The Funklordz are coming back.
With their fourth studio album, Heads Over Heels, dropping June 15, electro-funk duo David "Dave 1" Macklovitch and Patrick "P-Thugg" Gemayel—collectively known as Chromeo—are in the middle of a world tour that includes a stop at Brooklyn Bowl Las Vegas on April 12.
When last we saw Chromeo, Dave and P were closing out the final night of 2016's Life Is Beautiful festival, treating the masses to their irresistible, '80s-infused synth, drum machine beats and electric guitar licks.
It was magnificent, packed front-to-back with Chromeo's greatest hits, which is an odd thing to say as the duo didn't break through until the mid-aughts.
They're no nostalgia band, but every time they hit the town, fans show love like Chromeo's been in their lives for decades. They long for everything from "Fancy Footwork" to "Jealous," and they know every lyric.
"The songs from [2014's White Women], they feel like they're classics," Macklovitch says. "It's like now when I play 'Old 45's,' it gets as much love as [2007's] 'Bonafied Lovin.'"
Speaking with Vegas Seven on the same morning that Chromeo debuted its newest single, a collaboration with rapper DRAM titled "Must've Been," Macklovitch discusses, among other topics, the prospects of a new Las Vegas residency and why it took four years to release a new album.
The "Must've Been" video has you and P running around as little kids. Is this the Chromeo origin story?
It's pretty accurate [laughs]. We didn't meet when we were that young, but we've been goofing around since the age of 14. Our band is really about friendship, and that's what the video is all about.
It's been so long since we've heard new Chromeo music.
It took a while because we wanted to do a clean slate and just experiment with a bunch of stuff. I wanted to take three years but it took four years. I wanted to work on my vocals a little more, so it was like one year of boot camp. And then, when we started to put the songs together, we wanted more of a live feel and with a slower tempo. "Must've Been" is the fastest song on the album.
And DRAM is not the only guest star on Head Over Heels, which also features The Dream, French Montana and Raphael Saddiq.
It's more of a collaborative album, but we brought all of these voices into the Chromeo sound. It's not like DRAM sounds foreign. And The Dream [guesting on new track "Bedroom Calling"] sounds like DeBarge on that shit. When you hear the French Montana shit, it sounds like Biggie's "Hypnotize." And Raphael is playing drums and bass on a track called "Just Friends," which features a singer named Amber Mark. We got her on the come up and it's amazing.
Heads Over Heels has some stuff that's lighthearted, but there's also some deeper stuff, more emotional stuff than we've done before.
And for the tour, you recently posted on Twitter a callout for fans to request their favorite Chromeo tracks.
Yes. I put "Needy Girl" back in [the set list]! I put "Momma's Boy" back in; that was out.
Is "100%" coming back?
Not yet.
That's a classic. That song is like Miami Vice.
[Laughs] When we did that song, I said, "You gotta be wearing white pants—white pants and jacket."
You did a short residency at Drai's Nightclub in 2015. Ever consider doing another one in Las Vegas?
[Drai's] was cool, but the Vegas residency thing is more of a DJ thing, and we're more of a band. I would love to do a residency where we could just play funk and soul. It would be cool to have a residency where we play music that's different, and you don't have to hear the same old songs.
Your brother Alain (a.k.a A-Trak) is a current Drai's resident. You've gone on record saying without A-Trak, there'd be no Chromeo.
He helps us behind the scenes so much. He helped us put together the new live show; he was there at rehearsal, he's listened to every Chromeo demo since day one and championed us—he might as well be part of the band; he's just not in the photos. Not one thing that Chromeo does doesn't get run by him, and I'm the same with his stuff.

Caramelised Leeks, Lentils, & Wild Garlic Pesto
Wild garlic is just too good. I played around with this pesto recipe quite a bit before I was totally happy with it. I think it's absolutely brilliant now, and I hope you like it too! It works beautifully with simple, fresh pasta, but I love it used as a dressing as well, as it is here.
I was craving something warming and a little more filling when I made this, something along the lines of a risotto, however I tend to prefer lentils to rice. The addition of blue cheese makes this recipe rich, indulgent, and utterly delicious; the punchy, citrusy pesto cuts through this richness such that the overall dish does not feel heavy. It's a fantastic Spring supper!
The recipe below makes a generous supper for 2 people; the pesto recipe yields more than is needed for two, but any surplus will keep happily in the fridge for a week.
Caramelised Leeks & Lentils:
½ brown onion
2 leeks
2 handfuls of cooked puy lentils
salt & pepper
extra virgin olive oil
white wine
vegetable stock
50g creamy blue cheese (Saint Agur works wonderfully)
Wild Garlic, Lemon & Walnut Pesto:
2 generous handfuls of wild garlic leaves
2 generous handfuls of baby spinach
1 small handful of walnuts
4 tablespoons of grated parmesan
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
8 tablespoons of mild olive oil
sea salt
First, bring the lentils to the boil in salted water. Simmer for approximately 16 minutes, or until they are cooked about 80% of the way, (they will be cooked further with the leeks later). I sometimes like to cook lentils in a light vegetable stock as they take on a little flavour, so perhaps add a teaspoon of Bouillon to the boiling water.
Drain the lentils and allow the steam to billow off.
Finely dice the onion, and finely slice the leeks, washing them if necessary.
Heat a small slug of olive oil in a large frying pan and soften the diced onion for four minutes. Add the leeks and continue to sauté on a gentle heat for a further five minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, make the pesto! You can use a pestle and mortar, a hand blender, a food processor… anything that whizzes the ingredients finely. Check that you are happy with the seasoning, and adjust accordingly.
Now, turn up the heat under the leeks. Keep them moving around the pan, and allow them to take on a lovely caramelised brown colour. This should take about three more minutes.
Next, add the cooked lentils and mix well with the leeks.
Add a small splash of white wine to the pan, it should sizzle immediately - we want it to evapourate almost entirely.
Now add half a cup of hot vegetable stock, and simmer for two minutes or so. This will loosen any lovely bits of caramelised leek and onion that are stuck to the pan, and ensure the final dish is flavoursome and juicy.
Turn off the heat, and stir through some little dots of creamy blue cheese. These will melt wonderfully, enriching the lentils, and imparting a creamy, risotto-like texture.
Serve on warmed bowls or plates, and drizzle and dot the wild garlic pesto over top. I reserved a few of the wild garlic flowers for garnishing, and added some finely sliced radishes for crunch, colour and pepperiness!

January 7, 2010
Dear Pastors:
From my motel room in Brownsburg, Indiana, where the Bride of my Youth and I are, after having conducted her mother's funeral yesterday, I write you this snowy Friday morning.
This morning one of our Bible Chapters read was Jeremiah Chapter 29, which was written around 599 B.C. during the time that Nebuchadnezzar's carrying the Israelites away into captivity in Babylon.
Thus those "apples of God's own dear eye," the Everlastingly Covenanted People, whom some of you preachers, bless your hearts, believe like George W. Bush and Condi Rice, and the Presbyterians, Methodists, Lutherans, and even in our day the Huguenots, that, "we of the Church" have replaced the Jews and that God is through with them. It matters not to me whether you are a "died in the wool Texan," as my friend Garry Way is, or red neck as my friend Bryan Sharp is, or a Hoosier as my wife and our three sons are, or a Cajun as my friend Cecil Ballard is, or a Tar Heel as my brother-in-law Woody, whom my wife and I are to eat with he and Sandy and their son Junior and his wife Paula, this evening, are, YOU ARE WRONG, YOU ARE WRONG, YOU ARE WRONG!
But, as one of my Special Forces Colonel friends, James "Bo" Gritz, used to say, "Every man does that which he is big enough to do!" So, if you are big enough to flaunt "Replacement Doctrine Theology" in the eye of Almighty God, and "get away with it," have at it. It won't be one hair off my leg.
In Jeremiah 29 the Nation of Judah was reeling under the blow of captivity. Jehoiakim, like our "obamessiah", was a ruler, who would have brought even a "strong state" to the brink of ruin. Frivolous and superficial, despotic and brutal, Jehoiakim was greatly detested. And, for three years, Jehoiakim [2 Kings 24] observed his oath of allegiance to Nebuchadnezzar, at the end of which he refused to pay his annual tribute, trusting in Egypt to help him maintain his independence.
2Ki 24:1 In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him.
2 And the LORD sent against him bands of the Chaldees, and bands of the Syrians, and bands of the Moabites, and bands of the children of Ammon, and sent them against Judah to destroy it, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by his servants the prophets.
3 Surely at the commandment of the LORD came this upon Judah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Manasseh, according to all that he did;
4 And also for the innocent blood that he shed: for he filled Jerusalem with innocent blood; which the LORD would not pardon. [A byword here, the same God that was against the shedding of innocent blood, the sin of the sodomites, and treatment of his chosen people, the JEW, has not changed his mind about those things in 2010.]
5 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Then, we read that Jehoiakim goes out into eternity to meet his maker and give "an account" for all he had done, and he was succeeded by his youthful son of 18 years, Jehoiachin, who ruled but three brief months; for Nebuchadnezzar came up against Jerusalem and besieged the city and forced the king and his "queen-mother, his servants, and the officers of his court to go into captivity to Babylon [597 B.C.]
6 So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers: and Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead.
7 And the king of Egypt came not again any more out of his land: for the king of Babylon had taken from the river of Egypt unto the river Euphrates all that pertained to the king of Egypt.
8 Jehoiachin was eighteen years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. And his mother's name was Nehushta, the daughter of Elnathan of Jerusalem. {Jehoiachin is also called Jeconiah and Coniah.]
9 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father had done.
10 At that time the servants of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up against Jerusalem, and the city was besieged.
11 And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it.
12 And Jehoiachin the king of Judah went out to the king of Babylon, he, and his mother, and his servants, and his princes, and his officers: and the king of Babylon took him in the eighth year of his reign.
13 And he carried out thence all the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and cut in pieces all the vessels of gold which Solomon king of Israel had made in the temple of the LORD, as the LORD had said.
14 And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land.
15 And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king's mother, and the king's wives, and his officers, and the mighty of the land, those carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon.
16 And all the men of might, even seven thousand, and craftsmen and smiths a thousand, all that were strong and apt for war, even them the king of Babylon brought captive to Babylon.
17 And the king of Babylon made Mattaniah his father's brother king in his stead, and changed his name to Zedekiah.
18 Zedekiah was twenty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Hamutal, the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
19 And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, according to all that Jehoiakim had done.
20 For through the anger of the LORD it came to pass in Jerusalem and Judah, until he had cast them out from his presence, that Zedekiah rebelled against the king of Babylon.
Jehoiachin lay in prison 37 long years, till Evilmerodach, the successor of Nebuchadnezzar, released him. 2Ki 25:27 And it came to pass in the seven and thirtieth year of the captivity of Jehoiachin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, that Evilmerodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
28 And he spake kindly to him, and set his throne above the throne of the kings that were with him in Babylon;
29 And changed his prison garments: and he did eat bread continually before him all the days of his life.
30 And his allowance was a continual allowance given him of the king, a daily rate for every day, all the days of his life.
Now, whether I am an "Adopted Okie," a "Hoosier," a "Red Neck," a "Tar Heel," a "Cajun" or a "died in the wool Texan," whatever I say, whatever I write, best be in "tune" with the Holy Word of the Living God relative to the "Everlastingly Covenanted People," or I shall only be "sounding brass and tinkling cymbal."
The Prophet Ezekiel, who shared Jehoiachin's captivity, regarding him as the last legitimate ruler of Judah as the first 13 verses of Ezekiel 19 brings out, and verse 14 solidifies: 14 And fire is gone out of a rod of her branches, which hath devoured her fruit, so that she hath no strong rod to be a scepter to rule. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.
Brethren, the Judah then that remained, no more deserved the "name." Only the miserable dregs remained. The choicest spirits were taken into exile. Ezekiel was among them, and possibly Daniel and his three companions, although, they may have been brought to Babylon at an earlier period.
2Kings 24:14 tells us: And he carried away all Jerusalem, and all the princes, and all the mighty men of valour, even ten thousand captives, and all the craftsmen and smiths: none remained, save the poorest sort of the people of the land. To these melancholy captives Jeremiah addressed a letter of cheer and consolation in Jer 29:1-14.
I know Brethren that I am no "Jeremiah," but from the perspective which I see when I hear and know of all the "brethren" who are falling for the "Catholic Doctrine of Replacement Theology" hook, line, and sinker, sometimes I think, "Man, you sure do look lonely and pathetic." And, yet, Jeremiah was not absolutely alone; for there were Zephaniah, Nahum and habakkuk, and probably others, who were contemporizes, both in time, and certainly in "doctrine."
The "false leaders" back in Jeremiah's day, as in ours, for example, said, "Come, and let us devise devices against Jeremiah." Jer 18:18 Then said they, Come, and let us devise devices against Jeremiah; for the law shall not perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not give heed to any of his words.
Such words, to Jeremiah, must have been as exasperating. Indeed, it called forth from Jeremiah the most powerful and passionate invective in all his prophecies.
Jer 18:21 Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.
22 Let a cry be heard from their houses, when thou shalt bring a troop suddenly upon them: for they have digged a pit to take me, and hid snares for my feet.
23 Yet, LORD, thou knowest all their counsel against me to slay me: forgive not their iniquity, neither blot out their sin from thy sight, but let them be overthrown before thee; deal thus with them in the time of thine anger.
And even Ezekiel likewise indulges in caustic sarcasm concerning them, when he said: Eze 13:10 Because, even because they have seduced my people, saying, Peace; and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and, lo, others daubed it with untempered morter: Brethren, if our "mortar" is untempered, then our built walls won't stand!
Now, what resulted was a "most instructive contest" taking place between Jeremiah and Hananiah, in the Temple, the priests and the people being judges.
The "question" at issue was the "duration of the Captivity." Jeremiah had said it would last two generations; Hananiah predicted that within two years the exiles would return, with Jehoiachin at their head.
Jeremiah was right; but, the people, of course, sided with Hananiah, using my parlance, saving themselves "time and money," which I've always taught one has to expend if you are gonna help people. Jeremiah was put to silence, for it is always easier to believe "smooth things" than it is things which cost "time and money."
The effect of such controversaries, then, as today, was to "confuse" and perplex the people. Remember now, Scriptures plainly teach "God is not the author of confusion." All external criterion was wanting for the "weigh in, in the balances" with God Almighty.
I received a text message from a young preacher this week about another controversary raging in our time, with certainly the textual matter, simply saying "sad." Thats how Jeremiah must have felt. And, thats how this almost 71 year ole beat-up, worn-out, preacher feels about what is being said about "us-the Church" replacing the "Everlastingly Covenanted People."
The fase prophets preached "peace." Jeremiah preached "punishment." They emphasized the Power of Jehovah God; Jeremiah emphasized 'HIS MORAL BEING AND RIGHTEOUSNESS.'
They stood on the moral level of the masses; Jeremiah was laboring to raise the masses to a higher plane.
Their words did nothing to awaken conscience; Jeremiah was ever reminding them of their sins, and the inevitable retribution that awaited them.
Time alone demonstrated the untruthfulness of their predictions. The cause of their blindness was their "inadequate conception of the ethical nature of Jehovah God."
In justifying "Scripture with Scripture," Brethren, in this context, it is important that we look at the "most graphic picture" painted in Lamentations 4:13 For the sins of her prophets, and the iniquities of her priests, that have shed the blood of the just in the midst of her,
14 They have wandered as blind men in the streets, they have polluted themselves with blood, so that men could not touch their garments.
15 They cried unto them, Depart ye; it is unclean; depart, depart, touch not: when they fled away and wandered, they said among the heathen, They shall no more sojourn there.
Scripture has many applications, and what we need do is apply these scriptures to our
controversaries of today.
To change the subject, but, to stay with the same people, let me mention something that my Jewish Friend Gil Ronen writes from Israel:
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak warned Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Thursday against "any new assault" on Gaza, CNN quoted state-run Nile TV as reporting. Mubarak and Netanyahu met in Sharm el-Sheikh to discuss the negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
Egypt's state press said that Mubarak emphasized to Netanyahu "the necessity for Israel to reconsider its position and policies, and to take the initiative and conduct procedures that will build trust with the national Palestinian authorities."
A statement on the Prime Minister's website said that "Netanyahu reiterated that he believes that a peace agreement between Israel and the Palestinians is possible provided that the latter are willing to end the conflict."
Netanyahu "asked President Mubarak to act to persuade the Palestinians to move to direct, intensive and serious negotiations -- in which all core issues will be raised -- forthwith."
The PM's Office added that "Netanyahu said that Israel is committed to aggressively fighting terrorist elements in Gaza that endanger its security and peace."
An evangelist that I trained at OBC stated some months ago, in opposition to our positions on the Jews, "What is the big deal about the Jews? What about the Chinamen?" Show me in the Holy Scriptures where Jehovah God made a covenant, an Everlasting Covenant, by the way, with the "Chinese" and I will see your point! It's not there!
As far as this ole man is concerned, it is really a matter of "Whose side are you on?" I am unequivocally on the side of the Jews. You can be on the side of the Egyptians if you want, I am not. Now, yes, I would like for there to be peace between the "so-called Palestinians" and the Jews, but, of Ishmael, the writer of the Book of Genesis said, "his hand shall be against every man...." Throughout the sordid history of the Ishmaelites, that has been the truth.
Whatever the Jews find that Hamas, one of the proxy armies for the Iranians, are doing in Gaza, which endangers the security and stability of the nation of Israel, or its citizens, then, regardless of what Muburak has said, Israel has to take care of "matters."
In what I have mentioned to you from Jeremiah's writings, the time frame involved Jehoiakim, who had come to the throne as the "vassal' of Egypt, with the consequence being that the Egyptian party was dominant in Jerusalem.
Jeremiah came on the scene as the chief representative of the party that favored the supremacy of the Chaldeans "as the only way of safety." Time, and history, have both proved Jeremiah right.
Jeremiah 26 shows that the "naysayers" with the populace, brought Jeremiah before the civil authorities, urging that capital punishment should be inflicted on him for his threatening.
There were those, thank the Lord, in Judah, who endeavored to protect ole Jeremiah, and appealed to the precedent of Micah the Morasthite, who had uttered a "like prophecy" in the reign of Hezekiah; and so for a time, Jeremiah escaped.
Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, seems to have had influence to secure Jeremiah's safety. In the fourth year of Jehoiakim, Jeremiah was commanded to write the predictions which had been given him. Brethren, let me say this, "Ole JAV would be "scared to death" to take any position which might contravene the only possible thing of safety which he sees in Genesis 12:3, "Bless the Jews." Otherwise, any other position curses them.
Jeremiah deputed Baruch to write the predictions and to read them publicly on the fast day. Baruch was summoned before the princes, who advised that both he and Jeremiah should conceal themselves, while they endeavored to influence the mind of the king by reading the roll to them.
But, Jehoiakim read three or four leaves and then destroyed the roll. He gave orders for the immediate arrest of Baruch and Jeremiah, who, however, were preserved from the angry king.
The Prophet, at the command of God, rewrote the roll, adding "besides unto them many like words" [Jer 36:22]. To this period is assigned the prophecy in the valley of Benhinnom [Jer 19,] and his ill treatment at the hand of Pashur.
Moving then on to Zedeikah's reign, B.C. 593, Hananiah prophesied that the power of the Chaldeans would be destroyed and the captives restored from Babylon [Jer 28:3.] Hananiah corroborated his prophecy by taking off Jeremiah's neck the yoke which he wore by Divine Command [27:2.]
Jeremiah then consequently was told what to prophesy. Jer 28:13 Go and tell Hananiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD; Thou hast broken the yokes of wood; but thou shalt make for them yokes of iron.
It was probably not until the latter part of the reign of Zedekiah that Jeremiah was put in confinement, as we find that "they had not put him into prison" when the army of Nebuchadnezzar commenced the siege of Jerusalem [37:4-5.]
The approach of the Egyptian army, and the consequent withdrawal for a time of the Chaldeans, brightened the prospects of the Jews, and the king entreated Jeremiah to pray to the Lord for them.
The answer, however, received "from the Lord," was that the Egyptians would go to their own land, and that the Chaldeans would return and destroy the city [37:7-8.]
Well, all this angered the "princes," as I am sure some of the words of this ole man does the "dandies" of our day, so Jeremiah's "dandies" made the departure of Jeremiah from the city the "pretext" of accusing him of desiring to the Chaldeans.
Jeremiah's "dandies' got him cast into the prison in spite of his denial, where he would doubtless have perished but for the interposition of Ebedmelech, one of the royal eunuchs [37:12-38.]
The king seems to have been favorably inclined toward the prophet, but, for fear of his "dandies," consulted with Jeremiah secretly [38:14-28.]
In one of those secret interviews Jeremiah obtained a milder imprisonment in the "guard-court" belonging to the royal citadel [37:17,] and while in prison he bought, with all requisite formalties, the field at Anathoth, which his kinsman Hanameel wished to get rid of [32:6-9] THUS SHOWING JEREMIAH'S FAITH IN HIS COUNTRY'S FUTURE.
I am not a gambler. I did marry a "gambler's" daughter! Bless her heart, even as a member of Bethesda Baptist Church, Brownsburg, Indiana, Mammer, my 'now-in-heaven' mother in law, liked to buy her lottery tickets. She would say, "Now, James Allen, you know that one of these days my ship is going to come in!"
But, were I a mind to "gamble," I would never bet on the Ishmaelites against the Jews. That is a bad lottery ticket boys [by the way, I've never bought even one lottery ticket.]
Preachers, if you can help me with my "Deaf Football Players" trip, it looks like right now that I am going to have to come up with something in the neighborhood of $7,000.00 by Feb. 12th to pull some of those deaf "chestnuts out of the fire," who are going with me! $50, $100, $500 or a $1,000 would really be a blessing on these expenses which I shall have to come up with. God will bless you as a consequence. Checks should be made out to Yedidim of Israel and sent to Jo Harding, 5517 NW 23rd, OKC, Ok., 73127. Apprise her please what it is for!
When we do the "Booklet" we are going to make up, with the 12 offensive plays [1 per page] to give to the IDF units, we will put your name in the back of that booklet. Each page will show blocking assignments. I will then take those assignments and make "3 Lessons per page from Football about Combat." Thats what we shall leave with the IDF units. All who support us ont his trip will have their names on the back cover of that 12 page booklet.
I remain, on the side of the Jews! You "dandies" can line up with the Egyptians!

On purging
Lately I've been purging. In addition to purging, I've been spending less. Buying less. Chucking more.
Books? Gone. Replaced with digital books on my Kindle. Clothes? Gone. If I didn't wear it in 2009, I won't wear it in 2010. Gone. Little random pieces of lord knows what I acquired—giving away.
Thankfully, there's an excellent charitable organization in the area, the Vietnam Veterans of America. They come to my door and pick up my donations, easy as could be. Toys, my old printer, sports equipment, kitchenware, books, sheets, duvets, etc. — they take it all.
I read this article in the New York Times today about a minimalist couple who, after reading a challenge to live with only 100 personal items, did exactly that. The article goes on to discuss how average spending has diminished in light of the recession, and consumer habits are changing. People buy less. Save more.
And it's been a truism for eons that extra cash always makes life a little easier. Studies over the last few decades have shown that money, up to a certain point, makes people happier because it lets them meet basic needs. The latest round of research is, for lack of a better term, all about emotional efficiency: how to reap the most happiness for your dollar.
So just where does happiness reside for consumers? Scholars and researchers haven't determined whether Armani will put a bigger smile on your face than Dolce & Gabbana. But they have found that our types of purchases, their size and frequency, and even the timing of the spending all affect long-term happiness.
One major finding is that spending money for an experience — concert tickets, French lessons, sushi-rolling classes, a hotel room in Monaco — produces longer-lasting satisfaction than spending money on plain old stuff.
Makes total sense.
And then, there's this statement:
Before credit cards and cellphones enabled consumers to have almost anything they wanted at any time, the experience of shopping was richer, says Ms. Liebmann of WSL Strategic Retail. "You saved for it, you anticipated it," she says.
In other words, waiting for something and working hard to get it made it feel more valuable and more stimulating.
In fact, scholars have found that anticipation increases happiness. Considering buying an iPad? You might want to think about it as long as possible before taking one home. Likewise about a Caribbean escape: you'll get more pleasure if you book a flight in advance than if you book it at the last minute.
So, my spending moratorium will do me good, right? Because I am anticipating September 1 with fervor?
Aw, I love this

This is all for today, folks:
I think I had a heart attack just from the picture.
In which my brother turns 21
I don't remember too much about when my brother was born. I remember my Mom being pregnant, sorta. I remember it was very hot and I was at a neighbor's house. I was wearing some type of green jumper outfit—as in, matching shirt and shorts.
I hear from Mom that when Mark was born I crawled into the hospital bed with her and cried.
I also hear that when Mark was a baby, I begged to have the same food as him—so my Mom would heat me up baby food because I was acting like such a, well, baby.
I'm not proud of that last part, btw. (And, Mark, I totally love you now!)
BUT! Mark turned 21 today, the last exciting birthday of your life, and one that makes you feel so awesome that you're allowed to buy alcohol until you realize that it's just…buying something in a store. (But don't tell him that yet.)
Scenes from the birthday crabfest:
At the dog park
When I say the title of this post in my head, I'm saying it to that car wash song. FYI.
AP and I took PJ to the Shirlington Dog Park on Wednesday, where he had a rip-rollin' good time.
Blurry hot happy puppy face.
He made lots of friends!
P.S. Remember when PJ was this big?
P.P.S. Last night's sunset, just for something completely different:
When your parents watch Jersey Shore
My parents informed me yesterday that they started DVRing Jersey Shore, because they wanted to see "Why Corzine was so upset about what it was doing to Jersey."
These quotes are from my parents' viewing of the first episode of this season. Enjoy.
Dad: Whoa, is that girl like 3 feet tall?
Mom: Look how close she's sitting to the steering wheel. That is such a hazard.
Dad: HA! Look at that guy's hair [Pauly D]. What's wrong with him? Why does he speak like that?
Dad: Can we get subtitles? I don't understand what she is saying.
Dad: Hol, did you hear that definition of a double bagger? HAHAHAHA.
Mom: Wait, who's that guy now?
Dad: That's Ronnie. He used to date Sammie. Pay attention.
Dad: Wait, what is the difference between a grenade and a landmine?
Me: A grenade is a fat ugly cheek, a landmine is a skinny ugly chick.
Mom: Well, in that case, Snooki's a grenade, right?
Mom: Why does that girl like pickles so much?
Dad: Why are that girl's pockets hanging out of her shorts? That's dumb.
Mom, watching Ronnie make out with two girls at once: That boy is going to have a headache tomorrow.
Dad, as it cut to commercial break: UGH! They just cut out right as Ronnie and Sammie were going to see each other again!!!
Mom: What is "So-co?"
Mom: Vinny's ugly.
Me: He's the only semi-normal one.
Mom: I hate him.
Dad, at the end: OH man. I can't wait to see what's going to happen when Angelina tells Sammie that Ronnie kissed those girls.
Mom: Wait, we're going to watch this again?
Dad: Hell yeah we are!
My parents are awesome.

Six new teachers and a new Vice-Principal, Shirley Krezel, will bring new blood and energy to Abaco Central High School for the year 2013-14, but Ricardo Ferguson is still at the helm, committed to lead the ship with new concepts and a firm hand.
The Principal's goals for the new school year are to continue improving the academic performance by increasing the strides made last year as well as to provide more support in vocational areas. Two new subjects are being introduced for the time being in that field: carpentry and pastry baking.
After school programs in English, Mathematics and Social Studies to prepare for the BJC and BGCSE examinations are being offered. Mr. Ferguson is also working on implementing a better in-house system of competition in debate and English.
Academic re-enforcement will not lessen sports activities according to the principal, and Mr. Ferguson said he is looking at an active sports program. Last year's PE teacher, Ms. Brown will be helped by Christine Genoa who is replacing Vogel Williams, who retired. The two former national athletes will also be coaching students in track & field, basketball and most probably softball. The Principal himself will continue to coach the senior basketball team.
The last year's mark of 580 students will most likely be easily surpassed. "We are still registering some kids" said the Principal on September 6, adding that there is a large influx of students coming from local private schools, and schools from Nassau and Eleuthera. He explained that he had to put a freeze on youths over 18, wanting to join twelfth grade for only one year, especially those with mediocre previous school performance. These students are being redirected to the GED program.
He anticipated that the contingent of twelfth graders this year will be of approximately seventy students who will be divided into three classes. His hopes are that at least 95% of those students will graduate with a better GPA than last year.
There will be a PTA meeting on September 19, during which a new board will be elected. Two parents have expressed their interest in serving on the board and it is expected that the Urban Renewal organization will be involved with the school this year also.
Last year's Acting Vice-Principal, Sophia Miller is now the subject coordinator in Mathematics. Nicolas Emepue has been re-assigned on another island, as well as Mrs. Thompson. Mrs. Ramdin went back to Guyana and religious studies' teacher, Wendy Rolle, resigned from education.
The academic staff of ACH will thus be increased by two teachers.

Chances are you've never attended an International Hop Growers Convention (IHGC) meeting. It's not widely publicized and meetings appeal to die hard hop geeks from around the world who want to know what's going on in the market. There aren't any special handshakes, passwords or mysterious symbolism, but there are some interesting traditions dating back, some say, as far as the 15th century.
During the three annual meetings of the IHGC, representatives share information from their respective countries about increases in acreage and demand and discuss market prices for different varieties. I know … it may not sound so exciting, but if you buy and sell hops for a living, it actually is very useful and interesting information! Hops are kind of an addiction for us … so; yes … we attend all the meetings I'm proud (and slightly embarrassed) to admit.
The most recent meeting was in Paris last week. A small group attended, but they represented the major hop producing countries in the world. Cautious optimism filled the room and plenty of caveats abounded as country representatives reported what average yields "should be" in 2016. After the drought in Europe, which resulted in some countries' yields being down by nearly 40%, representatives were a bit hesitant to over promise on yields.
Looking at the data from afar year on year, it appears hop production is up over 20% from 2015. That's a bit misleading though as the drought seriously affected yields. According to the IHGC data, worldwide acreage is up about 8.5%. Fifty-seven percent of that increase is happening in the United States, which makes sense as demand for American hops are increasing worldwide as the trend for American-style craft beer is spreading like mad.
In a nutshell, it seems everybody is planting hops. The countries in attendance report that nearly all of those hops have been sold. The United States reported that 98% of the anticipated crop is already sold for 2016, 2017 and 2018. The anticipated sold ahead percentage drops to a mere 80% sold ahead in 2019 and 2020 with 50% of the crop already sold for 2021.
You're probably asking yourself, "How the heck does anybody even know what the crop in 2021 will be?" That's a good question. Fortunately, I served as Chairman of the Economic Committee to the IHGC for several years, so I can tell you. The organization takes this year's anticipated production, which is calculated using 5-year average yields, and project that number forward. Acreage is likely to continue to expand during that time so the actual percent sold ahead could be a bit lower. Demand from larger brewers however, will likely enter into the equation and could change the trajectory of the market. You can see the challenge with the data. A lot of the numbers from the IHGC are that way. They are best viewed as a guide to show the direction and velocity of the industry and the market. If you're going to look at them, you should take them with a grain of salt, but don't assume they are 100% correct, because they are not. That, unfortunately, deters many people from attending the meetings.

Are you making paracord bracelets in BULK
What's Included In This Business Starter Package:
Directions and Video Links To Many Of Today's Popular Bracelet and Other Knot Designs Like The Famous King Cobra Weave So You Can Learn To Make Professional Looking Bracelets, Collars, Slings and More.
I would like to point out a couple of VERY IMPORTANT details on all of these JIGS.
The most important thing is the base, our Jig base is constructed out of one solid-single piece to provide years of service, not several pieces glued or screwed together. More importantly, pay attention to the bolt on the moving part. Most bolts are just a regular bolt which is very hard to keep tight. We only use top quality stainless steel Carriage Bolts that feature a square on the end of it which is locked in a special precision made groove that has been laser cut and measured to hold the bolt in place and lock it, so you can easily tighten it up. Further more, we are the ONLY manufacturer of a true professional series jig that has been used by military organizations throughout the USA. The most unique feature of our Professional Survival Bracelet Jig that no other company or seller can offer is that our jig features 4 unique precision engraved rulers individually calibrated to each individual sized buckle or clasp, thus, allowing the user to make custom survival bracelets to the customers exact size requirements. All the other jig builders on ebay and elsewhere are "hobby" builders and make a good basic jig, but if you look closely at the ruler you'll notice that they are all cutting .68¢ Home Depot or Lowes generic yard sticks and they are either screwing or gluing them to the base of their unit. They then have several sized buckles or other hook ups that somehow are supposed to make accurately sized bracelets from these generic throwaway yardsticks. But common sense will tell you that if each clasp has a different length, than one ruler is simply not enough. If your serious about starting a business making survival bracelets you already know that trying to sell your customers a bracelet that is incorrectly sized is going to severely reduce your repeat sales and waste your time having to remake customers bracelets and deal with their complaints and negative feedback. That's why for years now serious businesses like Army Navy and Police Supply Stores as well as various current and retired military members and organizations have been using our Professional Series Jig. And now for the first time our popular jigs are being offered to the general public. So if your serious about providing your family and your future customers a premium product please consider our Professional Series Jig.
What's Makes Our Jig Better or Different:1) 100% Made In The USA.2) Made By Disabled Men and Women who served this Country.3) Solid 1 Piece Precision Laser Cut Base. Most Others Use 3 Or More Pieces Which Simply Can Not Hold Up To The Stress Of Making Tight Knots4) Precision Laser Engraved Rulers Individually Lined Up For Each Size Buckle.5) Fully Adjustable From 2" to 22 1/2" inches To Make Anything From Key chains To Bracelets and even Collars For Small Dogs(Larger Sizes Available Including Large Size Dog Collar Jig and Rifle Sling Jig)6) Enough Supplies To Start Your Very Own Paracord Bracelet Business. In Fact You Can Sell The First 4 Bracelets For Enough To Pay For This Package.7) Our Starter Kits Include Real Military 550 Paracord. Which Means It's Breaking Strength Is Just Over 550lbs.Note: Not All "Survival" Bracelets Are Made With Real 550 Cordage and That Is Going To Upset People When They Try To Survive Using CheapChinese Crap Cordage With A Inferior Breaking Strength. True Survivalist And Military Personnel Know The Difference And will ONLY Use Real 550 Cord.8) We Are A True Wholesale Supplier And Can Supply Our Customers With All Their Needs From Buckles and Clasps, Real 550 Paracord, and Custom Engraved Tags, Dog Tags, Knot Tying Instructions, and Nylon Based Colored Paracord.

WalleyeThe best walleye fishing recently has been offshore from Lorain to Huron in water over 40' deep. The sandbar and deeper water to the west of the sandbar have been productive, along with 42 to 44' of water from Cranberry Creek to Huron. Many of the fish being caught have ranged from 15 to 18" from the 2003 year class, but a few larger fish up to 11 pounds have been reported. Spoons or crawler harnesses trolled deep with dipsy divers, jet divers or downriggers have produced the most consistent catches.
Yellow PerchYellow perch fishing has been excellent 2 to 3 miles N of Geneva, 2 to 3 miles N from Ashtabula to Conneaut in 52' of water, and from the Cleveland Crib to 4 miles NE of Edgewater park in 52' of water. A perch spreader tipped with shiners is the most popular set-up. Fish have ranged from 7-13 inches.
SteelheadSteelhead are starting to be caught by casting off of the Fairport Harbor pier, the Chagrin River and Euclid Creek with small spoons or spinners. Fish have ranged from 16 to 28".
Lake Erie surface temperatures range from 58 to 64 degrees.

Sometimes the esophagus becomes narrow; this may be caused by acid reflux, which can scar the esophagus. Patients who have a narrowed esophagus tend to feel like food gets caught in the chest region. Other reasons for esophageal narrowing include excess tissues, esophageal cancer, radiation scarring, and other digestive disorders.
A doctor will dilate—or stretch—a narrowed area of your esophagus via endoscopy or with a weighted dilator. You will receive mild sedation (conscious sedation) during the procedure. Most patients won't feel anything.
The purpose of esophageal dilation
Through dilating the esophagus, your doctor is able to dilate or stretch the part of your esophagus that has narrowed. The esophagus is a soft tube that transfers food and liquid from your throat to your stomach. If you have difficulty consuming food and experience pain due to the constriction of the esophagus, this procedure could be beneficial for you.
Injuries and changes to the tissue of the esophagus may cause damage and subsequent swelling. Upon healing, scar tissue can form in place of damaged areas. This resulting scar tissue can be hard and stiff, constricting the esophagus. A narrowed esophagus makes swallowing food difficult and uncomfortable. Food may feel "stuck" in the chest. Esophagus cancer, esophageal rings, any esophageal motility disorder, esophageal webs, scarring from radiation treatment, can also cause esophageal narrowing.
Prepare for the procedure
At least six hours before your examination, you should avoid drinking and eating anything. Inform your doctor of any medications you're currently taking, especially aspirin products and blood thinners. Your doctor may suggest that you adjust dosage of some medications prior to your examination. Also inform your doctor of any medications that you're allergic to, medical conditions, and whether you usually require antibiotics before dental procedures because you may need similar antibiotics prior to the esophageal dilation.
What to expect
Your gastrointestinal physician will dilate a narrowed area of your esophagus via endoscopy or with a weighted dilator. You will receive mild sedation during the procedure.
There are two ways your doctor can dilate your esophagus:
- An endoscope will be passed through your mouth into your esophagus, stomach, and duodenum. Your breathing will remain normal. Your doctor will decide whether to use a dilating balloon or plastic dilators in combination with a guiding wire to dilate your esophagus.
- Or, a tapered dilating instrument will be passed through your mouth into your esophagus. X-rays may be used by your doctor during the esophageal dilation procedure to ensure accuracy.
After the procedure
After your esophageal dilation and a short period of observation, you can return to normal activities. Arrange for someone to give you a ride home due to the sedatives you will be given. When you feel that your throat is no longer numb and the aesthetics have worn off, you may drink water. Most patients don't have any symptoms after their esophageal dilation and resume eating the day after. Some experience a slightly sore throat after the procedure that will only last until the next day.
Repeat dilations
Repeated dilations are required based on the degree and cause. This procedure can be repeated, therefore patients can have their esophagus dilated gradually, decreasing complication risks.

adapt, modify your business plan and steer
the ship in the right direction," East explains.
Modern, active companies have access to
secured and unsecured debt as well as equity,
and are able to add value to their properties
by improving them. "That tends to completely offset the increase in interest rates."
Altegris conducted its study, which did
not examine REIT performance in periods
of stable or declining interest rates, based
on what occurred historically rather than
on projections of future REIT performance. "Because nobody really knows what
interest rates are going to do," says East.
These effects of interest rates on REIT
performance don't just vary by period; individual REITs appear to be more or less
affected. "At Green Street, we've gone back
and looked at several points in time when
interest rates rose abruptly, and there is no
consistent pattern," Sullivan tells Forum.
In theory, he says, "You would expect that
REITs with more bond-like cash flow characteristics would get hit the hardest. These
would include triple-net lease REITs, mall
REITs and CBD office owners. And you'd
expect short-lived leased property types such
as hotels and apartments to fare better." In
practice, he says, "those patterns have played
out in some instances when rates rose
One of the
last things
REIT management
should be
doing is forecasting
interest rates. Instead,
they should focus on
things in their control. "
Green Street Advisors
quickly, but did not every time. Why not? It
goes back to 'why are rates rising?'"
Sullivan acknowledges that as interest
rates begin to creep upward, there's a possibility that investors' anticipation of negative effects on REIT metrics will cause them
to look elsewhere to place their money—
including investment vehicles other than
commercial real estate. "Investors are
always looking for the best risk-adjusted
returns," he says. "Rising interest rates
cause prices to reset across the capital markets. It would only be natural for REIT
investors, particularly those who were
attracted to REITs by their dividend yields,
to take a look around at alternatives."
However, he points out that an investment's
total return, and not just its current return,
is where investors should focus.
And even if the interest rate horizon suggests the possibility of squalls ahead, Sullivan
doesn't think REIT executives should be
watching the skies. "One of the last things
REIT management teams should be doing
is forecasting interest rates," he says.
"Instead, they should focus on things in
their control, including the operations of
their existing properties, the prices they pay
to acquire new properties, the decision to
develop or not and the structure of their
balance sheet. If I had a dollar for every
REIT CEO and CFO who told me 'rates
can't go lower' when the 10-year Treasury
was at 4%, then 3.5%, then 3%, then 2.5%,
I'd have quite a large pile of dollar bills." ◆

I just started a new job. I hate it. I hate to go up every morning and go to work, I hate sitting in that office and most of all I hate that I have to be so F**ING responsible and go to bed in time so that I will be all fresh at WORK the next day.
Now, I have a pretty OK job, I don't really dare telling exactly what I do, because you would immediately think I am the most boring person in the world, but I work in an office. Yepp… in the finance department. Yepp… it IS as boring as it sounds. But hey, it pays your bills 🙂
Anyway, the last 2 weeks have been my first at this new job, and anyone who has been in the same position kind of knows that what you do in your first 2 weeks you could under pressure manage to do in 2 days. Yepp people, this DOES mean that I am really really bored at work.
I know that I should enjoy, take advantage etc, because in some time I will be all busy (supposedly) and WISH for having nothing to do, but seriously – this is not funny. Problem is that as I am NEW, I can't really sit around and surf the internet all day long (open-space-issue) so I have to look like I am really busy!
In order to keep this a bit short, I thought I'd summarize my day for you… I think it says it all.
09:00 Arrive to office. Make coffee. Change my mind. Throw away coffee. Make tea. Go to the toilet. Open all programs and applications (makes you LOOK busy). Check mail. Update mailbox. Update mailbox again in case anything went wrong the first time. Have another cup of coffee.
10:00 Get 10 min worth of work to do – I finished it in 30 min.
10:30 Created an excel sheet which automatically calculates how many % of my working day is left as of any moment (based on the time on my PC). The percentage automatically gets green when it gets over 50% (took me 10 min to find out how to do that… remember, I operate now on a GERMAN keyboard at work).
11:00 Checks my spreadsheet again, and realize that it would be interesting to see how much I earn per minute, so I calculated that too. Check my mail. Have a cup of tea.
11.15 Check how many % of my day is left… and update my mailbox again. Hey, mail from my sister – I have never mailed her so often as the last 2 weeks! Awesome, I can spend 20 min on that!
11.30 Start thinking about what to have for lunch… start thinking out strategies whether it is best to have lunch at 12 or at 13; theoretically 13h would be better because then only half the day is left when back from lunch.
11.45 print my excel sheet just to see how it looks printed. Walk to printer room – get printout. tell my boss I don't have much to do. Receive 15 min worth of work – take 30 min to do the job.
12.15 only 45 min left to lunch! Print some papers, go back and forth to the printer. Look through all papers I have on my desk (work already DONE), with a somewhat analytical look on my face. Have a coffee.
13.00 Go for lunch!
14:00 Back from lunch! Check mail. Update spreadsheet…. yeah! It's green now! awesome! have a coffee. check mail again. BORED.
As of this moment things start to get VERY VERY difficult and time has never passed as slowly before… EVER. Basically, I repeat the morning-spiral over and over again, as I sit there and think about great ideas in my head. Even though, building a miniature farm from paper-clips might not be what I am SUPPOSED to think at work… it keeps me busy.
I was thinking… would be awesome if there is a template (like a "skin") for your browser that automatically converts facebook into an excel-sheet in terms of layout whenever you use the page. In that way I could hang on facebook all day long and it would look as if I worked 🙂 Maybe I should invent things like this and open my own company… seriously, I bet the demand is HUGE!
I can NOT be the only one out there!!!
Seriously, if you managed to read all the way down here – you are totally AWESOME!
(or are you bored and at work?)
I promise to give you some better post very very soon… muhahaha, I am having some great ideas here!
PS: Do you mind if tomorrow's post is in Xls-format?
PS2: Please forgive me for this post. I really hate my job.

Adam Lambert needs more �American Idol� praise like Michael Phelps needs another Olympic gold medal.
Adam Lambert needs more �American Idol� praise like Michael Phelps needs another Olympic gold medal.
But, according to Paula Abdul, Adam is the Michael Phelps of �Idol� and he was the one contestant who really earned the praise Tuesday night.
(Let�s hope the comparison to Phelps doesn�t extend to � uh � things one smokes.)
Everyone was good on Tuesday night, which is going to make the Wednesday final four decision tough.
I disagree with Simon on his assessment of Allison Iraheta. She was my favorite after Adam. Her smoky voice made �Someone Who�ll Watch Over Me� pretty close to unique.
I say pretty close because the whole night I was waiting for someone to do what the judges keep saying they want: Make a song unique, original, fresh, contemporary.
Those requests/complaints didn�t come up a lot on Rat Pack night, even though the songs everyone except Adam sang were pretty much as they came off the shelves.
And no, I don�t think Danny Gokey could make an album of those songs. Come on. Yes, everyone gets caught up in the contestants while they�re on the show, but think about past seasons. When the season is over, people vote with their wallets and they vote for good pop songs, not for the cutest guy on stage.
Adam gave �Feeling Good� a rocker spin. God knows why he did it in a Saturday Night Fever suit, but so be it.
Jamie Foxx, the night�s mentor, said �The way he sung that song right now, he�s going to knock everybody�s head off.�
�Absolutely incredible, man,� he said to Adam, during the rehearsal time. �You don�t care who I am at all.�
But Adam said he was closing his eyes while he sang because he couldn�t forget that it was Jamie Foxx right there. (At least he didn�t get up in Adam�s �grill� the way he did for Danny Gokey and his fresh breath.)
Jamie said Adam took him up and took him down.
Jamie: �I�m crying. He can sing with the best of them. And he�s going to be great.�
And he was.
Randy Jackson: It was a little theatrical and a little too Broadway for me, but you are in the zone consistently dude.
Kara: My mouth drops open every time you perform. � Is he really doing that? Shocking. You�re shocking in a good way. Confusing and shocking and sleazy and superb and way over the top but I don�t know, I like you.
Paula: I get it. Words cannot describe. You make me feel better than good. With every performance I see it�s like watching the Olympics and you�re our Michael Phelps.
Simon: I love Randy saying that you�re too theatrical. It�s like complaining that a cow moos too much. � What I get from you is you want to win.
Which is a good thing since it�s certainly looking that way.
Jamie, describing Kris as a singer: �I�m not trying to sing the throat Olympics, I�m right here. I�m performing the song.�
Jamie to Kris: �You�re my No. 1. This is a dude I�d do a record with.�
Was that a subtle dig at Adam? Was he saying Kris was the first contestant he was mentoring, or that Kris was his favorite contestant? Since he wants to make an album with Kris right now, I'm guessing this is his No. 1 guy, period.
Does he need to be taking the stand with him as he sings?
Nice song, but unless someone is making another Meg Ryan/Sandra Bullock comedy and they need a song in the background, I don�t know that this is contemporary.
Randy: What all of us do at this time � is see who�s in it to win it. � I personally think this is your best performance to date � You took your time, you told a story. You had some R&B stylings.
Kara: Songs from this era give you a unique opportunity to show your technical abilities � you have set the technical standard so incredibly high this evening. Your impeccable phrasing, your diction, your timing. � You are truly a dark horse in this competition.
Paula: You�ve made this amazing transition from being the adorable boy next door to handsome sophisticated gentleman.
Simon: I�m not quite as enthusiastic as these three, only because I thought it was a little bit wet. You�re like taking a very well trained spaniel for a walk. It�s all going to be safe, it�s going to be quite nice. I didn�t thin it was incredible. I didn�t get the feeling from you tonight that you fan win this competition.
Ryan: What�s it like being the only girl left?
Allison: It�s scary being around those for guys?
Ryan: Really?
Allison: I�m kidding.
Yesterday she celebrated her 17th birthday.
Jamie: �Sixteen, she is leaps and bound ahead of her time.�
She�s too young to have a boyfriend, she tells the camera, then seems to get embarrassed and says she shouldn�t say that.
Jamie says to think about how much love flows from her family.
Her raspy voice does wonders for this, updating it all on its own. That was great.
Randy: You come out looking like Brittany Murphy � You sing like Pink but with like 9,000 more octaves. � That was the bomb and you did it in your own kinda rough kinda gruff style and I loved it.
Kara: I was starting to think you did need someone to watch over you. � But I ain�t nervous for you any more. You converted some new fans tonight. You are not just a rock chick. � That was a deep, motional way-beyond-your-years rendition and if that doesn�t land you in the finals I don�t know what would.
Paula: I�ve been waiting so long for you to perform a ballad. � It had an innocent sensitivity that was both alluring and tender. I�m really proud of you.
Simon: Do you think you can win this competition at this stage?
Allison: I think I can, I think all of us have that chance right now.
Simon: I ask the question because I don�t feel that belief in you still. � Maybe you�ve just been overshadowed by some of the personalities at the moment. I have a horrible feeling you could be in trouble tonight.
What? Why does he bring such gloom!
Ryan asks Simon if he was basing that on her performance or lack of confidence �?
Simon: I didn�t feel that in terms of commitment or belief that was a 10. .. felt like a 7 out of 10.
Kara to Simon: I love you, but you are crazy.
Matt is �stoked� about this week. He studied jazz. He got a B. �It�s part of my life.�
Jamie: �It�s a big song, so within each part of the song that�s got to be some (hand motion).�
They were done filming and Jamie had no comments. But then he pulled Matt back in.
I say change the key to the song. He wants it in his �full voice.�
What I�m still waiting for is for someone to make this fresh and current and not just a cover.
It was all right. I still think he�s the one in trouble.
Randy: That was probably one of the hardest songs to sing ever � For me it was just a little bit pitchy. � It didn�t all quite come together for me. I�d give it like a 6 out of 10.
Kara: Competition is so stiff tonight, you really have to be the leader of the pack to establish yourself. � I didn�t feel you were emotionally connected to it and that�s what I was missing.
Paula: I love what you did with the song and I love what you did with the advice from Jamie in lowering the key. I felt the emotional connection.
Simon: I am going to have to disagree � with Randy. For me, it was the only believable, authentic song I�ve heard tonight. I can tell that you love the music and I heard some almost Nat King Cole kind of phrasing there. I thought you were absolutely brilliant.
I think he�s just being witchy about Kara.
Danny: �I�m not changing it up much� (what a shock) �I�m just giving it a bluesy feel.�
Jamie talks about how close director Michael Mann would get to him, in his personal space. He does it to Danny to get some kind of pure moment.
He gets �all up in your grill.� �Your breath is fresh!�
He looks good in that suit.
Decent song and he gets into it, but this isn�t the kind of song I would think he would have on his CD. This is the most disappointing night of music to me, originality-wise. Good songs, but not for "Idol." At least last week for disco some of the contestants mixed it up � Kris, for one. So it was less disco than a pop song you could hear on the radio.
Randy: Once again it all sounds like it�s ballad tonight. I�m worried about the tempo � You are the only one I�ve heard so far tonight who could actually have an album of songs like that and win. � Forget all this stuff about the connection, this is a singing competition and you can sing.
Kara: What I�ve been missing from you all season is that Rat Pack swagger and you had swag tonight. The end of that performance was the most creative you�ve ever been with a melody.
Paula: Stellar. Stellar, stellar performance. The best thing about you, Danny, is I can tell you can see the finish line right in front of you.
Simon: What Kara said is 100 percent right. What you had tonight was a swagger and confidence. � I felt tonight you came out to prove a point. Not only did you prove a point with your vocals which were the best I�ve heard in weeks. � Special thank you to Jamie Fox (for what he brought out in all the contestants, but especially Danny). It was incredible.
I think this Saturday Night Fever suit might�ve been better for last week.
He�s doing a rock edge.
Jamie: "The way he sung that song right now, he�s going to knock everybody�s head off."
Jamie to Adam: "Absolutely incredible, man. You don�t care who I am at all."
(But he does care!)
Jamie says Adam took him up, took him down.
Jamie: �I�m crying. He can sing with the best of them. And he�s going to be great.�
THIS is what I was waiting for � someone to take a standard I�ve heard covered 100 times (including by Michael Buble) and doing something different. I�m not saying it�s his arrangement, but it�s a good one to choose.
Wooo � long note on Feeliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin good.
Randy: I�ll say it again � it was a little theatrical and a little too Broadway for me, but you are in the zone consistently dude.
Kara: My mouth drops open every time you perform. � Is he really doing that? Shocking. You�re shocking in a good way. Confusing and shocking and sleazy and superb and way over the top but I don�t know, I like you.
Paula: I get it. Words cannot describe. You make me feel better than good. With every performance I see it�s like watching the Olympics and you�re our Michael Phelps.
Simon: I love Randy saying that you�re too theatrical. It�s like complaining that a cow moos too much. � What I get from you is you want to win.
(He even mistakenly calls someone else Adam � Danny?)
Simon: Best entrance we�ve had all year.
He said Ryan is no longer allowed to use the stairs.
American Idol �spy� posts vote numbers (12 million for Danny Gokey?) Do you believe it�s true?

(First posted at RealGM)
Of all the prospects expected to be drafted in the top 10, Jonathan Isaac was the one given the smallest chance to showcase his skill-set on offense. As part of a veteran Florida State team that had Xavier Rathan-Mayes and Dwayne Bacon ahead of him in the pecking order, he had no shot creation responsibility/opportunity and posted only a 20.3% usage rate last season.
Nonetheless, the six-foot-10 combo forward is ranked ninth in the Draft Express' top 100.
That's the case because Isaac was given the chance to showcase his versatility on defense due to Florida State employing multiple coverages against the pick-and-roll and did well enough for most to envision him as a very valuable chess piece in an era of basketball where flexibility is starting to become a priority.
Florida State allowed just 95.1 points per 100 possessions with him on the floor[1], as he led a team in defensive rating that ranked 31st in the country in adjusted defensive efficiency[2].
Isaac impressed the most as a defender close to the basket.
Playing pretty much the entire season as FSU's second biggest player on the floor, with the exception of the times he actually played center in instances where his team went five-out to try coming back from behind, he was often tasked with helping protect the rim and showed good awareness rotating off the weak-side to act as the last line of defense.
The owner of a nine-foot standing reach and able to leap off the ground easily off two feet, Isaac averaged 2.3 blocks per 40 minutes[3] last season and also put his seven-foot-one wingspan to use making plays in the passing lanes, as he averaged 1.8 steals per 40 minutes.
And despite a lean 205-pound frame that suggests he should be pushed around near the basket constantly, Isaac displayed encouraging toughness. No opponent took him to the post to truly test him but he held his own in the glass, proving himself attentive to his boxout responsibilities and not shying away from physicality – collecting 25.5% of opponents' misses in his 839 minutes.
Isaac is well coordinated and has good agility for someone his size, which makes him an appealing option to be employed on pick-and-roll coverages that extend beyond the foul line; hedge-and-recover, trapping – something very important these days, given point guards who can hit pull-up three-pointers are in vogue.
The most prominent of these strategies nowadays is switching, though, and Isaac shows a lot of promise in that department as well.
Exchanging assignments midway through the shot clock or even picking up perimeter players for almost entire possessions, he's proven himself able to bend his knees to get down in a stance, shuffle his feet out on an island and has the lateral quickness to keep pace with smaller players one-on-one.
Isaac lacks strength at this point of his development to contain dribble penetration when big wings drive right at him but with his massive standing reach, staying attached is all needs in order to be able to contest shots effectively. And he even flashed some ability to navigate over ball-screens at the point of attack.
Isaac also impressed with his ability to stunt inside in help defense, then sprint out to run a shooter off the three-point line, maintain his balance to prevent a free path to the goal and contest or intimidate a step-back pull-up.
Isaac's role at Florida State was as a weak-side shooter and he was a good enough open shot shooter that he spaced the floor adequately. His mechanics seem like a pretty great foundation to build upon.
But he needs immediate work on speeding up his release and becoming a more aggressive shot taker, less hesitant against closeouts that shouldn't be effective against someone with his high release.
After nailing 38.5% of his three-point shots through the first 20 games of the season, Isaac regressed some towards the end of the year. He ended up hitting 34.8% of his 89 three-point shots, at a pace of 4.2 attempts per 40 minutes, for his 32 appearances in college.
Aside from the slightly below average shooting percentage, Isaac also can't be considered a particularly impressive shooter due to the lack of versatility in the shots he took. He wasn't given any opportunities to come off screens, sprint to the ball on dribble hand-offs or take long bombs out of the pick-and-pop but his release doesn't appear to be dynamic enough for him to be featured in such plays.
But as he did just about well enough on spot-ups, Isaac demanded closeouts and excelled at attacking them, driving smoothly on a straight line out of triple threat position and looking very fluid on one-dribble or two-dribble uncontested stop-and-pop pull-ups – 38 of his 74 makes at the basket were unassisted and he nailed 41% of his 61 two-point jumpers[4].
He flashed some ability to play above the rim as a target for lobs sneaking behind the defense on cuts but was not put in the pick-and-roll as a screener, so it's tough to say how much of a threat he is diving to basket, though in the instances where he crashed the offensive glass, Isaac often showed he is not yet strong enough to go up explosively off two feet in a crowd.
But it's even tougher to assess how much star potential he truly has, given he didn't get the chance to create against a set defense in college.
Isaac ran some pick-and-roll and isolation on broken plays and when he managed to bring the ball up the court after grabbing a defensive rebound. He can make uncontested pull-ups if the defense simply gives him that shot but didn't have many plays where he showed particularly impressive slashing ability; lacking an explosive first step, an advanced handle to get to good spots in the mid-range or snake his way to the basket through traffic and strength to maintain his balance through contact – averaging just 0.708 point per possession off the ball-screen[5].
Isaac also didn't exhibit particularly impressive instincts passing on the move and wasn't used as an asset to help facilitate offense from the elbow or the high post – assisting on just 7.7% of Florida State's scores when he was on the floor and posting a head-scratching 0.77 assist-to-turnover ratio.
Isaac also hasn't yet shown anything close to a robust enough post game to prevent the opponent from switching smaller players onto him comfortably, more often than not relying on fade-away face-up jumpers.

A Brief Rundown of Services
Tips On How To Make Money As A Web Host Reseller.
As a hosting reseller keep in mind that the amounts of profits you make are based on the kind of marketing strategy that you use. You will find that it will be necessary for you to know the tactics which you can be able to use in this case which will be able to market you in the right way here. Consider a case where you will find that some people will tend to use the pay per click as a merans in which they are able to market themselves while others will use the other means. The margin you decide to work on as well as the marketing strategy must be sure to give you the right ways to stand out in this case. Here are some of the tips which will help anyone who is looking for ways in which they will be able to stand out when they are looking for way in which they will be able to make money.
It will be important to work by setting a target in the much that you will be able to earn each month as your starting point. You will find that it will be important to consider a case where you will know the much that you will be able to get as your target in that the sales will determine. The margin that you will be working on will also determine the kind of profits that you will be able to set in this case.
Avoid very high margins since they will make your hosting packages too expensive which will push customers away. You will also need to avoid working on low margins since they will mean that in order to make any significant profits then you will have to sell so many in this case.
It will be necessary to consider a case where as a reseller the money that you will be able to make will tend to be considerably low in this case. The business gets better and better after sometime and you will find that people will start seeing significant profits along the way. You will find that within the first six months the business will have caught up and even if you will not be getting any new orders you would easily be making a lot of money already from the ones you have.
The thing is to ensure that you are able to sustain the existing customers by gaining them the best you can. This will not be a hard task since once they have subscribed to the monthly packages then there is little that can be done for them in such a case. It will be necessary to resell the hosting packages from the reputable dealers only which will give quality work.
