Albums in the year 2010
01. Shining - Blackjazz
Pretty solidly the album of the year, this one. Funny thing is, I knew as much four days into the year! And then for sure by the end of January. How boring, right, readers? Wrong! Wrong because Blackjazz was the gift that kept giving: its gleaming spires and whirring cogs held within them enough depth for you to gaze into for months without getting tired.
It was almost like a black hole, but instead of destruction and anti-matter, it gave and created. Everything about it is fantastic. It opens up with some pretty easy to digest tunes and soon gets bigger and more complex, til it ends up consuming itself. There are references here to all types of metal, numerous types of non-metal, and there are even nods to Shining's own past; old ideas and motifs get dusted off and given a new coat of paint. Of course it was going to be album of the year. If there was anything better, the concept of music itself would likely have been cheapened due to the onslaught it was receiving.
=02. Black Breath - Heavy Breathing
=02. Ke$ha - Animal
I am really having trouble deciding between these two. You'll know, and dislike, one of these, and you probably won't know the other at all. I'll start with Black Breath. Some members of the band were in a hardcore outfit called Shook Ones, who I heard of but never actually heard. Rumour has it Black Breath was started as a bit of an ironic thing. Hur hur, let's do an old school thrash thing, they probably didn't say to each other. Anyway, they gave it a go, and it turned out they are really good at it. They put out an EP called Razor to Oblivion a couple of years ago, which was on that Saviours/Accused/Black Cobra tip. As good as it was, it was nothing on this album.
I don't know if I'll actually do a 'proper' review of it, so here are the key points. It kicks in pretty much from the start. No spooky acoustic arpeggio interludes for Black Breath! Only on two songs does this band let up at all: the title track is an eerie instrumental tune that puts me in mind of Splatterhouse or Halloween or something; proper menacing. The other is 'Unholy Virgin', which at first sounds like it's going to be Alannah Myles' 'Black Velvet', but instead bludgeons, just pretty slowly. The rest of the record is a wicked mix of Discharge-style speedcore and early Entombed death 'n' roll. Both of which are legitimate things. Best thrash album in absolutely years. Since either the first Haunted album (1998) or second Strapping Young Lad one (1997). And better than any Entombed album. Yeah, I said it!
Ke$ha is the one you will now. She's bratty and trashy and loud, so it'll have been hard for you to avoid something like 'Tik Tok'. This album was just a pure sugar rush to me. I listened to it a million times. Those million were mainly in the first few months of the year, but I still love the album, even if I over-played it a bit. As the 'big dog' Westwood would say, Animal is heavy hit after heavy hit. It's officially a problem! I love the hooks, the production and the attitude Ke$ha displays. Some people say she's a Gaga knock-off, but where Gaga is the high-class would-be Madonna, Ke$ha has a lot more in common with the pure energy blasts of Andrew WK or Be Your Own Pet. And coming from me, that is high praise indeed.
04. Harvey Milk - A Small Turn of Human Kindness
I know, I know. Harvey Milk were officially cool in 2008, when they released the fine, quite catchy, Life... The Best Game in Town. I'll let you in on a little secret: this is a lot better. Another album I wish I'd got off my arse and reviewed for Fact, it's a beautifully sad album that people mistake for ugly or difficult. It's not difficult at all; its 37.5 minutes actually pass by pretty quickly, a victory of musical integrity.
I don't mean integrity in terms of the chest-beating hardcore punk 'don't sell out!' thing. Integrity in this case is an album wherein each song flows straight into the next. It's a single, 37.5 minute, entity. But not in the boring drone-doom sense. Each song is its own man, but there is still a thematic coherence lacking in pretty much all other albums nowadays. Look at some of the song titles: 'I Just Want To Go Home'; 'I Know This Is No Place For You'; 'I Know This Is All My Fault': it'd be almost emo, were the emotions here not so raw and real. This is beyond the sludge of their early material. It's emo for men, and yes it is harrowing, but sometimes you can't just look away from the painful things in life. Milk have a history of taking the piss a little, and this may just be a laugh, but I'm taking it super-seriously, because it's a work of art. The last two songs are actually utterly life-affirmingly beautiful. Melvins wish they were this good.
05. Mike Patton - Mondo Cane
Yes! When he wasn't travelling the world, making millions of dollars with the dusted-off Faith No More, Patton was actually releasing new music! And not just any old new (?) Mike Patton music, but easily the best Patton album since those two ridiculously awesome ones in 2001. You know the ones: the Tomahawk debut and the Fantômas 'sophomore effort', as Americans might say. Funnily enough, while FNM were peddling creaky 1990s nostalgia to 30-somethings, Mondo Cane was a different kind of nostalgia.
It was all 60s and 70s Italian pop songs, apparently. Well, it was all in Italian, anyway. And that was nice, because we heard Patton sing in Portuguese on 'Caralho Voador', and his label put out a magnificent Ennio Morricone compilation in 2005, so it made perfect sense - especially when you consider Mike's love of film themes, a lot of this sounding like that. So it's very poppy - really strong melodies, cool orchestration, and the insanely high standard of vocal performance to which we have become accustomed from the great man. While largely faithful (I imagine) to source, there was still some blatant Pattonism. 'Urlo Negro', for example was weirdly hardcore in its delivery of the verses, juxtposing to my endless amusement with the instant jump to one of the jauntiest choruses I have heard in my life. It was as though someone had stitched Sick Of It All together with Gael's cover of 'I Want You to Want Me'. Magnifico!
06. Warpaint - The Fool
I have actually reviewed this one, so I'll leave my banging on for that. I will just say that this is the second fantastic record this all-female band from LA have put out, and it's (just) their best. But it's not 'shoegaze' or anything like that. Closest genre would probably be post-punk, somewhat anachronistically; maybe a soft take on Riot Grrl, I dunno. Anyway, it's lovely and not very obvious, and I'm happy such a good album has got some hype. But everyone should check out Exquisite Corpse too.
07. Swans - My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky
I have also reviewed this, so yadda yadda. All you need to know, til I post the aforementioned, is this is brilliant. While all your other bands, like FNM, Soundgarden, Pixies, Godspeed You! Black Emperor and everyone else ever just reform to play gigs and make money off the weight-gaining and balding, Swans did it right in 2010. When Michael Gira brought back his legendary band, he made sure it was because there was an album good enough to justify the return.
And My Father Will Guide Me Up a Rope to the Sky was it. It's not like he'd been sitting about, counting his money in the 14 years since Swans got dead, or - worse - trying to make music but realising he sucked without his 'classic line-up' (eh, Frank Black and Chris Cornell?). Gira had spent the whole time with Angels Of Light, who sounded like a more introspective, quieter version of what Swans turned into anyway. So it only made sense that, when he did want to make some noise again, he'd bring it out as Swans. But beyond that, it sounds different from any previous Swans album. It's a new one, and sounds new. It's called 'artisic development', a concept sadly all too alien to most veteran musicians today.
08. Hayaino Daisuki - The Invincible Gate Mind Of The Infernal Fire Hell, Or Did You Mean Hawaii Daisuki?
Not really an album, at four songs and 12 minutes. It's good enough that I don't care. While Dave Chang, now the human avatar of grindcore music it seems, didn't quite get the new Gridlink album out (February 2011, apparently), he did get out the now-traditional warning shot, from the alter-ego Japanese speedfreak thrash mentalist Hayaino Daisuki. The Invincible Gate Mind Of The Infernal Fire Hell, Or Did You Mean Hawaii Daisuki? followed debut EP Headbanger's Karaoke Club Dangerous Fire in similar style: insanely fast, heavy, shouty and... well, just insane, really. And moreso than the debut.
It's the kind of thing non-metallers hate. You know that really annoying phase, around the start of last decade, when metal fans became all self-loathing, and got into 'music that non-metallers can listen to'? Isis, Pelican, and all them? "Ooh, listen to how lovely it all is. There are none of those nasty vocals or riffs or bits of iconography to turn people off. It's all very Mogwai and Sigur Ros, isn't it. Would you like a cappuccino?" No! I wouldn't. And I don't want to listen to your poxy metal that pretends it isn't metal. It was fun for a while (Isis, Neurosis, Kayo Dot and The Angelic Process did put out some fantastic examples of the form, admittedly), but then it dragged on for far too long and bored anyone with half a brain completely senseless. That's why thrash came back: a response to the utterly inert, self-important, po-faced crit-metal nonsense.
Anyway, this is the ultimate in that. Your friend who owns Takk will absolutely hate it. Good.
09. Best Coast - Crazy For You
Read what my man Adrien Begrand had to say about it. He's not as hate-filled as me. Go on, I'll still be here.
OK. Lovely, wasn't it. Now, obviously I don't like it as much as he does, but it was sufficiently summery and delightful to melt my heart. Best Coast are a bit like Vivian Girls but, though it pains me to admit it, rather better. Crazy For You is girl-pop played by a band, and it's got enough songs to rule but doesn't outstay its welcome at all. Its hooks stay in your head even though you don't intend them to, but you don't mind at all when they do. It's a very traditionally feminine sense of musical yearning performed in a more straight-forward fashion that that of, say, Warpaint. It's quality.
10. Erykah Badu - New Amerykah Part Two: Return of the Ankh
I really didn't listen to this as much as I should have done. Erykah, like her sometime musical partners in crime Sa-Ra Creative Partners, is so good that I'll listen once to her record, know it is absolutely excellent, and then not disturb it any more. And it's an absurd thing to do, because whenever a song from this record hit my ears, I was bowled over as though it was completely new to me. I really should just immerse myself in the work she and Sa-Ra have put out since 2007, because it's aesthetically cohesive, very expansive, and just brilliant. You should too!
There was other good stuff, too. It included, but was not limited to, The Secret, Dillinger Escape Plan, Nails, Autechre, Squarepusher, Jaga Jazzist, Jaguar Love, Ceremony, Pale Sketcher, Eskmo, Melvins, Flying Lotus and Joanna Newsom. And Lovers, who should totally have been somewhere in the top 10. Damn it! Not to mention the inspired and ongoing thrash metal revival of Exodus, Overkill and Death Angel. Quality albums all. I love thrash!
Then there was the stuff I didn't listen to, and wish I had (some of which I do actually own): Actress, Mt. Kimbie, Phantom Band, Venetian Snares, Cee-Lo, Janelle Monae, Ghost, Agalloch, Oneohtrix Point Never, the Shackleton Fabric thing and probably a fair bit of Fact's list.
Let's give a mention to the bands whose albums I was hoping for in 2010, but which never materialised: Gridlink, Genghis Tron, Aphex Twin, Rye Wolves and Akimbo! Get off your fat arses and give me more music!
Whose albums am I looking forward to? Well, it'd have to be Propagandhi (pleasepleaseplease), Pig Destroyer, Lady Gaga, Gridlink, Cave In, Melt-Banana, Ear Pwr, Duke Spirit... look, everyone, just surprise me, okay? And, go on, I'll issue my annual appeal to Lift To Experience. Come on, a second album ten years on from your debut would be just poetic!
Last, and very definitely least, is the most disappointing album of 2010: the Captain Ahab one. It was so disappointing that I do feel the urge to make a separate post on it, so watch out for that one. It's seriously one of the biggest drop-off albums I have ever heard in my life. For shame!

That you haven't listed the second School of Seven Bells there at all is hugely disappointing to me, and I'll be unable to agree with you about the Lift To Experience vigil now, as a result, such is my great sadness and shock.ReplyDelete
(That said, there's a Josh Pearson solo album due out this year, so that's something!)
Sorry, CUS. A friend of mine keeps banging on about School of Seven Bells, and I know I should hear them. I just haven't yet. Not unlike Bat for Lashes. I'll remedy that, just for you!ReplyDelete
And yeah, a pal on FB told me about the Josh record. Really looking forward to that, even if it's just his country stuff. Live shows of his are always a treat!
- CUS9:31 am
Heh, cheers! Bat For Lashes, meh. Do you like Kate Bush? Have you ever heard a Tori Amos album and thought "What does this remind me of?" Welcome to that same feeling all over again 2000 WEB2.0 on ACID or something. The first album is a bit more interesting, the second one I can't remember at all other than 'Daniel' despite hearing it at least three times now. It's all a bit Alisha's Attic for me.ReplyDelete
The first School of Seven Bells album is not bad, but I heard it after the second, and it sounds quite... primitive, perhaps, in comparison. Whereas the second is like some kind of collision between Cocteau Twins, Stereolab, My Bloody Valentine and the best qualities of 80s New Romantic pop. With really good lyrics and tons of texture and detail.
I've never heard Secret Machines, but The Guy in SOSB was in SM for their first couple of albums. And before that he played drums on Tripping Daisy's absolutely superb and entirely forgotten 'Jesus Hits Like The Atom Bomb'. An album so good that Tim DeLaughter spent the last decade trying to re-do it, less interestingly, as The Polyphonic Spree, and which makes me look at every Flaming Lips album since after 'Clouds Taste Metallic' and just sigh disappointedly.
My ambition this year is to get to a Josh Pearson live show. And sorry for this super-long comment, but I've got half the caffeine in all England in me right now.

The legend of Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de Leon's quest to find the Fountain of Youth is one of the most popular stories in Florida history and culture. Books, paintings, movies, and even live pageants depict old Ponce as the guy who was convinced he would find a fountain in Florida whose waters would turn back the hands of time and keep anyone who drank from it or bathed in it young. He never found the fountain, of course, or else we'd refer you to him for the full story. We can, however, tell you a bit about Ponce's exploration of Florida and the fountains of youth his journey has inspired over the years since his departure.

Spanish Cattle in Florida
There are several obvious places to look for signs of Florida's Spanish heritage. Place names like Santa Rosa Island, Cape San Blas, and Boca Raton are hard to miss. Then there's Saint Augustine, home to the Castillo de San Marcos and the nation's oldest Catholic parish.
These are great places to visit, but there's no need to travel so far to find living traces of Florida's colonial Spanish era. Often, a nearby cow pasture will do the trick.

Does type 1 diabetes affect life insurance? Short answer: yes. But if you are a type 1 diabetic, you are still an excellent candidate for life insurance. There are, however, a few factors to consider before applying for life insurance to make the process as seamless as possible.
Type 1 Diabetes and Life Insurance: Why Insurers Hesitate to Issue Policies
Any type of diabetes can easily spiral out of control if those diagnosed aren't proactive in caring for themselves. Those affected must be consistently tracking their insulin and making the commitment to a long-term healthy lifestyle. If steps aren't taken to control the disease early and often, the consequences could include heart problems, kidney failure, loss of limbs, blindness and death. To that end, an estimated 65 percent of people with diabetes will die of a heart attack or stroke.
Insurance companies know this, and it's why many consider a type 1 diabetic for life insurance a greater risk than the average person. For that reason, depending on when you were diagnosed and the current state of your health, you could be looking at higher rates than those with type 2 diabetes.
A life insurance primer for type 1 diabetics
The biggest difference between a type 1 diabetic and a non-diabetic looking for life insurance lies in the details. Underwriters spend extra time digging through your medical history because of your added risk. Before you apply, knowing what types of insurance are available and how your premiums are determined will help you be more prepared for both the application process and the questions from the carrier.
Term, Permanent or Other: Your Best Choice for Life Insurance as a Type 1 Diabetic
The first choice you'll need to make is the type of insurance you want to invest in: term or permanent. Term life insurance is the more flexible of the two. With term, you pick the length of time you are covered and your deductible stays flat for the length of the plan. Permanent life insurance, on the other hand, offers coverage for life. Depending on the type of permanent plan you choose, premiums could remain level but will still be higher than those offered for term.
In general, term life insurance premiums are cheaper than permanent. For type 1 diabetics, term is going to be a better option because of the significantly lower premiums and added flexibility of coverage.
There is alway a third option: a guaranteed-issue policy. The advantages of this choice are that you don't have to submit a medical exam along with your claim and it will be issued immediately. The downside? Insurers assume you are a high-risk candidate and, as a result, you'll be charged a much higher premium.
Your Life Insurance Class Designation Explained
Like all other applicants, people with type 1 diabetes looking for life insurance will be assigned a classification that determines their risk level and the premium they'll pay as a result. The six major ratings are preferred select or preferred; standard plus or standard; preferred smoker or standard smoker.
National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (2010) CG CG 95 Chest pain of recent onset: assessment and diagnosis of recent chest pain or discomfort of suspected cardiac origin. London: NICE. Available from www.nice.org.uk/CG95.
What Insurers are Looking for When Considering a Type 1 Diabetic
How does your class designation and the type of insurance tie into your options as a type 1 diabetic? Well, you already know that term policies are going to be more budget friendly than permanent ones, and you have a good idea of your risk level from the insurer's eyes. But the information above should let you know one other, very important fact: though it can be difficult to get a favorable rate price for life insurance with type 1 diabetes, it's not at all impossible.
Preparing for your life insurance application
Life insurance companies are looking for diabetics who have control over their diagnosis. They want to know when you were diagnosed, what specifically the diagnosis was, and the age of diagnosis. Be prepared to provide:
The overall course of the disease. Have answers to these questions:
- Where there any complications along the way?
- If so, what were they and how often did they happen?
- What was the treatment?
- What was the result?
- How is your health now?
- What is the likelihood of this happening again?
- Your history of glucose control
- This includes average blood sugar and HbA1c levels
- Compliance with medical advice
- Are you on insulin? Are you taking it as prescribed?
- Are you on any other medications? What are they and how long have you been taking them?
Have doctors prescribed a diet or exercise plan to deal with weight issues? Are you follow those instructions?
- Whether you are a tobacco user
In general, A1C levels below 6, superb medical documentation, and a proof of working diet regime can get you a standard plus rate with certain carriers.
High Blood Pressure That's Not Under Control
If you are an insulin dependent diabetic, getting a term life insurance might be more challenging. You should inquire with your broker on the best course of action.
Your broker will help you prepare a cover letter to show the insurer that you are and always have been proactive when it comes to your health. Diabetics may not get life insurance if they have other health conditions like coronary heart disease, are smokers, are obese or have uncontrolled high blood pressure. Talk with your broker on the best course of action. If you have your diabetes under control you might be able to obtain more favorable rates.
Working with the right life insurance broker can make all the difference. He will help you pick insurance carriers that specialize in high risk or specialized factors. Type 1 diabetes falls under that umbrella. Bottom line: when you are preparing your application for life insurance, be honest with your broker on the state of your health and leave no stone unturned. The insurance company will review your medical records and if they find out that you intentionally omitted essential information concerning your health situation, they might drop you. In some cases it might void your policy. In any case it pays off to be truthful on your application. The more detailed information the company has on your condition, the more informed decision they can make.
Finding life insurance when you are type 1 diabetic is a challenging but doable process.

"When we begin to set boundaries with people we love, a really hard thing happens: they hurt. They may feel a hole where you used to plug up their aloneness, their disorganization, or their financial irresponsibility. Whatever it is, they will feel a loss. If you love them, this will be difficult for you to watch. But, when you are dealing with someone who is hurting, remember that your boundaries are both necessary for you and helpful for them. If you have been enabling them to be irresponsible, your limit setting may nudge them toward responsibility." ~ Henry Cloud, Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No
I have a friend, JC, who is constantly in financial trouble. The thing about financial problems is that they have a domino effect. For her, it all started when she erred in the amount of exemptions she was claiming on her income taxes. She was not aware of the repercussions until she was hit one year with an exorbitant tax liability. It was a liability so heavy that she had to borrow money to get herself out of the financial hole. From whom did she borrow money? Me, of course, and our friend, M.
She managed to pay back the monies she owed to us, but then she got herself into another hole. In her defense, she is the only breadwinner in a family full of deadbeats who somehow manage to get pregnant every year, and so she supports her family members, along with their poor offspring. Feeling sorry for her at the time, I lent her ten thousand dollars by taking out a cash advance on my credit card, as well as fifteen hundred cash from my own personal savings. Again, she was able topay me back, albeit after two years, but she only paid back the principal amount, and left me with the interest amount, which I have been paying every month, and the fifteen hundred to eat and never see again.
Now, she is once again in another black hole. The biggest hole yet. Eviction proceedings have been instituted against her, and she must come up with about ten thousand dollars within thirty days or she will be evicted. She came crying to me the other day asking me for help. I feel sick about her situation, but I also feel angry. I am angry that she gets herself in these situations, and then turns around and expects me and M to fish her out of her drowning waters. She came to me to ask if I could pitch in and help her. She was very close to having the full ten thousand, having borrowed another four thousand from M, and she wanted to know if I could come up with the rest.
I told her that I would lend her another two thousand dollars, but it did not come without a tongue lashing. I feel angry that I felt as though I had to say yes, lest she be evicted. I feel very put on the spot. If I say no, she will get evicted, making me a terrible person. If I say yes, it will be a never-ending cycle of M and I bailing her out from her financial ruin.

Changing the Face of Hospital Food in Virginia
photo: Sara Novak
When I saw this story I couldn't help the huge grin that appeared on my face. I was born and raised in Charlottesville, Va so a story such as this in my small hometown lightens my heart. While hospital food certainly has a bad reputation, and in many cases, it's deserved, the University Health System at the University of Virginia is taking steps to change all that thanks to Local Food Hub.University Health Systems at the University of Virginia is taking steps to change the face of hospital foods, both for patients and in the dining areas of the hospital. With the help of Local Food Hub, the hospital is having more and more produce shipped in from area farms. It's only a start from my perspective, but a strong one at that. Green peppers, squash, apples, tomatoes, broccoli, pears, and other seasonal produce are shipped into the hospital each week.
Purchasing Manager Dale Haskins is taking pains to seek out the good stuff both for patients, employees, and visitors but he couldn't do it without Local Food Hub, a non-profit that provides the infrastructure that makes it possible for small central Virginia farmers to sell their produce to large entities like the hospital.
This is a great example for hospitals across the country to follow. After all, as Local Food Hub says," Isn't it ironic that in the very place you go to get well, the food they serve could be so very bad?"

An excerpt from
Temple Builders: The High Calling
scripture God sets forth a pattern of threes. . .The number three is important.
22:20 Have not I written to thee excellent things in
counsels and knowledge. (KJV)
Strong's concordance
says, "Excellent: a triple, a three-fold measure, as
a musical instrument with three strings."
God hides
threes all over the Bible. Sometimes, when used, God
is saying, "I am bearing witness to truth," a truth
such as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, or the Way,
and the Truth, and the Life, or Prophet, Priest, and
King. These threes are complete and perfect!
Sometimes God is showing threes to represent a
three-fold progression of maturity, such as
thirty-fold, sixty-fold, hundred-fold, or the
tabernacle's Outer Court, Holy Place, and Holy of
Holies, or the Feast of Unleavened Bread (Passover),
Feast of Weeks (Pentecost), and Feast of Ingathering

The tabernacle in the wilderness, also called "The

these 3-fold truths. Obviously we see this in the

Midwest Rubber News
Success Story: Dip coated wheel chocks
For years, Midwest Rubber Company has collaborated with customers to develop solutions for a variety of challenges that could be rather complex. Occasionally, we find ourselves working to solve problems that are not as complex, but still have significant consequences. This was certainly the case with a solution we developed for the automotive industry using our proprietary dip coating process.
The problem: Our customer was using railcars to ship vehicles across the country. The vehicles are often stacked five rows high, and are held into place by wheel chocks. Our customer's challenge arose when workers were carrying the wheel chocks on top of the railcars, in order to drop them into their proper positions around the vehicles. Because of the tight space, and despite the workers' diligent efforts to avoid it, the chocks were sometimes bumping against the cars, scratching the paint finishes.
Our solution: Our engineers set to work to develop an automotive rubber solution that would fix the customer's problem as efficiently as possible. The wheel chocks required a coating that was soft but firm, and textured to prevent slipping. We developed an elastomer coating for the main bracket frame that met these requirements and adhered well to the steel beneath. The dip coated wheel chocks did not scratch the cars and could be dropped precisely into position at the wheels. The dip coated wheel chocks did more than keep some pretty paint from being scratched. They also allowed our customer to continue to use railway shipping, a more cost-effective and environmentally responsible way to transport their vehicles across the country.
Are you struggling to find a permanent fix for a longstanding manufacturing challenge? We have had great success in this area and would love to work with you to develop a solution that not only addresses the immediate problem, but carries a positive impact through to other areas of your business!
Why Midwest Rubber?
We can promise that our products perform better and longer than our competition. How? We test each and every design in-house, making sure it can withstand daily wear and tear for years to come. We will also assist in the design process when needed, providing guidance so you receive the best solution possible. Quantifying and testing our solutions ensures that our customers are guaranteed the best results.Durability

It isnt hard. And actually, this should be commandment number one, except for the the fact that the birthday thing is both most important Right Now, and also universal. But this one is the most important all the rest of the time – and oh my lord, it makes me grumpy
Commandment the Second
Though shalt not eat ANYTHING loud near me. Mainly, although not exclusively, apples. Seriously, people.
I dont know why it is – but it drives me insane. I seem to hear things fifty times louder than other people. Its ridiculous. Someone takes the first bite of their mid-morning fruit half way across the floor, and my ears prick up, I sit up in my seat like a meercat, blue eyes, poking lasers into the back of their thick little apple-eating necks.
Oh! I forgot! Do you mind?
They say.
Nonono I say, Carry on. Dont let me stop you. Its my silly problem, I just have to get over it. Carry on.
And then I sit there. Comically, hideously, physically affected by the noise, eyes crossing, clinging onto the desk edge with my fingernails, making little mini-racehorse noises (believe me, it makes sense in person; Ive just sat here for five minutes imagining someone was eating an apple in front of me and trying to work out how best to describe the resulting noise) and kind of wishing the building would suddenly list to one side and theyd roll on their rolly chairs straight out of the damn window.
The thing is – of course they should eat their bloody apple/carrot/bottomless bag of crisps; it IS my stupid problem, and I should just learn to deal, and getthefuck over it. Hell, I eat at my desk, why shouldnt they. No, of course they should, logically, and there should be no problem with it. I mean, Im sure I do plenty that drives them nuts.
Ive got to the point now where I turn down meetings over lunch because, in a crowded restaurant or canteen, I can stare as hard as I want at whoever Im talking to about whatever the exciting project is, but all I can hear is the sound of a hundred people talking, and cutlery crashing and I cant concentrate on a word that they say, let alone thinking of any of my own to add.
On buses, I send my beloved into fits of laughter. Hell be talking to me about something exciting, and scintilating, like the fact that were suddenly moving house in about three weeks and neither of us can quite work out how that happened, and hell notice that Ive gone a bit quiet and
WOAH! Ive just looked down at my elbow, the inside of my elbow (my inbow?) where they took the tiny little bit of blood today and my goodness thats a bruise and a half. Blimey, Id make a an appalling heroin addict. Id be all hurty and purple and polka dottish, all the time. Well thats something to bear in mind. Where was I?
and look at me, and hell have to clasp a hand to his mouth to smother the snuffle, because someone, somewhere, generally in the seat right in front of me, is eating an apple, and Im looking at them, unabashed, and completely unintentionally, with this mixture of absolute repulsion and disbelief.
He says he can see a thought bubble coming out of my head, saying, in spiky writing Why are you doing that? Why are you doing that HERE? Dont you KNOW what noise you are making? Are you mad? Are you stupid?, until I cave in and have to put my earphones in, no matter how unsociable that might be. Hell, I can lipread well enough. And he seems to be able to read my mind – so whats the difference?
Ive had this for years. And Ive met other people who have it too, honest I have. Really. And I know it sounds extreme, but believe me, it hurts – well not hurts hurts. But it really, really puts me on edge. And I hate, hate, hate, hate HATE it.
Oh thou shalt not eat loud things around me. Especially, but not exclusively, apples. Seriously, people. Or Ill come over there and kick you in the knees.

Nokia has announced their interim report Q1 2013, involving their products and services indicate that despite the pressures from competitors' they still manage profitability.
Commenting on the outcomes, Stephen Elop, Nokia Chief Executive Officer, stated
"At the highest level, we are pleased that Nokia Group achieved underlying operating profitability for the third quarter in a row. While operating in a highly competitive environment, Nokia is executing our strategy with urgency and managing our costs very well.
We have areas where we are making progress, and areas where we are further increasing the focus. For example, people are responding positively to the Lumia portfolio, and our volumes are increasing quarter over quarter. Nokia Siemens Networks delivered another strong quarter and contributed to an overall improvement in Nokia Group's cash position. On the other hand, our Mobile Phones business faces a difficult competitive environment, and we are taking tactical actions and bringing new innovation to market to address our challenges.
All of these efforts are aimed at improving our financial performance and delivering more value to our shareholders."
Nokia desires its Products & Services non-IFRS operating margin within the 2nd quarter 2013 to be roughly unfavorable 2 %, negative or positive 4 percentage points. This perspective is dependent on Nokia's anticipation relating to several aspects, such as:
Competitive business dynamics carrying on in a wrong way have an effect on the Cell phones as well as Smart Gadgets business units;
- Buyer demand for the solutions, specifically for their Cellphones solutions;
- Ongoing ramp up for their Lumia Smartphone's;
- Anticipated boosts in Products & Services' operating costs; as well as
- The macroeconomic surroundings

The United States has not supplied weapons to the Syrian Kurdish militia YPG, the State Department said on Friday, after Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan said U.S.-supplied weapons were used by the group that Ankara blames for a deadly suicide bombing.
"We have not provided any weapons of any kind to the YPG and we have also seen no evidence to substantiate the claim that the YPG is somehow smuggling U.S. weapons to the PKK," spokesman Mark Toner said in response to Erdogan's comments.
There are reports a plenty here at the blog on weapons dropped to YPG/PKK
There are reports a plenty here at the blog regarding airstrikes done, by the US, on behalf of YPG
Since YPG = PKK it's a given weapons are being transferred between the two groups
Wow, that's a whopper!
Two previous posts on the topic!
US Airdrops Weapons to Kurdish Militias in Northern Syria: Kurds & War Crimes!
U.S. Airdrop in Syria Ends Up Arming the Kurds"American and Kurdish officials and Syrian Arab opposition leaders told us this week that ammunition said to have been for the Syrian Arab Coalition, a newly announced group of Sunni Arab brigades in northeastern Syria, had largely ended up arming the Kurdish Democratic Union Party and its associated military forces, known as the People's Protection Units or YPG. That will aid the Kurds in fighting the Islamic State and cementing their control of Kurdish territory"

From prospects, clients, vendors, employees and alike, efficiently following up is key to your business. For some people following up is second nature because they are extremely organized. For others, like me, following up can be difficult.
Here are some techniques you can use to improve your follow up. Implementing these will have an immediate impact on your sales, employee retention, productivity, and stress level.
Calendar everything: From posting on social media to lunch breaks, put everything on your calendar. We typically put the obvious tasks on our calendar like meetings and project due dates, but we miss carving out time in our day to do all the other things that need to get done. When you put it on your calendar, you are also creating a task list of things that need to get done. Consider that a bonus of this activity.
Chicago Business
Check your calendar every morning: Before you open your email, or even think about sending a text, stop and look at your calendar. If you get into the habit of first checking your calendar every morning you will start your day knowing what activities need to be completed.
Learn to say "no": It is so easy to say "yes", and so difficult to deliver on everything we commit to. Get into the habit of saying "no" first. Really you are giving yourself a moment to think before you commit to something. The result is you will have less to do and more focus on the tasks you have committed to. This makes your ability to follow through a lot easier.
Set better expectations: Avoid using vague terms to set expectations for what you are going to accomplish. Instead of saying "early next week", look at your calendar, and say "Tuesday by 3:30 p.m." Build padding into your expectations. If you could complete the task by tomorrow at noon, give yourself until 5 p.m. or even the next day. This will help you complete tasks on time while allowing you to over deliver on your promises with occasional early delivery.
Create a central location for tasks: There are lots of people that have Post-It notes of tasks and note pads of to-dos while using their outlook calendar for meetings. Bringing everything into one central location will help you avoid missing items and get a realistic perspective on how much time you have in your schedule.
When you improve your follow through, you improve your business.

For Starters: it's better to wait until the plant is dormant. If you live in an area with a more moderate climate where the weather rarely reaches sub zero tempers, the plant might not ever become dorment. In this case winter months to learn how to prune roses.

Public Service Broadcasting released 'Inform – Educate – Entertain' on May 6th, 2013 on Test Card Recordings. Taking in archive material from the BFI and StudioCanal along with classic American public information films, the album sees the corduroy-clad J. Willgoose, Esq. and his faithful drumming companion, Wrigglesworth, seeking to fulfil their mission statement over a wide range of subject matter and styles. Through both the record and their uniquely spell-binding live audio-visual 'Transmissions', audiences will witness the band weave samples from these films around live drums, guitar, banjo and electronics, creating an array of diverse tracks. What emerges is, by turns, thrilling, moving, funny and powerful; or, if you will, informative, educational and – most of all – entertaining.

What I discovered, as expected, I can create a clickable caption for the photo. All you have to do is to add the caption just before the  tag in the HTML created. If you want it centered, then just surround the text (caption) with the  and  tags. To see it done, surf over to this post Testing img tag created via the Blogger classic photo upload button in the post editor (close new window to get back to this page).

15 Internet Marketing Stats of 2013
Thursday, December 12, 2013
Creating a unique and compelling content marketing campaign is becoming increasingly important for modern brands that hope to distinguish themselves. With social media, high-speed Internet and mobile devices reaching a larger audience all the time, we're witnessing a paradigm shift in the way that products and services are marketed.
Below are 15 marketing statistics from the past year. Some might surprise you, while others might be familiar from previous years
1. The outsourcing of content marketing is becoming increasingly common: 62% of companies now take part in the practice, which represents a 7% increase from last year.
2. The amount of money spent on online content marketing accounts for more than one quarter of the average marketing budget.
3. 72% of shoppers now trust reviews posted online at least as much as they trust personal recommendations from friends and family.
4. It's now estimated that about 44% of online shoppers use a search engine to begin the shopping process.
5. When it comes to the frequency of posting, marketers see diminishing returns: a brand that posts twice per day receives only 57% as many Likes as it would have if they posted only once per day.
6. It is estimated that by the year 2016, more than half of all the money spent in the retail sector will have been influenced by the web in one way or another.
7. Over the course of the average week, fewer than 0.5% of Facebook users will actively engage with their favorite brands. This handily confirms how important it is for brands to provide the right kinds of content to their audience.
8. 20% of Facebook users have reported purchasing a product or service after seeing an ad or comment about it on the site. Facebook's targeted ads have gotten a lot of hate, but their success rate continues to climb.
9. The average company only responds to about 30% of feedback provided by fans using social media. This is more than a little bit dispiriting, considering that social media is meant to be a conversation rather than a one-way street.
10. 91% of adult Internet users report using social media websites on a regular basis. In other words, it's become a nearly inextricable part of our culture.
11. Blogs provide the average brand's website with 97% more indexed links and a stunning 434% more indexed pages. If you don't have a blog yet, now is the time.
12. Smartphones now account for more and more online shopping: 64% of smartphone owners now use mobile devices to make purchases online.
13. In an average month, YouTube users watch a total of about three billion hours of video. This confirms how useful it can be for brands to turn their Channels into a destination.
14. Of all smartphone users, 73% report using apps at least once per day to access their favorite social media sites.
15. Of all the accounts on social media websites, approximately 40% of them are spam.

Popsugar sent me a Must Have Box this month and it was full of amazing fashion, beauty and food related products. I am pretty excited to share with you what my favorite items were from this month's box were and what I still need to try.
Jack and Lucy adjustable wide brim hat
Flint retractable lint roller
GFB dark chocolate coconut bites
NCLA mani E.R. kit
Briogeo deep conditioning mask
Smith & Cult lip lacquer
Flint retractable lint roller
GFB dark chocolate coconut bites
NCLA mani E.R. kit
Briogeo deep conditioning mask
Smith & Cult lip lacquer
Right off the bat, I was stoked to see the black wide brim hat from Jack and Lucy. It is adjustable and is in a classic color. I have had an obsession with hats as of late and this one is going to get plenty of wear this fall.
I was excited to try the Smith & Cult lip lacquer in the shade The Warning. It applied smoothly and had a nice pigment. I felt very put together with the Flint lint roller, especially because I had been in the market for a new lint roller. My last one ran out of sheets and I was not sure if I should repurchase it or look for something else, so this came at a good time.
The Gluten Free Bites (GFB) are not exactly new to me. I've tasted similar bites at work thanks to one of my coworkers, but I was not wowed by them. The dark chocolate coconut bites flavor was delicious and one I could definitely see myself buying again along with chocolate cherry.
Ive had the NCLA Mani-ER kit in my purse ready to use in case I need to touch up my nails, but I have not needed it so far. I love the packaging and it comes with all the essentials to keep your nails nicely manicured.
I have not tried the Briogeo deep conditioning mask, but it is my plan to use it over the weekend. I recently had a hair cut to keep my hair healthy, but this may be what I need to help me feel like my hair is refreshed.
It had been a while since I had a box delivered to my door, but I am so glad I restarted my subscription because this month's box really spoke to me. If you are interested in next month's box and are new to the service, sign up and use code SHOP5 for $5 off when you sign up here:
If you received the September Must Have Box, let me know! I'd love to hear what your favorite item was.

I've been up to quite a lot lately, and as always, I thought that I would bring you along for the ride.

The Tongva are known in 'Mainland Serrano' as a fellow Serrano clan, the Pipimarra'yam.
Mainland Serrano also refer to the Tongva as the Havakam. Havakam can be translated several different ways. In the Pipimarra'yam dialect, Havakam means the 'beautiful people.' In Muhanyam Serrano (a dialect far more inland) it means 'those who are covered.' This latter meaning probably refers to the more ornate clothing of the coastal clans.
We are now conducting linguistic research in Tongva to develop a strong foundation for revitalization efforts in this language.

Overcoming the injustice of sex crime accusations is our Passion and our Craft
"His only crime is sacrificing himself to defend those who are falsely accused".
From Diablo Magazine about Patrick Clancy, The Founder of the Innocence Legal Team
"Patrick Clancy, Founder of the Innocence Legal Team, is among the top five child molestation defense trial attorneys in the United States.
We jointly created State Bar of California approved continuing education courses covering all issues in child molestation. Defense have taught hundreds of attorneys in the techniques of defending these cases. I was his expert witness in a case that NBC filmed for three weeks and made into a television special. We have also worked on child molestation cases as attorneys together. I know of no one that has tried and won more child molestation defenses." Demosthenes Lorandos, PhD in Psychology, Doctorate in Law, Licensed in New York, Washington, D.C., Michigan, and California. Noted author/co-author of "Cross Examining Experts in the Behavioral Sciences", "The International Handbook of Parental Alienation Syndrome", "Parental Alienation - Handbook for Mental Health and Legal Professionals" and "Benchbook in the Behavioral Sciences"
Our Team of experts is exclusively dedicated to defending against sex crime allegations
We defend you when the odds are stacked against you
Innocence legal team gets judge to rule that 14 multiple life sentences for rubbing boys chests was cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the U.S. Constitution.
Defendant was originally facing 150 counts and 3500 years plus life potential sentence.
"The 12-year sentence is described by his defense attorney, Patrick Clancy as "rare" since it's much more lenient than the 25 years to life that is required by statute as the minimum sentence.
"It's not every day you can get a judge to hold that the statutory sentence is cruel and unusual"Clancy (News-Gazette 4/1/2015)

A Local Attorney or An Expert in the field?
Focus on what matters!
Does hiring a local attorney give you an advantage with your case?
A Life Saved
"I am a teacher and Patrick Clancy successfully defended me against allegations by eight of my elementary school pupils. First, I hired the best local criminal law attorney in Stockton,
California. For the next year, he made promises of how he was going to help me. On the day of trial, my local attorney put me under extreme pressure to take a deal to one felony count of child molestation with a maximum of one year in the county jail. I was told that I couldn't win against eight accusers and would spend the rest of my life in prison. I took the deal even though I was innocent.
Before I was sentenced I went to see Patrick Clancy, an expert in child molestation allegation defenses. In fifteen minutes he laid out the strategy to win the case. He called what had happened to me "group hysteria". My case had the same issues as the famous "McMartin" case. It took 18 months to win withdrawing of the plea that I had entered and another year to win the trial. Patrick Clancy saved my life and my career. He is truly the best. I learned it was more important to have an expert lawyer in child molestation defense than the best local criminal law attorney."One of the Innocence Legal Team Clients evaluations on AVVO
Mistakes today have consequences in the future
Too many times we have to repair the damage caused by a prior attorney
I was falsely accused of child molest and faced multiple lifetime sentence charges. Mr. Clancy was the 3rd attorney I hired for the case because the first 2 were not experts in the field
and could not handle my case well. Mr. Clancy is extremely knowledgeable about this specific field of law. He communicated with me often and helped me to make informed decisions. The case was brought to trial. He did an amazing job of defending me and wining back my freedom with Not Guilty Verdict on all counts.HS Project Manager, High Tech Firm in Silicon Valley Martindale.com

- Child Sexual Abuse Allegations
- Child Pornography Allegations
- Child Physical Abuse Allegations
- Defense from Rape Allegations
- Defense from Internet Sting Allegations
- Appeals From Sex Crime Convictions
- Clean Your Records
Not Guilty Verdict on all 16 counts of Child Molest Charges, each carried a sentence of 15 or 25 years to Life. In 2013, I was falsely accused of child molest and the overly zealous DA office filed 16 charges on me. Each count carried a 15 or 25 years to life sentence.
At first I was in denial and thought since I did not do anything wrong, these charges would just go away. Wow, was I wrong! The DA did not do any real investigation and focused their efforts in working with the accusers to convict me. Due to the social stigma regarding these allegations, the rule "Innocent until proven guilty" goes out the window. I realized I was in deep trouble and needed a real expert on this type of allegations to win back my freedom.
Through extensive researches and books, I found Mr. Clancy whose firm is the only one that specializes in Sex Crime Allegation Defense and has been doing nothing else but that for almost 40 years. He and his team listened to me carefully to understand my case and took necessary immediate actions to avoid further damage. He then expertly developed a strategy on how to win my case and diligently carried it out with his team step by step.
His confident demeanor and special talent in connecting and building rapport with the Judge and Jurors in the court room ultimately resulted in my Not Guilty verdict on all 16 charges. Thank you, Mr. Clancy, for fighting hard for my freedom and dignity.HL Bay Area High Tech
Our Winning System
This system was developed by Patrick Clancy, Founder and Chief Strategist of the Innocence Legal Team.
Mr. Clancy has dedicated himself to providing unparalleled legal representation to the wrongfully accused as well as developing a technologically based model of 'best practices' for handling complex and difficult litigation. I recommend his work unhesitatingly.Alex Henderson, Criminal Defense Attorney, San Francisco
When do I call an attorney?
You should call an attorney as soon as you become aware that you are a target of an investigation.
Sex abuse cases are the most difficult cases to defend because society's abhorrence of these crimes and the consequential rush to judgment. Mr. Clancy is one of the best lawyers you could have at your side, should you be falsely accused of this type of crime. I've attended his seminars and accessed his information that he provides freely on his website. For these reasons, I wholeheartedly endorse him as a fighter who must overcome almost insurmountable odds.Markus Dombois, Criminal Defense Attorney

I kept saying out loud, "I want ten Ipads"....first a parent purchased one and the difference to my student was remarkable. He went from a child who could barely sit for five minutes to being engaged in writing, reading and spelling for more than forty minutes. The parents were so enthusiastic and saw remarkable differences at home. The school began to see the differences as well and the Principal started to talk about what the future might hold if the school were to introduce Ipads into the school.
From that discussion, they purchased ten for my classroom and I was given permission to trial using Ipads within the classroom in all curriculum areas. From the very first day, my students were incredibly excited...we do reading, writing, spelling and creating; we also do counting, math etc....and what was extraordinary, within the first week kids who had reputations as kids who roamed the classroom, refused to work, struggled with handwriting etc were sitting at their tables completely engrossed in the various applications and learning at the same time.
By week three, other teachers started asking about how effective the IPads were and the other students were asking why their grades didn't have them too. Astoundingly, the school made a decision to buy an IPad for each student....so my dream of ten went to 60 in three weeks.
Ok, so it is a piece of technology, but my passion emerged from my belief that all children can learn and achieve success. I've taught in many many special schools and I've observed teachers still trying to teach children who have fine motor issues to write in year 7, 8, 9....not their fault, it is what they are required to do....but why do we insist on focusing on what these kids can't do? We must give them success because when we do, they can learn and when they do learn, they feel great about themselves and the cycle continues....in a nutshell, let's focus on what these children can achieve.
The beauty of the IPad for children with autism is that the children can interact with the machinery in a very tactile way; the graphics are engaging and extremely appealing; it responds to many of the senses; and as the teacher I can sit along side the student, or in front of them and there is a not a big screen in the way.....the other brilliant thing about this technology is that the students become directors of their own learning.
I am working on a list of applications and how they relate to the curriculum and hope to have that available soon. I will post it on this website when I do.
Parents, educators please consider this technology for your child.....and allow your child to learn by focusing on their talents and what they can do. Please send me an email if you want any more info.

Land owners had moved the HC, pleading that a provision to acquire land should lapse if the government fails to do so in five years. The Land Acquisition Act 2013 allows the acquisition process to lapse if government fails to take possession or pay compensation within five years. Under the MRTP Act, the state has 10 years to acquire the land once it is reserved in the final plan, for a specific public purpose, for instance, a garden, school or a bus depot, failing which the acquisition will lapse. The Act also says that the process has to be completed within ten years, failing which it will lapse.
Under the Land Acquisition Act, the time limit is five years for government to complete the land acquisition. Land owners said this provision should be extended even for MRTP Act acquisitions. Both laws govern land acquisition for public purposes.
Holding that the Maharashtra Region and Town Planning Act (MRTP) is a "complete code in itself'', provisions of a 2013 Land Acquisition Act cannot be made applicable to it, the HC said. But the question that fell before a three-judge full bench of Chief Justice Manjula Chellur and Justices Nitin Jamdar and Girish Kulkarni was whether the 2013 Act provision on lapsing should be extended to MRTP Act. The order implies that the state need not restart land acquisition process in case of a delay, which will be a costly affair as market rate would have to be paid to the land owners.
The HC had appointed two senior counsel Aspi Chinoy and Janak Dwarkadas to assist with the legal points. They cited an SC judgment to say that the lapsing provision can't apply under MRTP since the law is for public planning of land use and if such reserved land is allowed to lapse earlier than permitted, the planning would be defeated. The 2011 SC ruling after a detailed analysis of both laws concluded that MRTP Act and its provisions was a self-contained code.
"While carrying out planned development, a balance has to be achieved between individual rights and larger good of the society," said the HC.
Advocate general Ashutosh Kumbhakoni said the 2013 Act also requires a social impact assessment before acquisition.

If you're looking to add an eye¬catching focal point to your outdoor living space this spring, then this garden tower is sure to fit the bill. Made from inexpensive, durable and great-looking dimensional cedar boards, the design is guaranteed to gain the atten¬tion of your friends and neighbors.
At first glance, this "yard art" is remi-niscent of a famous, much larger structure that belongs to our French friends across the pond. Though its design shares a few similarities with that tower in Paris, it won't take nearly as long to build (thank¬fully). The handy woodworker should be able to handle this one over the course of a few weekends.
That's not to say this project isn't a bit challenging, however. One look at all those angles, and you may wonder if you can handle it. But don't worry, you won't have to brush up on your geometry be¬fore you begin. The editors of Woodsmith, our sister publication and project partner, have come up with a "cut to fit" method of building the tower that simplifies things a lot. We'll show you the highlights of the project here, then direct you where you can go to download the complete set of plans (including easy-to-follow tips and templates) for FREE!
So give this month's project a try. Grace your log home's landscape with "The Garden Tower."

In the article the research results of defect layers formation on surface of high-speed sliding bearings made of new high-alloy composite materials from tool steels wastes and intended for printing machines have been presented. Such quality parameters of surface like cold-work strengthening and distortions of the 2-nd type are supplied by the result of interaction between force and temperature fields appearing on the top of diamond grain at fine diamond grinding of friction surfaces of sliding bearings were shown.
The Study of the Structure of Laminar Currents in Recirculating Channels with Developed Surface
In order to research influence of parameters of the developed surface on structure of a laminar current of viscous incompressible liquid in ring channels the computing model, and algorithm of creation of profiles of speed has been offered. This case deals with a homogeneous layer of obstacles – cylindrical protrusions, distance between which ensures the absence of hydrodynamics interactions. Numerical calculations allowed analyzing dependence of the maximum and average speeds of a stream from density of ledges on a surface of the channel and from their height.
Formation of Structure and Phase Composition in Ecviatomic Alloys of Cu–Ni–Al–Fе–Cr System Synthesized by Mechanical Alloying
Nanocrystalline equiatomic high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have been synthesized by mechanical alloying in Cu–Ni–Al–Fе–Cr system from the binary CuNi alloy to the quinary CuNiAlFeCr alloy. By using X-ray diffraction analysis structure and phase evolution during mechanical alloying (MA) in binary to quinary alloys selected from Cu, Ni, Al, Fe и Cr in sequence were investigated. Binary CuNi alloy formed solid solution with face-centered cubic crystal structure in nanocrystalline state.

As I wrote in My languages & multilingual journey, part 2, my language journey over this past year is quite varied, and requires me to split the story into two posts. Herein lies the second part to the story of how I came to study 20 languages simultaneously.
At the end of July I was still focusing on 8 languages – French, Spanish, Portuguese, Tamil, German, Japanese, Norwegian, and Tagalog. At the same time, I was becoming more active on UniLang (UL).
