All record objects and table Peer objects will have a getTableMap() function. You can use this to access all the schema information. E.g.: rec.getTableMap().getColumn(fieldName).getType(); Will return a "sample object" of the same type as the field. Note that the XML can defined the objects being returned via the getFieldName() methods as primitives. Since you can't return a primitive, the getType() returns the Object version of the primitive.

The last chapter of the book is called "Toward the Middle Ages", so it really deals with what is prehistory to us, but I'd still recommend it if you are interested for example in library classification/organisation or in how books were acquired, i.e. copied and spread, in the ancient world. The book has a reasonable list of literature and sources, but it is not an academic treatise and I found it easy to read and suitable for e.g. commuting literature that one reads in smaller bits (I started on the plane and had it as bedtime literature after that, reading a few pages at a time).
A small snippet of information to tickle your imagination:
In the ruins of the Royal Palace of Ebla, a Sumerian palace near Aleppo in Syria, burned down by invaders in 2300-2250 B.C, a room was found that had to be a working library of the palace scribes. With mounts of administrative records on clay tablets, there was a small collection of tablets with among others word lists, many bilingual in Sumerian and Eblaite. This collection would have fitted on one shelf and the tablets could have easily been browsed through when checking on a word. This was over 3000 years ago!
However, what really got me thinking is the transition of book formats that happens during the period the book describes. After the small excursion into the clay tables, comes the time of long rolls of papyrus leaves, two layers set crossways and pounded to stick together and rolled up - the (papyrus) roll. Codex, our book, doesn't appear until around 100 A.D.
The Greek and Roman libraries - including the famous one in Alexandria - stored their book rolls piled up in niches. At least in the Roman libraries each niche for books would need to be fully lined with wood, i.e. have a book case, to isolate the rolls from the cold and damp wall and thus to stop them from going moldy; a precaution a lot less needed in the drier Egyptian climate. Each roll had a tag at the top end that had the basic information: whose book, which part of that book and in libraries often also a locator mark (bookcase number, for example). Book rolls were fragile, so library assistants would go and get them and bring them to the reader in a bucket, tags up, instead of letting visitors browse the shelves freely.
(BTW, most libraries in the non-Greek parts of the Roman empire seem to have had two sections, often in opposite ends of a building complex: the Greek library and the Latin library. In the Greek area one would not bother with a Latin section or it would be really small - Latin may have been the language of engineering, politics and bureaucracy, but it never won over Greek in the more cultured setting!)
The advantage of the papyrus roll is that material was pretty easy to get and apparently doesn't need too much preparation, either. But the roll format has quite many disadvantages: you need two hands to read a book roll (the classic era roll is read or "scrolled" sideways!) and the text can only be on one side of the paper. Because of the latter, the famous (and less famous) classic works did not fit on one roll, you needed a whole pile. And if you wanted to make notes, you had to weigh the roll down on a table to keep the correct spot visible while you write. Or then you'd do like Pliny the Elder and employ an educated slave to read the books aloud for you while you make notes!
The codex, developed in Rome from a bound pile of wax tables, was a welcome novelty. It was the "pocket edition" of the day, a way of taking a whole book along on a trip. Leafing through is easier than in a roll and one can even stick something into the book as a bookmark and it'll stay there. It still took about 300 years for the codex really to become the norm, despite it's advantages. Codices were also made out of papyrus, so writing material alone doesn't explain the development - Casson thinks it was just a matter of habit, both that of readers and that of scribes; they were used to rolls.
However, there's an exception and this is of importance to us. Casson writes (page 129 in my edition):
The finds from Egypt demonstrate unequivocally that from the very beginning Christians used only the codex for their copies of the Bible and strongly favored it for their other religious writings.Casson's theory is that this is partly due to the fact that early Christianity had a stronghold in the city of Rome, the home of codex format. He also points out that the codex format is free from associations that the roll of papyrus (pagan) or parchment (Jewish), would have in the Roman context. Whatever the reasons, the adoption of codex as the format for Christian writings had far reaching consequences:
..., as Christianity expanded, so did its use of the codex, and when, from Constantine's reign on, Chrstianity was more or less the established religion, codices were to be seen in every church and school of the empire. This surely speeded up the overall displacement of the roll. (p. 130)...and so was laid ground to the earliest medieval (monastic) libraries with shelves of stacked codices, the library we know.

The Smithfield-Selma wrestling team went under the spotlight one last time as the Spartans hosted their last Two Rivers 3A Conference dual meet of the season against Triton Thursday.
Fittingly on Senior Night, four seniors—A.J. Blackmon, Chris Parker, Wilmer Rojas and Tyler Talley—all earned pins during their final home meet to propel the Spartans to a 54-28 victory.
With just a solitary light hanging above the mat, a Smithfield-Selma tradition, the Spartans were at their best and improved to 5-2 on the season. Smithfield-Selma, at 2-2 in the conference, is alone in fourth place in the league with one last meet against Corinth Holders remaining before the conference tournament.
"To come out and win your final match as a senior is special," Spartans coach Kristian Stewart said. "It's a good motivator for them here at the end of the season to get ready for the conference tournament and postseason, hopefully, states for some of them."
With Triton forfeiting five matches, the Hawks had a big hole to crawl out of, but pins from Jason Bryant (126 pounds), Hunter Young (132), Christian Canales (152) and Ken Jackson (160) helped give Triton the 28-24 lead.
At 120, Blackmon took an early 5-0 lead over Triton's Zachary Hunter with a takedown and near fall in the final seconds of the first period and then earned the full six points with a pin early in the second period.
"Tonight was pretty good," Blackmon said of his last time wrestling at home. "I'm proud that I won today."
Parker (220) and Talley (138) were in complete control of their matches from the onset and earned first-period pins. Rojas needed a reversal late in the first period of his spirited heavyweight match against the Hawks' Shawn Lemon to finally get control and earned a pin 11 seconds before the period ended.
For Talley, it was good to be under that spotlight one last time.
"I never wrestled under a spotlight until I moved to North Carolina," said Talley, who has wrestled for the Spartans for two tears after moving from Ohio before his junior season. "When you go under the spotlight, everything just zones out… there's no looking back."
Brandon Deleon (a first-year wrestling senior), Roberts Hicks, Ryan Jones, Anthony Masterton and Jackson Parker all benefited from Triton forfeits and earned wins without needing to wrestle.
"We had a lot of young guys this year but we also had some seniors wrestling here for our last time under the spotlight," Talley said. "It felt great to get the win."
Malichi Barnes, Logan Cox, Spencer Powell and Emilio Spells rounded out the rest of the Spartan senior class.
SSS will host the Two Rivers 3A Conference individual championships on Feb. 1.

On Sunday, July 21st the HYTE Park Festival will celebrate the launch of it's first event with some of the most popular players in the current Techno underground. Governors Island in the Upper New York Bay will tremble with the beats of Chris Liebing, Boris, DVS1, Guti, Robert Dietz, Hector, Monoloc and Tommy Four Seven.
Leading up to the event, HYTE will be releasing a series of interview with the artists. Next up is DVS1...
You have been part of the electronic music scene for years now and have been playing numerous international venues. What kind of changes have you noticed in the global scene?
Some good, some not so good, The music in general is becoming more accepted and spreading to lots of places where it might not have had a reach in the past, but with this success and popularity there are lots of people in it for the wrong reasons and just using the community for their own self gains.
There is the ongoing discussion about the "underground" and the "mainstream" sound. Especially in the U.S. with the rise of EDM, a lot a new people get in touch with electronic music for the first time. What is your opinion about this development and where do you see yourself in the big picture?
I'm absolutely happy that new people are discovering this music through "mainstream" accessibility, but in all reality only a tiny percentage of those will find or even seek out something deeper or more "real". When I was younger, I would always try and make everyone understand my taste, I would always try and sell everyone on what I was listening to and couldn't understand why someone wouldn't "get it". As I've grown older, I realize that what I love isn't made for everyone and I would much rather play to an "underground" audience that appreciates this music then try to sell it to an audience who could care less.
Do you think it´s important at all with what kind of equipment DJs are playing their music, or do you think it much rather comes down to the result and the impact of what you are doing? In other words, what is your opinion regarding vinyl versus digital DJs?
I won't get into this in detail, as we could go on for hours, and honestly, my personal opinion doesn't matter as the world will still evolve regardless. My only comment is that I believe someone who comes from an understanding of beat matching vinyl approaches digital dj'ing different and I can respect that. But someone who only lives in the computer with controllers and sync is walking a very thin line and is NOT a dj. If they only know or think in the context of SYNC and not using tactile touch as part of their understanding, I don't personally feel it is coming anywhere near the true art of being a DJ.
What would you consider the best technological invention of the last ten years?
Internet, I know it's older than 10 years, but the internet has brought people together on a lot of things. But with every positive comes a negative.. it's also taken us away from personal interaction on a human level just as much..
What was the most unforgettable moment in your career?
Playing a 12 hour set in Berghain. Proper out of body experience.

Buena Park, CA (PRWEB) July 22, 2016
Sometimes a child seems to be developing normally and suddenly stops learning new words or worse, stops speaking at all. In older children signs of autism might include difficulty socializing or unusual or obsessive behavior during play. If a parent or caregiver suspects autism, where can they go to rule out or confirm their suspicion? The truth is that getting an autism evaluation isn't always that easy. While primary care physicians can diagnose, many refer to specialists and there are a limited number of specialty providers to meet the demand.
One in 68 children will be diagnosed with autism in the U.S. and early diagnosis and intervention can improve outcomes dramatically. Nobody knows that better than Speech and Language Development Center (SLDC) which offers autism evaluations at their new assessment center.
SLDC is a special education school and therapy center for children with autism and other disabilities that serves clients six months through 21 years. The Center has been helping kids for 60 years and has seen many examples of the impact of early intervention. Autism evaluations are performed by a neuropsychologist who is on staff at the Center and include parent consultation and follow up, two hours of observation and conclude with comprehensive recommendations. The Center has the unique advantage of having experts in multiple fields on-site, allowing for a collaborative approach to evaluation and treatment.
About Speech and Language Development Center:
Speech and Language Development Center is a nonprofit school and therapy center serving children and young adults, age six months through 21 years. Drawing on 60 years of knowledge, skill and success, SLDC provides remediation for language/learning, emotional/social and neurologically-based needs to students with a broad range of diagnoses. The majority have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. The Center is certified by the California State Department of Education and licensed by the California State Department of Social Services.

Spirit Matter on
Good luck on your noble effort to bring to light a primary cause of dysfunction and conflict between just two people all the way up to conflict between empires.
A shared thought...Just as the success of an airplane design depends on the degree of understanding and implementation of physical laws, the success of human relations depends on the degree of understanding and implementation of social laws. There is nothing "religious" about this although I believe a Creator is involved.
The title of your film strikes at the foundation of human relationship dysfunction...unequal rights. The Creator revealed the principle/law of equality. All humans are endowed with equal rights. The result of implementing this is that no human has a superior right to harm or infringe on the equal rights of another. Justice will result in the punishment being no more nor no less than the harm done. All mutually beneficial relationships, from two individuals to multiple nations, must involve continual mutual respect and consent. This is the Creator/ the Christ's way of loving your neighbor equal to the love you should have for yourself.
Mankind from Adam/Eve to today has generally rejected the principle of equality and chosen the principle of superior/inferior rights. Humans, like sheep, tend to look for someone they can set up as a shepherd with superior rights over them. The shepherd in turn tells them that they are superior to others and can enslave them or kill them if needed. (Roman empire, British empire etc.) Our Founding Fathers rejected the superior rights of the king and aristocracy but we have yet to see the full implementation of equal rights that the Creator intended and the Founding Fathers and Martin Luther King dreamed about. Again, good luck in your efforts.

I like the idea of your project. The world urgently needs more people that understand the mechanisms behind organizing group violence, and thus have a better chance of resisting this type of manipulation. And your movie will help spread the word!
Having been interested in understanding how humans from civilized societies can do the horrible stuff they regularly do in war, I did some reading and watched tons of documentaries on the subject. There was one piece of research that most impressed me concerning this field, and I want to share this:
For the role of dehumanization in genocide, my favorite reference is an excellent German book by Prof. Dr. Harald Welzer, namely "Täter. Wie aus ganz normalen Menschen Massenmörder werden." (roughly translated: "Perpetrators: How totally normal people become mass-murderers"), which is sadly not available in English as far as I know. The book is partly based on "Ordinary People as Mass Murderers: Perpetrators in Comparative Perspective: The Holocaust and Its Contexts" by Olaf Jensen and Claus-Christian W. Szejnmann , which I did not read, though.
However, in his book Prof. Dr. Welzer describes how dehumanization is an important step in a process that leads to a situation were the killing of a certain group of people is deemed a good deed, a service to society, and thus a task that will be done by totally normal people. He demonstrates this using the history of genocides, but I think it will also apply to group violence in general, which includes war. In such social situations killing a person perceived as an "enemy" is suddenly a "good deed", even though the act would have been punished as a murder some years before this situation, and the social situation is created using dehumanization in the first place.
Maybe it could contribute to your project to contact Prof. Dr. Welzer and ask him for feedback on your project. His homepage can be found at http://www.kulturwissenschaften.de/en/home/profil-hwelzer.html

GALLERY | Donald Trump makes campaign stop in Asheville
ASHEVILLE, N.C. (WLOS) - Several thousand people filled the U.S. Cellular Center on Monday for Donald Trump's campaign event in Asheville.
Things got violent in the upper level, when a man hit two protesters being escorted out, and made contact with a female.
After walking down, the female gave the crowd below the middle finger.
News 13 saw police kick several other people out. One man said he came to observe how Trump could convince people to support him.
"I was with somebody who said Trump is a racist, which is something I can't really argue against, and when a supporter heard that, he turned to me and started making threats," Matthew Graunke, of Asheville, said. "The first thing he said was, 'I've got bail money.'"
Friday night, Hillary Clinton said Trump lifts up people who hate Muslims, LGBT people and non-whites. Clinton said those people belong in "a basket of deplorables."
News 13 saw somebody in the crowd wearing an "I am deplorable" shirt. Trump repeatedly said his supporters were not deplorable.
"While my opponent slanders you as deplorable and irredeemable, I call you hardworking American patriots who love your country and want a better future for all our people," Trump said on Monday.
Supporters thought Trump gave a great speech. They enjoyed seeing him in person.
"I thought that was great. He said the most amazing stuff that I've ever heard," Coleman Enloe, of Hendersonville, said.
Trump was on stage for about 40 minutes. A campaign employee said Trump would be back to WNC.


text: It's been a long time since the world heard from Dan Melchior's Broke Revue. Their last album, O Clouds Unfold!, was recorded in 2004 and was posthumously released in 2009. During their five year existence, the band's sound evolved from raw, blues-based rock 'n' roll to a more experimental / post-punk style. Since the band disbanded, Melchior has carried on with a solo career that has been prolific, to say the very least. The volume of singles, albums and cassettes that he's churned out over the past decade has been staggering.

The sustainability community gathered in Amsterdam last week for the GRI global conference and the rollout of the G4 version of the reporting framework. Notable sustainability thinkers from around the world convened. Among those represented, members of ISO, IIRC, CDP, OECD, and many other international NGOs and policy organizations came together to debate the future of sustainable business and to discuss the implications of the latest evolution of reporting. While the debates made clear that we have a lot more work to do to get international agreement on how to achieve sustainable development, some key themes of the G4 include:
- The ABC level rubric (often mistaken for a report "grade") has been replaced with more neutral options of "core" and "comprehensive" reporting. We think this is a good development because it should allow those who were reluctant to turn in a "C" report to move forward.
- The new framework is more focused on those indicators that are deemed material to specific industries and enterprises. This development should move us from lengthy check box reports to reports that are more concise and at the same time more meaningful.The work of harmonizing the G4 framework to other international standards is in process and some of this work is published in the new guidelines. Tracking of reporting dimensions has been mapped to the U.N. Global Principles, the U.N. Global Compact, the OECD Guidelines for Multi-national Enterprises, and the IIRC exposure framework. Though not included in the initial publication, work has been done also on the ISO 26000 and this is anticipated for future publication.
- The G4 framework with its emphasis on material impacts throughout the value chain will inevitably lead to more demands for reporting through the supply chain. Though this may present initial challenges to SMEs, it also presents an opportunity for larger enterprises to help their smaller suppliers meet the demand for sustainability performance and reporting. Support in this dimension can promote not only better performance, but also loyalty.
We look forward to reporting more as we gear up to develop our G4 training curriculum this fall. For more information on the Global Reporting Initiative training and how the Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship can help, please visit: www.bccc.net/GRI. Organizations can continue to employ the G3.1 framework up to two reporting cycles (or through December 31, 2015).

Why we need your help
A sanctuary to maintain
In recent years, we have carried out a lot of work in the sanctuary but the maintenance of these places, that saw an "ordinary" family become a holy family, is an ongoing process.
The Little Sisters of St. Therese of the Infant Jesus s who welcome the pilgrims cannot achieve this alone.
That is why we need your financial support.
A reception area and accommodation for pilgrims
Nearly 20,000 people visit the sanctuary each year; we need to provide it with a place for food, drink and shelter to its visitors.
The canonization will increase the number of visitors and the acquisition of a shelter will soon be essential
Exceptional expenses for the canonization of spouses Martin
The canonization of spouses Martin requires funding: such as the arrangement of a chapel in the basilica for future saints, buying a reliquary, making banners and jumpers, as well as expenses due to the canonization herself
Your donations are essential. Thank you in advance for your generosity

I hope that your week is going well. Last night was the first night with the CPAP machine, and I got some sleep. I woke up a couple of times, but when I got up I felt rested. My friend Alan came over and we went for a 20 minute walk. I kept pretty busy today. I had to run errands and attend a meeting at the synagogue. I felt pretty good all day. I have been sharing my experiences so far on my new journey with friends. I've got a lot of support, which I am grateful for. I walked up a hill today and I was not as out of breath as before. That felt good. Tomorrow I am seeing a very good friend who has really been there for me. I am glad I will get the chance to talk to him about the changes I am making in my life today. Thank you for reading my email. I had a tough time getting out of bed this morning. In fact, I took the CPAP mask off and stayed in bed until the latest possible moment before seeing the sleep doctor this afternoon. This was the first day I did not eat breakfast since I started. I noticed the difference not having it. I did eat something, (tangerine and a lite string cheese) but did not eat again until 6PM. My friend Chris took me to the grocery store. He does the shopping for his household, and it gives us an opportunity to talk while we get stocked up for the week. When I came home I felt exhausted. That was around the same time we spoke over the telephone. I am planning to write about the opportunity you've presented to me over the weekend. I realize that for today I did not meet up with my own expectation. I did not do the best today. Chalk it up to bad planning and make it a learning experience.

Life is worth living for us when we make the best of our environment and enjoy the bounties of nature. A clean and unpolluted environment does wonders to our overall health, and we can be rest assured of longevity of life. Unfortunately, this appears to be more of an ideal situation and the reality is that we are exposed to various pollutants and carbon emissions led by various vehicular and other industrial set-ups which are adversely affecting our health.
What environ pollutants affect us adversely?
Nature, by itself is clean and beautiful and man-made manifestations have resulted in its pollution. To breathe healthy has become difficult these days, and one can get much respite if only one is able spend some leisure time in park. Outside, while moving around the city, one is constantly exposed to polluted air that negatively impacts one's health and causes serious illnesses and diseases which can result in early death. What causes this unwanted air and noise pollution?
- Carbon emissions let out by vehicular traffic.
- Daily vehicular noise.
- Industrial wastage and emissions that pollute the air and other natural surroundings such as lakes.
- Unhealthy disposal of garbage.
- Water-logging, which leads to breading of mosquitoes.
- Unhygienic surroundings.
How does polluted environ affect us?
- Carbon emissions let out by vehicular traffic lead to several respiratory diseases and other serious fatal ailments such as cancer.
- Polluted water can lead to serious stomach ailments.
- Noisy surroundings can damage the ears and also cause much stress and tensions.
- Stressful, polluted environment can cause cardiovascular diseases, particularly if one is constantly exposed to noise and pollution.
It is quite evident that polluted environ can cause serious diseases and ailments and lead to early death. We lead fast paced life-styles and the youth is also under tremendous stress to earn their livelihood and lead a better life-style. Similarly, even the children and the elderly do not find proper environment to spend their leisure hours and are exposed to noise and unwanted pollutants.
World-wide much concern has been expressed to ensure better health for the citizens. Environmentalists have voiced their concern at various forums and NGOS have taken up the issue.
How will Hyderabad Metro Rail mitigate the effect of polluted environ?
- As vehicular traffic is a major cause for air- pollution, the arrival of Hyderabad Metro Rail as a better public transport alternative to counter-act other modes of public transport which tend to release much carbon emissions.
- Less fatigue and stress as one will not be exposed to unnecessary noise and air-pollution.
- Dust-free travel.
- Relaxed travel, easy on the nerves for the elderly, who will certainly find the most comfortable mode of public transport.
- One need not undergo stress on account of traffic jams, which will in turn positively affect a person's health.
- One can travel in comfort and ease long-distance, without suffering from frayed nerves.
The youth as well as other environment- conscious citizens need to take some time and think hard as to how to improve their surroundings for better health and longevity of life. Why die early?… when there is so much to enjoy in life. After all, a life well- lived is well remembered by all.

Cecelia Ahern Quotes About HugsQuotes about: Hugs
We have a long way to go to being the perfect couple, we certainly don't live the fairy tale marriage, he doesn't shower me with rose petals and fly me to Paris on weekends but when I get my hair cut, he notices. When I dress up to go out at night, he compliments me. When I cry, he wipes my tears. When I feel lonely, he makes me feel loved. And who needs Paris, when you can get a hug?
She was tired of hugging pillows, counting on blankets for warmth, and reliving romantic moments only in her dreams. She was tired of hoping that every day would hurry so she could get on to the next. Hoping that it would be a better day, an easier day. But it never was. Worked, paid the bills, and went to bed but never slept. Each morning the weight on her shoulders got heavier and heavier and each morning she wished for night to fall quickly so she could return to her bed to hug her pillows and wrap herself in the warmth of her blankets.
Holly smiled weakly. Gerry would know exactly how she was feeling, he would know exactly what to say and he would know exactly what to do. He would give her one of his famous hugs and all her problems would melt away. She grabbed a pillow from her bed and hugged it tight. She couldn't remember the last time she hugged someone, really hugged someone. And the depressing thing was that she couldn't imagine ever embracing anyone the same way again.

The Cleaning Authority CARES Scholarship Awarded to Rilie BarnesJul 20, 2017
The Cleaning Authority and its franchise locations value the importance of education and encourage their employees to pursue higher education. The Cleaning Authority CARES scholarship honors employees of The Cleaning Authority as well as the spouses and children of employees who are working to further their education. In April, The Cleaning Authority CARES awarded ten scholarships in the amount of $1,000. The scholarship will help to off-set the costs of tuition, books, or fees at any accredited university, college, trade, or technical school.
Rilie Barnes, whose mother is a Quality Inspector in The Cleaning Authority of Gladstone, was awarded one of the scholarships to assist her as she attends the University of St. Mary. Rilie's achievement was featured in the Gladstone Dispatch and the Leavenworth Times. "I am beyond grateful for the opportunities I have been given by The Cleaning Authority. Over this past summer, I actually got to work alongside my mother at The Cleaning Authority. This time really gave me a better appreciation for what they do and how hard my mom works," Rilie told Leavenworth Times. "Receiving this scholarship has alleviated a lot of stress for my mom funding my college tuition."

The Portland Rose Festival Foundation Board of Directors is made up of up to 75 local leaders who implement the Foundation's mission, work on committees for Rose Festival events, and fulfill assigned roles at these events. Many of these hard-working volunteers even use their own vacation time to work on their assigned events. The Rose Festival truly could not happen without their dedication and commitment.
Mission Statement
The Portland Rose Festival Foundation is a non-profit that serves families and individuals with programs and events that promote the arts, education and volunteerism. We value environmental responsibility, diversity, patriotism and our historic & floral heritage.

Message from the Rose Festival President
My name is Brett Baker, and I am the current president of the board of the Portland Rose Festival Foundation. I am a native Oregonian, growing up in Salem. My love of the Rose Festival started, as it has for many Oregonians, with my family. Both of my sets of grandparents loved the Rose Festival. They, along with my parents, brought my brother and me to the Rose Festival events, the parades, the waterfront rides and the navy ships. We of course loved it.
Some years ago as a young commercial banker, I was the banker for the Rose Festival. I then developed a healthy respect for the organization for its significant impact to the local economy, tourism and enhancement of the reputation for both Portland and Oregon. It drives more than $65 million of economic impact each year. Once I joined the board, I began to have a more philosophical feel for the Rose Festival. It is one of the key touchstones for Oregonians that binds us together in a positive way. It is amazing to me that 500,000 people come out in person every year to watch our parades. To me that proves that the Rose Festival is relevant and important to Oregonians.
It's my honor to serve as the President of the Rose Festival, and I sincerely hope everyone has a Brilliant Rose Festival experience this year!
Brett Baker
President, Portland Rose Festival Foundation

Band On Band
Welcome to our 'Band on Band' series, where our own artists and friends of the label talk about their fave BSM releases and why. Read/listen on - we hope you discover something great too – tell us on our socials if you do!
Dave, Gulfer on TTNG
Dave from Gulfer tells us why the TTNG/Cats and Cats and Cats split was one of his favourite BSM releases:
"While impossible to choose one favourite, I'm gonna have to go with the This Town Needs Guns / Cats and Cats and Cats split. It was one of the first mathy releases I had ever found at age 17, and completely reshaped and greatly informed my taste in music to this day. I remember being completely blown away at how simultaneously complex and melodic it was, and how much more real and authentic it felt compared to the music of my earlier teens. It was also the first release I recall seeing BSM attached to, prompting a lifelong love affair with the label!"
Sean, Modern Baseball on Tiny Moving Parts
Tiny Moving Parts have just released their fourth record ' Swell' so it's always a good time to talk about them! Last year Sean from Modern Baseball told us why he loves the band so much especially their third album 'Celebrate'!
"Maybe this is biased because because I'm just talking about my 3 favorite (and most "thorough") drinking buddies. But aside from that fact is the fact that TMP are 3 of the most talented musicians I've ever had the pleasure of touring with.
These boys allude a music synchrony that may only be possible when you're a family band from Benson, Minnesota. I believe Celebrate is their true come to form. It has the technical musicianship of "This Couch", the hooks from "Pleasant Living", and combines the two with an energy that takes them so far to the next level. The songs feel the heaviest of their career, "heavy" both stylistically and physically. The record sounds HUGE. Polished but in-your-face, the way a rock record should be ey?
Can't wait to shotgun and beer and watch what comes next from these boys. It's an honor to share a label after sharing the road together so many times."
Rolo Tomassi on Meet Me In St Louis
Something we all agree on at BSM is how awesome Rolo Tomassi are, and so we had to ask them about their fave release of ours. This is what they had to say about Meet Me in St Louis - Variations on Swing:
"MMISL were one of the first bands we 'properly' toured with that wasn't just a weekender or a cobbled together group of dates with loads of days off in between. I hadn't really heard them prior to these dates being suggested but I was aware of BSM as a label and probably knew Kev at this point so trusted the judgement of everyone around us that it was a good idea if we played shows together. Obviously I was pretty blown away.
This tour would have been just before Variations came out but they were mainly playing that material. I felt like I practically knew the record inside out by the time it was released but was still in love with the proper, studio versions of the tracks. I revisited it last year ahead of getting to see them play one last time at ArcTanGent (in 2016) and it still feels as vital as it did when I first saw them play. I can't think of many other bands that have and would have that effect on you. Essential listening"
Loz, Cassels on Bear vs Shark
Bear vs Shark hailed from Michigan and lasted a mere four years between 2001 and 2005. With influences including Les Savy Fav, The Clash, comic books and Patrick Swayze, they produced a unique mix of punk, post-hardcore and Midwest indie, that's still missed by many! One of our young guns, Loz, from Cassels, told us how he started listening to this old classic:
"I'm big into the Bear vs Shark release at the moment. For those who don't know them, they're like a Midwest indie/post-hardcorey amalgamation of greatness.
I literally heard them on an old BSM sampler (God bless Spotify) and they've turned out to be a great find. Kylie is my fave track from the album - it starts with quiet pop-like hooks and then out of nowhere goes into this nuts breakdown which unleashes the singer's screams, and he's got one helluva voice. I hear they played some reunion shows, so if they fancy coming over to the UK to do a couple that'd be swell"
Tall Ships on Hop Along
Ric from (the sadly departing) Tall Ships tells us why 'Get Disowned' by Hop Along is one of his favourite BSM releases:
"My personal fave would have to be 'Get Disowned' by Hop Along. Francis Quinlan's voice, melodies and lyrics are so unique and on point it's hard not to be moved by every single line she sings. That alongside the playful and inventive production means it's an album that (even years on...) reveals more and more with every listen!"
Kevin Devine on mewithoutYou
Kevin Devine tells us why you all should be listening to Ten Stories from mewithoutyou:
"It was a toss-up between that & I Am Gemini by Cursive, actually, and for the same reasons - both are friends & boundary-pushers I admire & respect for continuing to make vibrant, challenging music deep into their careers, and both are bands I toured with on these respective records & got to hear every night, trips I remember fondly & relationships I keep current to this day.
mewithoutYou is very much its own beautiful & strange animal, and I'm partial to this collection of songs, and their execution - a little bit of everything that makes them Them is present & accounted for, dense & vivid & evocative story-telling over dynamic & adventurous structures. "
Billy Hutton, Milk Teeth on Woahnows
Billy Hutton of Milk Teeth tell us why Woahnows are one of his 'go to' Summer records!
"It's extremely difficult to choose just one record that BSM has released as a favourite, but after much thought I'm gonna have to go with "Woahnows - Understanding and Everything Else". From the very start it hits you with a banger. But the album really touched my heart strings with "Puncher". Tim's voice / vocal melody in that song really stands out to me. It's the perfect summer record and but I always seem to listen to it when it's cold to remind myself of the sun. They're also a cracking band live and I'm never bored of watching them".
Ross , Lonely The Brave on Jeniferever
Ross of Lonely The Brave and (for older listeners) once of Secondsmile/The Tupolev Ghost tells us why his favourite BSM release is the Iris EP from Jeniferever.
"I guess it could be loosely put under the post rock tag, but it's way more than that. Real, proper beautiful songs with incredible instrumentation going on throughout, with a lot of soul to it.
It was released the same year as Secondsmile's debut EP in 2004 and I'd say it influenced us a great deal with the music we then went on to make. Listening to it now, it could have been released last week. Way ahead of the game that band. But saying that, hearing it again does take me right back to that golden time, and makes me happy and sad all at the same time. Wonderful years. This is a Beautifully melancholic record that I can't recommend enough".
Lucinda, Kamikaze Girls on La Dispute
My favourite BSM release was La Dispute 'Rooms Of The House' a couple of years back. I love everything about this record. I love how huge it sounds, and how intense it is.
Jordan's lyrics and approach to writing is incredible and I love how he takes a fictional concept and turns it into something really special.
Jeremy Bolm, Touche Amore on Kevin Devine
Jeremy from Touche Amore , tells us why you all should be listening to Kevin Devine.
'Kevin Devine is one of those special singer / songwriters that don't come around too often. I'd put him in the same line with the likes of Conor Oberst, Ben Gibbard, or Sufjan Stevens, not because they are anything alike but because they each have a hyper specific sound. You could pinpoint his influences from Elliott Smith to Leonard Cohen as they reflect his talent and lyrical abilities. Not only does Kevin continue to write heartfelt, honest, tragic and often humorous songs, he does it while radiating kindness and compassion. I'm not sure it's possible to be a fairweather KD fan, as once you're in, you're in for the long haul.'
Gnarwolves on Grown Ups
Charlie from Gnarwolves tells us why More Songs by Grown Ups is his favourite.
I remember when Gnarwolves first started & I met a bunch of lads who would always play a bunch of records at our house & this one always stood out for me. It was the tech style crossed with the gritty sound & vocals that sold it for me. I love the gruffed out vocals (obviously) haha. But yeah it was one of the first of what I call "twiddly emo" records I heard & it's still one of the best imo.

Smoke Rings is a fun game where You can puff smoke rings using Your mouth and the iPhone's built-in microphone! Try to puff perfect rings, double rings and try to send one ring through another in order to gain bonus points!
In order to puff smoke rings, You must first "suck" some smoke. To do this, try to suck the air out of the iPhone from its microphone at the bottom-right side of the iPhone, making some kind of "sssssh" noise. Put Your mouth right next to the microphone! You can only get a limited amount of smoke at a time so don't waste Your cigarette too much! Two or three seconds of full power must be enough of that. You must see a reddish glow at the bottom of the screen if You do it right. The brighter the glow the more smoke you get. When You think You got enough smoke, make a short puffing noise like "Pft" loudly and sharply right into the microphone until You see a ring! You must have a certain amount of smoke sucked or You won't get a ring at all.
To get the point and see how it works, check out the ttrgames.hu homepage or this video:
A single ring gives You 100 - 3700 points depending on its perfection. If You are good at it, You can puff two rings at once. If You manage to do so, You get a bonus! If You blow the second ring through the first, You get even more bonus!
This game is solely for fun, and not in any way tries to convince You to smoke - on the contrary, You might quit smoking using this application since it gives You something to "smoke" instead of a real cigarette without hurting Your health!
Compatible only with the iPhone (1G and 3G) and the 2nd gen. iPod Touch with restrictions. The 2nd generation iPod Touch must be equipped with a head-set with a microphone in order to play this game since it relies on sound input.
- Breath-controlled gameplay
- Beautiful realistic smoke rings
- Realistic smoking simulation
- Two difficulty levels
- Bonus points for perfect rings and tricks
- High-score tracking

As readers of Giving Thought may recall from the launch of the Back Britain's Charities campaign, one of the 'asks' of government – local and central – is to ensure that public bodies do not cut funding to charities disproportionately. Earlier this week an event was held in Parliament to investigate this call in more detail, with the majority of the panel and audience agreeing that charities should not be used as an easy way of making spending reductions.
In addition, CAF has released polling which demonstrates how passionately people across Britain care about the charities that they support – and that support them – and clearly expresses that they do not believe that charities should be seeing their funding cut disproportionately. By disproportionately, we mean cutting charity funding by a greater percentage than the overall cut a body is making to their budget. So for example, if Council X were making overall budget cuts of 5%, making cuts to charity funding of more than 5% would be disproportionate.
Recent research gives an indication of the importance of government funding to charities, as well as the impact that government cuts are creating. In fact, even if local authorities were making proportionate cuts to funding for charities, projections estimate that funding for the voluntary sector would be £1.7 billion lower by 2017/18 than it was in 2010/11. Given that FOIs have revealed that as many as half of councils are making disproportionate cuts, the reality is that the picture may be even gloomier.
There are, of course, broader issues, which strategist John Tizard referred to in his contribution to the debate on Monday. Namely, the Local Government Association has argued that the size of local government's central funding funding reduction across the current spending period means that councils have significantly less money to spend on local services. An increase in demand for adult social care services as a result of factors such as an aging population means that other service areas are being forced to bear the brunt of cuts, it is argued. We're under no illusion about the number of difficult conversations and decisions that are taking place in town halls across the country.
However, the reality is that over two thirds of the general public believe that funding to charities should not be cut disproportionately. And the Back Britain's Charities team has been asking elected officials from across the country to put their name to such a commitment, asking them to Back Britain's Charities and stand up against disproportionate cuts to the funding of charities. Many councillors of all political parties and none have been happy to add their name. They know firsthand of the value of charities, and are willing to stand up for the charities that local people rely on.
The Comprehensive Spending Review, due to take place on June 26th, will give a better indication of the challenges that lie ahead, as we'll see clearer details emerge about the size of the spending reductions that central and local government will face. We'll be watching with interest to see what the trends are, but as charities receive more of their funding from local and opposed to central government, it isn't until councils set their budgets for the years ahead that we'll have a better idea of the reality on the ground. Given the findings of our poll, however, it is clear that this will become an electoral issue, so it will be fascinating to see which councils follow the public mood and refuse to implement disproportionate cuts.

It's Only Fashion
Life is a series of stories you tell, and a life with style is a story told well. At BB Dakota, we believe in the woman who lives her life on her own terms, and looks good doing it. We design for the protagonists and the raconteurs. The woman who walks as gracefully as she falls over, who is equal parts Stravinsky and Seinfeld, who stays out too late and hermits out with equal heedlessness -- the woman who keeps you up at night long after she's gone to bed. We think that fashion -- even damn good fashion -- is only ever the means to an unpredictable end. And so our mission is to be your accomplice in your life. Our clothes will take you where you're going without getting in your way. Because the golden rule of a well-turned dress is never to interrupt a woman when she's speaking. Spilled a drink on your dress while dancing at a party? Keep dancing. Ripped your shirt climbing over the gate? Keep going. Maybe you spilled guac on your skirt. Maybe you jumped into the pool with your fur capelet on. So be it -- it's only fashion. What's important is what you plan on doing next. At BB Dakota, we love clothes, but we love the women who wear them more. That's why our clothes are exquisite, not expensive; wearable, not imitable. The clubby, exclusionary fashionworld does not interest us, and the idea that a pricey pant or a hallowed handbag can make a woman cool is, frankly, lame. When we spend too much on a dress, we worry about the dress. And when we're worried about a dress, we're not living in the moment. Anxiety is not glamorous. A price point is not glamourous. Glamour is looking exquisite and not giving a fuck. And that's what we're offering you here at BB Dakota: More life, less fucks. And as for the rest? It's only fashion.

Himeji No.2 goes commercial
The new M501J gas turbine combined cycle units at Himeji No.2 have successfully started commercial operation and are demonstrating world-class levels of efficiency.
Aerial view of Himeji No.2. The power station is the largest thermal power plant owned by Kansai Electric.
Five years ago the Kansai Electric Power Company (Kansai Electric) started a large-scale project to replace Himeji No.2 Thermal Power Station with what it claimed would be the world's most efficient combined cycle plant featuring Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS) 501J gas turbines.
The last unit of this environment friendly project, which targeted reduction of greenhouse gas emissions while securing a competitive power supply for the Kansai area, began commercial operation earlier this year.
The new combined cycle plant:
■ Has recorded an electrical efficiency over 60 %
■ Enables about 30% CO2 and 85% NOx reduction compared with the original plant
■ Will deliver savings in the order of $520 million per year compared with the old plant.
With the high price of gas in Japan – typically being four to five times that in the US – high efficiency has long been a pursuit of Japanese companies. Accordingly, when Kansai Electric, took the decision to replace the Himeji No.2 Thermal Power Station, it opted for state-of-the-art technology.
Although Kansai Electric could not foresee future events, the decision to opt for the most efficient technology proved to be visionary. Since the disaster at Fukushima, which forced the closure of the country's entire nuclear fleet, Japan has had to rely on thermal generation and expensive imported fuel. This had made Himeji 2 an even more important asset in Kansai Electric's generating portfolio.
MHPS installed the first 501J at its T-Point station, which is its validation plant. MHPS owns T-Point and sells the power output to Kansai Electric. Prior to Japan's nuclear shutdown, this plant used to predominantly operate in cycling mode, meeting peak demand for Kansai. Since Fukushima, however, it has been running more continuously to help ease the tight supply in the region.
Plant configuration
Himeji No.2 power station is the largest thermal power plant owned by Kansai Electric. The original plant, built in 1963, was composed of six conventional units with a total output of 2550 MW. These units were originally commissioned and operated with crude or heavy oil but were later converted to natural gas. Two of the original units are still in operation.
The new Himeji No.2 Thermal Power Station is a state-of-the-art combined cycle plant comprised of six single-shaft blocks rated 486.5 MW each (at an ambient of 4°C) for a total capacity of 2919 MW. Each block consists of one M501J gas turbine rigidly coupled to a SRT-50 single reheat steam turbine.
Because the gas and steam turbine are linked in a single shaft arrangement without a clutch, the gas turbine and steam turbine are ramped up at the same time.
All six combined cycle blocks have started commercial operation with high reliability and, according to MHPS, are demonstrating superior performance with a net efficiency in excess of 60%.
High efficiency GT
The main contributor to this high efficiency is the M501J gas turbine and its high turbine inlet temperature.
The M501J gas turbine has been designed with a turbine inlet temperature of 1600°C (2912°F) by integrating the proven component technologies used in the 1400°C F-series and the 1500°C G series turbines. The M501J also benefited from the development of key technologies for the national 1700°C-class gas turbine project.
The turbine has been carefully developed over a number of years. Operating tests of the first M501J gas turbine started in February 2011 at Machinery Works T-Point demonstration combined-cycle power plant in Takasago. The tests proceeded as scheduled with the first spin-up on February 2nd followed by first ignition soon after. The inlet temperature reached 1600°C on the seventh start-up. The unit went commercial on July 1, 2011.
The design of the M501J gas turbine is based on proven F- and G-series
■ The compressor shaft-end drive connected to the generator reduces the thermal expansion and eliminates the need for a flexible coupling.
■ The rotor has a two-bearing structure to support the compressor and turbine ends.
■ An axial flow exhaust structure is used to optimize the combined-cycle plant layout.
■ The rotor structure has bolt-connected disks with the torque pin in the compressor rotor and a disc with curved coupling in the turbine rotor to ensure reliable torque transmission.
The M501J turbine section is an axial-flow, four-stage, high-load, high-performance turbine.
Row-1 to row-4 rotating blades and rows 1-3 stationary vanes are air-cooled. Unlike the row-4 blades in the G-series turbine, which are uncooled, those in the J-series turbine are cooled to cope with the higher inlet temperature. As with the F- and G-series gas turbines MGA1400 (Mitsubishi Gas Turbine Alloy) is used for the rotating blades, while the vanes are made of MGA2400. The rows 1-3 blades are made of DS (directional solidified) superalloy.

Vegan Eats in Glasgow, Scotland
So I recently spent one full day in Glasgow, Scotland over the past Easter long weekend. The only other place I've ever visited in Scotland was Edinburgh, so I was really looking forward to exploring Glasgow and using it as a jumping off point to check out the Scottish Highlands (that'll come in another post). … [Read more…]

I'm taking some time off the usual blog rundown to remember my mom, who passed away two days ago. We weren't very close, but we didn't hate each other either. I saw her for the last time three weeks ago when I went to America for a visit, and we had the most lovely, warm, connecting visit you could muster between two people who should know each other better than they did. I know it sounds weird, but it was really nice. It was just our way.
I've been writing about the things I remember about her when I was young. Here are a few of my favorites:
She was beautiful—like crazy beautiful. She didn't wear a lot of makeup, but she had the most amazing hair, long, straight, silky. She always wore black liquid cat eye eyeliner and mascara. She had the best pro trick for putting on mascara—tilt a small table mirror under your lashes to make sure you get them completely covered, or tilt you head way up to get the roots. I still do it every day!
She's responsible for my love of literature. As a kid, she made sure I had a library card no matter where we lived. I remember her taking me to the library for the first time, and letting me check out a HUGE stack of books. I kept thinking, "I get to read all of these for free? This place is great!" She made sure I knew the walk to the library. She bought a huge set of Funk and Wagnalls encyclopedias from a telemarketer, which I still have, and she always let me buy as many books as I wanted from the Scholastic book club flyers that came to school in the 80's. I bought as many as I could. Stacks. The library is still one of my favorite places to be.
She made the best scrambled eggs, maybe ever. I don't know what her trick was (milk? low heat?), but she'd pick me up from pre-school and take me home and make me seriously the most incredible eggs ever ever. Scooby Do came on at 3, and I'd be in front of the TV, eating the best scrambled eggs ever with the most Beautiful Woman In The World. I had it pretty good.
When I was 10 I wanted to shave my legs, because my best friend Ronnie was shaving hers (I think she stole her sister's razor from the shower but I'm not entirely sure.) Class Picture Day was coming and I was not going to wear a dress with fuzzy legs. I was burning with fear, whisper-practicing my argument for why I should be allowed to shave my legs. Finally I sat down and trembled it out. She sat back and lit a cigarette– and was almost professional about it. Like I was about to be interviewed to shave my legs.
"How old are you?"
"I see. Hmm. Ok, let's think about it. I really don't see why not… but 10 is a bit young."
I was so sure she was going to shut me down. But she didn't. She treated my request with respect—I think she knew how nervous I was to ask.. It was never brought up again, so I just stole my whoever's razor was in the shower for Picture Day. She saw my awesomely smooth legs and never said a word about it.
Smart, gorgeous, and in those early days, a lot of fun. Thinking about the good times really helps. Sometimes, with family stuff, we get so deeply invested in our positions of being "right." Right about being mad, or resentful, or whatever thing it is we need to hold onto. Let me tell you how nice it is to let all of that go and just focus on the good for a while. She was a really good mom sometimes, and a beautiful person always.
Unabashedly love the people who matter in your life.

The impact of G-Force vibration while operating industrial equipment is not only a major source of wear and tear on machines, but it is the leading cause of operator injuries. One example is Whole Body Vibration (WBV). WBV can cause fatigue, back pain, and spinal damage, leading to increased worker compensation claims. But TyrFil was designed for operator safety so it transfers the lowest G-Force vibration of all tire flatproofing systems, significantly reducing WBV. G-forces can also cause instability when going over obstacles, which can also trigger costly accidents.
We tested tires filled with TyrFil against air-filled pneumatic and solid tires to gauge the shock absorption of each. Watch what happens!
Construction Foremen Request TyrFil on Rental Equipment for Improved Safety and Traction
Waste Transfer Station Saves $100,000 on Tire Expenses by Swapping Out Solid Aperture Tires for Tire Fill
There are a number of tire flatproofing systems, but why not choose the only one that offers improved performance, promotes safety and offers choice: Tyrfil?

Promotes Safety
Offers Choice
Additionally, TyrFil is the most cost-effective tire flatproofing system.
Last but not least, TyrFil is the only environmentally responsible choice.


text: Have you ever been in a fight? How did you get on? Did you get to use the expression "you shoulda seen the other guy/girl?" in the aftermath at any point. I hit this kid called Mark S_____ when we were 11, in the playground. I mean, I hit him in the face. Not like "the playground" is some boxing euphemism for the solar plexus or something. His nose made a sort of noise like Pop! and blood came out. It was terrifying. I sort of think it was more terrifying for me than it was for him. That's probably easy for me to say; I wasn't the one being hit in the face. He cried and ran off. But the sense of... consequence, I guess, was really overwhelming. As you can probably tell, I'm clearly not cut out for it.

You may have noticed over the last half year or so that our largely ghoulish media's mind-numbing obsession with lurid reportage from Iraq has ground to a jarring halt. Seriously, it's conspicuous by its absence. Well, the reason, of course, is because we've won. Despite considerable efforts of cynicism, spite, and sometimes downright hatred from parties at home and abroad, our outstanding troops have resoundingly defeated the barbaric child-killing jihadi menace, and have secured an entire nation. They've performed magnificently, with consummate professionalism and honor. This is what American troops have always done. To the disgraceful few who rooted against them, this is a painful fact, but to me, it's yet another opportunity to feel pride and to show appreciation for the people I look up to as heroes.
This warrants, at the very least, a day of recognition, don't you think?
