili where available) start at $20 and go up from there. Fish, which is abundant and fresh (especially cod, trout, Arctic char and wolffish) start around $31. Lamb (grilled rib chops) start at $60 and go up from there. A Coke from a highway rest stop is $4.50. Everything is a la carte. Appetizers run $16-24. Desserts are over $20. Lunch and dinner menus are the same, so no savings there. A routine meal for two with a glass of wine each, tax (11%) and tip will easily be over $100. Having said all of that, the food is remarkably good, very fresh and well-prepared. If you're used to ethnic cooking with a lot of spices, bring your own, because the thing here is to showcase the intrinsic flavors of the foods themselves.
English is very widely spoken, and well. No problem there.
Iceland is 99.9% pastoral and rural. The distances to attractions can be daunting unless you like long car trips. The scenery is beautiful in a way that reminds me of the high plains of Southern Colorado -- wide open spaces surrounded by mid-size mountains, dotted with family farms every so often. Of course, at this time of year the sun sets at about 11 pm but it never really gets dark, and lightens up about 4 am. If your idea of Paradise is a Caribbean island, don't come here. The daily high temp is about 55F. We had two days of heat wave when the sky was brilliant blue and it hit about 70F. Intermittent light showers that last for five minutes are common, but mostly it's bright overcast.
The Icelandic people are unfailingly lovely and polite. Crime is almost unheard of. People leave their homes unlocked without a thought. Think middle America in the mid-twentieth century, before the Clutter murders.
The attractions are mostly mini-versions of what you would see in a decent tour of the US. A famous geyser (called Geysir, which is where the name comes from). Black sand beaches (but you're on the North Atlantic a few hours south of the Arctic Circle, so don't even think about swimming) with some really neat rock formations (columnar basalt). A one-hour walk into a series of tunnels and ice caves dug out forty feet under the top of a glacier. Some gorgeous waterfalls that arise from glacial melting. An opportunity to go whale watching on a trawler from a small port on the North Coast: one hour out, twenty minutes of humpbacks, one hour back in a 60 km long fjord. Slight chop to the water, no one seasick. The give you waterproof coveralls, which you really need unless you enjoy being not only cold but wet.
Thinking it over, the best part of the trip for me is a sense of relaxation and peacefulness that I have fallen into over the past few days, which I really needed because before I left I was under a lot of stress at home, which was beginning to take a toll. Even in Ireland (two summers ago) and Scotland (last summer) there was so much more to do that activities took precedence over just chilling out, being contemplative, and letting the endless green fields here have their hypnotic effect. If you are stressed, Iceland is a good place to recover. If you are retired and looking to amp up your adrenaline, choose another destination.
There's really more to say, but that's about all for now. By the way, there are essentially no trees in Iceland. What they call trees we call "bushes." Icelandic humor: What do you do if you're lost in an Icelandic forest?Stand up.
Nice report.
I wound up going to Aruba, and it was expensive as well, but not as much as that. My experience is islands are almost always high because of the need to import basically everything.
Sounds beautiful. I've wanted to visit Iceland for a long time.
I had friends who honeymooned in Iceland about 40 years ago. It wasn't a destination then and we all thought they were crazy. Being part-hippie, they thought they'd camp around the island. It was August but still much too cold to camp. They spent a lot of money on sweaters. I remember a description of a boy sitting on the curb peeling a slightly rotten orange with great care because fruit was so expensive. At the time, they said most of the fruit they were able to buy was past their prime.
Fresh fruit and vegetables, while available, are still something of a novelty here, especially to the older generation. Two days ago we visited an operation that consists of 50,000 sq. ft. of greenhouses, all growing tomatoes, all computerized as far as temperature, water, etc. They supply almost the entire country's stores and restaurants. What they don't use they turn into tomato soup, which they serve for lunch with the best homemade bread I've ever eaten. You eat right in the greenhouse. It's the only thing on the menu -- all you can eat for a fixed price. The vines grow 8-9 feet tall on wires to the ceiling. They harvest a ton of tomatoes a week. Oh yeah, they also set down a basil plant and a pair of scissors in front of you in case you want some in your soup. And don't get me started on Icelandic butter. Go ahead, try it at your own risk, and then tell me with a straight face that you'll switch back to your old butter with nary a thought. Ain't gonna happen.
I liked your stand up comedy Cliff!
About two minutes before I saw your post about Iceland, I saw an ad online for a trip to Iceland I said to my housemate "we have to do this!!! $500 for a trip to Iceland for four days to see the northern lights and other stuff! We have to do it-- let's just GO!
I'm glad you brought me back down to earth with your report because I could never afford to eat anything there.
It's great that you're getting just the kind of vacation you needed.
Cliff, I missed this. What a great story! Pictures, though. I can just envision that tomato soup.
I'm on a road trip and decided to reactivate that thread. Would love comments.
Cal, mea culpa, I would post pictures but, but, (sniff) I don't know how. There, I said it. I am probably the least computer literate person at TPW, and I would hate to think that there is anyone more incompetent than I here.
BTW, I read the entire "Moving Violations" post and have nothing but the greatest admiration for both your courtroom adversarial skills and your reportage. A great read!
A few more random thoughts about Iceland, now that I'm home. Both Ireland and Scotland have grand castles and lots of cool 18th and 19th century history to explore. Iceland has nothing. The people were living in bleak, dank sod houses well into the 20th century, lucky to have a few cows or sheep to their name. Their "real" history starts in WWII when the Americans set up a base there. When the Yanks left, the natives took over the quonset huts and turned them into housing, schools and various general use properties. They are still very much in use. The entire economy depended on commercial fishing. There is still a significant amount of fishing, but it has been curtailed by sustainability issues. There were several "Cod Wars" not long ago involving cutting of nets, etc. So the bottom line is that tourism is now the most important industry on the island.
Also note: If your thing is blond(e)s, this is where you want to be. I have never seen more gorgeous white-blond hair in profusion in my life, mostly on gorgeous people, both men and women. I think it's a requirement for citizenship. Or not.
Cliff, that's interesting.
To post photos on TPW, you need to upload the photos onto a photo hosting site. Some of them are Flickr, Google Photos, Imgur, TinyPic. There are a lot more - and they're mostly free (some will charge over a certain amount of storage). I use Flickr and I'm happy with them. I find it very easy to use.
Once the photos are uploaded, you get the url of each photo and use the Image Formatting Option in the dropdown box below to post the photo to TPW.
Thanks, Cliff!
Cliff, for a brief period the Icelandic economy was not based on fishing but rather finance. And we see how well that went.
Was the town with the greenhouses Hveragerdi? That's where they used to be when I was in Iceland.
I'm getting homesick and want to go back.
Carene, thank you for the amazing Nashville writeup.
"Cliff, for a brief period the Icelandic economy was not based on fishing but rather finance. And we see how well that went."
I intentionally left out any mention of the financial events of 2008-09, since they were such a "one-off" from the rest of Icelandic economic history. Basically, Icelandic banks were avid purchasers of the same toxic mortgage products that were the heart and soul of the worldwide meltdown. When it all went south, the three largest banks were nationalized, the Icelandic depositors were made whole (did not lose their savings) but the foreign stockholders lost essentially everything. For a while, Iceland was unable to borrow internationally, but the last of the strictures was lifted in March, 2017. Reykjavik has dozens of construction cranes now. Iceland's first 5-star hotel (Marriott) is undergoing construction right at the harbor. Very large cruise ships are frequent visitors (when I visited, the Queen Elizabeth was in port). There is a sense among the people of hard lessons having been learned.
An anecdote from that financial period -- when the volcano erupted and shut down airports in Europe, the Icelanders joked, "Oh, we thought you said "Send ash, not cash!"

Just coming to the end of our first week with soft water and we are feeling the benefit already. We live in a hard water area (Telford)and our kettle was always furring up but not any longer! We used our area installer R C Owen & Co Ltd and the job was completed without fuss. Various difficulties were encountered with the layout of our kitchen but the person we dealt with overcome these with care. Kitchen units were removed, pipework re-arranged and everything refitted neatly and without mess… Read Full Review

We have had a Kinetico water softener 2020C for 6 years. Over that time the unit kept failing and hard water being dispensed. I decided enough was enough and wrote to Kinetico telling them of my issues. Well even after all those years Kinetico decided a replacement water softener should be offered free of charge. Further while swapping over the water softener Kinetico also offered to replace the QuickFlo water tank with a larger size so to improve the water pressure, which it did. Again free… Read Full Review

I recently had the Kinetico 2020C Water Softener installed by Hawker Softeners Ltd. This is a family run business and the service was extremely good. Firstly the person I dealt with came along to explain the Water softener to me and to cost and explain the installation process. Having agreed to go ahead his father came along a week later to do the installation. This took about 3 hours and how the system worked was again clearly explained. The system has now been working for 3 weeks and the… Read Full Review

I was impressed with the tidy installation of the unit under the sink. The soft water is most noticeable in the electric shower. Previous hard water caused my hair to break off and now there is very little hair loss/damage. An added bonus is that I have had to turn the temperature down on the shower and my hot water boiler.I am now also able to drink water straight from the tap. The soft water has also caused me to reduce the amounts of washing up liquid and wash powder that I use… Read Full Review

We chose the Kinetico 2020C over the Twintec S3 purely from the level of customer support offered by Advanced Water Softeners, our installers. AWS completed the site survey and quote within one week. The installation was completed on the date and time scheduled and the work done was to a very high standard by a very competent plumber. We were advised to have the unit installed in the garage to avoid using valuable cupboard space and this has turned out really well. It is easy to check salt… Read Full Review

We recently had to replace our old Waterside softener which regularly overflowed, it was 14 years old and you could no longer get parts easily.

The shower stays clean, the kettle and cups don't stain and best of all I have managed to reduce the thermostat on our hot water because of better heat transfer so it's a win win situation.

....there are similar block salt softeners that have clear lids with no hinges!
Clear lid makes it so easy to glance to see the salt, no need to use both hands just to open the lid just to check (and often have no need to fill yet)

The product works exceedingly well which is a blessing as we suffer from extremely hard water.

From what I have read I do not think there is any doubt that Kinetico is the best and it is certainly the most expensive. We had the 2020c fitted. We had local suppliers UKH20 and were not impressed; it was very much like dealing with a double glazing salesman where in the end you bought the product to get him off our back, but not really convinced that what he was telling us was true. Every time we made a decision (e.g to remain with hardwater on the outside taps, the fitting cost went up. We… Read Full Review

I am sorry to hear that you did not feel that the experience of getting a softener was as you thought it would be. This is certainly not how we do business and I can only apologise if you feel that our sales person was like a double glazing salesman. Can I ask if you purchased this though the Worthing office or the Bournemouth office so that I can ensure that your comments are passed on to the appropriate company for a response.

Apologies - I have only just been re authorised to use this site. Your salesman was from Worthing and, by the way, he was also very forceful with the poor plumber. The plumber didn't finish an outside fitting properly and the salesman made him go back that night 11.00 pm to fix the problem and come back with our money - or else ! This really wasn't necessary nor was it a pleasant way to conduct business. Also, we established from our own plumber that only small bore pipes had been fitted causing lack of pressure problems in the downstairs basin and shower. Finally, we have had no follow up from UKh20, to ask if we are happy with the installation , have any problems etc. I doubt after writing this that anybody will - but we are really quite nice people and feel that we have paid over the odds for not a particularly well done job.
Written on: 02/06/2015
Dear JDhayling, can you please email me direct or call me so that I can talk to you further and try to understand what the problems were. As I only have your user name then I need to check where and when the installation occurred. Many thanks
