"We ordered this card for our son's baptism and, even though we already expected them to be nice, were pleasantly surprised when were even more beautiful than anticipated. We will definitely continue using Tiny Prints in the near future because: - our invitations were delivered earlier than the estimated delivery time - our specifications were met - we got what we asked for - the cards and printed envelopes exceeded our expectations - the quality of the paper and printing was exquisite"
"Loved the way the invitation came out. Received many compliments on them. Printed return and addressee option made my life SO much easier!"
"This card was the perfect template for my son's baptism invitations. This card had a place to put a photo, we used one of the pictures from his newborn photo shoot and it went perfectly with the colors and layout of the invitation. The quality of the paper was a very heavy card stock and the print quality was top notch. I've received nothing but compliments from everyone who has received the invitation."
"We received so many compliments on this invitation. It was for our son's Holy Communion. Everyone loved the front and back design of the card."

The threat of smallpox resulting from bioterrorism has prompted a reassessment of the current population's level of immunity. A recent study by researchers in the NIA's Intramural Research Program [1] shows that older adults who either had smallpox as children or were vaccinated years ago remain immune to the disease and would be unlikely to benefit from new vaccinations.
Given the limited supply of smallpox vaccine in the United States, it makes sense to immunize people most at risk in the event of smallpox exposure, researchers wrote in the American Journal of Medicine. That population includes individuals born after 1972—about the time when routine smallpox vaccination ended in the United States—but not many older adults, they concluded in a study of 246 participants from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging [2].
Older adults who were vaccinated at least once appear to remain immune, according to an analysis of more than 800 serum samples that had been stored for 13 to 88 years after vaccination. The researchers, led by Drs. Dan Longo and Dennis Taub, determined that levels of vaccine-specific antibody titers and neutralizing antibodies remained high enough to indicate continued immunity in 209 individuals who had been vaccinated, based on the comparable levels of their antibodies and those of 8 participants who had had smallpox as children. It is known that survivors of smallpox have lifelong immunity to it. Multiple vaccinations conferred only marginally higher protection than a single one.

Wayne Law Announces Establishment of Public Interest Law Fellowships
DETROIT (Feb. 27, 2009) – Wayne State University Law School is pleased to announce the establishment of Public Interest Law Fellowships in an effort to allow students additional opportunities to gain practical experience before graduation, ease financial stress and offer needed assistance to organizations providing legal services to underserved constituencies, reinforcing Wayne State University's public service mission.
Approximately $60,000 in total fellowships will be awarded to current Wayne Law students who will hold public interest jobs during the summer of 2009. Awards will be made in the form of scholarships or loan repayment, depending on the student's circumstances.
"We were fortunate to be able to locate funds for these fellowships this year, and hope that we are in a position to continue funding in the future," said Wayne Law Dean Robert M. Ackerman. "In this time of economic difficulty, it is especially important that we help worthy organizations to provide legal assistance to underserved constituencies. At the same time, we can provide worthwhile, hands-on opportunities for our students and help relieve some of their financial stress."
Students interested in the fellowships are expected to find their own placements with public interest organizations providing legal services to needy or underserved constituencies; however, Wayne Law's Career Services Office is prepared to provide assistance in locating suitable public interest opportunities. Students must work at least 10 full weeks (or the equivalent) between May and August, 2009.
For more information regarding Wayne Law's Public Interest Law Fellowships, please visit http://www.law.wayne.edu/finaid/pilf.php.

Ashley Nick
Three Women of Troy Shine On In The NWSL
Sam Johnson, Ashley Nick and Amy Rodriguez are busy in the pro ranks.
USC's Ashley Nick Signs With Sky Blue FC
Trojan grad is called up to the pro ranks of the National Women's Soccer League.
Trojans Win W-League Championship
Several USC players -- past and present -- combined forces on Pali Blues to win it all in the W-League.
Game Day In Paradise!
Allie Harrison checks in from Honolulu, where USC is ready to face the Rainbow Wahine!
Trojan All-American and international all-star Ashley Nick enters her second season as director of operations for USC women's soccer. Nick, arguably one of the most talented players to compete for the Women of Troy, was a 2007 All-American and captain of USC's 2007 NCAA Championship team. Her soccer resume shines with international experience gained after her graduation from USC in 2009 as a general studies major with a teaching credential in elementary education.
"I am very excited to have one of the greatest Trojans ever to represent this women's soccer team to be returning to the program," Khosroshahin said of Nick. "Not only is Ashley so bright and capable of excelling in this position, it will be so great to have someone who can mentor the team. She can really offer the ladies a great perspective on leadership and maturity, and her soccer experience is so vast as well."
Nick stood out as one of the most skilled center midfielders in Trojan history during her USC playing career from 2005-08. A junior captain on USC's 2007 NCAA Championship team, Nick was a 2007 All-American and a two-time All-Pac-10 First Team honoree. Following her graduation in 2009, Nick went overseas to play professional soccer in the Netherlands and Norway. She was named captain of FC Twente, where she played two seasons and helped the team win the Dutch Championship and compete in the Champions League. Following that, she played in Norway for Arna Bjørnar, where she was named the team's Biggest Impact Player and helped the squad to the bronze medal in the Norwegian league.
"It means so much to me to join the staff here at USC," Nick said. "I'm honored to have this position and I hope I can help bring some knowledge of the tradition we have here and what it takes to win another national championship."

how to ListPlot3D large data sets
I guess I am pushing the limits of ListPlot3D. I try to ListPlot3d a data
set with many millions of records. I was not able to get an image from the
full dataset, it takes forever. If I use e.g. every fifth record, although
slow, I get an image. The machine running Mathematica is Windows 7 (64 bit),
has 24 GB RAM and there was no swapping. I wonder what is considered as a
reasonable data size for ListPlot3D and are there other tools in Mathematica
for visualization of large data sets?
Thanks in advance,

WHY SHE'S AMAZING: Megan Grassel grew frustrated that her 13-year-old little sister was having trouble finding bras that didn't have push-up padding or sexy cut-outs. She realized there was a market for young girls like her sis who want cute undergarments that didn't push her up two sizes. Megan launched a Kickstarter campaign in March 2014, with the goal of raising $25,000 in one month. Megan ended up raising $43,000, and launched Yellowberry that October. "It was completely surreal. Lots of smiles and quite a fear tears of joy!" Megan told us. Megan's new company caught the eye of American Eagle's intimate brand Aerie, who she's teamed up with for an all new collection hitting stores this week!
WHAT'S NEXT: Megan is taking a gap year from Middlebury College, to move to NYC and focus on Yellowberry. "I love doing all the marketing, branding, PR, social media, and social messaging for Yellowberry, and often call it my 'crash course in business,'" she said. "Yellowberry is the first priority in my life, and it will continue to be that way for a while!"
WHY SHE'S AMAZING: After seeing what smoking did to her grandmother, who began smoking at age 11 and died from complications of COPD (a lung disease caused by smoking), Magi Linscott became passionate about raising awareness about the harmful effects of smoking and standing up to the tobacco industry. The then high school student started organizing campaigns across her home state of Florida to raise awareness about tobacco and its horrible consequences.
Now, a freshman in college, Magi is taking her fight nationwide, and trying to combat the tobacco industry's view of young people as "replacement smokers." For Kick Butts Day, a national day of anti-smoking youth advocacy, Magi is fighting tobacco using... selfies. The teen is kicking off her #NotAReplacement movement today, and wants teens across the country to join her in standing up to the tobacco companies marketing to teens and letting them know they will never be their customers by posting selfies, with captions like, "I'm not a replacement, I am an athlete (or student, or advocate, etc.)."

Davis Honored as USBWA Freshman of the Year
March 13, 2012
ST. LOUIS – The U.S. Basketball Writers Association (USBWA) has selected Kentucky freshman Anthony Davis as the men's National Freshman of the Year in conjunction with the 2012 Wayman Tisdale Award.
The Chicago, Ill., native was selected as a first-team All-America selection by the USBWA on Monday. He averaged 14.3 points and 10.0 rebounds per game en route to leading the Wildcats to a No. 1 overall ranking in the NCAA Tournament and a perfect 16-0 record in Southeastern Conference action.
Davis is the second Kentucky player in three years to win the USBWA's National Freshman of the Year Award, joining John Wall, who won the award in 2010. Davis, the USBWA's District IV Player of the Year, is also a finalist for the Oscar Robertson Trophy, given to the National Player of the Year by the USBWA.
He has started all 34 games this season while shooting 64.2 percent from the field, which ranks as the second best in the nation. Davis also leads the nation in blocks (157). In 28 of the Wildcats' 34 games, he has scored in double figures while recording 17 double-doubles. The 17 double-double efforts rank as the second-highest total in a single season by a UK freshman.
The other four finalists for the award this season were Davis' teammate Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Duke's Austin Rivers, Washington's Tony Wroten, and Indiana's Cody Zeller.
The USBWA has chosen a national freshman of the year since the 1988-89 season when LSU's Chris Jackson was the recipient. Other previous winners of the award include Kevin Durant, Carmelo Anthony, Jason Kidd and Chris Webber. This season marks the second year the award has been named in Wayman Tisdale's honor.
The late Wayman Tisdale was a three-time USBWA All-American at the University of Oklahoma. Following a stint on the 1984 U.S. Olympic basketball team, he played 12 seasons in the NBA before retiring in 1997 to focus on a blossoming jazz music career. In March 2007, he was diagnosed with cancer and, following a courageous and difficult battle that included the amputation of his right leg in 2008, he passed away in May 2009.

Subtitles need to be in English. I never could understand what that duck was saying.
I obsessed about this cartoon when i was a kid, and regularly tried to water soaked snow shells.
Just more anti-battleship propaganda…
"A Ship's a Fool to Fight a Fort"
Lord Nelson
Well, that's what the PLAN gets for trying to start a war over Senkaku.
Anybody hear from Loomis lately?
Here in northern RI, roughly 18″ on the ground, windy as hell (although its worse to the South, where Erik is), and obviously still got power.
National Grid reported at 11:15, 300k people with no power in RI and Eastern MA.
Every once in a while there's a blip. I expect one of those blips to be an outage. Power company says they can't even begin work until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, because they won't operate the bucket trucks in these windy conditions.
6 am in CT and it's still snowing/windy with 2 feet on the ground already.
This clip may be the best cartoon-violence porn ever produced (other than Itchy and Scratchy). I always loved it for the creativity of the violence and ice-consequences, but I now realize that it also appealed to my sense of moral justice as well. Uncle Donald is the unjustified aggressor, and he only gets his just deserts. The constant escalation is a consequence of his continuing assaults on the nephews, and their creative responses. They also win with their brains (clever weapons) over his brawn. I always found this clip emotionally satisfying in a way that the Tom-and-Jerry, Wiley Coyote, clips weren't (what's wrong with a natural carnivore wanting to eat?).
It's a standard feature in Warner Brothers cartoons: you end up feeling sorry for the predator instead of the prey.

Mysterious fatal dog illness hits Northeast Ohio
(Columbus) - The Ohio Department of Agriculture is working with animal health experts to identify dog illnesses that have killed at least four pets on opposite ends of the state.
The outbreak has been reported near Cincinnati and Canal Fulton, located south of Akron.
The agency's Division of Animal Health has been taking reports of severe dog illnesses for the past three weeks and at least four dogs have died.
Symptoms include vomiting, bloody diarrhea, weight loss and lethargy.
Agency spokeswoman Erica Hawkins says there are several known causes of the symptoms in dogs, but it's generally believed that there is an unknown contributor to the recent cases.

Arsenal are 9/13 with GunnersGaming to make it five Premier League wins on the bounce when they travel to St Mary's to take on Southampton on New Year's Day.
The Gunners have really been in fine recent form and impressed in their convincing 7-3 win against Newcastle at Emirates Stadium on Saturday.
Theo Walcott was outstanding in that game, netting a hat-trick and looks a worthy favourite at 4/1 to open the scoring in this given his current form.
Olivier Giroud, who scored a brace against Newcastle, is priced up at 9/2 in the same market.
Arsène Wenger's team gave the Saints a 6-1 drubbing in the reverse fixture back in September, and a repeat of that scoreline is priced up at 99/1.
However, Nigel Adkins' side did well to score three in their 3-3 draw at Stoke on Saturday, so a 3-1 win for the Gunners could be a more feasible outcome at 11/1.
Finally, given Arsenal's current mood it would be no surprise to see plenty of goals in this - especially as Wenger's men have netted 13 in their last three games.
Over 2.5 is at 3/5 with GunnersGaming while over 3.5 has to be a distinct possibility and can be backed at 29/20.

Moraga, Calif. • Jimmer Fredette didn't do it, and neither did Mike Smith, Devin Durrant or Fred Roberts.
Only BYU great Danny Ainge passed the 1,000-point scoring barrier as a sophomore. Until Thursday night.
Tyler Haws scored 12 points in the Cougars' 64-57 loss at Saint Mary's giving him 1,003 in his career.
"It's a great accomplishment," he said. "I have to give a lot of credit to my teammates and coaches. … I wish we could have done that and come out with a win. It hurts losing."
Ainge scored 632 points as a freshman in 1977-78 and 498 as a sophomore in 1978-79 for a two-year total of 1,130.
Haws was 4 for 10 from the field, 4 for 4 from the free throw line. But he picked up an offensive foul with about a minute left and missed a jumper while being heavily defended on the Cougars' next possession.
"They just made the plays down the stretch to win," Haws said.
Fredette, BYU's all-time leading scorer, had 244 points as a freshman in 2008-09 and 536 as a sophomore the following year for a two-year total of 780.
Where they are
A quick glance at the West Coast Conference statistical leaders list shows that BYU is one of the better offensive teams in the league, but not quite as good on the defensive end.
Heading into Thursday's games, the Cougars were No. 2 in scoring offense at 78.0 points per game, just behind Gonzaga (78.5). They were No. 7 in scoring defense (69.2), partly because they push the ball a lot and create more possessions for not only themselves, but their opponents.
The Cougars lead the WCC in free-throw percentage (72.9 percent) and are third in field-goal percentage (46.0), but struggle from 3-point range, as many fans are aware. BYU is second-to-last in 3-point percentage, making just 33.3 percent of its long-range shots (161 of 184).
Although they have been out-rebounded in four of their last five games, the Cougars actually aren't that bad at collecting caroms. They entered Thursday's game third in the league in rebounding margin at plus-3.2 behind only Saint Mary's (8.4) and Gonzaga (7.6).

Moderator: James E. Ryan, Dean and Professor, HGSE Speaker: Patrick Sharkey, Associate Professor of Sociology, New York University Discussants: • Richard Rothstein, Research Associate, Economic Policy Institute; Senior Fellow, Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute on Law and Social Policy, University of California-Berkeley School of Law • William Julius Wilson, Geyser University Professor, Harvard University; Director, Joblessness and Urban Poverty Research Program, HKS In the 1960s, many believed the civil rights movement would foster a new era of racial equality in America. However, today, racial inequality has barely changed. Sharkey argues in his book, Stuck in Place, that political decisions and social policies have led to severe disinvestment from black neighborhoods, persistent segregation, declining economic opportunities, and a growing link between African American communities and the criminal justice system. The result, he argues, is that inequality continues to be passed down generation after generation. The panelists will examine how urban policies and transformative changes in urban communities may truly help break down racial inequalities.

On a recent road trip through the mid-west, we had a stop in Mansfield, MO. The place we stayed at had a pond on the grounds that was open for the guests to fish. It contain Bluegills, some Crappie and catfish. Since I travel with a fly rod I was going to break it out for the kids the first afternoon. The owner told me that the fish can only be caught with a worm - even more reason to fish it. I had brought some poppers with me for such an occasion.
Here is my eldest daughter with her first 'gill. She is becoming a very good fly rodder and caught a few on her own.
Here is my youngest. She claims to have caught the fish all by herself; who am I to disagree.
My son didn't want his photo taken for whatever reason. But, he wanted to handle all the fish caught and throw them back in. Here is a nice bluegill before becoming airborne.
The next morning, I had a chance to fish on my own. Here is one of many bluegills that smashed the little popper. The kids had a blast and so did I.

Editor's Note: In this great city of ours, one could eat a different sandwich every day of the year--so that's what we'll do. Here's A Sandwich a Day, our daily look at sandwiches around the Windy City. Got a sandwich we should check out? Let us know!
I reviewed Skrine Chops as a Lunch in the Loop feature last November, and it's an old favorite of mine, even if the prices are a little steep. I mentioned the Skribeye sandwich ($12) in passing, but I didn't write it up—so here we are! High-fives all around. Let's keep high-fiving until things get really awkward and nobody knows what to say.
Man, do I love steak, even though I can't afford it very often. And the Skribeye (best name ever) doesn't disappoint. It's grilled to order (in my case, medium-rare on the dot), and it comes on a puffy yet sturdy white bread bun. The eight ounces of char-grilled steak rests on a bed of rich buttery mashed Yukon Gold potatoes and has a sprinkle of blue cheese for a counterbalanced flavor. If the potatoes sound like too much starch on an already starchy bun, it's not, because somehow it works miraculously well. The steak is tender and juicy, no dental floss needed, and is deeply beefy. This is meat and potatoes on a bun, and it's straight up satisfying.

1 p.m. 84A04-1305-CT-224. University of Southern Indiana. Andrew Rogers was physically assaulted during a party at a house
rented by some members of Sigma Chi's Terre Haute chapter. He sued the international fraternity, the local chapter,
and certain individuals for his injuries. The trial court granted summary judgment for the defendants. Rogers
argues on appeal the defendants were in possession of the house for premises liability purposes and they had a duty to protect
Rogers from a foreseeable criminal attack by a third party while he was there.

Take an adventure holiday in THAILAND with World Expeditions, one of the world's leading travel companies.
Unlike many of its South-East Asian neighbours, Thailand has never been colonised by another country – a fact that Thai people are particularly proud of. Known as Siam until 1949, Thailand is a country with a rich history, fascinating culture, and great geographical diversity that includes rainforest-clad mountains in the north and beautiful golden beaches in the south.
Thai people are known worldwide for their friendly smiles, natural grace and kindness. The majority of the population follows Theravada Buddhism, the oldest form of Buddhism that was originally developed in India and based on the four noble truths that Lord Buddha had realised in order to become enlightened. Many young Thai men become monks for a period in their lives – usually between school and getting married – and this gives great spiritual prestige to the family concerned. The Thai people are also very patriotic and show great respect and love towards their royal family – most places of business have at least one picture of the Thai king on their wall.
Thais are also very modest and they tend to dress very conservatively. Women particularly should try to cover their shoulders and wear long, loose-fitting clothes (this is often the most comfortable clothing to be wearing in the heat anyway). Nudity, even on the beach, is frowned upon and considered very disrespectful to the local people.
The main language spoken in Thailand is, of course Thai, but there are many different dialects of this, along with the hilltribe languages. It is a good idea to pick up a phrase book and try to learn a few simple phrases, which will be greatly appreciated.

WTAM's Mike Snyder will sit in on NBA draft lottery
(Cleveland)- Two lucky Cavs fans plan to bring their positive mojo to New York City after being selected to travel to ABC's Disney Times Square studios with Cavaliers majority owner Dan Gilbert and his son nick tonight for the 2013 NBA draft lottery.
Gerry Burma of Brecksville and Tate Moore of Wadsworth will be part of the Cavaliers traveling party to the big apple where the lottery will determine. WTAM 1100 Sports Director Mike Snyder as well as rapper Machine Gun Kelly will also be there.
The winners were selected through two separate platforms; one for Cavs Wine & Gold United members, the exclusive club for all Cavs season ticket holders, and the second via a social media call to action from @cavsdan (Dan Gilbert's official twitter handle).
A very special benefit of Wine & Gold United membership was realized by Burma when all members were automatically entered to win the random drawing for the trip. "I'm surprised, shocked, and very excited about attending. If this is what wine & gold united is all about-you've made me a believer!" Said Burma, who joined wine & gold united during the past season.
Last Friday, may 17th, Gilbert put out the call to his @cavsdan twitter followers to produce and tweet a :30 second or less original video that creatively expressed why they should travel with him to New York for the lottery proceedings and help represent the cavaliers. @roytatemoore did just that with a winning submission that demonstrated his positive karma to prove that he is "one lucky dude." "I am so excited and thankful for this amazing opportunity. I can't wait to be a part of this night and help represent the cavaliers with Dan and Nick," said Moore.
The Cavs currently have one lottery pick (could be as high as #1, but no lower than #6) in the draft, plus an additional first round pick (#19 overall), and two of the first three picks in the second round (#31 and #33 overall), giving the Cavs four of the top 33 picks. The Cavs have a 15.6-percent chance of landing the top pick in the June draft. To stay connected to all Cavaliers news, visit cavs.com.

Hi guys, following on from the original thread here:
I would like to gauge Interest. There will only be 20 made and the first is ready, and numbered 01-20. It can also be found on UK ebay as we speak.
I am not asking for any money yet, only for you guys to express interest and PM me.
You can also email me directly on firstname.lastname@example.com
This will likely appeal mopre to the UK guys as the piece would be difficult to ship. It is approx 200cm high by 77cm wide and weighs 30kg. I will however look into pricing for US shipping.
The pics can be found again here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/48624713@N07/
Let me know what you think
Many thanks

You're such an enabler! I have a shuffle right now, which I LOVE for running, but have been tempted by a nano so I can have a variety of music - upbeat stuff for running, more relaxed music for my daily commute etc. So glad I waited and saw these!
Do the pretty colours come only in the 4G and up?
I also have to say that I'm tempted my the new tiny little clip on shuffle - that would be fabulous for running - it's just *so* small!
Yeah, I'd be inclined to pay the restocking fee, too.
Hmmm...the sweat thing. I wonder if that armband would work for me or not--I'm kind of a sweaty chick.
Any idea what the time limit on the battery is?
I've got a mini - but the battery dies after about 2.5 hours. Any of the iPod's last significantly longer than that?
you cannot sweat more than me!
done deal...returned the old (new) nano...picking up the new one tomorrow...apple store is awesome..no questions...didn't even look in the box.just paid $15.00...come to find out there is a discount for college student so grab your nearest college student and ask him/her to buy you one...

Hawi, Hawaii Island
- Name: Hawi
- What: Charming town with unique boutiques, galleries and restaurants.
- Where: Northernmost town on Hawaii Island
Spend a few hours browsing the peaceful haven of Hawi, North Kohala's biggest little town, best known as the bicycle turnaround for the annual Ironman World Championship held every October. This historic town, set in the green northern tip of the island, was once the busy hub of North Kohala's now defunct sugar industry.
Today, Hawi is home to a handful of charming art galleries, boutiques and restaurants set in colorful and lively plantation buildings. You'll find everything here from handmade jewelry and crafts to homemade fudge and 100% Kona coffee. The Bamboo Restaurant & Gallery was once voted best restaurant on Hawaii Island and is a great stop for a fresh island style meal.
Beyond Hawi is the town of Kapaau, home of the original King Kamehameha I Statue. Continue driving east on Highway 270 and you'll literally come to the end of the road at the stunning Pololu Valley Overlook. The incredible view overlooking the northeastern coastline will be the perfect way to end your journey through North Kohala.

Happy Music Monday! The unexpected death of Lou Reed on Sunday morning was the kind of thing that Scott couldn't just ignore. Next week, you'll see the Music Monday he planned to run. This week? A very quick farewell to the grandfather of everything we consider to be modern rock.
Lou Reed - Dorita (The Spirit)
When Magic & Loss was released, I remember an interview with where someone suggested that this album would be the best epitaph Lou Reed could ever want. Lou snidely answered that when he died, everyone would play "Walk On The Wild Side" all day. In his honor, you're not going to find that radio hit in the Music Monday today. Instead, you'll find all the great stuff he did that the radio never played. Maybe you'll prefer it too. I sure do.
We'll all say our goodbyes after the jump.
Lou Reed & John Cale - Songs For Drella
About a month ago, I finally got around to picking up my vinyl copy of Songs For Drella. I still haven't even played it yet. But this was the record that really started me on Lou Reed, a beautiful bio-record of Andy Warhol and, really, the songwriter himself. I remember how it fit when I learned that Lou Reed was trying to bring the novel into rock. And I still to this day think of the 550 shoes in "Open House" when I have a lot of work to do before I go home from work.
The California E.A.R. Unit - Metal Machine Music
Everyone knows about Lou Reed's "unlistenable" guitar piece, but not everyone would think a classical orchestra would attempt it. There isn't much to add to a description of the piece, either you like it or you don't, but you can't deny it was daring. To the best of my knowledge, Lou Reed always maintained it wasn't just a big middle finger to his label, and I believe him. Put on headphones and really listen to the original and you might start to hear the melodies in the madness. It's the sort of beauty you might find listening to a traffic jam from within a city park.
Lou Reed - N.Y. Stars
Brian Eno's the one who pointed out that almost nobody bought the first Velvet Underground record in the first year, but everyone who did when on to start a band. Lou Reed's style and fashion influenced damn near everybody that's picked up a guitar since 1968, either directly or indirectly. Without Lou Reed, there might not have been a David Bowie, or a Sonic Youth, or a Jack White or a Nirvana. Like Bob Dylan and Morrissey, even the people who hate the voice kinda like the songs when they're covered.
The Velvet Underground - Rock & Roll
Lou Reed's last record, Lulu, was with Metallica, and was possibly the worst thing a human being has ever recorded on purpose. And yet, that only seems right. Even in his late sixties, Lou Reed was still doing whatever the Hell he wanted, no matter how many people held up their hands and screamed. And why? Because more than anything else he believed in rock & roll. Like some Gatsby-esque hero, he knew that if he kept his eyes on the prize, it was just gonna be all right. And it was. It really was. Rest in peace, Lou Reed. Hope Heaven's a lot like New York.
As always, stop by our Turntable.fm room for the regular Music Monday enjoyment. And let us just remind you: some images come from the corresponding Wikipedia pages and are here under fair use.
Lou Reed and many others sing "Perfect Day"
RIP Lou. One of the icons of Rock & Roll.
Bless you Lou, I remember in Marine Corp listening to the Transformers and Rock & Roll Animal
Not a huge fan, more a second generation influence on me, but dude was totally the real kind of cool. For about 20 years Rock & Roll was the last song of someone else's I'd learned to play. No real reason I did learn it, just had to be done. Some of you know what I'm talking about. Anyway, glad he got to do what he did. Don't think I'd compare him with Morrissey, though.
American Masters documentary on him - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjPuF-CYuic
This is an interview, not a music link. In 1992, Neil Gaiman interviewed Lou Reed for Reflex magazine. Here it is.
You know, I spent years trying to figure out how I felt about the Velvet Underground. Sometimes I liked them, sometimes I loved them, sometimes I found them criminally overrated and was weirdly resentful of them sort of ruining Pink Floyd's early chances in the US. I finally realized that it pretty much depended upon which album I had listened to most recently. The only one I really, really love is The Velvet Underground & Lou Reed-Live 1969. Because I don't like Nico and don't care particularly for John Cale (both mild blasphemy, I know). It's Lou Reed who was the pure heart of the band.
Here is the second record of the double album, because 10+ minutes of Ocean is just about the best thing ever:
And here's the first record, just because (also a great version of New Age somewhere in there):
And here's Satellite of Love, just because depending upon where I am in my menstrual cycle it makes me weep uncontrollably:
Yesterday was a day I have been dreading for years. I had the chance to see lou Reed live in 2004, but I was so exhausted and he was the last performer at All Tomorrow's Parties [I know, what an zombie right?] and had a 2 hour drive home...I just had to skip him. Then I had the other chance to see him a year ago, but I was out of town when he came to LA.
Yesterday I got in the car and they were playing this song
Velvet Underground - Sunday morning
After that they came on and announced the news about Lou Reed's passing. I actually had to pull over and just let that sink in.
Lou Reed was truly an inspiration who is directly responsible for creating sub-genres that inspired sub-genres that inspired sub-genres....he was truly an inspiration to many and a rock and roll legend in his own right. I don't know what else to say, I'm getting bummed out just thinking about it.
Here's one more for the mix assuming it wasn't already added in the 2 hours I went away and came back to this comment
I would not have survived 4 years of college if I hadn't had my Lou Reed albums.
RIP, you were the best.
Hey, quality posts! Such is the power of Lou Reed, even from beyond the grave.

Felix Da Housecat
His parents discouraged his growing club lifestyle, however, and after high-school graduation Stallings left the scene entirely to attend Alabama State College. Over the course of a few years, he lost all interest in house music, though his girlfriend got him back into it. After calling DJ Pierre (who had moved to New York's Strictly Rhythm label), Felix began mixing and producing again. By 1992, he had a hit with the single "Thee Dawn" on Guerilla Records. His popularity soared in Europe, and the following year's "By Dawn's Early Light" and "Thee Industry Made Me Do It" cemented his reputation.
Not long after Stallings formed Radikal Fear Records, the label became one of the top house imprints in the world, thanks to releases from Mike Dunn, DJ Sneak, and Armando, as well as Felix himself. During 1995 he released his debut full-length, Alone in the Dark (as Thee Maddkatt Courtship) on Deep Distraxion. Hot on its heels came the label collection Radikal Fear: The Chicago All Stars and a Housecat DJ album titled Clashbackk Compilation Mix. Another production LP, Metropolis Present Day? Thee Album, followed in 1998. One year later, Stallings appeared extra busy; in addition to his first album as Aphrohead, he also released another Maddkatt Courtship LP, the highly praised I Know Elektrikboy. The year 2001 saw the release of Kittenz and Thee Glitz, a breakthrough LP that helped him gain mainstream exposure through articles in glossy magazines across the globe -- not to mention remix work for the likes of Madonna and Kylie Minogue.
While working on a proper follow-up, Stallings put together a pair of mix albums (2002's Excursions and 2003's A Bugged Out Mix); Devin Dazzle & the Neon Fever arrived in 2005. During this time, Stallings was nominated twice for the the Grammy Award for Best Remixed Recording, Non-Classical, first for his reworking of <<rinôçérôse>>'s "Lost Love" in 2003 and again in 2005 for his remix of Iggy Pop's "Motor Inn." After collaborating with the likes of Thom Yorke and Sean Combs, Stallings released Virgo Blaktro & the Movie Disco in 2007. Two years later, he returned with He Was King, which also traded in danceable synth pop with a heavy Dirty Mind/Controversy-era Prince influence. Stallings' next album, Son of Analogue, was released free with the April 2011 issue of Mixmag magazine.
Over the next few years, the wild lifestyle and grueling schedule of a DJ on the road influenced Felix to "hit the reset button" and get sober. Considering himself "Thee Former Mezcalateer," he returned to the scene in 2013 with a series of electro-disco EPs, including Sinner Winner, co-released by his own label Rude Photo and the Brooklyn imprint No Shame. For 2015's introspective Narrative of Thee Blast Illusion, Felix collaborated with dub legend Lee "Scratch" Perry. ~ John Bush

From Hazrat Ali (ra):
Such a nation will appear in the End Times that THEY WILL RECITE THE QUR'AN BUT IT WILL NOT PASS DOWN THEIR THROATS. THEY WILL BE ABJURED FROM RELIGION LIKE AN ARROW HURLED FROM A BOW. AND EVERY MUSLIM HAS A RIGHT TO STRUGGLE WITH THEM. THEY WILL HAVE SHAVEN HEADS... (Abu Abdur Rahman Ahmad Ibn Shu'aib an-Nasai, Hazrat Ali through the Hadiths, p. 142)
Our Prophet (saas) refers in his hadiths to certain so-called religious scholars who will appear in the time of Hazrat Mahdi (as), in other words in the End Times. One of the hadiths in question has been narrated from Hazrat Ali (ra). In this hadith, our Prophet (saas) stated that these people boast of speaking Arabic very fluently and properly and of reciting the Qur'an very accurately, but when it comes to implementing the commands of the religion and properly understanding the verses of the Qur'an, they are insincere. Our Prophet (saas) described their situation in the words, "… they will recite the Qur'an but it will not pass down their throats…" With their deeds and words, these false religious scholars will entirely deviate from the true path of the Qur'an. These people will not speak of the dominion of Islamic morality, and their intention will be to impair Muslims' enthusiasm and determination. They will depart from the state of mind of optimism and submission to Allah that is unique to Muslims, and will look at events through the superficial eyes of the ignorant. Their words will conflict with the Qur'an and the moral values of Islam. True Muslims, while striving against those who deny Allah and the religion, will in the meantime struggle against people with this mindset, who seek to conceal the global dominion of religious moral values, and to spread mischief among Muslims. Our Prophet (saas) revealed in the hadith that all Muslims have a duty to wage an intellectual struggle against such people. Our Prophet (saas) also provided a piece of information about the hairstyles of these people in the End Times, so that they can be recognized.

Three Columbus Circle
3 Columbus Circle was a solid brick building built in 1927 on a design by Shreve, Lamb and Harmon Associates. But when glass curtain-wall madness took over midtown in the early 2000s, bricks became as out-of-fashion as bell-bottoms. So the owners covered the old building with glass and, undoubtedly, jacked the rents up to match. Could repointing really have been that hard?

Moveon.org BS
Some how I got on their email list. I just got this....
Dear Michigan MoveOn member,
Michigan's legislature has passed a bill that would essentially privatize all of Michigan's inland lakes and streams. Unless you can afford to buy lakefront property, your access to Michigan's beautiful waterways will be severely restricted by this bill. But there is still time to stop this effort. That's why I created a petition to Governor Rick Snyder on SignOn.org, which says:
I urge you to veto Senate Bill 778. SB 778 advocates elimination of valuable public access, rather than pensive regulation. It may also decrease revenue for businesses dependent on tourism of Michigan's many inland lakes and streams, a detriment to the Pure Michigan campaign.
This overreaching legislation will hinder local municipalities' ability to manage public road ends in a manner appropriate to the local area.
Governor Snyder, Senate Bill 778 is bad for Michigan. Please protect public access to these vital natural resources and the small business that benefit from them. Do not allow this bill to become law.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Will you sign the petition? Click here to add your name, and then pass it along to your friends:

I get these crap emails daily. Most have a link to a petition. I wonder how many of their followers get the email and sign the petition which is based on lies. Any politician or organization getting a petition from moveon.org should assume it is worthless.

i am on the rag.
we have a place on a lake. the "law" discussed would prohibit people from putting up docks on public access areas. if you want to access a private lake buy propety on the lake. if you want access to a public lake, use the public access. the whole idea pf a multi boat dock on at the end of a public road on a lake means polluting the concept of private propety owenership. you want access, pay the price for property like everyone else. otherwise, use an established public access like everyone else amd take your boat home at the end of the day.

Would you pick one of these up for yourself Cliff? Maybe if you saw it cheap?
Possibly, but with the state of my finances at the moment it would have to be very cheap. I'm hoping to have the new Sigma SD15 DSLR in for review soon; I'm keen to see what that can do.
I'd be interested to see how this compares to the sony nex-5 which comes with a 16mm pancake lens as part of the kit though it's focal length a wider angle equivalent to 24mm
I can understand if Sigma is wary of relinquishing any control but since their cameras are so unrefined apart from the fabled sensor and lens, I would say that their cameras are screaming for some kind of high-powered partnership with another big camera maker.
@Cliff - Know the feeling all too well..
@Hedgeporker - I'd love a Ricoh/Sigma mash up! :D
@Cliff - The SD15 needs to be really on the ball with the price they are after!
Does anybody know if Sigma will update the Foveon sensor at some point?
I love the sigma cameras and would dearly love to own one, but always felt it just needs a few more megapixels and that sensor would be truly great!
My personal camera fantasy would be a Pentax K7 with a full frame Foveon sensor. I would also like to stick one in a Leica but that's a different story. . . .
I agree with Hedgeporker, if Sigma is on the ball strategically they should be looking for a pertnership with one of the big dogs who could design and build a super compact around the sensor and lens.
Noise is one thing, but would anyone care to address the significant color shift between the ISO 100 and ISO 800 examples? If image quality is the DP2s' raison d'etre (and for me that includes glorious color rendition) then aren't situations that significantly compromise IQ worth special notice?
robert e - a loss of colour saturation at higher ISO settings is common to most digital cameras. It is a symptom of increasing noise, or rather a reducing signal to noise ratio.
@joose - Ricoh/Sigma mash up was also in my thoughts, but my feeling is that they will end up bickering about whose name gets to go on it precisely because they seem to be on rather similar frequencies. Or maybe Ricoh could just start knocking out a line called Ricoh Sigma with body and OS from the former, lens and sensor from the latter? I like the sound of this more and more . . . :D
@Hedgeporker - They could simply make a module for the GXR. Test the water so to speak.
GXR probably doesn't have the broad appeal that would make the water-testing commercially viable. A GR Ditital Foveon however . . .
Thanks, Cliff. It's not that the effect is unexpected, but that it shows dramatic in this sequence. Perhaps the jpeg engine is partly to blame and it is less apparent in the RAW workflow?
Hi Cliff,
Just a question... you're the same who made the dp1x review... they are supposed to be more or less the same stuff, apart from the lens (what you say about sensor it's true for one and the other, I guess)... but you are much more negative with the dp1x then with dp2s. I was wondering about buying the dp1x, cause of the wide angle, but actually I'm not so sure anymore. May you explain me better what are the differences you noticed that made you change your mind about sigma stuff in so short time? It seems dp1x has worst low light performance (Iso and focus), worst working speed... what more?
Thanks a lot,
PV, Italy
@PV: Well, for one thing Cliff didn't review both cameras. For another, they both get the same overall score. For a third, the dp2x has had two years worth of developments that have been added to it, so you'd expect it to be a better camera.
As to whether to buy a dp1x, I'd suggest it largely depends on whether you can get it at a good price.
@Ed: Cliff did review the DP1x in Nov 2010 - you are referring to the DP1 from 2008. The DP1x did much worse than the DP2s in Cliff's reviews. In particular, the key reason to buy the DP2s was its image quality, but Cliff seems to suggest the DP1x quality is more varied. I would be interested in knowing if there is a big difference between the two or if it is simply that the competition have improved quite a bit in 6 months.
A key consideration is that now the DP2s is available for £400 which is a bit more manageable, but the DP1x is about £500 - the same price as the Panasonic GF2 with lens.

text: On my way home from school tonight a 1980's honda civic hatchback tried to race me. And no there was nothing done to it at all except aging. I couldnt get pictures as it was dark and i was driving. They pulled up to me about 4-5 times reving the engine and taking off. Not quite sure why they thought they even had a chance, so i just looked at them and started laughing.

Kentucky State Police Post 4 in Elizabethtown is investigating a five-car collision Tuesday morning near Flaherty that left a Brandenburg woman dead and another driver injured.
According to a KSP news release, Thomas A. Russell, 41, of Lebanon Junction, was westbound on U.S. 60 in a 1994 Mack truck.
Norman Chaffins, spokesman for KSP Post 4, said the truck was hauling U.S. mail but was not a U.S. Postal Service vehicle.
As he approached the intersection at U.S. 60 and Ky. 144, Russell failed to stop at a red light and struck the driver's side of a 1999 Saturn, operated by Melissa Wilkins, 42, of Brandenburg, according to police. Wilkins was southbound on Ky. 144 and had a green light.
Wilkins was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
After striking the Saturn, police said the truck collided with a 2011 Ford Taurus driven by Gregory Willingham, 49, of Irvington, and then a 2007 Mazda driven by Rebecca Dean, 41, of Hardinsburg.
Both vehicles were eastbound on U.S. 60. Willingham was stopped at a red light while Dean was approaching it, according to the release.
Russell's truck continued southwest and came to a stop in a corn field facing west, police said.
After being struck by the Mack truck, Wilkins' Saturn was pushed into a 1997 Dodge pick-up truck driven by Allen Thomas, 52, of Guston, which also was eastbound and stopping for a red light on U.S. 60, according to KSP.
According to the release, Meade County Dispatch notified Post 4 about the wreck at 6:56 a.m.
Dean was transported to Hardin Memorial Hospital where she was treated and later released, according to police. No other injuries were reported.
Police said all occupants involved in the wreck were wearing seat belts. Neither alcohol nor drugs appear to be involved.
No charges have been filed at this time.
The wreck is being investigated by Trooper Brad Riley.
