I know you all love hearing from me, but today, I'm going to do something a little different.
Before joining up with us, his biggest win was making 10X his starting capital over the course of February to September 2013.
Seeing those big gains led him to look for more courses that would help him become an even better trader, and that brought him to my You Tube channel HERE.
so that he could learn as much about me as he could before signing up (definitely a smart move I'd recommend to all of you reading this).
What he found was that the trading methods I teach here on Timothy are totally different from everything he'd done before in Sweden.
But because he was open to the new opportunities he found, Jonas has been able to find better and better trades thanks to my teachings.
He's also been able to open two new companies (on top of the construction company he already owns) and become a financially-secure father – all thanks to penny stocks.
Jonas had some great tips on how to get started if you're new to penny stocks, so I asked him to put together a basic guide to penny stocks.
You can download the whole thing at the link in the tweet below, or you can check out a summarized version below: Many have asked me about the amount of money you'll need to start with, and it all depends on the broker you use.
Tim's teachings are optimized for smaller and medium accounts, though, so you can start small like this and still grow your accounts several times over.
For best results, trade only the amount you have for real trading in your paper trading portfolio.
For example, let's say you have ,000 in your bank that you'll start to trade with later on. The stock would have to move up so that you will cover the cost of the commission alone.Tags: Adult Dating, affair dating, sex dating

Mind reader Colin Cloud redeemed himself during the Semifinals 2 episode of "America's Got Talent" on Sept. 12. Back in the Quarterfinals, Cloud caused controversy with a routine that saw Mel B "murder" rival judge Simon Cowell. This time around, he targeted all four judges in his mesmerizing routine. Watch Cloud's performance on "AGT" live show 5 above.
Cloud had asked his Twitter followers for the names of a celebrity, city or object. He printed these out and had Cowell and Howie Mandel pick out three of these, with Heidi Klum then choosing the tweets. The result was "Ellen Rome Cheese." He then revealed the elaborate way in which he knew these would be the three words highlighted. Turns out he had gone undercover.
All four judges were wowed by his act. Cowell wants him to pick out numbers to play in an upcoming lottery while Mandel declares he has never seen anything like this in his life. All four agree that America got it right when they put Cloud through to the final via the Dunkin' Save.
Do you think that Cloud will make it through to the Finals of "AGT" Season 12? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments section.

Courtesy of Nuffnang, i get to watch Tron : Legacy a day before it release to Malaysia together with YY :)
Presented in Disney Digital 3D™, Real D 3D and IMAX® 3D and scored by Grammy® Awardw inning electronic music duo Daft Punk, "TRON: Legacy" features cutting-edge, state-of-theart technology, effects and set design that bring to life an epic adventure coursing across a digital grid that is as fascinating and wondrous as it is beyond imagination. At the epicenter of the adventure is a father-son story that resonates as much on the Grid as it does in the real world: Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), a rebellious 27-year-old, is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father, Kevin Flynn (Oscar® and Golden Globe® winner Jeff Bridges), a man once known as the world's leading tech visionary. When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the old Flynn's Arcade-a signal that could only come from his father-he finds himself pulled into a digital grid where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years. With the help of the fearless warrior Quorra (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a life-or-death journey across a visually stunning digital landscape created by Kevin himself that has become far more advanced, with never-before-imagined vehicles, weapons, landscapes and a ruthless villain who will stop at nothing to prevent their escape.
I would say this is one of the best movie i watch for this year ;D. Beside the mind blowing light effect and graphic, the storyline and character development quite good and satisfying. To b honest i have no idea what is Tron. All i knew is it was a video game. Their bike (Light cycle), car and jet damn effing cool :D. Now i wan tat kind of bike! or mayb costume as well :D
Catch this movie in cinema now! It wun waste ur 2 hours time ;)..and i have high expectation in 3D as well.
Oh btw, watching Tron remind me of Kamen Rider Faiz! :D
i mean d costume of coz :P

The 1987 Sport Coupe uses a polypropylene skirt under the front of the car.
(I'm guessing at the specific plastic from the way it feels, and it's response to abrasion, and heat. At any rate it is a Thermo Forming plastic. I imagine it could be LDPE as well. [Low Density PolyEthylene.])
Two things happen to the skirt. It gets torn, or it deforms. A torn skirt is difficult to repair. I've yet to find an adhesive that is flexible enough to work on a polypropylene for any length of time. They are all either to stiff and crack apart with a good whack, or they just don't stick in the first place. My feeling is that only thermal, or ultrasonic, welding will hold a tear together like it wasn't there. (Solvent welding doesn't seem to work either.)
A deformed skirt on the other hand can be reworked with the CAREFULL application of heat. The trick it to heat an area without blistering, or melting it.
WARNING: Thermo Form plastics like polypropylene, and polyethylene can hold a tremendous amount of heat for a long time! DO NOT touch the area you where heating without good gloves! Do Not touch the front of the work or you may leave irreversible marks on it.
You MUST support the ENTIRE skirt while working on it. If you don't you could end up with a sudden collapse that will ruin the skirt completely.
You want to heat the area you need to form evenly, and most of the time from the BACK side of the work. (If you heat the front you'll make scuffs look worse.
Direct heat will open any scratches.) You can use a heat gun, or a propane torch with a big tip, and preferably a flame spreader. Work carefully and keep the heat source in constant motion. If you use a torch use a very low setting.
DO NOT use MAPP, Oxy/MAPP, Oxy/Propane, or any other metal welding/cutting torch.
Try practicing on the lids of some takeout soup containers. They have very close to the same properties as the skirt, even if they are thinner. (soup lids are LDPE, the containers are HDPE.)

چکیده انگلیسی
One of the critical activities for outsourcing success is outsourcing provider selection, which may be regarded as a type of fuzzy heterogeneous multiattribute decision making (MADM) problems with fuzzy truth degrees and incomplete weight information. The aim of this paper is to develop a new fuzzy linear programming method for solving such MADM problems. In this method, the decision maker's preferences are given through pair-wise alternatives' comparisons with fuzzy truth degrees, which are expressed with trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFNs). Real numbers, intervals, and TrFNs are used to express heterogeneous decision information. Giving the fuzzy positive and negative ideal solutions, we define TrFN-type fuzzy consistency and inconsistency indices based on the concept of the relative closeness degrees. The attribute weights are estimated through constructing a new fuzzy linear programming model, which is solved by using the developed fuzzy linear programming method with TrFNs. The relative closeness degrees of alternatives can be calculated to generate their ranking order. An example of the IT outsourcing provider selection problem is analyzed to demonstrate the implementation process and applicability of the method proposed in this paper.

Jr. Knights OHL Cup run ended
The London Jr. Knights' run at the OHL Cup is over.
The top-ranked team in Ontario AAA minor midget hockey bowed out in the semifinal round, 3-1 to the Mississauga Reps Saturday night.
It was the Alliance champs' first loss since Jan. 7. They won their opening five games of the tournament last week.
The Jr. Knights got on the board first on Liam Van Loon's third tally of the tournament. But the Reps responded with three second-period goals in just under 10 minutes, the first two by highly touted forward Jamieson Rees.
London fired 44 shots at Mississauga goalie Ryan Dugas, including a 16-3 edge in the third period, but couldn't find the back of the net. Van Loon also had a final-minute penalty shot denied by the red-hot netminder.
The Reps will face the Toronto Young Nationals in Monday's championship game.

I went to see The Spiderwick Chronicles last night after a long day of shopping with a friend. I read a couple of reviews on various blogs where the blogger did not like the movie at all, so I wasn't sure what to expect. While I really wanted to see this movie, I normally do not enjoy book adaptations very much. I was pleasantly surprised.
I read the books about four years ago, and while I loved the illustrations in the books and the general idea of the story, the books themselves did nothing for me. The narration wasn't enjoyable and there was no real character development. If I had been in the age group these books were aimed at, I would've loved them, but as an older reader reading them, they just didn't do anything for me. Since then, I've gone back and looked at the illustrations (because they are beautiful) but haven't reread them.
The first time I saw the trailer, I got so excited to see this movie. As I said, I loved the general idea of the story, so this seemed like it would work for me better as a movie than the books did. And in the end, I was right – I loved the movie. This is one of the very few times you're ever going to read me saying this – I did enjoy the movie so much more than the books.
It did have its flaws, the main one being that Freddie Highmore did not have a great American accent. But then again, he's still young, still learning, so he did well considering all that. It also took liberties with the book. What book adaptation doesn't? And considering the fact that they had to put five (albeit short) books into an hour and a half movie, it's not surprising.
But it had a lot of good points too. It was very funny. It could have been the fact that we were surrounded by a bunch of kids and their amusement was infectious, but there were other times when my friend and I were the only two in the theatre laughing. Mary-Louise Parker was wonderful as always, and Sarah Bolger was adorable. The fairies in the movie – well, they ran anywhere from being cute and lovely and gorgeous to slightly frightening. They looked so real most of the time that it was, at times, hard to remember that they weren't real.
This was definitely one of the most enjoyable movies that I've seen in theatres in a while, and I will definitely be buying it as soon as it comes out on DVD.

Ciao Guys,
I wanted to give you quick updates on some contests that you've all been asking about.
The Week!
There is a shortlist created by the client. We are very close to a selection. We've narrowed it down to 10 pieces and we are very close to a decision.
One thing that I'd like to stress is that whenever you upload a video to Zooppa.com, you absolutely must use original, footage, images and music. Or at least have a license to the rights.
Because we give out cash to winners and because the videos can be reused as commercials (please note that for Buick, the winning video was shown to thousands of people at a stadium) we need to make doubly sure that all of our videos are legally sound.
Once again we have a shortlist. However there were over 100 videos submitted to this contest. Have you seen them? They're all pretty good. Pretty darn good. It's hard to make a decision. The client also wants to announce the Early Entry Winner with everyone else.
Can anyone tell me what it was about the 3M contest that created so much interest? Was it the fact that it was about couples? Some people in the office think it's because of the age old conflict that couples have. I have to agree. Husband and wife conflicts are easy to come up with and understand.
Well hope you all can rest easy. We can do it!
Take it easy,

Rencher Law Group, P.C. Attorneys and Counselors at law specialize in assisting
good people after bad things have happened. The law allows for an injured
person sue for a civil wrong and obtain damages for losses as a result
of someone's negligence. While the purpose of the personal injury
system is to allow the injured persons to be compensated or "made
whole" after he or she has suffered harm due to another's negligence
or intentional conduct insurance companies attempt to prevent you from
obtaining the recovery you deserve.
However, at Rencher Law Group. P.C. we wont just send a demand without
adequate settlement instead we will file suit to ensure that you are "made
whole" and not short changed by an insurance company's skewed
value of your personal injury claim.
Accidents/Negligence. Personal injury matters where someone acted in a negligent manner, and
that carelessness caused harm to another person. Examples include car
accidents, slip and fall incidents, and medical malpractice, are among
other types of cases.
Intentional Acts. Personal injury matters where a defendant's intentional conduct causes
harm to another person. Examples include assault and battery, and other
intentional torts.
Defamation. Personal injury laws apply when one person's defamatory statement
causes harm to another person's reputation. Examples include publishing
untrue and harmful material on the internet.
Plaintiff Determines that Defendant Breached a Legal Duty. The specific legal duty depends on the situation in which the injury occurred.
For example, drivers have a duty to operate their vehicles with the level
of care that any reasonable person would exhibit while on the road. Doctors
have a duty to provide medical care with a level of competence that a
reasonably skilled health care professional would use under similar circumstances.
Rencher Law Group, P.C. Attorneys and Counselors at Law handle personal
injury matters in a variety of ways, among them are:
Claim to Insurance Company. In cases where it is clear that defendant breached a legal duty, then the
defendant (or the insurance company representing him or her) may wish
to resolve the claim prior to filing suit. This typically involves filing
a claim with the defendant's insurance company which includes an analysis
of liability, damages and demand for compensation. The insurer then typically
makes an offer of monetary compensation to the injured person, in exchange
for the injured person's binding promise not to file a lawsuit over
the injury. Here, at Rencher Law Group, P.C.
If a plaintiff agrees to a settlement, the case ends. If not, the plaintiff
may go to court and file a personal injury lawsuit. Settlement negotiations
can continue even after a lawsuit is filed but typically after the defense
has conducted "discovery" including reviewing medical records,
deposing plaintiff and witnesses. The case may also settle short of trial
in some for dispute resolution typically mediation. Thus, settlement can
be reached at any time prior to the civil case being given to a jury.
Filing a Suit to Effectuate Your Rights at Law. While the majory of cases resolve before trial they sometimes require suit
to effectuate rights at law. In cases where it is clear that defendant
breached a legal duty, and his or (his insurance company) refuses to "make
you whole" a lawsuit is required.
This typically involves filing a lawsuit in the jurisdication where the
incident occured and condudting discovery to show just how negligent the
other side was and demonstrate your damages. Thereafter, the lawsuit typically
proceeds to settlement discussions and/or trial if the insurance company
and/or defendant refused to pay the value of your case. Rencher Law Group,
P.C. wont accept "low ball" offers and stand ready to try your matter.
Rencher Law Group, P.C. Attorneys and Counselors at Law recommends including
the following if you have been injured by the negligence:
Preserve Evidence
Immediately following an accident is the most important for finding and
preserving evidence of what happened -- and for documenting your injuries.
Even though you may be in injured and in pain it is important to do your
best to document pertinent as much pertinent information concerning the
incident as possible.
Physical Evidence
Liability of who is at "fault" for an accident can be shown through
variuous forms of evidence including "physical evidence" --
physical evidence is usually something that is taken directly from the
scene. It is tangible evidence something that you can see or touch as
opposed to a description of what happened. Examples include tire marks
on the road, impact marks or dents on a vehicle, broken glass, a weapon
and/or a physical obstruction which may have constributed to an accident.
Physical evidence from motor vehicle accidents are key in demontrating
the severity of impact and collision, and torn and/or bloody clothing
can be instrumental in demsontring the severity of the physical injuries
Evidence that is not preserved or photographed shortly after the accident
often gets lost, destroyed, altered by time, the elements and in some
cases can be reparied. Accordingly, it is important to perserve any physical
evidence related to your personal injury including your damaged car or
bike, clothing in teh same condition it was immediately followling the accident.
Police Reports in Car Accident Cases
After any moderate or serious car accident especially involving injuries,
it's essential to report the incident to the police. The police will
conduct an accident investigation to to determine liability and the cause
of the accident which can be invaluable to pre-litigaiton settlement discussions
notwithstanding the fact that the report is usually inadmissible in court.
Take Photographs
If there is little or no physical evidence or for any reason cannot preserve
it, the next best option is to photograph it. Photographs including through
your cell phone can be invaluable to your personal injury claim. Photographs
typically provide an accurate depiction of the scene including position
of the vehicles, weather, lighting, traffic conditions, obstructions from
varous vantage points. These days, it also possible to shoot a video of
the inident with most modern cell phones.
You want take a a number of photos from different angles so that you can
later pick out the ones that most clearly show whatever it is you want
to highlight to support your personal injury. You also want to take them
as soon as possible so that they will accurately represent the condition
of the evidence immediately after the accident. To establish authencity
of the photos, have a someone watch you take the photos and write a short
note confirming the date and time they were taken.
Return to the Scene
If an accident occurred somewhere other than in your home, return to the
scene as soon as possible to locate any evidence and photograph any conditions
you believe may have caused or contributed to the accident. You may be
amazed to find something that you were not aware of when the accident
occurred but that may help explain what happened: a worn or torn spot
on which you fell, a traffic light that isn't working. While looking
around, you may also find witnesses who saw what happened or who know
of other accidents that happened in the same spot.
Take photographs of the accident scene from a number of different angles
including the your view of things right before the accident. You also
want to photograph the scene at the same time of day as your accident.
For vehicle accidents, photograph the scene on the same day of the week
to show the similar traffic conditions.
Take Notes and Evidence of Your Injuries
Photographs of your injuries establish the extent of your damages. Detailed
photos of bruising and lacerations help to tell the story of your pain.
Without question though, medical records are the key to establishing the
extent of your injuries and subsequently, the amount of compensation you
should demand. In addition, the type of medical treatment you get is important
including weather you were taken away from the scene by ambulance or sought
medical treatment immediately after the accident. You can also be assured
that a defendant in your case is going to request your medical records.
For this reason, it's critical to seek immediate treatment for your
medical injureis and follow any treatment recommendations - especially
referrals to other specialists.
If you have been injured, you should contact a reputable attorney with
experience in personal injury law.

TSML Engineering, a division of Tuwairqi Steel Mills, which operates under the renowned Saudi Group, Al-Tuwairqi Holdings (ATH), has signed a sole distributorship contract with SolarWorld, AG, according to a statement on Saturday.
"This contract makes TSMLE an exclusive distributor of SolarWorld's Photovoltaic Modules in Pakistan," it said. In the presence of Horst Roeslor, consultant to the board, Pakistan German Business Forum and Hans Juergen Paschke, consul and deputy head of mission, Consulate General of Germany, the contract was signed by Asad Malik and Kai Klingenhagen. Zaigham Adil Rizvi, director (Projects) of TSML was also present on the occasion.
SolarWorld AG is one of the biggest manufacturers of solar modules and solar power systems worldwide and contributes to a cleaner energy supply across the world.
The company employs approximately 3,000 people and carries out production in Freiberg, Germany, and Hillsboro, US. SolarWorld Asia Pacific, based in Singapore, is the regional office of the SolarWorld group for Pakistan, it added.
All Pakistan Textile Mills Association (APTMA) and the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) have strongly protested suspension of electricity in Punjab with the APTMA threatens to take workers to streets if power situation is not restored within a week, according to a statement on Saturday.
Addressing a press conference after an emergent general body meeting of APTMA, Shahzad Ali Khan, chairman of APTMA Punjab Chapter, said that he was shocked by the abrupt and threatening power shut down by the Lahore Electric Supply Company on Friday that continued today, as well.
The Lahore region was already facing gas suspension for three days and the power cut brought the entire industrial sector to a halt.
"We tolerated six hours power outages in Punjab since May because there is genuine power shortage as against the supply of 15,000MW the demand was over 17,000MW," he said, adding that with dependable power production capacity of 14,000MW, Pakistan Electric Power Company (PEPCO) is producing only 11,000MW.
"This is not tolerable," he said, and threatened to take extreme measures if power supply is not restored within a week.
Khan said till now the industry has retained the workforce, despite closures due to electricity outages. "We are not in a position to continue paying our workers, while our industries remain closed," he said, and warned that it would be nightmare for the federal government if 1.5 million workers agitated on the streets.
"The situation would be worse than what the government is facing in Karachi," he said, adding that the textile workers in the age group of 18-25 years and drawing Rs9,000 per month would go out of control if they are deprived of even this meager income. The APTMA central chairman wondered as to why the Punjab industries are being targeted.
Gohar Ejaz, group leader of APTMA, said that the power crisis is due to the incompetence of the ministry of water and power. "There is gas shortage, as well in Punjab but Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) has taken the industry into confidence and provided gas in the best possible way, keeping the interests of all consumers in mind," he added.
Farooq Iftikhar, president of the LCCI, feared a surge in unemployment graph and crime rate in case of complete closure of steel mills that employ millions of workers.
The business community is foreseeing some betterment in the electricity supply after the assurance of the secretary water and power during her visit to Lahore a few days back but unfortunately the electricity situation has further aggravated. No schedule of restoration of power has been spelled out by Lesco, he said.
Iftikhar said that at a time when furnaces and re-rolling mills have already laid off workers and are operating with the skeleton staff because of non-supply of gas, the sudden suspension of electricity has sent a wave of shock to the workers and owners alike.
"How would the government be able to control crimes when a large number of people would be without jobs due to thoughtless decisions," he wondered.
He said that it would have been wiser on the part of the government, if it had devised some foolproof strategy to stop power and gas pilferages that is one of the major causes of the shortage of these utilities.
Speakers at the Jang Forum have unanimously attributed inappropriate policies of the present and past governments as the prime reason behind the gas and energy shortages in the country.
Haroon Rashid, vice president of the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI), said that the industry, which is the main employment generator, is the worst hit by gas shortage, particularly the fertiliser industry.
He categorically said that transport must be the least priority for gas allocation, as they have alternative fuels available.
Rashid said that the regulators have been pursuing corrupt practices, resulting in mushroom growth of compressed natural gas (CNG) filling stations and now there is no gas for them.
Zahid Hussain, former managing director of Oil and Gas Development Company Limited (OGDCL), said that the cumulative unaccounted for gas (UFG) of Sui Southern Gas Company (SSGC) and Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL) accounted for 20 percent as against the international standard of four percent.
"The UFG is out of control and always increasing. If it is contained to eight percent of both networks, the requirement of the CNG sector could be met easily," he said.
Hussain said that the CNG sector has invested a huge amount of money and they should not be targeted, adding that the government should look for alternative gas supply resources, including imports.
Samir Gulzar, chairman of All Pakistan CNG Association (APCNGA) Sindh, said that it is no more feasible for them to carry on their business after the decision of the Supreme Court reducing CNG prices by Rs30 per kilogram.
He said that in addition to the announced gas outages, the gas utility did not provide enough pressure due to which the processing time of their compressors has increased and they are unable to serve more vehicles.
Gulzar said that they have suggested the authorities and the regulator to process the "flare gas", ie, high sulfur and moist gas and provide it to the CNG sector. He said that 75mmcfd of flare gas is being burnt every day.
They have also suggested to process and transport in containers gas from dormant wells but their suggestions were rejected, he said.
Gulzar was highly critical of Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC), which, according to him, is killing gas in its inefficient plants.
Haji Mohammad Tawab of Transport Ittehad said that they are left with no other option but to close their business.

Pakistan is presently facing a major problem with respect to power crisis. But this can be managed by exploiting our indigenous resources, i.e. natural resources like solar, wind, hydro and involving our energetic public. The solution would be long-lasting and sustainable because it will be based on our own resources unlike the power and gas supplies from other regional countries, such as from Central Asia or Iran.
The major component of Pakistan`s power demand is satisfied by fossil fuel, much of which is imported and therefore, by definition, is insecure. Therefore, in order to secure its energy, Pakistan must limit its use of fossil fuels to those it can produce within its boundaries, satisfy the balance of its consumption by either minimising its total demand, or maximising its generation from renewables, or both.
While global warming is the top reason to reduce or eliminate our dependence on fossil fuels, there are three other distinct reasons why we need to do that. Firstly, there is the fact that fossil fuels will run out, and therefore we will have to get our energy from elsewhere at some stage, although there are various estimates as to when this might be.
Secondly, Pakistan has significantly less fossil fuel within its boundaries than it consumes, and most of what it has got is coal. Therefore, Pakistan is compelled to import large quantities of fossil fuel. This situation is sustainable so long as other countries wish to sell us their fossil fuels. The fact that they can refuse to sell it to us means that Pakistan has an insecure supply of energy.
And thirdly, if Pakistan switches from fossil fuel imports to renewables, the balance of payments will be improved, and jobs will be created. This makes it a strong economic argument for going green.
Pakistan is ideally located in a tropical region and most of the area receives year-round strong solar irradiance (approximately 800 W/m2). If we cannot find ways to exploit it, it may be our unwillingness or incompetence. Present-day technology has made it possible for us to quite efficiently (at about 30 per cent) convert this sunshine into electricity, to power most of our appliances.
Given the fact that Pakistan`s economy—mainly based on agriculture—is being highly affected by the present energy crisis, immediate measures must be taken to address the issue. Directly coupled DC water pumps with solar panels have been very successful and economical for irrigation purpose. A small-scale solar water-pump, for instance, would discharge about 100,000 litres from a depth of about 100 feet on a typical day in Pakistan. This is a far better choice, when compared with diesel generators or even with grid power, which is not available in many areas anyway.
Pakistan can quickly overcome the present shortfall of about five GW of power if people go for microgeneration from renewable energy (RE) resources. This would engage common people in contributing towards a national cause of power shortage and a global cause of reducing carbon emission and therefore the change in weather patterns. Throughout the world, the microgeneration from RE resources has been encouraged in the masses, and various governments have introduced incentive legislation, including feed-in tariff (FiT) or net-metering. Broadly, the FiT has to take care of the energy payments to the power producers. In many advanced countries, this was not for the power shortage but was meant for replacing fossil-fuel power with green energy. However, for countries like Pakistan it can serve both purposes.
One important limiting factor in the case of all forms of renewable energy options (solar, wind, hydro and biofuels) is the requirement of large area for the deployment of their generators as compared with fossil-fuel powered generators. Fortunately, in Pakistan, while this may be a limiting factor in the cities, it creates no issues for most of non-urban Pakistan.
Another drawback in RE power is the fact that wind and solar resources are intermittent and non-dispatchable. So there should be a grid in place to integrate the generation as well as the power consumption, i.e., for demand and supply. The energy storage is also a setback and is still quite costly and inefficient for batteries to be used for the purpose.
However, hydropower can be used to store energy, which is very useful when significant wind or solar power is being exploited. Any energy strategy should, therefore, aim to maximise generation from this resource. In Pakistan, hydropower could be used in the night time while solar power during the day. The new plans would ideally be of run-of-river type, which do not need reservoirs and dams and all the associated ills.
The conservation measures both at the supply and demand could lead to a sustainable solution, regardless of the type of power generation. On the supply front, heat loss, transmission and distribution losses, including theft, should be reduced. The demand front includes the use of energy-efficient appliances as well as conserving energy at peak hours.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is planning a visit to Pakistan soon, said Consul General of the Russian Federation, Andrey V. Demidov. He further said that Russia could help Pakistan address its energy crisis as it ranks high in energy solutions, according to a press statement on Wednesday.
Putin's visit will mark the signing of various memorandums of understanding and cooperation documents between the two countries."Russia is ready to help Pakistan out of the energy crisis, as it is the number one country in the energy sector across the world," said Demidov while addressing members of Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI).
He said there were good prospects for Pak-Russia Preferential Trade Agreement (PTA) and the Russian Mission could prepare a feasibility study on PTA as deliberations were required on certain legalities, according to the KCCI statement.
"Pakistan can export potato, rice, vegetables and fruits to Russia. Further, there is great demand for Pakistani natural pharmaceutical products in Russia. Pakistan can also be provided Russian-made helicopters and commercial jets," he said.
"Non-availability of direct shipping-lines, airlines and a banking channel are major obstacles impeding bilateral trade," said Demidov.To execute transit trade from Gwadar Port, adequate infrastructure, railways, highways and bridges were essential, he said. Moreover, Pakistani students would continue to benefit from Russian scholarships programmes, he said.
KCCI President, Haroon Agar, said there is a dire need for Pakistan-Russian inter-governmental arrangements to develop direct shipping and air-links and to establish banking channels to multiply bilateral trade. Recalling Pak-Russian cooperation in the past, he said there was need to enhance cooperation in the areas of heavy machinery, engineering, automobiles, revamping railways, energy from coal, corporate farming, mining, health, education and other areas of national interest.
"Pakistan could seek the Russian help to integrate and boost its energy and engineering sector with technologies transfer," said Agar.There could be a big share for the Russian Federation in the mining and manufacturing of coal-based power generation, particularly in Thar Coal, he said.
Russia is the third largest textiles importing country of the world after USA and EU. Given that Pakistan is the third largest textile exporting country, there is great potential exist for the Pakistani textiles industry and its products to be exported to Russia. With the multilateral cooperation of Central Asian Republics, Russian trade can be facilitated from the ports of Pakistan to other countries of the globe. "KCCI is considering creating a high-level business delegation to Russia," said Agar.
Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC) has signed two additional strategic contracts with international vendors, for its generation fleet, according to a statement on Tuesday.
These service agreements are aimed at augmenting the generation capacity and enhancing the efficiency of KESC's Combined Cycle Power Plant at Korangi. The agreement also ensures the provision of OEM maintenance spares for its plants in SITE and Korangi, it said.
KESC has signed a contract for the efficiency and capacity improvement project, with the Slovakian-based Istroenergo Group (IEG), which is well known for providing worldwide professional, technical and scientific services in the field of power generation.
According to contract details, KESC will convert two open cycle gas turbines at its CCPP-II Korangi into combined cycle operation, it said. IEG is the same company, which had earlier designed the Phase-I of engineering, procurement and construction work of this power plant and would now execute the current, strategically important closing cycle project at a cost of Rs4 billion in a period of 18 months, according to the statement.
The project would add 27MW generation capacity to the Combined Cycle Power Plant at Korangi; enhancing its total capacity from 220MW to 247MW and, at the same time, increase the complex efficiency from 42 percent to 45 percent. Simultaneously, KESC has also signed a five-year maintenance spares supply agreement (MSA) with OES General Electric Jenbacher for its GEJB gas engines plants at Korangi and SITE areas.
KESC has made strategic investment to secure these agreements with the core objective to increase efficiencies and availability of its generation fleet, it added.
While the cost of the Diamer-Bhasha dam project has risen from $11.8 billion to $13.6 billion because of the inordinate delay in securing funding, a senior official in the finance ministry says that the project is no longer the government's top priority.
"The government was earlier pitching the Bhasha Dam as its top priority project before the IFIs, donor agencies and development partners and refusing credit lines being extended for other projects because of the dam's potential to produce cheaper hydel power and its huge capacity for water storage," said the official.
The World Bank had earlier offered a credit line of $5 billion for the Dasu hydropower project but the government asked for the funds to be diverted to Diamer-Bhasha instead. "But the World Bank reiterated its stance that it could not give funds for the Bhasha Dam as it was to be situated in disputed territory," said the official. "It also said that in order to receive funding for the project, Pakistan would require an NoC from India."
"Meanwhile, since the Asian Development Fund had also made its funding contingent on sizeable funding from the World Bank or other donors, they also refused to pay for Diamer-Bhasha," said the official. "Now, the ADB says it may be willing to fund the project but only after strict implementation of reforms in the power sector."
Consequently, said the official, top functionaries in finance, the economic affairs division and the Ministry of Water and Power have been forced to admit that beggars can't be choosers. "Now the government has decided to initiate the project that gets credit lines from donors."
Accordingly, at a recently held meeting of the Senate Committee on Water and Power, Additional Secretary Ministry of Water and Power Naimatullah Khan said that the government was ready to initiate the 4,320MW Dasu project for which the World Bank is ready to pay $500 million upfront.
However, at the time, Khan had insisted that the decision did not imply that Diamer-Bhasha was no longer a priority.
"We are still pitching the Bhasha Dam as a priority project before donor agencies and the EAD is in touch with the Asian Development Fund but the project for which funding is available will be started first so that the country's hydel power generation capacity can be enhanced," he had said.
The Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC) and Aman Foundation in pursuance of their combined efforts to establish green energy projects have taken a lead role in setting up a renewable energy venture 'Karachi Organic Energy Ltd'. KOEL, a joint venture between KESC and Aman Foundation, is potentially the largest bio-waste to energy power plant of its kind, located in the Landhi Cattle Colony of Karachi. Other local and foreign entities including technology providers, HimarkBioGas.Com and even General Electric Company (GE) have shown interest in investing in this project.In a major development marking this project, the International Finance Corporation (IFC) signed a 'Cooperation Agreement' with KOEL on November 12, in a ceremony held at the Governor House. This agreement is a significant milestone for KOEL as well as for IFC, since this will be the first initiative for IFC's advisory services project in the Middle East and North Africa. Under the terms of this agreement, IFC will provide project management support to steer the overall project development activities and provide financial support on a number of specific work packages and value-added activities, including feedstock survey and logistical planning, supply chain development, rollout of many socio-economic initiatives and evaluating carbon / concessional finance options. At the signing ceremony Tabish Gauhar, CEO KESC said; "There is tremendous potential in this bio-gas project, since its footprint extends beyond power generation, by having a positive outreach for the community and importantly for the environment. At the occasion Ahsan Jamil CEO Aman Foundation said; "Aman's mandate to make transformative community impact in Karachi and Pakistan, is only further enhanced by this venture. We firmly believe that sustainability in all its forms delivers to our core purpose – to transform ordinary lives."Speaking at the ceremony, Sindh Governor Dr Ishratul Ebad said, "This green energy project spearheaded by KESC, Aman and partnered by IFC, marks the first step towards a new era of clean energy in Pakistan. Such ventures, which contribute towards reducing the energy crunch in an eco-friendly manner while paying back to the community, can prove to be a paradigm shift in the energy equation of our country."The KOEL will be utilising biodegradable waste from the Landhi Cattle Colony and organic food waste from the city to produce 22MW of electricity and 100,000 tons per annum of organic fertilizer. This is the first time in Pakistan in which this source of renewable energy will be utilized at a large scale and is expected to serve as a model to be replicated across the country.
IFC, a member of the World Bank Group is advising a Pakistan-based biogas company on the development of a waste-to-energy plant in Landhi, Karachi turning a serious environmental problem into a renewable energy resource.
The plant to be built by Karachi Organic Energy (KOEL) will convert cow manure into electricity while producing organic fertilizer as a byproduct. IFC will provide KOEL-a joint venture between Karachi Electric Supply Company Limited (KESC) and the Amman Foundation with advice on project development and financing.
When completed, it will generate up to 22 megawatts of power from animal waste that was currently being discharged directly into the sea. There is tremendous potential in this biogas project, said Tabish Gauhar, CEO of KESC. Its footprint extends beyond power generation. It will have a positive effect on the community and importantly on the environment. The plant will be the largest biogas project in the country and it is expected to serve as a model for future developments. staff report

Smaller companies were traditionally using data backup appliances, according to Eric Slack on TechTarget, but the tools are now ready for the spotlight with much larger enterprises. With continued improvement to the technology, this backup option can be now be used by businesses of any size.
"Backup appliances were used as alternatives to traditional backup infrastructures, which typically included a separate software app and storage devices, originally tape drives but more recently disk arrays," Slack said. "Backup appliances were primarily intended for smaller firms that didn't have the IT resources to design, implement and operate traditional backup systems, which could get rather complex."
With the new developments, this solution can be used by larger organizations. Advantages of this backup modality include the absence of platform compatibility issues, but there will be more difficult upgrades when space runs out. Users may want to use appliance backup in concert with online data backup to account for space issues.
PCWorld said storage requirements for any data backup solution must be anticipated well in advance, as backing up multiple servers and computers can get very complex for businesses who have not prepared correctly.

Eosinophilic stomatitis and eosoniphilic granuloma are common names associated with raised ulcerative oral lesions in dogs mainly associated with the palate and occassionally the tongue. The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is particularly susceptable. Antigenic stimulation is thought to be the cause however often specific etiology cannot be determined. This Cavalier had both eosinophilic stomatitis and CUPS. The CUPS appeared to be the painful component in this patient and is a consistent component of most if not all cases of CUPS. Eliminating the plaque with strict home care including brushing daily, and water additives to reduce plaque (Healthy Mouth) along with frequent prophy's in the hospital (generally every 3 months) is the only safe treatment for CUPS. Immunosuppressive therapy is an alternative but potentially dangerous approach to therapy. Extracting the teeth adjacent to the lesions is the only definitive curative therapy.
Biopsy is indicated to confirm eosinophilic stomatitis. Treatment involves corticosteroids or cyclosporin and some have advocated hypoallergenic foods. Some patients do not respond to any of the above recommendations. A determination must be made to assess patient pain. Some of these patients appear not to be painful, however careful evaluation is needed to determine oral pain for this condition in dogs. Palpation under light sedation may reveal jaw chattering.

Heceta Head Lightstation Bed & Breakfast
There are plenty of B&B's out there…but how many of them are in a working lighthouse?! The Heceta Head Lighthouse was built in 1894, and is still in operation to this day! The 205-foot-tall lighthouse casts the brightest light on the Oregon Coast and can be seen from 21 miles out to sea! The lighthouse and lightkeeper's house are both listed on the National Register of Historic Places, but the cite was opened up for visitors to stay in 1995. The resort has only six rooms available (with a maximum of 15 guests at a time), so if you are looking for a quiet, but adventurous getaway, make reservations early. Bonus: guests are treated to a seven course breakfast!

Why? Why? Why?
The high recognition value, you stand out from the crowd of your competitors, while increasing consumer acceptance of your customers. The concept of premium items and the main product should fit together. Children will enjoy, shopping is an experience, instincts are controlled, surprise, children eat products with added references rather, exchange opportunities and collecting fun, positive image character.
We speak to one of the original form of human life. Games were there always in all cultures, even in the animal world. Play serves our species conservation. It provides a natural balance between body and mind. And our recreation can also serve self-education. Explore and test boundaries.
For some it is very motivating a game to win and for others, the plot is important to be able to react off of experiences. The Brockhaus says that gambling is an activity that is done for the joy of it, in contrast to the dedicated work. Apparently, Aristotle and Plato have co-written at the Brockhaus because they found that the game is the recovery of mental effort and thus the work is beneficial!
Each person collects something. Often he is not aware of this. The cultural history shows us that mankind has followed a development from hunters to gatherers. Thus was the man who first wandering hunter who will only settle down with his collector of naturals. Those who had accumulated so many different tools and weapons was in advantage. Today we see it more the other way around. Man collects and then becoming a wild hunter for rare and special objects.
Why the use of premium items? In economically difficult times polarized the decision whether an item is added or not. One side chooses because of falling sales and profits decreased. Alternatively, are often driven price action to short-term sales boost. The price level is raised again after 2 weeks, there is a risk that the consumer perceives this as a negative change in its price sentiment.
Other customers choose exactly in times like these to enhance their products with a premium. A giveaway is "nice to have ". It disappears after a campaign again, price and brand essence of the affected product remain unchanged. At this moment we are talking about a VALUE!
Basically, we describe the use of premiums as "sympathy marketing". Our clients want to make their consumers happy!

Penetration Test – Network Penetration Testing
The primary objective for a network penetration test is to identify exploitable vulnerabilities in networks, systems, hosts and network devices (ie: routers, switches) before hackers are able to discover and exploit them. Network penetration testing will reveal real-world opportunities for hackers to be able to compromise systems and networks in such a way that allows for unauthorized access to sensitive data or even take-over systems for malicious/non-business purposes.
Our penetration testing methodology includes an attack simulation carried out by our highly trained security consultants in an effort to:
- Identify security flaws present in the environment
- Understand the level of risk for your organization
- Help address and fix identified network security flaws
RedTeam Security network penetration testers have had experience supporting network, systems and hosts —not just trying to break them. They leverage this experience to zero in on critical issues and provide actionable remediation guidance.
As a result of our penetration tests, you'll be able to view your systems through the eyes of both a hacker and an experienced network security professional to discover where you can improve your security posture. Our consultants produce findings in written reports and provide your team with the guidance necessary to effectively remediate any issues we uncover.
Our Penetration Testing, Social Engineering and Red Teaming services go beyond the checkbox to help prevent data breaches

Shouldn't be a problem. I don't have a working i3 env at the moment, but how about, for example:

text: The beaches in the town of St. Albans on Lake Champlain are closed even though the weather is beautiful. The reason for the closing is the thriving algae blooms that have overtaken the shores. The blue-green algae is potentially toxic to humans and pets, so the town officials are forced to close the beaches every summer. The algae blooms flourish in certain conditions, which are usually in August when both the air and the water are warmer. When temperatures cool, the algae begins to disperse and the beaches are once again open to the public…. [Read More]

|— Madison to Callie in memory
Cryokinesis is the ability to control, produce, and manipulate ice and cold. This power is usually used to freeze a person or a body part by stopping the movement of molecules so that they lose energy, which causes them to be drawn close together by the attractive forces between the molecules. This is an extreme form of molecular immobilization and an advancement of hydrokinesis.
Strength, Control, and SkillEdit
When Amelia got this power, at first, she was having problems with it because she was throwing ice and making a vicinity crystallize or very cold. However, with more practice she was able to freeze people's bodies and as she practiced even more, she selectively froze a part of their body like a hand. With this power, it makes it even easier to kill people who are alive if you get the chance to freeze them and then break them apart.
Ways to Use PowerEdit
Selective Body FreezingEdit
This technique makes the target suffer tremendously as you can freeze some parts of their bdoy and they'll feel it. Amelia tortured Lia by freezing her ribcage and some of her bones. Lia was in great pain and cried out loudly. Also, you can also control the speed of how much the freezing of the body goes. Amelia did this once and the target felt even more pain as more body parts were freezing at once and he was feeling all of it.
Smashing BodiesEdit
This is probably the best way to kill someone with this power and is very effective. First, you have to freeze the whole person's body and then they'll be like ice. With some force, you can smash them to bits and they'll be dead. Sometimes you don't even have to smash them. With much concentration, you can freeze them so much that their molecules come together, squeezing extremely close and then, they break into pieces.
- Someone melts a person's body when the person is body.
- The person is invincible or have immunity and can easily break through the capsulation of ice or it has no effect on them at all.
- If used on a Phoenix Bird, they will start to melt immediately because of their life essence of fire.

In this Skype interview between Huey Johnson and environmental attorney, Scott Reed from Coeur d'Alene Idaho, they discuss an urgent land conservation project that brought them together when Huey was the Western Regional Director of the Nature Conservancy. Scott and Huey also talk about adjudication of the Snake River, a process that went on for 20 years. The state later decided to adjudicate water in north Idaho as well. Scott is well known for his work in water resources and especially for establishing minimum flows for fish in north Idaho.
Scott Reed is a special kind of attorney, civil and respectful on either side of the table. He was educated at Princeton and Stanford and has been recognized by his peers from the Idaho State Bar with the Distinguished Lawyer Award. Early in his career after graduating from Stanford, Scott began a practice in water law because he loved the outdoors so much. He later moved to Coeur d'Alene Idaho where he set up a practice in environmental and land use law and has worked on water adjudication in Idaho.
Scott has been a civic pillar in the town of Coeur d'Alene and has served on numerous boards, including the Board of Trustees of North Idaho College, the Coeur d'Alene Planning Commission, the Idaho Water Resources Board, the National Audubon Society, the North Dakota Wetlands Trust, the Idaho Nature Conservancy, the Coeur d'Alene Library Board, the Western Environmental Law Center, and the Idaho Legal History Society.
The effort to preserve and protect the historic Tubbs Hills area of Coeur d'Alene was successful and became a large park located within walking distance to Coeur d'Alene. Scott wrote a book about it called "The Treasure Called Tubbs Hill."
Mr. Reed has received numerous awards and recognition for his work, including the American Motors Corporation Conservation Award, Rocky Mountain Center on Environment Award, He also shares several awards with his wife, Mary Lou, including Conservationist of the Year (1971) (1984) and in the Idaho Rivers United Idaho Legacy Award in 2010.
Huey Johnson: Scott first came to my attention when he appealed to Washington to the then organization I worked for that they desperately needed to have a piece of land saved that day if possible. It was going to be developed by – scraped up by bulldozers and ruin the wilderness if it wasn't. And he was so appealing I found myself on an airplane going from Washington out there to work on it. His work, pioneering work for that matter on water policy in the state of Idaho is remarkable too. He particularly worked on instream flow and other issues and was progressive well beyond others in other places during this era.
Huey Johnson: Scott Reed, a wonderful friend who has carried on in splendid isolation of northern Idaho's panhandle on environmental ethics as an attorney for many years. So Scott, from a state where there are three false water claims for every honest one, good morning.
Scott Reed: Good morning.
Huey Johnson: In your work with water, I was surprised in conversation with you some years ago, you described how there was adjudication going on, on the Snake River at that time. Adjudication is kind of the legal process of proving ownership of a water claim and I believe the Snake River, there was a judge who was assigned to do this, or judges, and they would take a mile or 5 miles and let everybody know in the newspaper that you had to turn in your claims or they wouldn't exist anymore. Is that right as a definition?
Scott Reed: That's correct.
Huey Johnson: Yeah, so they got just a little ways down the river and the river was dry because of all the claims.
Scott Reed: Yeah, the adjudication went on for 20 years. The intriguing thing, Huey, is that about 3 or 4 years ago, why the water board decided, well, we should do it up in North Idaho. So they announced they were going to have an adjudication and people up here got upset because the damn state was going to interfere with our water, what do we have to go through that process for? And I spent some time and with others, but more of it trying to explain that really this protects your water, it doesn't take it away from you. Part of what we managed to do when we were on the water board and revised the plan, we managed to set up the possibility for instream flow adjudication then and protecting free flowing water that was already used for other purposes. So it started off in great controversy but ended up pretty well, and I think they're now probably well in excess of 100 or 200 claims of the public–the Fish and Game or something like that, of water.
Scott Reed: We came up with the idea that why don't we establish minimum flows in the rivers up in north Idaho? And the Director of Water Administration, R. Keith Higginson said "I can't imagine how you could really be out of water up there," but, he said, "I don't know what's going to happen in 50 years, go ahead." They ended up not getting it through the legislature but getting it through actual claims made by the water board on every stream that's north of the Salmon River as it flows into Washington. There's a minimum flow established.
Huey Johnson: Well the fact that you established required flow in the Salmon as it goes into the Snake, is that it?
Scott Reed: Yeah, the Salmon and the varieties of the Columbia, all the tributaries up there, the Spokane River, the Priest River.
Huey Johnson: Those rivers are large and beautiful and historic to any observer of this in the future, so this wasn't a light undertaking to accomplish that. I remember meeting you on a wonderful day when I believe you called the Nature Conservancy and you had a big land problem, and I ended up going up there. The Nature Conservancy had not at that time to my knowledge been acquiring any land for government, or certainly federal government. And as I recall, this was on the thoroughfare between your community and a lovely lake called Upper Priest Lake to the north.
Scott Reed: A private developer was going to cut the whole thing up. And in those days, R. had good connections but it was an instant call to [Senator] Frank Church to do something or other and the next call was to Huey Johnson to help us do something, and we ended up with a rather astonishing, quick effort.
Huey Johnson: And we were lucky enough to stir up the money and get it tied down and get it saved.
Scott Reed: Well, Nature Conservancy was a big part of that.
Huey Johnson: That started a whole new direction. The Upper Priest Lake thing became a major policy theme for the Conservancy and the growth direction it's sustained ever since, I guess.
Scott Reed: You never do things alone.
Huey Johnson: No, that's…-
Scott Reed: It wasn't me or you who did this thing, it was all of us. We got a lot of help and a whole lot of people. It was nice when we had a Frank Church. We don't have one anymore and it's too bad, but the country is still a pretty country.

The pan-PI3K inhibitor BKM120 and the dual PI3K/mTOR inhibitor BEZ235 have demonstrated preclinical and clinical antitumor activity as single agents and in combination with other drugs. Here, we report interim results of BKM120 or BEZ235 + PTX in pts with advanced solid tumors.Methods
In the first 2 arms of this 4-arm Phase Ib dose-escalation study, pts with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors received once-daily oral BKM120 or BEZ235 + wkly IV PTX. Dose-escalation was guided by a Bayesian logistic regression model with overdose control. The primary objective was to determine the MTD of BKM120 or BEZ235 + PTX.Results
33 pts were treated with BKM120 (mg/d) + PTX (mg/m2) at 6 dosing levels: 40/70 (1 pt); 40/80 (5 pts); 60/80 (3 pts); 80/80 (4 pts); 100/80 (16 pts); and 120/80 (4 pts). DLTs were observed in 4 pts (1/16 at 100/80 and 3/4 at 120/80), including asthenia, hyperglycemia, and depression. The MTD of BKM120/PTX was declared as 100/80. Most common G3/4-suspected study treatment-related AEs (>5%) were neutropenia, hyperglycemia, and anemia. For the BEZ235 arm, 29 pts were treated with BEZ235 (mg/d) + PTX (mg/m2) at 4 dosing levels: 400/70 (2 pts); 400/80 (3 pts); 600/80 (4 pts); and 800/80 (20 pts). DLTs were observed in 4 pts (3/20 at 800/80 and 1/4 at 600/80), including GI events, peripheral neuropathy, and febrile neutropenia. The MTD of BEZ235/PTX was declared as 800/80. Most common G3/4-suspected study treatment-related AEs (>10%) were fatigue, diarrhea, and anemia. As of Feb 29, 29 pts were evaluable for response in each arm. In the BKM120/PTX arm, 1 CR (penile carcinoma [Ca]), 4 PRs (breast and ovarian Ca pts, each with multiple lines of prior therapy [12 and 3] and progression on prior PTX; cervical and vulvar Ca), and 11 SDs were observed. In the BEZ235/PTX arm, 1 PR (large-cell Ca of the lung, taxane-naïve), and 9 SDs were observed.Conclusion
BKM120 or BEZ235 + PTX were generally well tolerated and showed preliminary signs of efficacy. The MTDs of both BKM120/PTX and BEZ235/PTX were reached. For BKM120, the MTD in combination with PTX was the same as the single-agent MTD. Arms 3 and 4 will determine the MTD of BEZ235 or BKM120 + PTX and trastuzumab in pts with advanced HER2+ breast Ca.Disclosure

text: This Swedish folk singer has done it again. Kristian Matsson of The Tallest Man on Earth has managed to create another beautiful, sincere, and bare album. Bare not necessarily in a bad way, but quite the opposite. This album has been getting nothing but good reviews from nearly every blog that has payed attention to it. It was released earlier this month, shortly after the single "The King of Spain." He is a truly talented singer and instrumentalist. His guitar playing is never overpowering or showy, but rather it is easy on the ears and graceful. Kristian Mattson has never been able to escape, for even a second the quick comparisons to Bob Dylan the industry and fans have been giving him. This album probably isn't going to help him get away from it either. His music is simple, often never more than just a guitar and voice but its enough. I believe its actually better that way. Very few things are more beautiful and genuine that a singer just playing a guitar. It makes it hard to hide insincerity. If you add a lot of instruments that are often unnecessary it makes it easier to cover up falsehoods within the music. This is why I believe Kristian is so good at what he does. He uses the bareness in his music to his advantage. He sings of mostly basic things: nature, Ideas, love, music, and life. But it's hard to miss the substance behind it all.
