Among all the myriad ways of making money online, filling out online surveys is one of the easiest. Businesses need feedback from customers to tweak their products and get them ready for the market. Hence, there's a significant demand for valuable input from these surveys, which companies and businesses are willing to pay for.
Taking surveys online is an excellent way to earn some money in your spare time if you have an internet connection. However, the internet is filled with adverts from thousands of survey sites, all claiming to pay you good money for clicking around their website. However, many of them simply waste your time or just want to collect your information. We want you to be informed so we decided to write this survey junkie review. Let's get on it!
What is Survey Junkie
Survey junkie is as legit as it gets. It's a reputable survey platform that rewards members with cash or e-gift cards for taking part in online surveys. Survey Junkie is one of the oldest and most popular online survey sites with over 3 million users.
Established in 2010 in Glendale, California, by Blue Media Ventures, Survey Junkie started out as a resource site for people who needed information on how to complete surveys for other more established survey sites. Since then, Survey Junkie has grown to an independent online survey and research company.
Survey Junkie is a confirmed source of quick, extra, online income. You'll get paid for your opinions on a wide range of products and services. Survey junkie connects users and businesses in a mutually beneficial relationship. As an end-user, you complete online surveys and get paid for your labor with cash and gift cards. The company, in turn, uses your responses to redesign its products or services.
How Survey Junkie Works
To get started with Survey Junkie, you first create a profile. This will only take a few minutes. You'll then complete a questionnaire on your personal details and that of your household. Survey Junkie will use this information to know the types of surveys to send your way.
After completing this step, you start getting emails with links to surveys you qualify for. Or you can simply log in straight to your account and access the surveys there. You'll earn points after completing each survey.
How Much Can You Make on Survey Junkie?
The short answer to this? Not enough to quit your day job and go hiking in the Appalachian mountains.
As they stated truthfully on the website, "You Will Not Get Rich," which is what most survey sites will never tell you. Each survey has a different payout. The longer and more detailed surveys you complete, the more you'll get paid for them. On average, you'll earn $1 to $3 for each survey. This is about the same as other survey sites.
The money you can make with Survey Junkie depends on some different factors. Top of which is how many surveys you get invited to. And that is a complaint common with most survey sites, Survey Junkie inclusive – not getting enough surveys. That said, each user is different and will get invited to varying surveys with varying degrees of frequency.
Users may get invited to 2 or 3 surveys in a week. However, this is at the high end. Most will likely have to contend with only one invite a week. So assuming you get an invite per week, and the survey pays you $3, it then means you are getting a big fat $12 at the end of the month. While this amount may not impress your mother and her friends, you only spent probably 20 minutes cumulatively to earn that amount.
How Survey Junkie Pays Their Members
Rather than give out cash after a completed survey like most other online survey sites, Survey Junkie gives out points.
Whenever you complete a survey, you earn a certain number of points ranging from 20 to 200. There's no waiting period to get paid: you'll see your points in your account the instant you complete the survey. If you want to see the fruits of your labor quickly, then Survey Junkie is the right survey platform for you. Other survey sites could keep you waiting for up to 24 hours after completing your survey to pay you.
You have the option of converting your hard-earned points to gift cards or cash, which can be transferred to your PayPal account. You can also initiate a direct bank payment through Dwolla. This option is only available to US members. You supply your US bank account number and routing number, and the money will be transferred to you. It takes about 3-4 business days to conclude the funds' transfer. The minimum number of points you must have to get a payout is 1,000 points, which convert to $10.
Your points remain active so long as you use your account. Let's say you take a survey after every 12 months, the points will continue to accrue till they reach the minimum balance required to cash out. That is not the case with some other sites. Their points typically expire after some time.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Survey Junkie:
- Free membership: Survey Junkie is totally free to join, unlike other survey sites.
- Easy to Use: Survey Junkie is easy to use with a clean and straightforward interface. You don't need any experience or be particularly tech-savvy to create a profile and get started.
- Transparency: there are no processing fees whatsoever. Also, you don't pay any hidden charges to maintain the account or get your payout.
- PayPal payouts: Survey Junkie allows you to collect your payouts in the form of points through PayPal. This is easily the quickest and most straightforward way to convert your points to cash. Other survey sites will pay for your surveys with gift cards or a physical check.
- Honesty: with Survey Junkie, you'll know what to expect moneywise. It's clearly stated on their home page," you will not get rich by taking surveys." So you won't be frustrated by unrealized expectations.
- Low Minimum payout: Survey Junkie has a low minimum amount requirement relative to other survey sites. Here, once you get up to $10 worth of points, you can get paid. Users on some other platform will have to gather up to $20 worth of points before they can cash out.
- Multiple redemption options: to redeem your rewards, you can choose to get it to cash through Paypal, in the form of e-gifts, or by direct transfer (US members only) to your bank account with Dwolla.
- Instant payouts: Survey Junkie will credit your account as soon as you complete a survey. And once you get up to 1,000 points, your rewards are instantly transferred to you. Whether you chose PayPal, or e-gifts, or bank transfer, you won't have to wait for your rewards.
- Random account closure: There have been complaints of arbitrary closure of users' accounts. The worst part was that they never received any warning nor reason for the closure. They just tried to log in at some point and couldn't. While it's not common, it's something you should bear in mind before signing up with Survey Junkie.
- Uncredited payouts: user's also complained of not getting the payouts they requested for in their PayPal or gift cards. Some of these issues were resolved and the users got their money. In some other cases, they never received their due rewards.
- Wrong surveys: Survey Junkie sometimes sends the wrong invites to users that are not qualified for the surveys. When such a mismatch happens, and you proceed with the survey, you will be disqualified along the way since you may not be able to answer the basic questions correctly. You won't get paid for such incidences after wasting your time.
- Limited availability: Survey Junkie is only available for people living in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, or New Zealand. You won't be accepted as a member of Survey Junkie if you don't live in any of those countries.
In Closing
Is it really worth your time and energy to join Survey Junkie? Survey sites are an excellent way to make some extra cash in your spare time without having to put in long hours of work. If you can spare a few minutes to give your honest opinions on Survey Junkie and get paid for it, then why not?
Businesses rely heavily on feedback from their customers to find out their preferences and other detailed information. They will apply this data to designing products and services optimized to solve problems prevalent with their target audience. It saves them time, effort, and resources since it prevents them from investing in a product that won't sell.
Paid online surveys are used by these companies through sites like survey Junkie to provide invaluable data for them. These companies value consumers' opinions and are willing to pay top dollar for it.
If you love to air your opinions on things and want to have some input in making progressive changes, then why not get paid for it? Survey Junkie is an excellent choice to get paid for voicing your opinions.
Survey Junkie is a reliable and trusted platform that connects you to brands and get your opinions across to them while rewarding you with cash and e-gifts. Although it will never make you rich, there's nothing wrong with making some legit and easy money by the side.
While you are at it, you can also sign up with other survey sites in addition to Survey Junkie. Being a member of several survey sites increases the number of surveys you'll take and therefore increases the potential income you can make from them.

Late last year I had the privilege, courtesy of Dr. Pat Allen and Women's Voices for Change, of attending an advance screening of Waris Dirie's autobiographical film Desert Flower. I've been thinking about the film ever since, especially around Valentine's Day. It was painful to contrast the increasingly absurd, American-style holiday ritual against a personal expose on the horrors of being a woman whose vagina was sewn shut with thorns, after having her labia and clitoris cut off with a dirty razor at the age of two, on a rock in the desert, her precious genitalia left for the buzzards—patiently circling overhead—to snack on.
What's it like to be sitting across a café table from a man your heart fancies, sensing his reciprocal delight, knowing that the war zone that is your vagina is sewn so tightly shut that a pencil barely fits into the opening—to the point that every trip to the toilet involves 20 minutes of waiting for the urine to slowly drip out. And you spend half of every month dealing with the equally sluggish efflux of your menstrual flow. What's it like knowing that, should you consummate this budding romance, you'll first have to find someone to "cut you open," then heal from that, then explain it to said lover, then suffer pain, bleeding, and (remember, clitoris shaved off to the bone) never experience an orgasm. Ever. Might just be easier to keep all romantic escapades within your tribe, where the men expect the women to show up in bed terrified, docile, and anorgasmic. To quote Desert Flower: "A good woman is a cut woman."
Shocked? It gets worse. This is not a new phenomenon. Female Genital Cutting (FGC) or Female Genital Mutilation (FGM)—take your pick—involves varying degrees of vulvar amputation, done to make the women marriageable, often but not always carried out within elaborate, weeks-long coming-of-age rituals (think Sweet 16, debutantes, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs) in the societies involved.
Fran Hosken, founder of Women's International Network, first outed this terrifying procedure Stateside back in the 1970s with The Hosken Report, 300+ pages on all the countries and all the techniques used—and all the blood, death and debility involving millions of women in Africa, Asia, and the Arab world, in cultures that can't seem to marry off their girls without whacking off their parts and sewing shut their vaginas.
This past December I met Molly Melching, founder of Tostan, at the third annual meeting of the International Society of Obstetric Fistula Surgeons in Dakar, Senegal. Tostan, the Wolof word for Sharing and Transformation, has been in action in Senegal and surrounding nations to improve the lives of the underserved in these areas. One large part of Tostan's mission is the reduction of FGM. Working with the villages and communities since the 1970s, Tostan's programs have allowed more than 5,000 villages in five countries to publicly extract FGM practices from their "rite of passage" and marriageability rituals.
Momentum continues to build with the globalization of women's rights, including the right to live a genitally intact life. What better time for Waris Dirie to bring her story to a worldwide audience with a full-length feature film?
Honor the feminine; honor the memory of Fran Hosken; honor the women who've suffered this loss world wide. Support Waris Dirie and Tostan with your hearts, minds and efforts. Show up—see Desert Flower.
The most interesting method I heard of for preventing genital mutilation was to start clubs of parents who are against it. One of the methods used to stop Chinese foot binding was forming clubs to give parents who were against the practice the social support to avoid it. Most parents who cut their daughters love them and want the best for them. Interfering by saying "we know better–stop this!" can be counterproductive. But starting a new community of clubs to support uncut girls and favoring female health and even good mothers might work.

Re: 'Syrian expatriates'
Estimated at 15 million strong and with assets of up 80 billion dollars, the Syrian expatriate community represents an enormous human and financial capital. However, attracting the expatriate financial resource requires a very different set of incentives than those required to attract the human capital. As someone interested in the comprehensive advancement of Syrian society, not only its economic prosperity, I place more value on the human capital that the expatriate community can offer. Real, sustainable improvements in Syria as a nation will come from maximizing the potential of its people rather than from sporadic infusions of cash by fickle investors looking for quick returns. Expatriate human capital can be tapped for knowledge and experience in a wide range of disciplines ranging from science to engineering to corporate governance to law and information technology.
Syrian expatriates are a diverse group who emigrated at different times and for different reasons. In the context of harnessing this human capital, I see the Syrian expatriate community roughly divided into three groups. The first are the long-standing expatriates, like me, who are settled and have likely become citizens of other countries. These expatriates, often well established in their host countries, are unlikely to move back to Syria, except perhaps in retirement. Some among this group will make periodic trips to Syria for professional meetings. Such meetings make good copy for the local newspapers, make the expatriates feel good Ō??as well provide them with a tax write off- but rarely result in substantial and sustained transfer of new knowledge and ideas. More important would be the creation of ongoing relationships between expatriate professionals and their colleagues at institutions back home. For example ongoing visiting lectureships can be created at various universities in Syria for expatriates with unique experience and skills in different disciplines. A database of expatriates willing to contribute to such an enterprise can be created and used to invite lecturers.
The second group of expatriates is composed of those who have been away from Syria for five to ten years. They are typically younger and have left to pursue higher education and perhaps stayed on to work. They do not return because they are trying to delay a potentially career-breaking two-year stint of military service or because there are no job opportunities for their particular skills. These expatriates are much more likely to return with the proper incentives.
The third groups of expatriates are in fact not expatriates at all; they are expatriates to be. It is the group composed of ambitious young men and women seeking higher education and training outside of Syria. A high percentage of them will almost certainly become expatriates. They represent the open wound hemorrhaging human capital -the brain drain. This group should be even more of a concern for the Ministry of Expatriate affairs than the first two groups. The emphasis should not be on preventing them or discouraging them from leaving as the skills they will acquire are important, but on facilitating and encouraging their return.
The creation of a Ministry of Expatriate affairs is a good start although the governmentŌ??s commitment seems less than optimal. The ministry has a miniscule staff and their website has sparse and not very useful information and is out of date. Moreover, the emphasis with the first two expatriate conferences seems to be on attracting the expatriatesŌ?? money rather than the expatriates themselves or in harnessing their skills.
Expatriates uniformly retain a passionate and sentimental attachment to their homeland and are more than willing to help their homeland. Yet, how, why and when they left Syria clearly colors their attitudes towards the Syrian government and their willingness to work with it. It is therefore critical that the minister of Expatriate Affairs to rise above politics to become the minister for all expatriates regardless of their political persuasions.
But perhaps the single most important thing that the Ministry of Expatriate affairs can do for all expatriates is to facilitate their ability to visit or return to their homeland. It is preposterous that I can visit just about any country in the world with more ease than I can the country of my birth. The recent amendment of the military service law was not helpful and needs to be radically overhauled.

CBS, 29 Dec 2015Is 4C battery is removable or Non-removable non-removable
saimabutt, 30 Dec 2015i am going to purchase honor 4c but after going through all reviews about this ....i am little... morelol I posted a long opinion here a few minutes ago. I've listed everything that disappointed me. Check it out if you want.
Reve, 30 Dec 2015Should i updated it to lollipo or wait for marshmallow? Also my batt consumes more power reply asapWhen I updated the OS, some overheating problems were solved. So I would recommend you to update.
As for the battery life, make sure to close all the apps when you're done with them. Some of them will keep running even in the background. Hold the square/menu button and drag from the buttom of the screen. Manage your apps by going to Settings
Anonymous, 01 Jan 2016I have problem with that too 😭😭 i don't know how to fix itThat's called the Shifting Keyboard. It's a feature. Just turn it off in the settings
Settings>Smart Assistance>One hand UI>Shifting keyboard>OFF
Anonymous, 02 Jan 2016in spec . It say I has a 8gb internal storage but I found out in file manager of this phone. ... moreIn case you are not aware, the 8GB internal storage is still inclusive of space required for the system apps and the OS. That's not a scam.
I've been using this for about a month now. I've already updated it to Lollipop. Here's my experience.
What I liked about it(pros):
-The hardware specs. 2GB ram for such an affordable price? Camera isn't too shabby either.
-The price. Worth it. And it came with a free screen protector inside the box. Horaay!
-Gestures. You can double-tap to turn on the screen. While turned off, you can also draw letters to automatically open apps. But I don't like the latter because when using a screen lock, it still prompts you to enter your password. That defeats the purpose of a shortcut.
-Privacy Protection. You can set up a different PIN/Password for visitors. You can customize what they can see and they won't even notice.
-OTG cable support. Yay.
What I did not like about it (cons):
-The screen. It looks so cheap when it's turned on and there's a thick black space outlining the screen. Because the real screen doesn't reach the edges of the black rectangular space that is normally expected to be part of the screen. As such, the size of the phone is larger that it should be. I recommend you to buy the black version of this device so that this ugliness isn't noticeable.
-The overall design. It's obviously "inspired" by a certain phone brand. Plus, it would have been better if they put "Huawei" instead of "Honor" on the back. Nobody recognizes what brand Honor is.
-Battery life. Compared to the Samsung Tab that I've been using, the battery on this one drains a lot faster. At least it has an ultra-power saving mode. If battery drains too fast for you, be sure to close all the apps when you're not using them! Many of them still run on the background.
-Heating. I noticed that it heats up a lot faster.
-The automatic "Beauty" effect with the front camera. I don't like it and it's stupid. But there's no option in the settings to remove it. I don't want to replace the Camera app because this app has a shortcut on the lock screen (which is very convenient.)
-The launcher and its lack of an app drawer. This can be easily fixed by downloading a different launcher from Google Play. But that will defeat the purpose of many of this phone's features.
-Size of internal storare and inability to move apps. Only selected apps can be moved to the SD card. And even when they're moved, about half of the data is still left on the internal storage. You can't even move Facebook or Youtube, both of which are very big apps. This is a problem because only 3GB is left for the user after the space taken up by the OS and bloatware. In my tab, the OS and system apps still left me with free 5GB of space.
-Sim slots. It's very difficult to remove the sim cards. You would need very thin pins to push your sim card out. Most of the time when I attempt to remove a sim card, I'm scared of damaging the sim and the sim slots.
-Huawei Swype keyboard. For reasons unknown to me, even after turning off all prediction features in the settings, there's still this extra layer on the keyboard trying to predict words for you. I don't like this feature as it takes up unnecessary space and it's not very helpful because I am bilingual.
-Google keyboard on the messaging app. The "enter" button on the keyboard is replaced by a smiley button. It removes the ability to format your text messages. Consequently, I'm sometimes forced to switch between keyboards. *Sigh*
-The soft-key buttons. They're not lit. And for some reason, the manufacturer decided to confuse us by switching the back button with the menu button. There's a suspend button available to remedy this. But I don't like that either because you can't customize it.
-The lock screen. I just don't see the need to swipe the screen before showing us the password/pattern/PIN screen. It's just an unnecessary additonal step.
-Lack of online community. This is unavoidable as the phone is not very popular. When I had a question regarding my Samsung Tab, I could easily google it and find answers from other users. For this one, it's very difficult.
I give my hats off to the Huawei salesperson who sold me this device. I came to the shop looking for an Asus phone that I already researched on, but ended up going home with this phone I did not even hear about beforehand. I'm still bummed that he lied to me about being able to move 100% of my apps to the SD card. But for the price, I'd say this phone is worth it.
can we delete the update file in internal storage once i update it?
Minutes into playing Clash of Clans, I got a temperature reading of 42 degrees Celsius. On my previous device, COC did heat up my device after playing for a while but never to this extent and not this fast. If you plan to play COC, don't buy this device.
AnonD-483301, 02 Jan 2016Can i play the game if the game is saved in tthe sd card and not on internal storage? Because ... moreThere are some apps that experiences some problems when moved to the SD card. :) And even if you moved an app to the SD card, not 100% of the data is moved. Maybe only about half.

"TV Review: The Mandalorian" Remember when you first saw Star Wars, and the excitement you…
Waugh's Bag, Volume 8, Issue 20!
Waugh's Bag
Volume Eight, Issue Twenty
"Movie Review: John Wick: Chapter Three: Parabellum"
We've seen what John Wick, the man, the myth, the legend, the "Babayaga" can do in two movies already, so you'd be forgiven for thinking that there's little gas in the tank for a third go round. But if you think John Wick: Chapter Three: Parabellum would see Keanu Reeves and director Chad Stahelski limping over the finish line, you're dead wrong, cause Parabellum stands as easily the best action film of the year, and I have a very hard time believing that anything will top it.
Picking up immediately after the events of John Wick Chapter Two, the latest film finds Wick (and his trusty dog) on the run from, well, everybody. After murdering a high profile mob boss on the grounds of the Continental Hotel (the "sacred grounds" of the assassins), Wick is enemy number one, with a $14 million bounty on his head, limited allies, and no where to hide. His quest to undo his "ex-communicado" status takes him from New York City to Casablanca, where he meets up with Sophia (Halle Berry), who offers to help him, but at a cost. What follows is a hail of bullets, bodies, and even more weird John Wick lore than ever before.
It's really unfair to all other action movies that the John Wick movies exist. Everything about these films, from the way they're shot to the action choreography is on a whole other level, elevating the action movie genre to a status that it hasn't seen since Terminator 2 or The Matrix. Just like the other films in the series, Parabellum's gunfights, car chases, and sword fights are choreographed so well that you'll wonder why you even bother watching other action films (except The Raid, of course). While some of the plot of this installment may get a little too out there for some people, the action sequences are so well done that they're really just an excuse to get to the next one.
Of course, as great Parabellum is, it does drag a little bit in the middle of the film, and it starts off so strong that the action towards the end doesn't land quite as hard as the action from the beginning (though that may be just me being desensitized to all of the crazy action). Halle Berry's Sophia is also not in the film as much as you'd think from the trailers. There's not a lot of explanation for the rules of the assassins and the secret criminal underworld as there was in the first two films, but like I mentioned before, the action sequences are so good that you'll forgive the movie for any of it's faults.
John Wick: Chapter Three: Parabellum is easily the biggest movie in the franchise, and while it has a few growing pains with the larger story, it still remembers that the heart of this franchise was two things: insane, practical action sequences, and John Wick's love of his dearly departed wife. Keanu Reeves is really fantastic here, and that's largely due to his dedication to this movie series. Of course, the door is open at the end of this installment for another adventure with Wick, and I'll be there day one to see how Reeves and Stahelski top themselves.

While most social media has been overflowing with news about ISIS and Ebola lately, reactions to DJ Mag's Top 100 is what kept EDM fans feverishly refreshing their feeds. Producers, DJs, revelers, and agents alike agree the list has lost almost all authenticity and relevance, yet it's impossible not to talk about the remarkable ability for Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike to market themselves to the second position, the likes of up-and-comers Martin Garrix, DVBBS, and Blasterjaxx to claim top 20 positions over electronic ambassadors like Paul Van Dyk, Carl Cox, and Eric Prydz, or the notion that Boy George is somehow a better DJ than Richie Hawtin.
More than just a fan-voted status symbol that draws tons of traffic for DJ Mag and its brand sponsors, the list provides insight into the current mood of the amorphous EDM landscape. It's no surprise that the scene likes its beats big and its egos even bigger. But when you're done scratching your head over the rise of DJ Bl3ND and the trio-turned-duo Krewella, there are a few revealing takeaways to uncover. First, despite the resurgence of bass-line techno and deep house, each genre remains vastly underrepresented as they continue to be bested by club pseudo-celebrities. And despite efforts to bring more women into the profession, the Top 100 list is more of a boys club than the US Senate.
New entrant Oliver Heldens leads the charge in bringing dance back to EDM with his future house aesthetic, possibly nabbing some votes from former twentysomething standouts Arty, Porter Robinson, and Madeon. Their massive drops indicate that longevity for electro upstarts can be fleeting without regular international mainstage festivals appearances on their resume, so don't get too excited just yet for The Chainsmokers, Carnage, and VINAI.
As eclectic as their sounds may be, these 100 artists offer just a glimpse into the more popular tones of dance music. This month, The Drop explores some of the fringes: jumping on a Skype chat with London's Erol Alkan, cruising through Miami with Anoraak, partaking in the transformative bass of Phutureprimitive, and chatting with artist manager/talent buyer Will Runzel about the first steps in turning fresh faces into possible contenders.

A Conversation With Erol Alkan
By Derek Staples
Photo by Tom Hart
Over two decades ago, Erol Alkan accidentally stumbled into the world of club music. This fortunate encounter has guided the now 40-year-old every day since. Voted "Best Breakthrough DJ" by Muzik magazine in 2003, receiving Mixmag's "DJ of the Year" award three years later, and claiming the UK's Datatransmissions "DJ of the Year" in both 2008 and 2009, Alkan has been influential in techno and electro circles. He often brings that skillset into the world of indie rock, too. As the founder and talent buyer of London's legendary — and now closed — Trash nightclub, Alkan played a pivotal role in the success of Peaches, LCD Soundsystem, Klaxons, Bloc Party, and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. When not constructing his next genre-bending mix, he has produced official remixes for the likes of Death from Above 1979, Hot Chip, Chilly Gonzales, MGMT, and Tame Impala.
While so many of the club scene's biggest stars stay relevant through Twitter beefs and PR-driven collaborations, Alkan is too busy listening to new music, from Americana to hardstyle, to get caught up in all the digital drama. He has showcased his extensive knowledge of contemporary music with his Bugged Out/Bugged In mixes, organically bringing club culture into the living room, and his ear for psychedelia of all stripes has been the backbone for his Phantasy label.
I'm sitting here looking at the album art for your new FabricLive 77 mix. What's the story behind this mangled pomegranate?
I don't actually know who designed the artwork. Fabric usually sends a few designs to look at prior to packaging, and I really felt drawn to this image of the castrated pomegranate. It is not really the macabre; I am not drawn to that sort of aspect at all, but I just felt that it fit quite nicely. A lot of the tracks on that mix bleed a little bit, if that makes sense.
I am still delving into the new one, but I have always appreciated how your tracks and mixes have much more raw emotional sensibilities about them. To this day, your Bugged Out/Bugged In mixes remain high on my list of favorites.
Well, thanks. Yeah, Bugged Out was really instrumental in introducing me to the world as a producer.
To go back to those early days, I find one line quite interesting on your official online bio: "I made no bones about the fact that I fell into DJing electronic music by accident, via a lucky break, but it doesn't make me any less of a fan of the music." I was hoping you could clarify that statement for us and how that moment has shaped your career, now 20 years removed from those first weeklies.
When I started DJing, the role of the DJ wasn't something that was celebrated like it is now. My reasons for DJing were just that I wanted to play the music I loved to as many people as possible. I was always making tapes for people at school, so I thought, "If I can be in control of the sound system, I can play all this music to everyone in one go!" That was my real reason for wanting to play music to people. Also, I was just always fascinated by the culture that surrounded the music that I loved and why people were drawn to certain [styles of] music or how music worked and what it did.
Even now, I try not to think about it too much because I will spoil it for myself. I really cannot explain why, like why I have decided to do this and kept carrying on with digital music. It was just something that I enjoyed, and it just kept developing. I need to keep finding the enjoyment within it to keep doing it myself. You need to keep finding new music or finding new ways of doing what you do. You don't want to turn into a parody of what it is you do. It's strange, 20 years or so after playing records in nightclubs, when I was still at school as well, then to go through my 20s and still to be as excited as ever about this … if not more, even. I am more excited about DJing now, because the longer you do it the more you know your duty. People will really invest time in you when you realize that. It makes you feel as if you need to deliver.
Tommie Sunshine has shared similar stories recently about the evolution of the DJ. When the scene started, DJs spent all their time in the record shop: If you couldn't find the track, you couldn't buy the track, and thus couldn't spin the track. And after the hunt, you would just end up spinning in the shadows anyway. These days, DJs have truly taken on superstar personas. Do you feel there are different expectations now than when you started?
I think so, but fundamentally I just want to stick to the foundations as to why I do it. I feel I fall into this, I suppose, but DJs have actually become a brand. I don't have a huge problem with that, and I really don't think about it too much, but I certainly don't want to exploit that. I don't want my decisions to be guided by that.
It took you about 15 years to release your first original EP, but you have been prolific remixing artists across genre boundaries and curating mixes. Do you find more joy in working with other artists and sharing music as a DJ as opposed to sitting behind a production desk and working out original material?
I have made a lot of records, but with original material, I just didn't feel that I really had the right thing that I wanted to put out under my name, I suppose. I sometimes think what you don't say or don't do is as important as what you do [laughs]. Maybe not releasing original music for that long could have been one of the most important decisions I made.
When you go into a remix effort, how are those relationships normally established? Are these friends, is it music you like, or are they pitched from the artists?
When I first started remixing, it was only people that I knew because they would ask me personally, and I would usually say yes. There were a few offers to remix people that I didn't know, or would just have been due to a considerable monetary offer, and I didn't tend to do those. There just wasn't anything tangible to it; I didn't want to be someone you could just ring up and get a remix from. I just stuck to what I thought felt right, and it has been that way ever since.
The first time I ever saw you perform live was alongside Boys Noize during Ultra of 2010, and it was just a mess of arms and flying CDs. You each went off to work with several other artists, but do you still get to catch up from time to time?
Well, Alex [Boys Noize] spends a lot of time in the States now, so we don't see each other too often, unfortunately. Plus, I am quite terrible with staying in contact with people. I did see him recently, and it was a really good catch up. When I see people, it is always great to see them, but there is just too much going on that it is really tough to play catchup. It will often feel that I saw someone just yesterday, and they will remind me that it was a year ago.
Are there any new collaborations that you are working on?
Not at the moment. I did just co-produce the Ghost Culture album, which is coming out in January. There is the Beyond the Wizard Sleeve stuff that I also work on. And I just remixed/reanimated the entire [Sun Structures] album from Temples.
I am actually seeing Temples in just a few days.
They are great, and I really love what we have done. I don't usually say this, because you don't want to feel like there is ego involved, but I am really satisfied with what we have done with it. And that is a really good feeling: when you can present something back to an artist that you really love. I think it's good; I think that it is really good.
That is about it at the moment … we are about to remix an album from a band that I cannot actually reveal, but they are a band that I know you will really like. A lot of people are actually losing their minds about that album right now. There is a lot going on, really.
You mentioned earlier that you are spending most of today just listening to new music. Where do you prefer to scour for new music? Any advice for finding gems that aren't going to be on Top 40?
Record shops! I go to record shops every week.
I am fortunate that my office building actually incudes an independent record shop. It is nice to peruse weekly, chat with the clerks who are surrounded by music all day, and just thumb through the new collections.
Pressing a record is so different than just placing tracks online. In order to make a record, people have to invest not just time and money but a lot of other assets to make it happen. And that is the benchmark of great music.
Obviously, we can hear a lot of great music on SoundCloud, demos and stuff, but there is nothing like going to a record shop and seeing people who know you and know what you are about. They know the music that you like, and they will hand you a load of stuff, feed you, you know? I love it. I do it every week, and it is probably the most important thing that I do to find new music.
You were really quite seminal in bridging the indie/alt rock worlds and dance music during your time at Trash, helping break bands like LCD Soundsystem, Bloc Party, and Peaches. Do you feel when you go out and play a festival that a lot of other electronic artists have become too engrained in a certain niche or sound?
I don't really take too much notice of those things, to be honest with you. But that might be one way of putting it. I am just so involved with the music that I am working on, the artists involved, and what is close to me that noticing where other people are going wrong is just not something that I concentrate on. That would make me feel like I am wasting my time, just telling people where they go wrong or being negative about things when there is so much positivity close by.
You would rather put all that positive energy into Phantasy, I'm sure.
Yeah, rather than telling people where they are going wrong, I would just rather stay focused on what I am doing and keep that right.
What is the driving philosophy with Phantasy? It's quite eclectic. I think you have stated that 50 percent of the releases really aren't meant for DJs.
There is no real kind of philosophy behind it as such. I think it is completely an extension of the music that I love. For me, it has to feel real. I have to believe it. There is usually some kind of psychedelic element to it. It is certainly not straight down the line or music made to be liked by as many people as possible.
I have never told anybody to make music that is going to be liked by more people. If anything, I am more interested in pushing people deeper into their own sound, their own musical philosophy, or their own musical language to see what happens then.
In my opinion, one of the more interesting things currently happening in dance music is the evolution of former vibes, be that Disclosure's take on garage or current trends in tech and minimal house. So often we hear a genre is "dead" … ska is dead, dubstep is dead, hip-hop is dead … only for a new generation to find a sense of nostalgia in it and bring it to a new forefront.
I never take notice of that, when people say a certain genre is dead. I remember when people were telling us guitar music was dead in 2000, and then The Strokes released their first album. Then dance music was dead at a certain point. You never really hear that from music fans.
No, just from people like me, journalists who want to have good headlines. [shared laugh]
No, I wouldn't say journalists or fans by any stretch. Sometimes people just want to shift the spotlight from one thing to another in order to keep things exciting and indexed clearly. That is fine. I don't have a problem with it at all. I don't take much notice of it, but I am sure that some people have to. It just doesn't mean anything to me, because nothing really dies, does it?
You are right. There is always a continuance of the energy. Since you de-emphasize creating music for the masses, how do you define success for yourself and the label? Is it just all about delving deeper into your own artistic well?
I just think that it is encouraging for people to find their own unique musical language. I am a great believer that good music will live on. Good music always does live on! We are just encouraging people to make the best record that they can. That is what I always try to do.
I have been around so many situations where someone goes off to make the next big record or to make the big American record, and it perplexes me a little bit. I think that so many people have made amazing records, records that have defined eras, in their bedroom without even knowing what they were doing. They were just focused on what they were doing. It doesn't work when you sit down and try to be an architect for success.
So many friends of mine have recorded albums in low-rent, really basic studios, producing it all themselves, and they have just been incredible and turned so many heads. And then they go into a big studio with a big-budget producer and then what everyone liked disappears. When I say real and believable, I mean the ingredient that connects with people.
I feel that visceral connection is what enhances a record's longevity. Even after years of not listening to an album, you will pop it in just to go back to those moments and feelings.
I am a big believer in the element of performance over over-production — the whole experience just connects with people. You must be the ingredient that keeps people coming back to something.
To hop from that performance element, if Erol Alkan/Phantasy were to curate a festival stage, who are the artists you would want revelers to experience?
These artists can be active or inactive? Contemporary?
Yep, just have fun with it!
Well, if that is the case, I would like [1960s American baroque pop band] The Left Banke to play. I'd invite [Detroit soul singer] Little Anne … Man, that is a good question.
I imagine with as much music as you listen to in a year, it is difficult to narrow it down.
Let's add Wimple Winch. I'll have to keep thinking about others.
Well, you definitely gave me plenty of music to check out this week. Do you have any plans to hit the States soon?
Yeah, I might be coming over early next year, I think.
As long as you hit somewhere near the Midwest, I will be sure to make the trek!
Great, yeah! It would be good to meet you, man.
Thanks for the chat, and I will be sure to check out these artists as well as the new Fabric mix.
Read ahead for live reviews of up-and-coming Frenchman Anoraak and desert bass specialist Phutureprimitive.
My Evening with Anoraak
By Steve Vaynshtok
Upon arriving at the Hotel Urbano in Brickell to pick up Anoraak, I encountered exactly what you might imagine. Admittedly, I hadn't the slightest clue what Frédéric Rivière would look like in the flesh, but I was met with a stylish young Frenchman whose outward appearance reflected the upbeat, dance-inspiring tunes he specializes in, holding in hand his gear for the night's performance.
Rivière immediately comes off as a gentleman, very polite and with a charming French accent. We spoke about his fondness for playing in Miami and at Bardot specifically. He told me about how his tour had kicked off and a specific show in Kansas City, as well as how he enjoys playing for smaller, more intimate crowds as opposed to the bustling cacophony of a large crowd too hip to dance, with drinks in hand and too much to say. We talked about his show at Grand Central on the Drive tour as well. He mentioned he felt it had a really good vibe to it because everyone was clearly there for the music, not because it was trendy. As an attendee of said show, I can confirm that I saw the brilliance of that night in full effect.
Rivière started the Anoraak project in 2006, and has since released three albums via Grand Blanc, with one joint releasing with Naïve Records. His albums Nightdrive with You, Wherever the Sun Sets, and Chronotropic are all bubbly synthpop records bordering on the outskirts of dreamwave, outrun, and electro-pop, with a strong focus in disco/house-infused jams. He has an affinity for playing in America because that's where most of his streams come from and where he tours the most. With the consistent quality of his music, it's easy to see why he's in such demand.
As we arrived at our destination, the Jolt Radio HQ in Wynwood, we discussed how endearing it is to have so much art and music-centric business on a single strip of what was previously just empty lots and warehouses. The attractiveness of Wynwood stood out as we reached the gallery that Jolt Radio calls home. It was plain to see at this point that this would be an entertaining and enlightening interview with an air of catching up with old friends, despite everyone just meeting.
Jolt Radio's Mr. Jolt (aka John Caignet) greeted us warmly and set up a table and DJM for what would be the most spectacular in-studio I've seen at Jolt yet. As we watched Rivière set up his Dave Smith Instruments Mopho x4, MPC1000, and Arturia MicroBrute along with his choice of pedals, a few more members of the Jolt Radio family, Bourgeoisie, Shalenberg, and The Mice Lady, joined us in studio. Within moments, everyone was getting on like friends, cracking jokes and discussing the origins of the Anoraak name as well as how he got into the electronic music scene.
Rivière told us about Nightdrive with You being featured on Myspace Music US's page and how his play count shot up, setting up the snowball effect of his music career from there. He mentioned being in a grunge band in the '90s, having long hair and admiring the Seattle grunge scene. Relocating to a smaller Nantes flat forced him to acclimate to prissy neighbors, so he began using his laptop and headphones to make electronic music. Logic is his preferred program, and he refuses to use a laptop live because it simply slows down the flow of a live set.
We also discussed the endearing quality of an American burger and how some of the bigger cities here have some of the better dining fare. By the end of the interview, the room had warmed up in the sense that you really felt like everyone was comfortable and happy to be there. There was no air of a musician whose publicist had scheduled him for an interview with an impartial journalist who had Googled his greatest hits in preparation. You could clearly see that everyone there was familiar with Anoraak's work and anxious to experience the music being performed live by the man who composed it.
When he stepped up to his setup at the end of the interview, Rivière launched seamlessly into the track that would end up being my favorite of the night for his Bardot performance. It was a real treat to see an electronic producer playing chords on a keyboard while tweaking the bass synth that had an MPC running sequences into it and changing the sequences for the drums and bass on the fly. From a musical standpoint, it was truly a sight in an age of "press play" performances. It was clear to see why Anoraak is so highly acclaimed and why his music and performances stand out from the fist-pumping DJs we've all grown so accustomed to here in Miami. I knew without a doubt that the show was going to be special, and with two flawless tracks out of the way and a few British cigarettes shared downstairs, I took Rivière to Bardot for his sound check, ready to catch up with him before his set.
I will admit, Bardot typically is the sort of place you'd find a bunch of trendy, stuck-up bros who grab women to try and whisper some poorly mediated piece of "game" into their ears. But the crowd at Bardot that night was full of lovely young ladies whispering about Foster the People's DJ set and how excited they were to see Anoraak play before them.
I had missed Laura of Miami's set and walked into Artime playing some jams. I bought a 1664 (in an effort to make the ambience of the night as French as possible) and headed over to the DJ booth to meet up with Anoraak, while letting Artime know he was killing it. Rivière and I had another conversation about why he specifically loves Bardot, mentioning how it's a treat to see the pretty girls his shows attract, although he isn't as big on groupies as he is in a longstanding relationship with his current girlfriend. During our discussion, he said something that really resonated with me, but I must omit it from my commentary because it was a private tidbit disclosed to me in confidence. I will say this: At that moment, I knew that the respect that had built up over the past few hours for the man behind the music was genuine admiration. With that thought he had shared, my opinion solidified that this was a truly fantastic individual, not just in his musical abilities but in his character as well.
It was 12:15 when he took the stage, and the room was nearly packed to the brim. Along the front of the carpet was a group of some of the prettiest girls I've ever seen, my friends from Jolt who Rivière graciously added to the list, and the pals I had brought along for the show. From the moment the music began, the entire room clustered around the eclectic sounds of the young French phenom. His level of focus was a sight to behold. When he launched into "Behind Your Shades", I felt the energy in the room pooling around him. Each song blended seamlessly with the last, and he looked to be having a fantastic time, dancing along as he triggered loops and sequences, tweaked synth lines, and played riffs out on the keys. The sound was immaculate, and his control over the music was so precise you could compare it to alchemy.

I remember specifically turning back to Mr. Jolt and exclaiming, "He really is Gandalf. He's a wizard!" The crowd was packing in more and more as the set progressed, with smiles and drinks all around, everyone whispering small mentions of how great the music was and how well the show was going. At one point, Mr. Jolt and I agreed this may very well have been the best show either of us had seen at Bardot.
Bardot is one of those venues where there is no stage, no space, and no really intricate light show, so the quality of the experience always depends on the artist and the crowd and how the two interact. There was no shortage of energy and poise from Anoraak as he filled the room with textures and vibes that you don't see at most shows. Even the interactions between the crowd and the music were obvious to anyone paying attention. This was what a good show was supposed to look and feel like.
Anoraak continued his set, looking up only every once in a while and confirming the pleasant atmosphere with a happy smile at the crowd. When he played "Nightdrive with You", the excitement was palpable; there wasn't a still body on the carpet, with everyone dancing both upfront and next to the bar. His set continued for a solid hour of disco-infused electro-pop/house music. When he finally stopped, everyone seemed dissatisfied with the silence. I shook Rivière's hand and let him know what shining praise I had in store for him, having had the privilege to witness a set like that.

Phutureprimitive Brings the Dusty Festival Vibes to Clubland
By Derek Staples
Although he plays dozens of music festivals per year, don't expect to see Phutureprimitive on the bill of any of the Big Four anytime soon. The Bay Area glitch-hop/IDM producer has been releasing steadily for a decade, establishing himself as the premier DJ for sunrise sets during transformational festivals. For the uninitiated, Transformational festivals are those that promote wellness workshops, leave-no-trace policies, and permaculture seminars as heavily as they do their music talent — think Burning Man and regional, underground equivalents. Due to the very nature of these festivals, documentation is rare; it's all about living in the now, which is hard to do while peering through a camera.
To bring this inspiring presence to a club setting during the latter half of 2014, Phutureprimitive enlisted the talents of ritual dancer Caeli La, visual animator Thomas Williams, and, most importantly, his passionate fan base. Using a Kickstarter campaign, Phutureprimitive raised more than $12,000 to design and build a custom, video-mapped, three-dimensional stage production — definitely not an easy task for an independent artist. The projection rig is just one element that differentiates Phutureprimitive from his heady bass music contemporaries. While acts like The Polish Ambassador, Ott, and Shpongle also put considerable effort into their visual productions, Phutureprimitive has created an open-hearted culture around his "Dance Out Your Demons" philosophy. In a sort of self-help exercise, Phutureprimitive distributes paper, tape, and markers before each show for revelers to scribble down their fears, insecurities, and doubts, attach them to the bottom of their shoes, and then work out those ills through the course of the night.
I made my way to Cleveland's Beachland Ballroom and Tavern to check out the result of the crowd-funding campaign. As the venue is mid-market at best for electronic music, I was shocked to see a few dozen dancers already soaking in the beats of the house PA system when making my way inside. There was little the venue could do to hide the newly completed physical setup; the object's pristine whiteness hinted at the sensory overload to follow. While the term EDM is being used more and more to describe bottle-service vibes, the evening was anything but. Opener Kaminanda seemed to arrive fresh from the playa, dust on his baggy joggers and all. His plodding glitch arrived from those same psychedelic lands. When not staring into the glow of his sticker-coated laptop, he was getting lost in his Goa enchantment, a row of troll-like figurines keeping guard on his controller as he grooved away from the DJ table.
These moves transitioned nicely when he came down into the audience in anticipation of Phutureprimitive. Kaminanda never retreated back into the hollows of the venue, sharing laughs with the audience before the headlining set, and then eagerly swaying with the dozens of bodies that coalesced into a glowing ball of contentment mid-floor. The energy for Phutureprimitive was unlike anything I had encountered. To be transparent, his music isn't as unique as someone like Welder or Tipper; it's his ability to infuse the serenity of distant female echoes and a shimmery melody with a beatifically chaotic bass line and to sustain this presence over four hours that pulls such a composed group of ravers. If one could combine the excessive joy of The Polyphonic Spree, camaraderie of The Grateful Dead, and pure bass bliss of Bassnectar, that would approach the ambiance of a Phutureprimitive evening.
This sense of spiritual well-being is far from the molly-fueled stereotype of the 2014 bass-music culture, a caricature that would still be welcomed, and eventually tamed, by this transformational experience. Phutureprimitive might have been at the front of the room, but the event was for the audience: the live artists throwing paint to canvas, the hoopers losing themselves in a whirlwind of colors, and even the introverts who felt comfortable enough to escape from their bedroom for just a few hours. That sense of "welcome" isn't always so easy to obtain.

To solve a 100-year puzzle in metallurgy about why single crystals show staged hardening while others don't, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) scientists took it down to the atomistic level.
The research appears in the Oct. 5 edition of Nature Materials.
For millennia, humans have exploited the natural property of metals to become stronger or harden when mechanically deformed. Ultimately rooted in the motion of dislocations, mechanisms of metal hardening have remained in the crosshairs of physical metallurgists for more than a century.
The team headed by LLNL materials scientist Vasily Bulatov performed atomistic simulations at the limits of supercomputing that are sufficiently large to be statistically representative of macroscopic crystal plasticity yet fully resolved to examine the origins of metal hardening at its most fundamental level of atomic motion. The simulations were performed on the Vulcan and Lassen supercomputers at Livermore and Mira supercomputer at Argonne Laboratory Computational Facility.
The root causes of metal hardening remained unknown until 86 years ago, when dislocations — curvilinear crystal defects made by lattice disorder -- were proposed to be responsible for crystal plasticity. Despite direct causal connection between dislocations and crystal plasticity being firmly established, no team has observed what dislocations do in situ — during straining — in the bulk material.
See the simulation (YouTube video).
"We relied on a supercomputer to clarify what causes metal hardening, Bulatov said. "Instead of trying to derive hardening from the underlying mechanisms of dislocation behavior, which has been the aspiration of dislocation theory for decades, we performed ultra-large-scale computer simulations at a still more basic level — the motion of atoms that the crystal is made of."
The team demonstrated that the notorious staged (inflection) hardening of metals is a direct consequence of crystal rotation under uni-axial straining. At odds with widely divergent and contradictory views in the literature, researchers found that the basic mechanisms of dislocation behavior are the same across all stages of metal hardening.
"In our simulations we saw exactly how the motion of individual atoms translates into the motion of dislocations that combine to produce metal hardening," Bulatov said.
Other LLNL scientists include Luis Zepeda-Ruiz, Tomas Oppelstrup, Nicolas Bertin and Nathan Barton. Alexander Stukowski (a former LLNL postdoc) from Technische Universität Darmstadt Germany and Rodrigo Frieitas (a former LLNL graduate student) of the University of California, Berkeley and Stanford University also contributed to this work.
The research was funded by the National Nuclear Security Administration's ASC program and Technische Universität Darmstadt.

Farewell Google Reader
So, if you've been paying attention to any of the buzz on the net today, especially said buzz that deals with tech stuff, then by now you've likely heard that Google Reader, Google's RSS service, will be getting the ax in July. This has a lot of people up in arms, and while I am not personally readying my pitchfork and torch, I include myself among the disappointed.
I've been using Reader for about six or so years now. As a major consumer of media, especially news and web comics, Reader has simply provided a logical and easy to use means of directing all the web content I'm interested in to one central location for me to browse at my leisure. Certainly there are other tools available that can accomplish much the same end, but, having already been a Gmail user, as well as using Google Calendar and Docs, Reader was just a common sense tool to put to use.
Now I know that RSS has never enjoyed much love, even considering its relatively ubiquitous availability. Furthermore, as a free tool, Reader does not seem like it is likely pulling in a whole lot of revenue for its parent company, and so for them to keep at it, doesn't make much sense from a business perspective. Still, I, and others, will miss it when it is gone. It has become an intricate part of my media engage life-style.
Oh well, so goes it. Hopefully Gmail won't get nixed anytime too soon.


text: That\u2019s it? A third-round pick and two fill-ins for the No. 1 overall pick of the 2014 NFL draft? Good Texans fans will be asking themselves all season what the franchise could have gotten for Jadeveon Clowney if it traded him at the right time, before the 2019 draft. Smart Texans fans know that coach Bill O\u2019Brien never truly saw eye-to-eye with his first draft pick. Anyone who knows the NFL knows that the Texans\u2019 on-paper return for Clowney was incredibly disappointing. Or insulting, depending on your personal point of view. Barkevious Mingo is set to join his fifth team since 2013. Jacob Martin was a sixth-round pick out of Temple in 2018 and didn\u2019t start a game for Seattle last season. ON HOUSTONCHRONICLE.COM:\u00a0King Bill O'Brien shakes up Texans, NFL in one day Were the Seahawks going to cut Mingo? If so, this Saturday dump smells even worse than it first appeared. Defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel has long been one of the league\u2019s best at getting the best out of average talent. Maybe Mingo, the No. 6 overall pick in 2013, finally locks in with an NFL team. Maybe Martin has serious pro upside. Perhaps that 2020 third-rounder really turns into something. I will now remind you that the Texans gave up a potential third-round pick in the Duke Johnson trade, after cutting 2017 third-rounder D\u2019Onta Foreman. And that Seattle now has two of the best players that O\u2019Brien has coached since he took over the Texans in 2014. And that Deshaun Watson is still in serious need of a proven left tackle, and the Texans\u2019 return in the Clowney trade was two defensive players \u2013 not All-Pros, not Pro Bowlers, but players. If only the Texans had simply traded Clowney for Brown and cleaned up a 2017 mistake that still stings. Clowney is gone because he never was the player that O\u2019Brien wanted. But I said all along that if the Texans were going to ship away the former No. 1 pick, they had to get a team-changing return. Oakland did that when it traded Khalil Mack to Chicago last season. Multiple first-rounders in an early September blockbuster that immediately changed the Bears\u2019 season and set Jon Gruden\u2019s Raiders up for a massive rebuild (and Antonio Brown). On paper, the Texans dumped Clowney after publicly backing themselves into a corner. If this trade ends up as bad as it initially appears, they\u2019ll have no one to blame but themselves. Everyone in the NFL knew what King O\u2019Brien (coach\/de-facto GM\/playcaller) was trying to do. The serious trade window had passed. But the team without a GM felt like it had to get rid of one of pro football\u2019s most explosive defenders. Pete Carroll, Super Bowl winner and player-friendly leader, pounced after Clowney declined to join Miami\u2019s rebuild. The Texans will surely make more moves. The final 53 is never set and I have a sneaky feeling that Matt Kalil won\u2019t be protecting Watson\u2019s must vulnerable side in 2022. But Clowney was a highly valuable bargaining piece and the Texans ended up with \u2026 what? Again: I\u2019m not knocking Mingo, Martin or the future third-rounder still living his best life in college. But if everyone knows the Texans got fleeced (on paper), then how does the team\u2019s ownership not know it? And what does that say about the current status quo on Kirby Drive, which has been in flux ever since a summer power play ended up with a fired GM, tampering charges, then no GM? Clowney had issues. His dedication was questioned throughout the draft process, he regularly frustrated the Texans and he will have to prove himself again in Seattle. He also was the Texans\u2019 prized pick and now they again have little to show for a No. 1 overall selection. J.J. Watt and Clowney, wrecking opposing offenses, never worked out like it was supposed to. Saturday morning, Clowney to the Seahawks dominated the news, while Watt tweeted pictures of dogs, breakfast tacos and a soccer match. You\u2019re either in or out with O\u2019Brien\u2019s Texans, and Clowney had been out for months. No wonder players have been questioning the state of the team and the decisions being made. No wonder so many fans love to hate the Texans\u2019 coach, front office and ownership. In a normal world, a GM would stand in front of a podium \u2013 or at least speak into a phone on a conference call -- and explain the franchise-changing decision. The owner might answer a few questions, too. In the Texans\u2019 world, the head coach dumps Clowney in a weird Saturday morning trade.

Gorgeous!!! OMG!! I love your photography.
Jan 9, 2012 ~ 4:46pm
Carrie - If you're talking about the front side image of Saige, she was just sitting about 7 ft in front of the Christmas tree, and I took the image using my 85 f/1.4mm lens with an aperture of f2. I used Radio Poppers to trigger an off-camera Nikon SB 900 flash to Saige's right (camera left). The SB 900 was about 4 feet away from Saige and was shooting into a 40" silver umbrella with a soft-white diffusion sock on it to soften the light from the flash. Finally I put a 4'x6' standing Larson silver reflector panel to her left (camera right) about 2 ft away to bounce some soft fill light. If you're talking about the backside image of the 3 of us, another photographer (Lauren Reynolds) took that one of us at a recent family session. Hope that helps! Thanks for your comment/question.

1. By bowing to Shree, mind feels very content, chanting of Shree's name starts spontaneously from the mouth
2. Hail to the great teacher, Sadguru, Salute to you Oh the light of the Sun, before beginning any work you should be remembered
3. Without chanting your name, it is difficult for us to survive, we don't have any support without you
4. Where your name is chanted, all work is successful, mind becomes calm and selfless become all desires
5. To get the true good path and upliftment Paramsadguru should be remembered and his name should be chanted
6. In the temple of Gurumandir, Shree was doing worship, Shree could clearly hear the 32 worded mantra
7. Some holy noble soul came in invisible form and did the recital of the mantra, Shree accepted the mantra
8. Who were the noble soul, what was the 32 worded mantra, why the invisible form is a mysterious part
9. This mystery is going to revealed henceforth, it was the intention of giving sermon to Shree in invisible form
10. Shree accepted the mantra and started study of the mantra, Shree started a strict penance on a routine
11. The one who came in the invisible form and gave the mantra, Shree recognized him as his teacher and started his study and penance
12. Within one month, one event occurred, suddenly, nobody knew about it, not even Shree
13. The health of Gangadhar Maharaj was not well, his thoughts were organized and authoritative, he had the plan ready
14. Son of his brother's daughter, who was his grandson, who himself was an idol of authority, Gajanan was called
15. Maharaj said – This spiritual lineage of Samarth should be continued by you, this is our will
16. Shree listened to it and thought the person who gave him the sermon was his first teacher
17. Then how can this second sermon (Diksha) be accepted – Shree thought at that time
18. But the influence of inner thoughts and conscience was so great, that Shree decided to accept the things which were happening
19. Gangadhar Maharaj sensing his end, called Gajanan and gave all him all authority and rights
20. In 1938 – March 11 was the day, Falgun Shudh Dashmi – Shree got all the rights
21. Gangadhar Maharaj gave all his rights to Shree and made him the head of the religious school Gurumandir
22. As per the heritage, the Rudraskh necklace from his neck, he put around Shree's neck
23. Gave him the stick and necklace, put the shawl on his back around him ceremoniously
24. Shree was officially positioned as the head of the spiritual lineage, the beautiful religious ceremony was in progress
25. Gangadhar Maharaj put his hand on Shree's head and said – 'Sadguru Gajanan Maharaj'
26. My presence is forever here, he said, pointing his finger at Shree
27. Shree put his head on Matoshree Umabai's feet and bowed to her and saluted her
28. The eight senses awakened in Shree's divine presence and there was a unique glow on Shree's body
29. After the Mantra was given to Shree in invisible form, not even one month had occurred since then and this ceremony took place
30. Receiving the mantra, immediately becoming the head of Gurumandir, these events seem to be related, one begins to wonder
31. Shree's faith was on Sadguru and he was Shree's diety, like this was Shree's behavior and faith
32. From the beginning the diamond was real and then it was polished, then the sparkle was eye opening, the same situation here to
33. Shree's behavior was very holy and religious, he used to chant many mantras and in that he got the position of Sadguru, what to mention about the greatness
34. Gangadhar Maharaj decided to take Sanyas, Umabai worshipped him and did panch arti for him
35. Using the same panch arti, she worshipped Shree and Gangadhar Maharaj took the fourth phase of life
36. He took the name of Shrimat Dayanand Saraswati – he was a ocean of kindness
37. Eleven days after Shree being established on the new position, the day of Vadh Shasthi Falgun dawned
38. 1938 – March 22 – It was a Tuesday, the time was in the evening
39. Dayanand Saraswati went into the temple and sat in his usual spot for meditation
40. His composure was calm, he was engrossed in deep meditation of God
41. Taking the name of Sadguru, the light mixed with divine light, Dayanand Brahmanand became one with God
42. A huge procession was taken out, burial place was created in the religious school and Dayanand Saraswati was buried there
43. In each of Shree's life phases of 12 years, one divine being met Shree and Shree got their company
44. In the childhood phase – Upasani baba met Shree and Shree got his company
45. Om 1938 ,the second phase ends, this phase was denoted by the name – Education
46. On this phase, the head of Gurumandir, Gangadhar Maharaj met Shree and Shree got his company
47. The phase of Study had just began when this event happened, demise of his teacher/Guru
48. Shree started thinking that he was all alone now, Shree felt like this and thoughts were going in this direction
49. While thoughts about life's direction were going on in people, Umabai brought up the subject of Shree's marriage
50. By all practical means, She was the distant grandmother of Shree, She had brought up Shree from his early childhood
51. Shree and his sister used to call her mother or small aunt from their childhood
52. Now being the wife of the head of the Gurumandir, She had become Matoshree and she herself brought up the subject of Shree's marriage
53. Marriage is essential for you, otherwise what is there to life, otherwise who will carry on your work forward
54. Shree did not wish to get married and on the first anniversary of death of his guru, he decided to accept Sanyas/Bachelorhood
55. There were 3 days left for the anniversary, girl was brought to show to Shree
56. Khanderao Jawalekar, he persuaded Umabai a lot for considering his cousin sister worthy of this honor
57. We saw, but nothing special happened, our meeting did not make much progress – these were Shree's words at that time
58. Shree got up from sleep in the morning and he saw Gangadhar Maharaj standing in front of him and he said in 2 sentences
59. Girl has been shown, She is acceptable to us, Shree obeyed the orders and wished of his Guru
60. There was a great shock because of this on Shree's body, mind and soul, but still he considered his Guru's orders and wishes and obeyed them
61. There was no plan or compulsion to obey the orders, still Shree thought that if the orders were to change, his Guru will change them himself
62. Such were Shree's thoughts, but orders did not change, Shree was an ideal example of how a disciple should be
63. Shree gave his approval to the marriage, Vinayakrao Jawalekar's sister who was shown, the relation was finalized with her
64. 1940 May 7, it was a Sunday of Vaishak Shudh Chaturthi
65. On this auspicious moment, Shree's marriage took place at 11 o'clock in the morning
66. Next to Gurumandir, there is a Ram mandir, the marriage took place in that Ram mandir
67. Marriage took place in front of Ram, Ram himself was the witness, Shree Ram appeared himself and blessed the marriage
68. Then Gangadhar Maharaj came from the other side and blessed the bride, there was content in his looks
69. He himself gave a dream, the disciple followed his wishes, even when he did not want to get married, he obeyed his orders
70. The proof of this was in his content looks and he sang heartily the rituals of marriage
71. At that time, a divine person appeared behind Shree, he was very illustrious and glowing, he had a parshu in his hands
72. This was Parshuram, he stood behind Shree and blessed the couple and watched the ceremony
73. From his vision, two rays of light fell on the couple and power started flowing
74. One ray on Shree and second on Malutai, two rays fell on them for split seconds
75. In Malutai's ray, there was presence of Renukamata, Jamadagni's powers were is Shree's ray
76. Both the rays enveloped in the couple in seconds and putting his hand on couple's head, he blessed them
77. All the gods from above, sprayed divine flowers from sky from their planes and expressed their happiness
78. In this way, Malutai became Devi Sharada and entering the Gurumandir became great in this world
79. After 3 ¾ years of Shree's becoming head of the Gurumandir, a letter came from Sakori carrying Upasani baba's orders
80. Letter was addressed from Upasani baba to Shree and message of the letter was – Come and meet us
81. Immediately after this letter, occurred Upasani baba's death , 1940 Dec 24th
82. The letter writer thought that it was the wishes of Upasani baba, but the meeting of the two was not destined
83. On this Shree replied back – We received the letter, it happened as per the wishes of baba, our meeting happened
84. The people of Sakori and Akkalkot, were very surprised by Shree's explanations
85. Shree was here only, the people over here knew, Shree did not come to Sakori, people of Sakori knew this
86. Shree did not leave from here, Shree did not go to Sakori, then how did their meeting take place
87. But there was proof of Shree's words himself, our meeting happened, this was a mystery to everybody
88. In divine people's lives, some events are explicit, some event are secret, the planning is such
89. Some events are disclosed at the right time, for some event's explanation , a thorough study is needed
90. Without leaving Akkalkot, without going to Sakori, the meeting of both happened, such are the powers of Shree
91. Do not forget us – Baba had told Shree in his childhood, then how would Shree forget?
92. When did Shree meet? What did they talk? What was decided? It is a subject of study
93. On the next day on Dec 5th, Upasani baba passed away and burial ceremony was held for his body
94. On the same day, Shree had the spiritual revelation, this is a royal secret, study is required on this to understand its meaning
95. On the day, Upasani finished his life journey, Shree got his divine knowledge
96. The revelation of true form of Shree took place on this day, this mystery is very important, the moment was divine
97. Dec 25th – a great importance is attached to this day, a lot of great events occurred on this day
98. Dec 25th – Upasani baba's burial, Shree got the orders of divine knowledge
99. Jesus Christ descended on this earth on this very day, such is the importance of Dec 25th
100. Shree got the divine knowledge, this story is foretold in the next episode, very fluid narration
101. By praying to Shree and referring him in mind and soul, the writing of ninth episode completes.
Shree Gajanan Maharaj

This paper seeks to provide a perspective on contemporary Philippine labor migrations by viewing this phenomenon in light of analogous transborder movements of workers in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Based on information about so-called Manilla men in Australia and British Malaya, the paper discusses living and working conditions of migrant workers in the earlier period. The paper takes up the broader context of indentured work in the nineteenth century and the reaction by such countries of origin as China and Japan to interrogate the pervasive sense of shame and victimization felt in present-day Philippines arising from the export of labor. The broad parameters of the Philippine national narrative are explored in view of the continuities and changes in the relationship between national identity and long-distance movements of workers.

AMD 7nm Navi Graphics Cards Will Release In Q3 Of 2019
American Multinational Semiconductor Company, AMD has confirmed that the highly anticipated Navi Graphics Cards will make their way into the market in the third quarter of 2019. Along with upcoming GPUs, the company is also reported to unveil the first Zen 2 architecture based CPUs. The aforementioned information was revealed following AMD's latest financial figures which were leaked previously.
The Navi GPU chip will be manufactured using 7nm fabrication technology. AMD will initially release mid-range models for the same, which are speculated to be the Navi 10 GPUs. Further iterations, including the more powerful Navi 20 graphics cards will be launched later in the year 2020, reports state. The Navi 20 series graphics cards will go up against NVIDIA's more powerful GPUs, such as the RTX 2080 and RTX 2070.
AMD's Upcoming Big Revelations
The company has also hinted towards some big chunks of information regarding the upcoming GPUs that will be revealed at the Computex Keynote in May 2019. However, since rumours are stating that the 7nm Graphics Cards will be launched on 7/7, or the 7th Of July, AMD might just limit the information reveal to a tease regarding the GPUs. This falls in line with their recent announcement of the Navi Cards release in the third quarter.
Also Read: Sonic The Hedgehog Trailer Released, Sonic's Appearance Leaves Fans Disappointed
As mentioned previously, AMD will also unveil its first Zen 2-based 7nm processor in the same quarter, which is codenamed "Rome". They will comprise of second-gen EPYC chips, which will be targeted towards heavyweight data handling and server management. AMD's move towards 7nm based components can be a power-move for the company. Since NVIDIA released the budget-friendly yet powerful GTX 1660 Ti GPU, AMD's new Navi 10 cards will have to gain ground here in order to go up against the former graphics card.
