The 303rd Infantry Battalion of the Philippine Army has intensified its operations in Negros Occidental in preparation for the rise of New People's Army's (NPA) attacks during "tiempos muertos" or lean months.
Based on their experience, 303rd IB Commander Col. Jon Aying said there is a significant increase in the volume of crimes from June to September when sugar mills are closed.
Aying said they have so far deployed soldiers near haciendas in southern and northern districts to heighten their visibility.
Of the areas covered, Aying disclosed that they are concentrating their anti-insurgency efforts in the first district of the province where the NPA's Boy Gatmaitan command is based.
He also said they are coordinating closely with the mayors of
Even Governor Alfredo Marañon Jr. and Congressman Julio Ledesma IV are well-informed of their operations, he said.
Meanwhile, Aying also issued statements in reaction to the temporary closure of Philex Mining Corp. in
Aying admitted that though they are aggressive in their operations, they lack soldiers to secure every corner of the province.
"Philex can either request our national headquarters for additional soldiers to patrol southern
He also added that making people jobless has always been part of NPA's strategies so they can easily recruit people.

Proficient people do not want to be advised what to do; they need to work together in small intimate groups, they want feedback and challenging tasks, they want time to work on their inventive ideas, they need a genuine effort to promote improved personal life, they want a cool place to work in, they usually want food.
That is an superior hub on the entire benefits of reading varied varieties of writings. This is a very interesting article, I will look forward to reading some more of your hubs.

Close-up: The Hair at Marchesa
I had the opportunity to be backstage at Marchesa for Fashion Week and visit with the hair team with John Frieda. The trend? Healthy, natural waves so soft and pretty you'll want to recreate the look all year long. John Frieda's Root Awakening products were used to create that fairytale persona which perfectly emulated the Marchesa fall collection of pleated tulle and silk chiffon ruffles.
So how do you get the look? Lead stylist Harry Josh recommends these steps:
1. Blow out hair and create a severe part where hair lies best.
2. Using a curling iron slanted horizontally, manually wrap hair around the iron to create the appearance of natural waves and avoid an overly styled look.
3. Brush hair through to loosen curls, then slick down the side and secure with a bobby pin.
4. Aim the bobby pin at a 45-degree angle from the outer corner of the eye for chic hold.
And now you're on your way to creating your very own fall fairytale. So enchanting!

Elections approaching in Afghanistan
Afghanistan will hold elections on April 5th. This week a suicide bomber killed at least 15 people in Northern Afghanistan, stoking fears that violence would increase in the weeks leading up to April election. All of the candidates have said if elected they would sign a security agreement with the U.S allowing U.S. troops to remain in the country after a formal withdrawal at the end of 2014. Anand Gopal, the Bernard L. Schwartz Fellow at the New America Foundation and author of No Good Men Among the Living: America, the Taliban, and the War through Afghan Eyes, tells us what we can expect from the April elections.

CMU:DIY Guide
Part Eight: Songwriting, Publishing And PRS
Last updated on: Sunday 2 September 2018
Copyright protects both songs and recordings. But how do song rights make money, what do music publishers do and where does PRS For Music fit in? We explain it all…
We talked in Part One about the two sets of music rights – ie the copyright in songs and the separate copyright in recordings. The music publishing sector is involved in managing and monetising the former. It's called publishing because if you go back a hundred years, you made money out of songs by publishing books of sheet music.
Today there are various ways you can make money out of the song copyright.
1. When a record company makes copies of its recordings onto CD or vinyl, they usually only own the copyright in the master recording not the accompanying song. They therefore need a licence from the publisher of the song giving them permission to make copies of it. Which makes the songwriter and publisher money.
2. When a download store or streaming service delivers a recording of a song digitally they need permission from the owners of both the recording and the song rights. Which makes the songwriter and the publisher money.
3. When a radio station broadcasts recordings of songs it also needs permission from the owners of both the recording and the song rights (except in the US where, because of the country's copyright law, an AM/FM station actually only needs permission from the owner of the song rights). Which makes the songwriter and the publisher money.
4. If a TV, film or games producer, or an advertiser, wants to synchronise a recording of a song to their video they need to get a sync licence from the owners of both the recording and the song rights. Of course, the producer or advertiser could record a new version of the song, which means they'd then only need permission from the owner of the song rights. But either way, the songwriter and the publisher make money.
5. If a song is performed live in a public space then the promoter of the show (or sometimes the venue) needs to get permission from the owner of the song copyright. Which makes the songwriter and the publisher money.
6. If a recording of a song is played in a public space, then the management at the public space need to get permission from the owners of both the recording and the song rights. Which makes the songwriter and the publisher money.
7. If someone wants to sample a snippet of a track, they need permission from the owners of both the recording and the song rights. Even if they recreate the sample, rather than using the original snippet, the chances are they still need permission from the owner of the song rights. Which makes the songwriter and the publisher money.
8. Some music publishers still publish books of sheet music. Or they might allow a karaoke service or a streaming platform to use their lyrics. Both would make the songwriter and the publisher money.
By default, the copyright in a song is owned by the writer. If multiple people collaborate on writing a song then they co-own the copyright. But it's for the co-writers to decide how the copyright is split – so if there are four co-writers, do you split it four ways, or does one person get more than everybody else? Whenever you write a song with someone else, you need to agree how the resulting copyright is shared out.
If someone wants to make use of a co-owned song, they need to get permission from each and every co-owner, any one of whom could say "no". This can make sorting out a licence for using a song very time consuming!
Though remember the collective licensing system we mentioned in Part One. This is where pretty much all rights owners – so all songwriters and publishers – license as one through one organisation, usually called a 'collecting society', 'performing rights organisation' or 'collective management organisation'. This way a licensee only needs to get one licence from one organisation, which then collects the money and passes it over to the relevant writers and publishers.
Collective licensing is very common when it comes to music publishing and song rights, partly because of the complexities around co-ownership. It usually applies to radio, live performance, the playing of recordings of songs in public places, the release of cover versions and TV sync.
We've already mentioned PRS For Music earlier in this guide, which is the main collecting society for song rights in the UK. Though there are actually two UK collecting societies for song rights: PRS for when songs are 'performed' and MCPS for when songs are 'reproduced'. As a writer, if your songs are being both performed and reproduced, you will have to join both societies. Though PRS and MCPS work very closely together, so you can do all that via one website run by PRS For Music.
In the same way recording artists do deals with record companies based around the copyright in their recordings, often songwriters do deals with music publishers based around the copyright in their songs. Many artists are also songwriters, and many music rights companies own both labels and publishers. But if a musician creates both recordings and songs, they will usually do a record deal with one company and a separate publishing deal with another company.
There are similarities between the record deals we described in Part Seven and publishing deals. In the same way artists do record deals to access investment and services, a songwriter does a publishing deal to access both a cash advance and help administering their copyrights and seeking sync, co-write and original commission opportunities.
But there are differences between record and publishing deals too. For starters, generally when the money is split between the publisher and the songwriter, the latter gets more, even with the major publishers. There is also a big difference in the way the songwriter's copyrights are 'assigned' – or transferred – to the publisher.
With a record contract, the label usually owns the sound recording copyrights covered by the deal outright. But in publishing, the songwriter actually assigns their 'performing rights' to PRS, which then has the exclusive right to license those elements of the song copyright. Then, under the publishing contract, the publisher gets the right to directly receive 50% of any money PRS generates.
Meanwhile other elements of the copyright – like the right to reproduce and adapt – are assigned to the publisher, which monetises those elements of the copyright and shares any income with the songwriter directly. This means that a published songwriter doesn't need to be an MCPS member – the publisher joins the collecting society and is paid any royalties the society collects on its behalf. The publisher then shares that money with the writer subject to contract.
Like with recordings, some songwriters don't want to assign their copyrights to publishers but do want help managing their rights and seeking other opportunities. Many publishers will provide these services without assignment under what is called an 'administration deal' if the songwriter doesn't want a big upfront cash advance.

Fully Audio Music Lessons for People Who Are Blind
We received an email recently regarding a site dedicated to teaching basic music lessons to people who are blind. some audio music lessons existed in the National Library Service (NLS) catalog, but not many people spoke about them, perhaps causing some people to think that they no longer were available.
Music for the Blind
Although this site is not new, two things make it stand out. First, the site offers basic lessons for more than a dozen instruments. For a number of years, the available lessons mostly were for guitar and piano alone. Some of these lessons, though not all of them, became available on NLS. Second, all of the lessons are done totally by ear; there is no print, braille, video, or music notation.
The teacher describes techniques totally by ear. You hear what the instructor is doing and, after some instruction, are asked to do what he does. The lessons come on CDs, tapes, in some instances, and downloadable audio files. There also is a place on the homepage to sign up for email updates.
Important Accessibility Notes
Before we discuss the lessons in some more detail, there are a few accessibility issues you need to understand. If you do not run into these issues, you can navigate the site with ease; if you do encounter them, however, the below explanation should help you find what you're looking for on the site.
There is an accessibility sidebar which JAWS shows immediately. This sidebar seems to handle font size and be useful for persons with low vision. At first review with JAWS and Internet Explorer, below this sidebar, you may see only the email signup edit fields and some basic information about the site. You must look for a menu and expand that menu with the space bar. Below that first menu is a second one you must expand in the same way. (You do not have to take these steps with Firefox and JAWS).
Here's how you expand the menus. As you scroll, you hear, "Top menu navigation." Press the down arrow key one time; open the menu that gains focus with the space bar. You may have to refresh your screen (hit the JAWS key plus escape to do this with JAWS) before you notice the new links that opening up the menu should display.
After you see a few links, you hear, "Child menu", and you will be told if that menu is expanded or collapsed. Move to that menu with one press of the down arrow key and expand it with the spacebar to see all remaining links. Again, remember that you likely will have to take these steps using Internet Explorer and probably will not have to do so with Firefox.
Tell Me What I Will Find!
Examples of the courses covered on this site include piano courses, guitar courses, and drum lessons. However, these are only three of the 13 current course types available. Note that some of the piano and guitar courses are available for download from the BARD site from NLS. Not all of these courses may be available from NLS, however, so please check with the Music for the Blind site and sign up for their emails to see a full list of current courses and to hear about new ones as they are added.
How Do the Courses Work?
When you open up the page that describes one of the course types, you will find one or more brief audio samples. Listen using the accessible audio player, and you will get a feel for how the lessons work. Remember, all lessons are audio only—no video, print, braille, or musical notation!
To buy any course, open the menus, and select the course you want to purchase by clicking its link. You will find the links immediately below the audio samples. Click the one you want and select checkout. Links for each course are clearly labeled and include the price and the media you will receive. Note: You must create an account to complete your purchase. If you have problems accessing the site or would rather speak to someone directly, you can call 888-778-1828. We wish you success with learning to play a new instrument or with improving your existing skills.

Global Warming Inc - the new global tax system for fresh air. Hearth Tax 1662-1689,Window Tax 1696-1851,Carbon Dioxide Tax 2005-?
"Carbon (Dioxide) trading is now the fastest growing commodities market on earth.....And here's the great thing about it. Unlike traditional commodities markets, which will eventually involve delivery to someone in physical form, the carbon (dioxide) market is based on lack of delivery of an invisible substance to no-one. Since the market revolves around creating carbon (dioxide) credits, or finding carbon (dioxide) reduction projects whose benefits can then be sold to those with a surplus of emissions, it is entirely intangible." (Telegraph)
This blog has been tracking the 'Global Warming Scam' for over ten years now. There are a very large number of articles being published in blogs and more in the MSM who are waking up to the fact the public refuse to be conned any more and are objecting to the 'green madness' of governments and the artificially high price of energy. This blog will now be concentrating on the major stories as we move to the pragmatic view of 'not if, but when' and how the situation is managed back to reality. To quote Professor Lindzen, "a lot of people are going to look pretty silly"

The puzzling world of 'sewage for fuel' grows murkier still
" I must also update the part of my story that dealt with the Longannet power station, provider of electricity for a quarter of all Scottish homes, which was forbidden, in 2004, to continue burning half of Scotland's sewage as a fuel to make electricity. The top Scottish judge upheld a ruling by the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (Sepa), which had previously welcomed the scheme, that under EU waste rules this was illegal.
In fact it turns out that Sepa let Longannet continue burning sewage pellets, illegally, right up to April this year – the resulting ash being sold to a firm called Scotash, which turns it into building materials. Now Scotash itself buys the pellets, to reduce them directly to ash in an EU-compliant incinerator. So, it is legal under EU waste rules to turn sewage into ash – it's just that it is not legal to use it to make electricity on the way. .."

This is how I keep myself going through the long Summer break – it sounds lots of work and I can't in all honesty say I don't curse myself on a Sunday night when I suddenly remember I have to re-do the boxes, but to keep the kids occupied and focused as well as entertained is well worth the effort. Of course they have now got used the idea of themes and enjoy working them out with me, as the surprise element is a little lost I get them to help with sorting through the DVD's and stickers etc to fill the boxes on a Sunday…
So – the idea is that we split the holiday into one week topics or themes – originally I decided on them based on the activities I was planning to take us on, so there was a Pirate Day at Newstead Abbey last year and we had a Pirate Week the same week… but this year the kids have come up with their themes – the current list is on our kitchen cupboard! This year the boxes have also changed, they have a wicker tray each for school related things, but I can't find room for the boxes so we are just going to clear out their trays for the Summer (two jobs in one!).
I rarely buy anything for this exercise, but once I know the themes I can check out the local charity shops and ask around for any new DVD's, books, toys or games that fit. I use the cut up magazines, print out wordsearches, find Lego instructions, add DVD's/CD's, books, print a recipe, stickers, colouring in sheets and add a few educational tasks as well – this is mostly stuff we already have around the house!!
One week you can add a load of Lego/Duplo, one week some face paints, one week some science tasks with the bits you need, one week some chalks for outside, one week some china pens etc, whatever you have is exciting as soon as you call it a topic and make it relevant. I store up bottles of bubbles that we get in party bags and refill those with added glitter or something smelly and I'm the best mum in the world for a while there… Have Fun!

Death sentence or 7 years for the same offence? – Kenya's conflicted Penal Code
Read judgment
Peter Muindi and Jimmy Musila were originally charged and convicted of attempted robbery with violence. On conviction they were sentenced to death. Though the death penalty was commuted to life, they lost both their appeal attempts (to the High Court and the Court of Appeal) on the question of conviction and appropriate sentence. That seemed to be the end of the road: they would have to reconcile themselves to spending the rest of their lives in jail.

Rea's wife on how she keeps bike champ's feet on the ground
The proud wife of Superbike star Jonathan Rea has revealed how she keeps his feet firmly on the ground - despite his hat-trick of world titles.
The Ballyclare star (30) landed his third straight championship earlier this year, and is in the running for the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award tomorrow.
In a BBC documentary to be broadcast on Monday night, Rea said he really appreciates his team "embracing" his Australian wife Tatia (37) and sons Jake and Tyler, aged four and two, who accompany him as he races on the international circuit.
Speaking on Jonathan Rea: Three In A Row Tatia revealed: "We keep it normal."
She is quick to remind Rea that "life doesn't stop" just because he has won races.
"I don't say it quite like that, but he definitely gets the message and pulls his socks up and comes back to us."
But she admitted that she has to "let him have his moment", adding: "When he has done something amazing, he lives in a bit of a bubble for 24 hours, so I give him his moment then.
"I have to pop his bubble because I have to get him back to reality and help me out."
Commenting on his Kawasaki team, Rea said: "To see how welcoming my team are, to understand that, means a lot me, to embrace them as part of my team and encourage that, I really appreciate that from their side.
"My mechanics are the second fathers to my kids."
At first Rea, a past pupil, of Larne Grammar School, was reluctant to bring his family on the circuit.
But now that he is "part of the club", he said that having them nearby helps his performance on the track.
He said: "I was much more relaxed as a person and settled when they were around. My results reflected that."
He said that before becoming a father he wondered why other racers brought their children to the track, believing that it was "not the place" for them.
He added: "Now I have become part of the club, I understand completely where they are coming from."
Tatia added: "When Jonathan joined Kawasaki, we had this document given to us, the rules of the team - no kids in the garage, no wives in the garage. It was quite overwhelming.
"To be told that in black and white print was quite heavy.
"From the word go Jonathan went in and was winning and was like: 'What are they going to say if you pop in with the boys? It is not affecting my life and my racing'.
"We go in and the mechanics are open arms.
"They tend to feel that Jonathan overthinks things sometimes.
"We break up the stress of what he is experiencing sometimes on the track. We keep it normal."
Rea admitted there are difficult moments too, adding: "You are maybe at dinner and you can hear an important meeting with the Japanese technical guys two tables away and Tyler decides to have a meltdown and food goes everywhere.
"At that moment you think maybe they shouldn't be there, but we are clever enough to shelter them when they should not be there, but it is also so important for me that they are there."
Tatia added: "It is an exceptional quality that he has.
"I do not know anyone in the industry who is able to be such an incredible human being as well as being such an aggressive racer, to be able to switch from winning races to come back to the motorhome.
"He will do little bits and pieces.
"He is not 100% with us, but it is just nice he can have those moments with the boys. It keeps him real."
Earlier this year Rea was awarded an MBE for services to motorcycle racing.
Jonathan Rea: Three In A Row will be broadcast on BBC 1 on Monday night

Paris is now looking like her old self again
Last time we saw Paris Hilton's figure on show was on the catwalk in São Paulo in January, sporting muscles even Madonna would be proud of.
At the time, 30-year-old Paris put her athletic new shape down to her romance with entrepreneur Cy Waits, a huge fitness fanatic.
He explains everything to me,' she said at the time.
He makes me watch documentaries on food and he explains what things are good for your body because he's very into that.'
Although the couple split in June, Paris has obviously kept up Cy's healthy eating plan but she's cut back on using weights, opting instead for body-streaming Pilates sessions.
With her new size 8 figure, confident Paris is playing the field and counts Hangover director Todd Phillips and Made In Chelsea's Spencer Matthews among her admirers.
I'm feeling really great right now and very happy,' she told Now last week.
I'm having just an amazing summer!'

Snow Didn't Stop Supreme's Fans From Attending the 2nd Spring/Summer 2018 Drop
London was obsessed with tennis balls.
Supreme went ahead with its latest Spring/Summer 2018 drop despite the adverse weather that saw London nearly brought to a standstill. The Soho-based store saw a steady stream of fans waiting for their goods and there were definite favorites that people flocked to. The most popular goods were the studded arc logo leather jacket, the recently unveiled Supreme x Vans skull pile Sk8-Hi's and, most surprisingly, the Wilson tennis balls. Take a look through the gallery above to see who turned out for the drop.
The last Supreme London drop was less snow-filled than this one but still had all the old scene favorites turning up.

It's a duck thing: you just wouldn't understand
(more ducky bowls by Gary Rith)
What time does a duck wake up?
At the quack of dawn!!!!!
A woman walks into a bar and the bartender says "Hey where'd you get the pig?"
The women says "This isn't a pig it's a duck"
and the bartender says "No, I was talking to the duck!"
Can you believe there is an online site dedicated to clean duck jokes??????
Oh, life is good, I love the web...........

You know Laura is all about ducks. She has asked her family to take a no-eating-duck oath. And she's written a book explaining why people should not eat duck. (Maybe I should scan and post her book one day soon.)
Here's a joke from Laura:
Knock, knock.
Who's there?
Interrupting duck.
Interrup . . .
Here's another fun duck related website recommended by Laura: This Peanut Looks Like a Duck.

Three guys get to heaven,Bob, Larry and Bill, and before they enter St. Peter warns them "whatever you do don`t ever, ever, step on a duck. Once one quacks, they all do, and they make a terrible racket". Bob enters heaven and immediately steps on a duck. So an angel comes up to him and chains a large hairy ugly woman to him for eternity, and says " I told you not to step on a duck". The next week Larry steps on a duck. An angel comes to him and chains a very ugly woman to him for eternity and says "I told you not to step on a duck". Bill hadn`t stepped on a duck since he had gotten into heaven, then one day an angel comes up to him and chains a beautiful supermodel to him. He asked her why she was there and she turned to him and said, " I don`t know what you did, but I stepped on a duck."

In the first of a series of ruminations on how I can improve my speed, we tackle the long run question of pace.
Today, I ran about 11.5 miles – this was the route, except I sucked it up and ran the extra mile home. I did it in about 1:36, which is roughly and 8:23 pace. Now, even when taking into account that this was my longest run in a while, it was muggy, and the route is hilly as hell, this is a pretty slow pace for me. And I ran it that way on purpose, starting off relaxed and ending relaxed, albeit more tired and v. v. v. sweaty.
It wasn't always this way. My track coach in college was of the mind that long runs should be at a comfortably hard pace. In the past, when I was in better shape, I'd do 14 or 15 miles at a 7:35 pace, which, ya know, was tiring. By the end, I'd be doing 7:10 or 7:00 miles.
With that in mind, today's run could be considered a failure. But are distance days beneficial JUST because you do the distance?
I like this article by Greg McMillan, mostly because I follow the two strategies he suggests: steady distance and fast finish. Granted, these are for marathon training, but fitness is fitness. The first method involves running your long run at a comfortable pace. According to his calculator, for me that would by between 7:57 and 8:57. Check!
The second strategy has you run a little less than the second half of your run at marathon goal pace, the really hammer the last couple of miles. I have no idea what my marathon goal pace would be, but using the handy calculator, he seems to think I can run a 3:14 marathon (uh, okay), a 7:27 pace. For todays run, that would mean the first six miles at 8-minute pace, the next four or so at 7:27, and the last two at 7:00.
I can tell you right now that I would be not so fond of those last two.
Still, writing it out, it's not a bad plan. But…I'm not training for a marathon. Wonder if the method works for your weekend warrior 5K-competitor. Thoughts?

Tiling a shower might sound like a daunting home improvement task but in fact it has grown in popularity in recent years as many UK residents struggle to keep up with the cost of hiring a professional. If you lack DIY experience, however, this doesn't mean that going ahead and tiling a shower yourself is a good idea; always hire a professional tiler if you're in any doubt.
How to Tile a Shower
- Prepare the area. To begin with remove everything from the bathroom that might get in the way; To help you assess your DIY skills and ability, or to see if you've got what it takes, just look over the following step-by-step instructions on how to tile a shower wall or cubicle:u're already facing a small working space so make it as clutter-free as possible before you start tiling a shower. If necessary, remove the pan and ceiling of the shower cubicle as well before getting started.
- Count your tiles and gauge the space available. Make sure you have enough tiles before you begin – you don't want to be left in the lurch midway through the project, as you have to time laying and drying pretty accurately. Think about where you will sit/crouch/stand during the laying and make sure there is enough room so you can get to all your materials (which should be readily available in the bathroom) as and when you need.
- Fit your sturdy cement board backer. Like dry-wall installation, this cement backer will help you to keep your tiles level while providing a strong framework for the laying process. Mark your desired layout with pencil first, and remember to leave at least a 1mm gap between each tile for grout application. Cut holes for the shower head, tray and other fittings, and leave to dry for at least forty-eight hours after completion.
- Lay the tiles. Mix and apply your (water resistant) tile adhesive in a single row first, then start at the bottom of the cubicle or area and work your way up. Always follow the instructions on the pack provided when tiling a shower cubicle, and dampen your backboard with a wet cloth beforehand to prevent the laid tiles from becoming brittle too quickly. Always leave each row twenty-four hours to dry before starting the next one.
- Grout the applied tiles. Grout comes ready-made in most application tubes so shouldn't take more than a few hours to do. Use a soft sponge to smooth the grout into all the joints, and wipe off any excess before leaving to dry and set for at least three days.
- Clean the area. Once all that is done, your shower should be fully tiled and almost ready to use. Before you turn the tap on, however, give the area a quick clean to scrub off any chemicals left-over from the application.
Remember, although applying and laying tiles yourself will save a fair bit of cash off your final shower tiling bill, DIY isn't for everyone; and if it will only result in a shoddy job that will have to be re-done anyway, then you're only wasting your own time and money.
Be confident that you have the skills and experience before getting started; and if not, there's nothing wrong with hiring a professional builder or contractor to do the job for you. They are trained to use all the correct equipment and necessary materials, and can even throw in extras like tiling a shower tray or laying shower floor tiles as part of a package deal – so don't jump on the DIY bandwagon unless you're absolutely certain you can pull off the desired result!

I left London a little over a month ago to go back home for a spur of the moment visit home to Auckland. Sometimes when it all gets a bit overwhelming the best thing to do is to spend time with friends and family. First meal out with family is at the Fo Guang Buddhist Temple
For those vegetarians and vegans this place a winner with delicious mains ad mouth-watering desserts all very affordable this place is a must visit.
My trip back home was an interesting one. Living in England I don't often cross the Atlantic to go back too New Zeeland as the flight is such a killer and not mention that they are 11 hours ahead of us. So, the jetlag will usually stick around for about a week until your body starts training itself to go to sleep at the right time again.
Some say you can never really go home! I'm not really sure what they mean by that. I do have to say being back home in my parents' house after being away for so long was like being a teenager again. My little sister was also back from Melbourne for 2 weeks during my trip and stayed at the family home as well which was amazing, but you forget about the little things you fight about when your all living back at home.
During my stay, I caught up with all my old friends some of them recently moved back from London and some were kind enough to come home from Australia and South Island. It's amazing how much life has changed. When you live in London you get so caught up with work, going travelling and catching up with people and going to different events in London that your time goes so quickly and before you know it 5 years have passed. It was almost like being back home, but home was on steroids as there were so many buildings being built and torn down, the traffic increased by quadrupole and did I mention the food prices had shot up in price (an avocado cost $6 that's equivalent to £3 per avocado)!
It also let me see things in a much different light also. Many of my friends have a can-do attitude I suppose that's just the kiwi way but many of them gave me good advice on life, work, love and just general adulting which gave me a lot of food for thought. After living in London for almost 10 years now there are many things that you come to accept such as not driving, living in small spaces, not having children until much later in life and always feeling like you always must be somewhere. I guess after living in those conditions there are other parts of life that you come to accept without realising. Seeing family made me realise that things don't need to be so hard. Seeing friends made me realise that there are things you should not accept. Seeing both and seeing NZ life has made me realise that I shouldn't wait another 4 years before my next visit.

"When angels trumpet the onset of the Apocalypse, it won't be the high-tone notes of a triumphant cavalry charge nor a precious baroque flourish. It will be a slow, mournful dirge, a sort of 'brown note of the soul' designed to shake the last lingering twinges of humanity from those left behind, a note to confirm that things are about to get much, much worse." If you're quiet, you can hear the monster breathing.
Note: The above comes verbatim from the notes I took last night during The Antlers' set at Lincoln Hall. I present this seeming non-sequitur as a concrete example of the evocative, if perhaps dark, places one's mind wanders as The Antlers perform. If I recall, I was trying to search for a metaphor for Peter Silberman's voice, and failed.
The day The Antlers came to Chicago's Lincoln Hall was a hot, sweaty day. After a historically brutal winter, Chicago has pulled the full bi-polar switch: gone from a barren, unlivable wasteland to a place so abundant with heat and potential, it is dangerous to life all over again. Outside Lincoln Hall, one could hear the echoing bass notes of Pride Parade-after parties. Standing still on a street corner was enough to break a sweat. Overhead the clear skies were heavy with a sort of magnetic gravity that causes thunderstorms to appear out of nowhere, dangerous but also a welcome respite from the heat and gathered grime of the day. While the environment outside threatened to consume, inside a different kind of danger lurked. Bathed in cool blue and purple light, The Antlers wove a sort of methadone cocoon, protecting the audience from the ravages outside, but also leading us into a dark, unsettled place.
The Antlers opened with the same three-song cycle that begins their new album, Familiars, released two weeks prior. Languid and tentative, the new album trudges along at a sometimes ponderous pace, but in the concert setting, the songs blossomed into vibrant life. Guitarist, singer, and songwriter Peter Silberman is backed by two multi-instrumentalists (keys, trumpet, French horn, etc.) — including remarkably coiffed James Dean look-a-like Darby Cicci — and Michael Lerner on drums and percussion. For a relatively limited lineup, the quartet produces a rich and diverse sound. The gently swaying pace of a song like "Hotel" has a hypnotic effect, blurring one's vision and letting the mind wander to pretty, sometimes dangerous places.
Nothing this sad should be so beautiful. But there lies the unique quality of The Antlers. Over the course of four albums, including their breakout success, Hospice, the group has maintained a consistent output of similarly dark but pleasing music. This is cat nip for those of us prone to melancholy. After the three new songs, Darby Cicci intoned the first twinkling notes of Hospice standout "Kettering". As Silberman, half-sung/half-whispered the opening lines, "I wish that I'd know in that first minute we met/ The un-payable debt that owed," a shiver went up my spine. As that song built toward its crescendo, it embodied the true nature of catharsis. From all that dark, from all that pain, expression becomes an act of emptying, of cleansing.
There was a point in time, just a few years ago, when Silberman was walking around, entirely unknown, but possessing that voice, that otherworldly, impossibly emotional but precise voice. On albums he (obviously) sounds great, but he has the sort of range and tone that makes one wonder if it could actually be real. In live performance, not only does he hit the outrageous highs and lows of a song like "Parade", but he adds emphasis and flourish that improves on the original. As a performer, he is entrancing. Providing lead guitar and vocals, everything flows through him. Despite the emotional power of his music, he is strangely detached. His face is often placid and expressionless, not as if he isn't paying attention, but as if he's having an out-of-body experience, somewhere between zen euphoria and the sort of 1,000-yard stare that presumably comes from performing, nay living, such relentlessly heartbreaking music night after night. What his faces hides, his body betrays. Bent at the waist, he swings like a rusted hinge, almost buckling in two as if by force of will he can fire waves of energy into the audience. During subdued musical passages of a song like "Parade", he sways in time, becoming the soulful melody as much as he is performing it.
The Antlers' dark performance wasn't without moments of levity. The sold-out crowd was remarkably hushed and tame through most of the show, prompting Cicci to twice comment between songs: "It's sooooo quiet in here." When Silberman (and then Cicci) fumbled the opening bar of "Drift Drive" and affably apologized, the crowd and band seemed to lighten up. Silberman remarked that the performance is the "World Cup of The Antlers," which prompted a round of cheers and the chant "U-S-A U-S-A," which Silberman put a quick end to. As the evening progressed, particularly exuberant (drunk) members of the crowd yelled out more and more, but lacking any drunken wit kept repeating variations of "Chicago loves you!" Simple and to the point. As the band finished the set, Silberman offered a quick and earnest thank you to the crowd, mentioning that Chicago has been supportive from the beginning. He also shouted out the young man in the front row wearing homemade cardboard antlers. "He has been wearing them all night," Silberman noted. "That takes courage."
The set list was heavy on songs from the new album. In fact, they played the entirety of Familiars, interspersed with Hospice favorites "Kettering", "Sylvia", and "Epilogue" and "Drift Dive" from 2012's Undersea. They didn't touch critical favorite Burst Apart until the encore, when they brought the house down with inspired renditions of "I Don't Want Love" and "Putting the Dog to Sleep". Relying on new material and avoiding more radio-friendly songs, like "Bear" or "Two", can sometimes be a dangerous choice. But in the case of The Antlers, the new songs have such a unified tone and feel that the performance was sewn together seamlessly. The extra songs they incorporated didn't distract or disrupt and instead added to the emotional heft of the show. Remarkable live performers, The Antlers more than justify the expense and trouble of attending a live show. Separate from the world, they shaped a new reality, a stolen moment in time safe from the danger outside but haunted by the perils of looking within.
Set List:
Drift Dive
I Don't Want Love
Putting the Dog to Sleep
