I'm not just a sex expert, I've been"happily enough" married for 30 years. That's no small achievement and I'm happy to wear the merit badge. I also live an out of the box life erotically and support others to evolve their own sexuality on their own and in their long term romantic relationships. Recently, someone called me a "Marriage Whisperer" but we don't have to whisper. Let's face it, after you say "I do", you evolve. If you don't evolve in your own life, you dry up and emotionally deaden. A sexual numbness can creep in like the fog on a San Francisco morning. How can a person who is living an evolutionarily life expect their relationship to stay the same? Marriages, romantic relationships and live in partnerships need to shift and transform too other wise they fracture and die. I think that's the biggest reason for the high split up rate in the United States. Somehow, we think that if our relationship can't stay as it was when we agreed to "Happily ever after" that it's broken and it's time to move on. Here's the thing, most likely you will confront the same issues again and again.
So how do you evolve and keep it hot and sexy in a relationship, marriage or long term partnership?
1. Commit to owning your own sexuality. Have you really thought about what you want erotically in your own life? Do you have it? What has changed for you since you entered your relationship? It's crucial to do your own work. I have worked with countless women who have told me that they have never had an orgasm alone or with their partner. Believe it or not, learning to access your shifting sexuality is often work best done at first without your partner! Our sexual persona can sometimes get trapped in our relationship dynamics. Separating who you are sexually from how you engage with your partner is often the first crucial step.
2. Practice being sexual. That's right, go flaunt yourself. Wear clothing that makes you feel sexy. Walk like you mean it. Go dancing. Read sexy books. Touch your own body. Change your look.
3. Confront the fact that you might be sexually bored. Honestly, sexual boredom is one of the biggest reason's relationships fail. Perhaps it's time to take your sexuality with your partner out of the bedroom. And let's be clear, I'm talking about way more than having sex on the kitchen counter (even though that can be fun!). It may be time for a "SexPloration Vacation". Have you ever taken a sexuality workshop together? Or planned a private couple's sexuality retreat with sexuality experts? Here's the thing, no one really teaches us how to touch, speak our desires, and play erotically. Most of us learned about sex being quiet and quick. It was about shame, not getting pregnant or caught or catching an STD. Even if your sexuality evolved with more sexual freedom than that - most of us never learn to play erotically. Everyone needs to shake off the sexual cobwebs from our relationship. Trust me, you're not going to do this by reading a book or simply wishing for something different. You actually need to take action and that could take some courage, time and money. It's so worth it.
4. Compliment your partner. When was the last time you told your partner that they did a great job giving you pleasure? Kindness and encouragement go a long way.
5. When was the last time you brought something new to bed? That's right; I am talking sex toys. Take your partner on a desire tour. Plan a date around inviting something new and sexy into your relationship. There are so many new and exciting sex toys on the market. Grown ups like new toys too; buy one!
6. Get real. When was the last time you and your partner actually talked about your sex life? Do it.
7. It's only kinky the first time! What about sharing your sexual fantasies with your partner? This tip goes well with tip number 6. And don't get discouraged if your first "kinky" experiment doesn't go well. Try again. We need to practice being sexual and trying new things! And consider doing something different that is just for your partner. Maybe you are not "into" being tied up but it doesn't freak you out and it really turns on your partner. Maybe be willing to try it on for your partner if it is "neutral" for you. Sometimes our kinks don't line up but they don't repulse us either. Being able to offer your partner their sexual fantasy can be a great big turn on and can create an opening in your sexual relationship.
8. Let the other person win the fight! You don't always have to be right. You know the expression: "Do you want to be happy or right?" Sometimes, it's worth it to let go of being right in favor of being sexy together.

If you were wondering whether or not Xavier fans had gotten over that whole Greg Oden pounding a guy to the floor business, the guy who runs the blog Free Xavier makes it clear that, uh, they're not.
If we are all created in the image and likeness of God, you both were most likely modeled after his taint. You are cheap little bitches on the court. I'm talking Made in Taiwan cheap, dirty smelly hooker cheap, maybe even as cheap as Zoe Oden (that's his mom for those keeping score at home). In fact, I bet that is why your parents got divorced Greg. Your dad didn't like her job. I don't mean to say that it bothered him that she is a dirty whore, just that she was only pulling down $0.75 a day doing it.
And it gets worse from there. The site's motto is "Our mission is to provide the students of Xavier University with independent, unfiltered, and uncensored perspectives while providing a forum for unrestricted student discussion." Apparently!

Mahorn Tops Timberwolves' Expansion Selections
Rick Mahorn
June 15, 1989 — Rick Mahorn, starting power forward for the World Champion Detroit Pistons, was the first of 11 players taken today by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the 1989 NBA Expansion Draft. Mahorn was the second player taken overall after the Orlando Magic made Sidney Green of the New York Knicks the first selection.
Mahorn, a nine-year NBA veteran, joins Tyrone Corbin (Phoenix), Steve Johnson (Portland), Brad Lohaus (Sacramento), David Rivers (Los Angeles Lakers), Mark Davis (Milwaukee), Scott Roth (San Antonio), Shelton Jones (Philadelphia), Eric White (Los Angeles Clippers), Maurice Martin (Denver) and Gunther Behnke (Cleveland) as the Timberwolves' selections from the lists of unprotected players provided by the 23 participating NBA teams.
Orlando, in addition to Green, selected Reggie Theus (Atlanta), Terry Catledge (Washington), Sam Vincent (Chicago), Otis Smith (Golden State), Scott Skiles (Indiana), Jerry Reynolds (Seattle), Marc Acres (Boston), Morlon Wiley (Dallas), Jim Farmer (Utah), Keith Lee (New Jersey) and Frank Johnson (Houston).
The Timberwolves executed the only trade of the draft — Minnesota receives Milwaukee's second-round pick (34th overall) in the June 27 NBA College Draft for selecting Davis. The Timberwolves now own the 10th, 34th and 38th selections in the draft.
"We are really pleased with the players obtained in the Expansion Draft," said team president Bob Stein. "The types of players reflect our philosophy which we have established and stuck with throughout the draft — that of finding a mix of mostly young players, along with a couple of veteran players. We have managed to get that mix of players, many with some degree of success in their background."
The players selected today carry an average age of 25.8 years and three seasons of NBA experience.
"This is great in terms of preparing for the future," said director of player personnel Billy McKinney. "Only two players are 30 years or older; one (Mahorn, 30) started for a World Championship team, and the other (Johnson, 31) was an All-Star a year ago. The rest are in their 20s with varying degrees of success on very good teams."
Timberwolves coach Bill Musselman thinks both teams should be happy with their results. "I think it was a very good draft for both teams," said Musselman. "As for us, we got players with qualities we were looking for — players who are mentally tough and come from winning backgrounds."
Tyrone Corbin
Mahorn (6-10, 255) started 61 of 72 regular-season contests and all 17 playoff games for the Pistons this year. He has played power forward and center and is considered an outstanding defender. Mahorn, who carries a career scoring average of 8.2 ppg, is a lifetime .503 shooter from the field and made 58 percent of his field goal tries in the 1989 NBA Playoffs.
Corbin (6-6, 222, 27 years old) started 30 games at small forward for the Suns, who posted a 55-27 record in 1988-89. The four-year NBA veteran averaged career highs in points (8.2 ppg) and rebounds (5.2 rpg) this season.
Johnson (6-10, 235) has played eight NBA seasons, the last three with Portland, where this year he was predominantly used as the Blazers' sixth man. He has a career scoring average of 12.4 ppg and is annually among the leaders in field goal percentage, with a lifetime mark of .574.
Lohaus (7-0, 235, 24 years old) was born in New Ulm, Minn., and played collegiately at the University of Iowa. A second-round selection of the Celtics in 1987, Lohaus played 118 games for Boston before being traded to Sacramento on Feb. 23, a deal that also sent Danny Ainge to the Kings in exchange for Joe Kleine and Ed Pinckney.
Rivers (6-0, 180, 24 years old) spent his rookie season serving as backup point guard to Magic Johnson, whose hamstring gave Rivers extended playing time in the NBA Finals. He had an outstanding career at Notre Dame, where he was Irish MVP four consecutive seasons.
Davis (6-5, 195, 26 years old) has played professionally since 1985, first in Europe, then in the CBA, before playing for Phoenix and Milwaukee in 1988-89. He is considered a fine outside shooter and a promising offensive threat.
Roth (6-8, 212, 26 years old) has played 89 games over the last two NBA seasons with Utah and San Antonio. He was a member of Musselman's Albany Patroons squad that posted a record-setting 48-6 record in 1987-88, en route to the CBA title.
Jones (6-9, 210, 23 years old) had a fine college career at St. John's and made his NBA debut in 1988-89, playing a total of 49 games for three teams (San Antonio, Golden State, Philadelphia).
White (6-8, 215, 23 years old) has played 55 games over two NBA seasons — 54 with the Clippers, one with Utah. He has shown the ability to play both small forward and power forward effectively.
Martin (6-6, 200, 24 years old) was one of the highest-rated guards by NBA scouts when he came out of St. John's University in 1986, but an injured right knee has limited his playing time to 69 games in three years and kept him out the entire 1988-89 campaign.
Behnke (7-4, 240, 26 years old), a native of West Germany, became the Cavaliers' property when they made him the 101st pick in the 1985 Draft. He has been playing professionally in his homeland. Behnke, whose teammates as a youth included Uwe Blab (Dallas), Detlef Schrempf (Indiana) and Chris Welp (Philadelphia), had planned to play college basketball at the University of Kentucky but decided instead to remain in West Germany.
The Expansion Draft was held via conference call involving officials from the Timberwolves, Magic and NBA. Orlando received 12 picks in the draft, one more than the Timberwolves, after winning a coin flip Monday. Orlando elected to take the first pick in the Expansion Draft, giving the Timberwolves the 10th selection in the first round of the 1989 College Draft.
Timberwolves President Bob Stein
"We were very pleased to get a player like Ricky Mahorn right away. He can help our club from the start."
"We got the kind of players that will fit into our organization nicely. We took players who we really wanted."
"At least as an expansion team, we got players who will represent us in a competitive manner at each position. It is hard to find good big players, but with this draft we have something to build on."
"Our organization had 100% consensus on every pick today. I felt we did an excellent job preparing for the events today, and hopefully the hard work will pay off in the end."
Billy McKinney
Timberwolves Director of Player Personnel Billy McKinney
"I was surprised to find some of the players available in this draft. We wanted Rick Mahorn and Tyrone Corbin and were lucky enough to have the chance to get them."
"We wanted players who would fit our needs. We have a long way to go, but now we have something to build on. I felt it was an advantage for us to draft on an earlier date, but we came prepared."
"It was a pleasant surprise to see Ricky Mahorn available. It sure made our selection process easier. We felt getting big players would be an important part of the draft. The picks we made have a tremendous amout of talent."
Bill Musselman
Timberwolves Head Coach Bill Musselman
"Both teams (Orlando and Minnesota) got good players. It is very difficult to get good people. I liked what we got, and my feeling is Mahorn and Johnson are two big people who can help us."
"This group that we drafted is a nice blend of veterans and young talent. We are trying to build the best ballclub possible. This draft will help us on our way. We are definitely not through putting this club together. I'm just excited to get this thing going."

Most common weapons people are armed with when shot by police
Perhaps the story of 2015 so far has been the continued tension between the police and minority communities in places like Baltimore and McKinney, Texas. To help make sense of police shootings, the Washington Post has compiled an important, unfortunate dataset of every person shot dead by police in the United States in 2015. They have done some great visualizations of the data on their website, along with excellent reporting by Wesley Lowery and others on the subject, but their analysis left me with some questions.
Generally, I wanted to see whether and how racial disparities are reflected in the data. Members of minority racial groups know through their lived experiences that the relationship they have with the authorities are not the same that white people do. Psychological research confirms that Americans are apt to perceive young, Black men as more aggressive…

Softshell turtles, as the name implies, do not have a hard shell. Their shells are little more than hardened skin. This makes them more susceptible to attack than their hard-shelled counterparts. Soft shell turtles can be found in lakes, ponds and streams. Being carnivores, the softshell turtle can deliver quite a painful bite if he gets too close to you. They are somewhat aggressive by nature but become shy in the presence of humans.
Cutting Utensil
Use the pliers to snap the turtle's head off and allow it to bleed for about half an hour.
Roll the turtle onto its back and cut off its claws and feet. Next, cut the skin all the way around the shell and pull it off. Cut through the soft spots connecting the shell to the body and remove it.
Remove the entrails and the legs, as well as the neck. Remove as much meat as possible while leaving the meat on the bone. Rinse with cold water until thoroughly clean.

Hello Dearies!
It has been an exhausting, enjoyable week down at Bible Bee Nationals, but today I'm going to pretend like we haven't been talking about that all. week. long. and do a regular old Classy on Sunday.
Ever since I figured out how to gracefully style this edwardian style skirt of mine, it has regained it's old position in my wardrobe. It used to be such an awkward garment for me, but once I decided to make it work, rather than throwing it out, I have actually begun to find different ways to style it, today's outfit being one of them.
This compass necklace reminds me of my spiritual journey as of late. Normally I don't talk about this sort of stuff on the blog, but I think today's post is the right place to put this up.
Even though I have been a Christian for as long as I can remember, I always have had questions. Why should I love God? Why would He save me? What is my purpose on this earth? I knew the theology and the rhetoric, but in my heart of hearts I still didn't understand. I knew that I was saved, and yet I felt that I wasn't truly living as I ought to as a Christian.
One night, as I was reading a theological book on culture, it all clicked. When God created the earth, he declared it good, but he created man to create and make it even better for His glory. But when man fell, that God-given creative instinct fell too, and everything that man makes and does, though God can use it for His will, is self centered. But this is what man's life looks like without Christ. Christ came to save us because we were fallen. He redeemed us so that we could truly fulfill our creative purpose: creating in, living in, worshipping, and glorifying Him, and Him alone. Though man might think he follows all of God's commandments, yet just because we are proud and rebellious we are sinning against our Lord. This was, and is, my sin. I may not be seen as an outward rebel, but inside I am.
I thought I was doing everything right. What sins did I have to confess? Sure, maybe I had spoken ill to my sisters a few times, so I'll repent of that, but there must be something I am not seeing. There was. I was living for my own selfish desires, even though I was a Christian. I was proud, so proud I didn't even see it. I wasn't valuing God's word as I should have, I wasn't valuing prayer either. I wasn't interested in respecting God, because I had lost the vision. I still knew that I was a sinner and that I was a debtor saved by grace, but I was blinding myself with my own selfish pride.
God, in His mercy, opened my eyes. He answered my prayer to see what I could not see. To shed light on my darkest sins. To show me what I was made for. To show me why I must love Him. To show me Who He Is, and why He saved me. I didn't deserve any of this. I didn't deserve to grow up in a Christian home, calling Christ my Lord all my life, being forgiven of my sins, and yet taking it all for granted. I didn't deserve it! I didn't deserve to be gently shown my sin. God could have just let me fall headfirst into a miry pit. And yet, Christ, His will is so perfect and beautiful, did save me. He loves me. He is my all in all. And to God alone be the glory.
He guided me home when I was straying out at sea. He guided me home to Him. And home is where I will stay.

For Fisher & Thompson, being there for Dairymen means finding innovative ideas and solutions for them when their needs aren't met by our vendors.
Our Dairy Solution Series family of products and equipment were created or modified by Fisher & Thompson and offers efficient, cost-effective solutions in areas that are extremely important to dairy farmers. We believe in our Dairy Solution Series products because we know what they can do for you!
Ideal for Dairies with less than 300 cows!
When larger parlor manufacturers said there was no demand for swing arm systems, Fisher & Thompson decided to design and engineer their own. The ECO-Stall milking parlor is ideal for dairies with 50-250 cows. ECO-Stall follows a parallel stall set up in which one set of milker units are used on one side of the parlor and then swing over on an arm to the other side, enabling you to increase animal throughput and lower labor costs.
The most durable product of its kind on the market!
Available as a stall barn detacher or milk monitor system, Dairy Mate by Fisher & Thompson measures milk yield, temperature, time and somatic cell count. Modified by Fisher & Thompson from an original design by Ag Instruments (AIC), Dairy Mate features AIC circuit boards, state-of-the-art electric motor detach and a heavy duty handle that won't break from everyday use!
Guarantees proper cleaning without the use of electrical outlets, increasing bonus potential and profits!
Invented by Fisher & Thompson, the 12 V Bulk Tank Washer System ensures proper cleaning without the use of electrical outlets which increases profitability. But the benefits don't stop there. With this revolutionary system, the tank is washed immediately after being emptied while everything is still wet and before residue has the opportunity to dry on the tank's inside surface. That means lower bacteria counts and higher premiums.

Performance and Talent Management Solutions- Key Drivers to Revenue Growth
Posted on : 11/01/2017 18:07:00
Today, performance and talent management solutions are increasingly becoming one of the biggest new investments in the Human resources. More and more companies are coming forward with big spends in this area. The reason for this shift in approach is pretty clear- When compared to the general industry norms, performance and talent management solutions have proved to give higher financial returns. A number of recent studies have established a clear relationship between the human capital management and a superior revenue growth. Performance management and improved human resource efficiency have proved to bear a direct relationship with an improved business performance and revenues going up about 2-3%.
• Incentivizing top performers-: Reducing costs should not be the only goal of a business organization. Employees that have been performing well in their particular domains should be facilitated well and motivated to take on larger roles. Improved retention policies of companies, in the past, have not only reaped greater dividends but have also instilled a sense of confidence amongst the top performers which in turn leads to competitive sense in the less-effective lot. This pay-for-performance culture allows managers to reward individuals for improved performance and make decisions providing fair and proper compensation. Many companies Use employee skill testing processes to enable them to motivate employees to reach their maximum potential. This provides better results as addressing each individual's needs in the organization creates a highly motivated workforce that will strive for the best as a whole.

World market leader invests in company headquarters and makes its production sustainable. The plant was officially opened on 17.5.2019.
World market leader invests in company headquarters and makes its production sustainable. The plant was officially opened on 17.5.2019.
Strong Commitment to site at Pforzheim
The new building of the modern production at the company headquarters of the global Witzenmann Group sets a clear signal. At Pforzheim Buchbusch, the world market leader for flexible innovative elements produces components for commercial vehicles and engines. The digital technology strategy that is underway is expressed at the new site, which serves as a model for the future design of the group's production facilities worldwide.
Sustainably planned
The new building in the open countryside offered the planners an open field, on which a building, production layout and production processes could be designed optimally. The core element is the production facility of approx. 4,000 m² and 10 metres in height. The production lines can be positioned here process-optimised without any disruptive supports and adapted easily to changing requirements.
Great potential
There is great growth potential in the commercial vehicles and motors business division for the Witzenmann Group, since legislation is prescribing increasingly stricter emission limits globally for commercial vehicles, too. As a result, the demand for technologically sophisticated components is increasing. Witzenmann has extensive engineering and manufacturing expertise here and thus fulfills a fundamental requirement for sustainable production at the labour-intensive site in Germany. Buchbusch also takes the increasing significance of automation and digital technology into account.
Industry 4.0 and digital technology
The Witzenmann Group is testing trend-setting projects at the Buchbusch site, which if suitable within the framework of the digital technology strategy, will be rolled out globally.
Witzenmann is currently gaining experience, for example, with a driverless transportation system in the immediate production environment. Furthermore, Witzenmann employees at Buchbusch are testing the use of so-called augmented reality glasses. These could make remote maintenance and machine training considerably easier and more efficient.

Healthy Choices
Nagging injuries create tough choices for some CIM runners
As thousands of runners cross the finish line Sunday in the California International Marathon, many will do so with smarting injuries brought on by months of training. Others who paid up to $150 to enter won't be there at all, having made the difficult decision that they were too badly hurt to run.
Karen Bartells, a 42-year-old Sacramento resident who has been training for the CIM all year, was distressed when her ankle began to hurt during a run two weeks ago. She spent one week resting in the hopes that the pain would ease. She sought last-minute help from a physical therapist and learned stability exercises to do at home.
When she went running again just days before the race, the injury was still giving her trouble – but not enough to keep her from competing.
"We'll see how it goes," she said. "We'll see how bad it hurts. If I have to I'll stop, but I hope not."
The "runner's mentality," as physical therapist Meggie Safford called it while working on Bartells at Results Physical Therapy and Training Center in Sacramento, is what motivates many runners to complete the race even when physically compromised.
"You just kind of want to push through it," she said. "You see the end goal in sight; you've been training for something for a long, long time. The last thing you want to do is be sidelined by some 'small' injury."
Industrywide research indicates that 10 percent to 25 percent of registrants typically drop out of a full marathon, said Eli Asch, director of race operations for the Sacramento Running Association. Although the CIM rules do not provide registration refunds for injured runners, they do allow participants to switch their entry to the Relay Challenge, which allows a team of runners to complete smaller portions of the marathon route.
Sports medicine practitioner Lino Cedros, known in the local running community as the "fix it" guy when things go wrong, said he's had his hands full with distraught runners for the past two weeks – all trying to will their bodies into race shape in time for the CIM.
Cedros, who owns Kinections Inc. in midtown Sacramento, said he saw three to five CIM clients per day leading up to the race, most with ankle, foot, calf, knee or lower back problems. He gave about 80 percent of them clearance to race and told the rest to sit it out.
For many marathoners, running issues surface late in the training process due to the repeated overuse of muscles for an extended period of time. After weeks of practice, runners get lax about stretching, wear out their shoes or start treading on tip toe due to rain and leaves when the weather changes, Cedros said.
As race day approaches, some women group into "comfort zones" with friends despite having trained individually, which forces them to modify their pace in an unhealthy way.
Cedros has a three-day rule. If the pain eases after resting for that time, a runner can battle through. If the injury still hurts when bearing weight, it's time to seek professional help and possibly put the shoes away.
"If I think you can do it, I'll do everything in my power to get you to do it," he said. "If I think you can't, then you're done."
Cedros still remembers a client with hip pain who insisted on running the Boston Marathon against his recommendation. The runner later required a bilateral hip replacement due to avascular necrosis, a bone-tissue condition made worse by weight-bearing activities such as running.
Whether a runner can overcome an injury by marathon time depends on what the injury is and when it was sustained, said Dr. Kevin Kirby, podiatrist and former UC Davis track team member. When injuries occur a few months in advance, Kirby recommends swimming or cycling to maintain endurance while nursing running muscles back to health.
If it's two weeks to race day when an injury strikes, the chance of sufficient recovery is slim. And if it hurts at the starting line, it's only going to get worse.
"If you get in the race and you can't run normally, you should just stop," he said. "Just stop. Take the bus home. It's not worth it."
At Fleet Feet Sports, a midtown shoe store and runner's hub with its own CIM training program, general manager Dusty Robinson said he sees scores of people in the days leading up to the race asking for last-minute tips and tricks. They purchase products intended to stabilize injuries – particularly compression wear, which decreases vibration in the muscle, allowing it to fatigue at a slower rate.
"In most cases, it's stuff that with some massage and products and really strong willpower, a lot of people just get through," he said. "Then there are those that along the way the injury kicks up on them and they have to pull out halfway through. Nobody signed up for it that way."

First thing we did today was poke at the sub-floor. It has been consistently above freezing the past few days so today was our first opportunity to poke the floor and see if it was still solid or just frozen solid. Unsurprisingly and unfortunately the now thawed floors are quite soft.
Very soft. Soft and flaking up bits of rotted plywood.
To be honest I was relieved at the extent of the rotting. There is no fixing that floor, replacing is the only option. Sometimes it is tough to choose whether to salvage or to scrap, this is not one of those times. I am already watching sales flyers at the big home improvement stores for discounts on marine grade plywood. I am all about reusing when possible but in this case, out with the old and in with the new, water-resistant marine grade plywood.
While Tim poked around a bit I started vacuuming with my new toy. Goodbye mice poop. The bleached and now safe to dispose droppings didn't stand a chance.
I then moved to the back of Alice as that was where the majority of vacuuming was needed.
When vacuming the bedroom area, I found a scrap of paper face down wedged into the corner. Just as I was about to let my new toy suck up the scrap, I looked closer and noticed it wasn't garbage. It was treasure!
It was a photo! I squealed and Tim stopped drilling and was probably thinking I saw a dreaded dead mouse (I won't even entertain thoughts of live mice still living in the walls) by the high-pitched "TIM!" that came from my mouth. I couldn't help it. It is just too wonderful of a photo not to get excited about.
That is Airstream Al standing in front of Alice (in what I am going to assume, as well as fill in the story gaps with my best-case-fairytale-serendipitous-possibly-fictitious-but-might-be-true assumption) with the man he bought Alice from in the mid-nineties. That right there could be Alice's original owner. I don't know it to be true, but in my heart and from this moment on that is the way I will tell this story.
We spent the day cleaning up mouse poop and removing rivets. I can make up whatever story I want. So hence forth, from now until eternity, that photo will be known as the photo found tucked into the corner of the rotted out, mice poop covered sub-floor of Alice that captures the moment that Alice transferred ownership from original owner to Airstream Al.
That photo is not unlike the photo I took of just after Al handed over the title to Tim.
We are the third owners of Alice and to have found that photo today really was like finding treasure. You can bet that photo will be hung and have pride of place somewhere in Alice when we have finished renovations. It is moments like this, people… these are the moments that make this journey worth giving up our Saturday afternoons to don a mask and clean up mouse poop.

MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A sculpture of a Mayan warrior that sold for more than $4 million at a Paris auction house this week is a fake, Mexico's National Institute of Anthropology and History said.
The masked, stone figure, sold by a private collector, was billed as an impressive piece of Pre-Columbian art and was believed to be a unique work dating from around 550 to 950 A.D. It sold for 2.9 million euros ($4.1 million) on Monday.
But Mexican experts at the institute who studied the auction catalog said the piece, a warrior holding a shield and weapon and wearing a turban-like hat, had been made recently and was carefully carved to give an ancient appearance. Another 66 pieces in the auction also were fakes, they said.
"The figure tries to recreate the Pre-Columbian features of the Maya region in southeastern Mexico but the height, the posture of the flexed legs and the boot straps are not characteristic of this culture," the institute said in a statement.
Mexico's Foreign Ministry said it had contacted the French government prior to the auction to alert it to the fraud.

Simplero is a freedom machine.
Okay...but what does that mean?
First, it's important for you to know why Simplero exists.
Simplero exists to raise the level of consciousness on the planet. It probably sounds weird for the founder of a software company to say that, but it's true.
In February 2008, I had an epiphany: I'm here to teach a new way to do entrepreneurship; a way that's deeply rooted in our spirituality.
Naturally I set out to teach this new revelation right away but I found the software to support this kind of business quite lacking, so I created my own.
Initially, it was just for my own use. But soon people started asking if they could use it too and Simplero was born!
So that's why I say Simplero exists to raise the level of consciousness on the planet, and it does so in many ways.
- Every time we learn something new, our consciousness is raised.
- Every time we teach someone something of value, our consciousness is raised.
- Every time someone decides to quit a job that limits their spirit to pursue their dreams, consciousness is raised.
And when we raise our consciousness, we increase our freedom in equal measure.
That's what makes Simplero a freedom machine.
It gives people the freedom to live where they want to live, work how and when they want to work, and make money the way they want to make money, while doing something amazing for other people.
We are here to help free people from the boring, monotonous, day-to-day grind of "normal" life so they can reach out and grasp what is extraordinary.
We free our customers by giving them a platform that removes technological headaches.
In turn, Simplero customers free the people they serve by giving them compelling, valuable, and life-changing content that improves their lives.
It's a perpetual value loop.
A freedom machine.

Welcome to the Simplero family! We'd be honored to serve you.
Above all, we're about service. We aim to truly serve anyone who comes into contact with us. We don't need to make a profit on each and every transaction when looked at in isolation.

And while we strive to not let any of that stuff impact you negatively, we can't promise it won't. However, we promise that we'll always own up to it and make it right. We put being real and authentic above trying to pretend we're some kind of robot or perfect sample of the human species.
We want to be open about how we operate, the decisions we make, why we make them, what we think, and why we think that way. We're happy to share details about our business and our life. Anything we learned the hard way, we might as well share with others. We're open about the reality behind the scenes.
We don't have all the answers. One of the things we enjoy more than anything else is when we're able to co-create our product with you. You have an idea, a desire, or a challenge, and together we're able to come up with a great solution, and implement it right away. We can't always do that, but when we can, it's the best.
Ultimately, everything we do is about love. We like to think of ourselves as Spreading Love Through Software™. Through the energy we infuse in the software, through our interactions, through what our software enables you to do. If we're not expanding in love, and sharing that love with the people around us, what's the point?
We say what we mean, and do what we say. We speak clearly, in language that we'd use with our closest friends, language that clearly expresses what we think and believe and feel. No corporate bullshit, no legalese, just clear thinking and clear sentences. And we do what we find to be the right and honorable thing to do in each situation.
We want you to feel like you've come home when you decide to use Simplero. We want you to feel welcomed, cared for, and safe, and trust that we have your back.
With Simplero, you have everything you need to build, launch, and grow your online business. Sign up for a free trial today and see why they call us a freedom machine!

Chelsea McBride's Socialist Night School – "The Twilight Fall"
If you've been to a gig, you've heard me tell this story, but it goes like this:
Picture your six-year-old-self, in onesie pajamas, falling through a purple sky with orange clouds, until you land in the middle of a carnival. It appears to be deserted – until you approach the carousel, that is, and grey translucent spirits begin to swirl around your head.
This is the Twilight Fall.

Arkansas recently enacted reforms that would allow grocery stores in the state to sell wine (they can already sell beer), but some incumbent liquor store owners sought to challenge the new law via litigation. According to The Arkansas Times, however, a federal judge has rejected a preliminary injunction in the case:
"Federal Judge Brian Miller has denied a request for a preliminary injunction in a lawsuit by retail liquor stores attempting to block a state law taking effect Thursday that allows permitted grocery stores to sell all types of wine, not just Arkansas and so-called small batch wines.
The judge also dismissed the liquor store claims of a U.S. constitutional equal protection violation — that is, that differences in regulation for liquor stores and grocery stores were unfair.
The state Alcoholic Beverage Control Board has more than 200 applications for grocery store wine sales under the 2017 law. It was a product of some dickering between grocery stores and so-called county line liquor stores. Those liquor stores went along with the new law in return for a promise that retail grocers wouldn't continue a county-by-county effort to vote "dry" counties wet and thus open them to competition to liquor stores perched at their borders — such as the Conway County liquor stores that do huge business with people from "dry" Faulkner County..."
Read the rest here.
A previous white paper by R Street's Jarrett Dieterle was cited in another article about the Arkansas grocery store battles.

A pluot is a hybrid fruit created by cross-breeding a plum and an apricot. Pluots do not occur in nature and were first created in the late 20th century.
The composition of a pluot is roughly 60 to 75 percent plum and 25 to 40 percent apricot. They thus taste more like a plum but have the texture of an apricot. They also usually have the plum's darker coloration.
The pluot was created by Floyd Zaiger in the 1980s and is a registered trademark of his company, Zaiger Genetics. There are actually over 20 varieties of pluot, which vary in how much of the composition is plum and how much is apricot.

Marisa Cabal
Marisa Cabal, born in Barcelona/Spain in 1984, followed classical and contemporary dance in the Theatre Institute of Barcelona. During her studies at P.A.R.T.S. she developed a series of dance solos based on the mixture of flamenco and contemporary dance. In her last year, she made the piece keeping busy keeping still in collaboration with Tuur Marinus and Fabian Barba, which was later developed into the quintet Dominos and Butterflies with Franziska Aigner and Gabriel Schenker. In November 2010 STUDIUM, a trio with next to herself Fabián Barba and Tuur Marinus, premièred at the Beursschouwburg in Brussels.
Stav Yeini
Born in Berlin raised in Israel and currently living in Brussels. Graduated from 'Thelma Yelin High school of the Arts' in 2004 (IL), where she was trained as a professional dancer and choreographer.
Since 2006 she had been studying at P.A.R.T.S. During her studies she had made the piece 'In circumstances' which took place in several dance and performance festivals in Belgium (Brussels, Antwerp), Holland (Utrecht) and France. (Paris)
Created a short film 'A man standing behind a seated woman' in collaboration with Veli Lehetovaara (FL), Mentor Thierry De May, which had been selected for the audience prize in Idill competition in Brussels and had been presented in film festivals in Helsinki, Tallin, Festival de Marseille, Rio and Sao Paulo.
Created the solo 'Mind the gap' which had been shown in Brussels, Antwerp and Frankfurt.
Since her graduation from P.A.R.T.S in June 2010 she have been collaborating with the collective 'Busy Rocks' in 'Studium' and in a performance in Art Basel.
Busy Rocks
Busy Rocks is a contemporary dance collective, formed in 2008 by five P.A.R.T.S. graduates: Franziska Aigner (AT), Fabián Barba (ECU), Marisa Cabal (ES), Tuur Marinus (BE) and Gabriel Schenker (BR). Busy Rocks was founded on artistic affinities and a desire to keep up and deepen the productive interactions that were built throughout the four years spent together at P.A.R.T.S. The collective creates several projects a year, in several constellations.
Busy Rocks is fascinated by the way movements are produced and perceived. They challenge the common perception of the dancer as a virtuous self-propelling body, moving freely through empty, resistance-less space. The Busy Rocks collective functions as an inspirational environment and a platform for a constant and consistent work sharing.
Busy Rocks created the projects Dominos and Butterflies (2009), A Mary Wigman Dance Evening (Fabián Barba, 2009), Studium (Tuur Marinus, 2010), Fields (Franziska Aigner, 2011), A personal yet collective history (Fabián Barba, 2011), As It Fell (Marisa Cabal, Stav Yeini, 2012), Still Animals (Tuur Marinus, 2012). From 2010 to 2012 Busy Rocks is artist-in-residence at Beursschouwburg (Brussels, BE).

The Texas Board of Education, whose decisions can set textbook standards for the entire country, is now trying to take on the "Muslim propaganda" in world history books.
The social conservatives on the board, who earlier this year set new standards requiring textbooks to include sections on anti-Equal Rights Amendment crusader Phyllis Schafly, the Contract with America and the Christian beliefs of the Founders, want to pass a resolution warning textbook makers not to include "gross pro-Islamic, anti-Christian distortions" in their books.
According to board member Ken Mercer, many world history books are rife with such "Muslim propaganda.""One of the books I reviewed has 120 lines referencing Christian beliefs, but has 248 lines referencing Muslim beliefs," Mercer told WOAI News Radio.
A draft of the resolution obtained by the Dallas Morning News reads, in part, that "diverse reviewers have repeatedly documented gross pro-Islamic, anti-Christian distortions in social studies texts," including "sanitized definitions of 'jihad' that exclude religious intolerance or military aggression against non-Muslims … which undergirds worldwide Muslim terrorism."
This is in part due, the resolution argues, to "Middle-Easterners" infiltrating the textbook market.
"More such discriminatory treatment of religion may occur as Middle Easterners buy into the U.S. public school textbook oligopoly, as they are doing now," it reads. As the Dallas Morning News pointed out, "They offered no specific evidence of such investments."
The books the conservatives reference have also been out of Texas schools since 2003, as one Republican board member pointed out.
Because Texas has such a large public school system, the standards the state board sets have often been used by textbook manufacturers for the books they sell throughout the country. However, Education Secretary Arne Duncan said in May that other states shouldn't be concerned: "Textbook companies today have a real ability to customize textbooks."
The board will vote on the resolution next week, when the board meets in Austin.

RE: Anchoring Kills
Coincidently, I just got this in my email...
St. Petersburg Times Article
By Emily Nipps and Drew Harwell, St. PetersburgTimes Staff Writers
In Print: Saturday, March 28, 2009
TAMPA The small boat rocked wildly in 6-foot waves. More than 30 miles from shore, the four men knew it was time to go back, time to pull up anchor.
But it wouldn't budge.
By turns, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers Marquis Cooper and Corey Smith and former University of South Florida football players Will Bleakley and Nick Schuyler all heaved mightily to no avail.
They decided to retie the anchor line from the bow of the 21-foot boat to the stern, then gun the engine to jerk the anchor out of the gulf's bottom.
It only made matters worse. The thrust pushed the anchor deeper, tightening the anchor line and pulling down the stern of the boat, exposing it to sloshing seas.
In one swift moment, the boat became swamped, overturned and dumped the four men into 62-degree seas.
Thus began the series of events that forever changed one life and ended three others.
In a report Friday, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission concluded the men improperly anchored the boat during their Feb. 28 fishing trip.
The 12-page report detailed the boaters' attempt to free the anchor, which ultimately submerged and capsized the vessel.
It also revealed information about the harrowing moments that followed, based on an interview with the sole survivor. All four men were on top of the hull until, one by one, three of the men died or purposefully slipped away.
"They made a mistake that turned out to be a tragic event," said investigator James Manson.
One man, Schuyler, survived the fishing trip.
Three others Cooper, Smith and Bleakley vanished in the cold and choppy waters of the Gulf of Mexico sometime after the group left shore Feb. 28.
Their bodies have not been found.
The Coast Guard discovered Schuyler during an air-and-sea search that scoured more than 20,000 square miles.
Clinging to the motor of Cooper's capsized boat, he had been in the water some 42 hours.
From his hospital bed, 24-year-old Schuyler told a story of loss and survival. Details of his account he was "very articulate," according to Manson were used in the state's investigation of the accident.
The report says about 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 28, the men attempted to pull up the anchor of Cooper's boat and head back to port.
But they were unable to move anchor, nestled 138 feet below. Bleakley suggested re-tying the anchor line from the front of the boat to the rear, then gunning the motor to yank it loose.
That was their first mistake, Manson said. The anchor always should be tied to the more stable bow.
Cooper told the men he already had lost an anchor the same way the previous weekend, Schuyler told investigators. An offshore anchor costs about $80 to $100, Manson said, and the men probably did not want to lose another one.
"Again, that's a mistake," said Manson. Cutting the line might have saved lives.
The men tied the anchor line to a bracket at the back left side of the boat, leaving little or no slack to the line.
Cooper started the 200-horsepower motor and the boat thrust forward. Moments later, if flipped, submerged and rolled to its port, or left, side, the report said.
The men were thrown into the gulf, where they clung to the capsized boat. They couldn't upright the boat.
Bleakley retrieved three life jackets for the men and a throwable flotation device for himself.
The four struggled to stay atop the hull in rough waters, the report said. The water was up to their chests while they hung on. At some point, Schuyler cut the anchor line with the propeller of the motor.
"Mr. Schuyler had been wearing a watch affixed with a light and was able to record approximate time of events," the report said.
After hours in the water, 26-year-old Cooper was the first to show signs of hypothermia before dying about 5:30 a.m. Sunday, March 1, Schuyler told investigators.
The other men removed Cooper's life jacket as his body began to drift from the boat. Bleakley, 25, put on Cooper's life jacket, the report said.
An hour later, 29-year-old Smith was next to show signs of "extreme hypothermia," and he slipped off his life jacket and left the boat. Almost 24 hours later, Bleakley appeared to die in Schuyler's arms, and Schuyler released Bleakley into the water, the report said.
Bleakley's father, Bob, said he saw the report Friday afternoon, though none of the details surprised him. He only hoped some lessons could be learned from the accident that killed his son and friends.
"I don't need any more information from investigative agencies," Bob Bleakley said. "However, the public might."
The fish and wildlife report concluded the accident was caused by three factors: improper anchoring of the boat to the port side transom eye bracket; Cooper using the motor to throttle forward in hopes of releasing the anchor from the gulf's bottom; and failure to leave enough slack in the anchor line to compensate for top-water gulf conditions, which resulted in pulling the stern of the boat into the water.
The boat was eventually retrieved, but the anchor was never found.

OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - March 17, 2014) - Everton Resources Inc. ("Everton" or the "Company")(TSX VENTURE:EVR)(FRANKFURT:ERV) is pleased to announce that the Company has amended the Wildcat option agreement with Hecla Quebec Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Hecla Mining Company (collectively "Hecla").
The Wildcat option agreement was amended to defer the timing and the amount of exploration commitments required by Hecla to earn a 50% interest in the Wildcat properties. Under the original agreement, Hecla had to incur $1,470,000 of exploration expenditures by November 2015. Under the amendment, Hecla will have to incur $2,780,000 of exploration expenses by November 2017. Of this revised amount, Everton will be required to incur $1,000,000 by December 31, 2014, which will be deemed to have been incurred by Hecla. Everton will fund this amount from its recent $1,000,000 flow-through financing (see news release March 7, 2014).
In consideration for Everton agreeing to incur $1,000,000 of exploration related expenditures during 2014, Hecla has made a one-time option payment to Everton of $700,000.
The second option to allow Hecla to increase its interest from 50% to 65% was also amended to decrease the exploration expenditure requirement from $3,000,000 to $2,500,000.
Hecla plans to drill approximately 2,900 metres, split between two targets previously defined by till sampling and prospecting. In both cases, rock characteristics observed in the field show similarities with the Goldcorp's Eleonore Mine. The Wildcat 1 and Wildcat 4 targets are located 20 km west and 40 km south-east of Eleonore respectively, along the same regional gold bearing structure. During this upcoming summer, approximately $500,000 will be spent on till sampling and prospecting to follow up on prospective areas targeted with gold in till anomalies. The sampling program is designed to progress the merit of these targets to the point they require legitimate follow-up through a drilling program.
About Everton Resources Inc.
Everton is actively exploring in the Dominican Republic adjacent to the Pueblo Viejo Mine, owned by the world's two largest gold mining companies, Barrick Gold Corporation (60%) in partnership with Goldcorp Inc. (40%) ("Goldcorp"). Everton also holds an interest in the Opinaca region of James Bay, Quebec where the Company has partnered with Hecla (formerly Aurizon Mines Ltd.) which is advancing Everton's interest by funding exploration work on one of the largest land packages adjacent to Goldcorp's Eleonore Mine.

Perfect terrain
The Finnmark plain is perfect terrain for dogsledding; the dogs can get up quite a speed over white surfaces without much vegetation poking through the snow. A few ups and downs ensure that you and the dogs won't get bored. Cold, dry winter weather creates perfect snow, and in good boots and suits, with some effort needed behind the sled, you won't feel cold.
Dark months
In December and January, the sun is below the horizon on the Finnmark plain, but it is still quite light in the middle of the day, often with gloriously colourful skies. There is more light in February and March, but it's still full winter with low temperatures. This is the time for round trips on the Finnmark plain with dogs. They last from four to eight days, with accommodation in Engholm's own lodge and the cabins and mountain lodges of the Finnmark plain.
Only for tough guys?
You don't need to be rough or tough to go on a trip. Dogsledding isn't generally all that physical, because the dogs do the work. You might have to help them a bit up the hills, and you need to pitch in when the dogs are harnessed and unharnessed, but if you're fully able and go for long walks on Sundays, it's well within your capabilities. You can also sit in the guide's sled or stand on a sled that is pulled by the guide's sled.
See herds of reindeer
Sven Engholm is in close contact with the reindeer herders, and can take his guests to visit the herds. Reindeer herding is extremely unpredictable — if a herd panics, it takes the herders days to get them together again, so tourists can often be disappointed. However, Sven has agreements with five families and there is always someone with a herd to visit. On many of the trips, visitors get to spend a day out with the herd, and help with feeding, separating the animals or whatever else might be needed that day.
Reindeer migration
In April, reindeer begin their annual migration towards the coast. Sven Engholm then takes a group of guests to go with them. The guests follow the herd for four days, and get involved in the daily chores. Over a coffee around the campfire, the guests get to know the herders and hear about an approach to life that is completely different from what most of us know.
Expedition trips
In April, when it's spring elsewhere, the snow is still deep in Finnmark. The sun is warm during the long days, but the nights are very cold. This is the time for long expeditions all the way to the coast. The destination is the house at Steinbukt on the West Finnmark coast. Accommodation is in tents, and long distances are covered during the day, so some prior knowledge and experience of the outdoors is required.

Engholm has a detailed and extremely informative website, with various trips of different durations. www.engholm.no

All eyes on Ted Ligety today in combined event at world champs
Beaver Creek — Ted Ligety first came to the attention of the American public in 2006 when he won a surprise gold medal in combined at the Torino Olympics.
Then he was a relatively unknown 22-year-old from Park City, Utah. Since then he has won 24 World Cup races, five World Cup giant slalom titles, an Olympic gold medal in GS (2014), four world championships gold medals including three in 2013 and a world champs bronze.
At the world championships today he will be the strongest U.S. hope in the alpine combined, which consists of a downhill run this morning and one run of slalom this afternoon. He is the defending world champion in the event.
Ligety's toughest challenge today may come from Alexis Pinturault of France.
"He probably is a better slalom skier than me, definitely a better slalom skier than me on most days," Ligety said. "In downhill, hopefully I can put some time on him."

I will appreciate any feedback of interest or forwarding this call to others you think might be interested:
Call for Papers for the 79th Annual Meeting of the Society for American Archaeology Meetings, April 24 – 27 Austin
Co-Creation, the Public and the Archaeological Record
Robert Connolly (University of Memphis) and Elizabeth Bollwerk (University of Virginia)
Co-creation in public archaeology is a means to engage and empower citizens to become stakeholders of the archaeological record. In museum contexts Simon (2010:278) writes that the purpose of co-creative community projects is "to give voice and be responsive to the needs and interests of local community members; to provide a place for community engagement and dialogue; and to help participants develop skills that will support their own individual and community goals." Co-creation moves beyond simple "hands-on" educational experiences because participants are invited to play an active role in designing and constructing the final products to address their needs and interests. We seek papers that explore the following questions from theoretical, methodological or case study perspectives:
• How can a co-creative approach enhance the presentation and preservation of public archaeological resources?
• What are the obstacles to co-creative projects? Can we develop a set of best practices associated with these types of projects? If so, what are they?
• How are co-creative projects different from field schools, or typical volunteer programs?
• How do co-creative projects fit with open authority models?
• How do co-creative projects lend themselves to user-generated digital and other resources?
• Are co-creative models a means to demonstrate the relevance of the archaeological discipline in an era of increased life-long, informal, and free-choice learning?
• How can co-creative projects have an adverse impact on archaeological resources?
• How can co-creative projects demonstrate the ability of archaeology to contribute to debates about contemporary issues and problems?
Please submit a 100 word abstract or address queries/comments by June 15, 2013 to Robert Connolly (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Elizabeth Bollwerk (firstname.lastname@example.com)

Mr. Thomas Rensvold
Re: Attain System
Dear Mr. Rensvold:
This letter extends the temporary no-action position originally taken by the Division of Market Regulation ("Division") on February 4, 1998 (the "1998 Letter) until June 28, 2006. The 1998 Letter expressed the Division's view that the Attain System ("ATTAIN" or "System") is an "electronic communications network" ("ECN") as defined in the amendments to the Quote Rule and the Limit Order Display Rule (cumulatively, "Order Execution Rules") and would be in compliance with the requirements applicable to the ECN Display Alternative set forth in the ECN Amendment with respect to Nasdaq securities for which a linkage between ATTAIN and the Nasdaq System is operational. In the 1998 Letter, the Division stated that it would not recommend that the Commission take enforcement action against Nasdaq market makers who are participants in the System, if those Nasdaq market makers enter orders into the System without modifying their public quotations in compliance with the ECN Amendment. That no-action position was temporarily extended most recently in a letter dated January 6, 2006.
The Division continues to condition its position on compliance with the terms expressed in the 1998 Letter. These terms include compliance with the non-discrimination provisions of the Nasdaq Access Services Agreement. ATTAIN should respond to orders entered into ATTAIN through Nasdaq access no slower than ATTAIN responds to orders entered directly into the System, and in any event in no more than a few seconds.
The Division further conditions its position upon ATTAIN having sufficient capacity to handle the volume of trading reasonably anticipated in its System. Such capacity should be ensured through periodic review and testing to (1) ensure future capacity, (2) identify potential weaknesses, and (3) reduce the risks of system failures and threats to system integrity. The Division may request records from Domestic Securities, Inc. ("Domestic") regarding such reviews and tests.
The Division further conditions its position on Domestic providing broker-dealers access via either Nasdaq or the telephone for a charge of no more than the fee Domestic charges a substantial proportion of its active broker-dealer subscribers, and in any event, no more than $0.003 per share,1 plus any fee charged to Domestic by Nasdaq.
The Division further conditions its position on Domestic's keeping the System separate from other businesses of Domestic. Accordingly, the Division expects ATTAIN will not be used primarily for proprietary trading by Domestic.
This no-action position concerns enforcement action under Section 11A of the Exchange Act only, and does not express any legal conclusions regarding the applicability of Section 11A of the Exchange Act or other statutory or regulatory provisions of the federal securities laws. This no-action position is based solely on the representations you have made and conditions set forth in this letter. Any different facts or conditions might require a different response. This no-action position is subject to changes in current law, regulation, and interpretations; any such change may require the Division to reevaluate and withdraw or modify this position. In particular, the Division will consider extending, modifying, or revoking its temporary no-action position prior to June 28, 2006, based on its continuing experience with ATTAIN's compliance with the terms of this no-action letter and the operation of the ECN Display Alternative.

Melleefresh has accumulated some impressive press and reviews over the years. Below is a selection...
The track brings a lot of old school house vibes, the ones that some of us (me, me) are missing. That smooth groove and those ambiental synths and stabs... Definitely not a track to miss for any house lover out there.>more
Whether it's as the recording artist Melleefresh or as a record company owner who helped to globally establish EDM superstar Deadmau5, all Melleny Melody wants to do is play. Her dance-oriented label Play Records is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, generating enough revenue over the years through more than 1000 released tracks ot substantially bankroll London, U.K.-based Play Deep Studios.>more
The U.K. studio scene has a relatively new player in the game, as the buzz surrounding Play Deep continues to grow. Established a little over a year ago, Play Deep "Mark II," as co-owner and president Zach "Spydabrown" Brown-Smith calls it, is a three-storey, three-room state-of-the-art recording studio located in the posh King's Cross neighbourhood in London.>more
Toronto's Melleefresh just dropped a brand new album Secrets with Alixander "Dirty 30" III from Azari & III fame on Play Records and we're celebrating with this exclusive mix!>more
In a way, Melleefresh is one of the pivotal figures in North American dance music. After all, the producer uncovered deadmau5, an artist who - like it or not - has dominated clubs, stages and arenas across the continent for the past five years. A close collaborator, Melleefresh has stuck to her underground roots.>more
DJs are already larger than life behind their turntables (and they can whip a crowd in a veritable frenzy) but casting DJs as superheroes on the pages of a graphic novel is a fresh approach.>more
Melleny Melody has the voice of a Care Bear, the stage presence of a star and the business know-how it takes to run one of Canada's premier electronic and dance labels. Melody is the multi-talented performer, songwreiter and founder of Play Records who is perhaps most identifiable as the person who discovered world-renowned DJ-producer deadmau5.>more
