Rated 5 out of 5 by Kleigh414 I Love These Tights!
I was looking for something to wear underneath my jeans that would give me a smooth look instead of having panty lines, like when I wore my regular underwear. I kept hearing about Spanx tights and thought that I'd give them a try. These tights are so comfortable and easy to wear. They aren't tight around my waist either. Being 6'0 tall, I was afraid that I would end up with tights that wouldn't pull up high enough to fit the crotch and waist areas. These tights have plenty of stretch and fit me beautifully. I'd recommend these to anyone looking to buy a pair of comfortable, easy to wear, everyday tights.

text: I moved away from the New Balance Minimus and into these Road Gloves because of the wide band across the foot on the Minimus which caused rubbing and blisters. These first generation Road Gloves are robust but very comfortable. I am able to run upto 30kms on these without any blistering. I have not yet used them on a full 42km but looking forward to it. I would be hesitant in moving to the Road Glove 2 because of the introduction of the overlays. My feet do not react very well to any constriction to the outside of the foot.

Science for Designers: The Transformation of Wholes
The most commonly held and influential idea about design is that it's the art of bringing essentially unrelated parts into a "composition" or an "assembly". The funny thing is, from a scientific point of view, this idea is entirely wrong. A much better idea about design is that it's the transformation of one whole into another whole. Not only is this definition more accurate, it's also crucial for achieving an adaptive design.
Let's talk about the important implications of this distinction between assembly and transformation.
Why is it scientifically wrong to say that design is the "composition" of essentially unrelated elements? Because nothing that works as a complete system is really "essentially unrelated" — though the sciences used to operate more or less successfully from that abstract premise, and much of technology still does. By contrast, the sciences of the last century have taught us more and more about the essential inter-relatedness of the Universe, from the largest scales of the space-time continuum, to the push-pull world of the quantum. In the biological sciences, we've come to understand the multi-layered, historical interdependence of systems, especially evident in the web-like relationships of ecological systems. Wherever we look in nature, we find vast and intricate networks of connections.

The DeKalb County School Board on July 11 approved an amended contract on to allow T-Mobile to install several cell towers at schools throughout the county.
The original proposal from the cellular provider recommended towers at Margaret Harris Center, Briarlake, Brockett, Flat Rock, Jolly, Princeton, Smoke Rise, Narvie J. Harris, Meadowview and Medlock elementary schools, and Lakeside and Martin Luther King Jr. high schools.
However, the board decided to remove Meadowview, Medlock and Brockett elementary schools from the plan after residents expressed concerns about having the towers so close to their homes and to their children.
"It's going to bring a lot of money to the school system so it's very seductive, but folks, we don't know what the health effects are yet," Melinda Lehrer, who lives in the Medlock neighborhood said.
School spokesman Walter Woods said the revenue from the towers would be split by the board with the Parent Teachers Associations of the schools where they were located.
Woods said that, in some cases, the PTA could receive approximately $25,000 and the board could approve it as early as this summer.
Residents of Meadowview, Medlock and Brockett also expressed concern about long-term health effects and how the towers might affect real estate values if the towers were installed in their neighborhood.
"We have heard from basically two communities, and I've always supported a community's right to determine the kind of things they want. These folks have made it very clear that this is the way they feel about the cell towers so I'm supporting their opinion," said board member Donald McChesney, who proposed the amendment.
The board also denied several applications for five-year charter schools based on staff opinions that they were incomplete and represented more of a preliminary draft rather than an action plan.
Applications were presented for DeKalb Preparatory Academy, Ivy Preparatory Academy at DeKalb and Ivy Preparatory Young Men's Leadership Academy.
"We met with the petitioners for two hours to go over the petition with the charter review team and it was a unanimous decision based on the petition that was submitted to us...we felt it was incomplete," Nicole Knighten, director of governmental relations and special projects said of Ivy Preparatory Academy.
The board also moved a vote on the petition from Peachtree Hope Charter School for a five-year charter until a later date. The board recently allowed both the Museum School of Avondale Estates and Peachtree Hope Charter School a one-year waiver to continue operating as they prepared to submit a five-year application. That waiver was revoked from Peachtree Hope after the board found out that the school had fired its management team, SABIS, a global education management organization.
After holding three public hearings on the millage rate, the board also voted unanimously to keep the rate at 22.98 mils.
"I'm just going to make one comment," Vice-Chairman Paul Womack said. "We have not increased the millage since 2003."

Tooth Fairy Now Leaves an Average of $3 Per Tooth, Up From $2.60 in 2011
Visa Creates Free App for Parents to Determine Their Own Payment Amount
FOSTER CITY, Calif., March 5, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Economic conditions in the U.S. are improving in at least one sector – children who receive money from the Tooth Fairy. A survey released by Visa shows that the Tooth Fairy left an average of $3.00 per tooth last year, an increase of 15% over the $2.60 left in 2011.
"The Tooth Fairy may be the canary in the economic coal mine. She's showing signs of life by leaving 40 cents more per tooth this year," said Jason Alderman, Senior Director of Global Financial Education, Visa Inc. "This is not only good news for kids, but an ideal teachable moment for parents to engage their children in thinking about how to budget their windfall by saving a portion," Alderman added.
To help parents answer the perennial question of how much their children should receive from the Tooth Fairy, Visa has created a new mobile app and online calculator that recommends an appropriate amount to leave for each tooth.
The free app and calculator uses Visa's survey data and factors in demographics such as gender, age, home state, income and education levels to formulate how much money the Tooth Fairy is leaving in comparable households. The app is available for iPhones and iPads at the iTunes Store, and the calculator is available at: www.PracticalMoneySkills.com/ToothFairy.
Additional findings in the survey include:
The calculator is part of Visa's free, award-winning financial education program, Practical Money Skills for Life, which reaches millions of people around the world each year. Launched in 1995, the program is now available in 10 languages in more than 30 countries. At Practical Money Skills for Life, educators, parents and students can access free educational resources including personal finance articles, games, lesson plans, and more.
*The survey results are based on 2,000 telephone interviews conducted nationally from July 13 – July 17, 2012 in cooperation with GfK Roper's Omnibus Service "OmniTel." The margin of error is +/-4 percentage points.
About Visa Inc.

The world's northernmost village, Honningsvag is the gateway to the North Cape. It is a completely modern fishing harbor set in a land of forests, fjord waters, and crashing waterfalls. The Cape is 20 miles from Honningsvag across a stark and rocky tundra landscape, where large herds of reindeer graze on sparse grasses in the summer. This desolate terrain dotted with small lakes is the only area in Norway where landscape and vegetation are genuinely arctic in character.
As shore excursions to be offered in this port are not yet confirmed, below is a list of those offered previously. We make every effort to have excursions finalized at least 240 days in advance of sailing, and often sooner, so please check back regularly.
The giant King Crab was introduced to the Barents Sea by Russian scientists during the 1960's. The crab thrived in these waters and spread quite rapidly to the west where it can now be found along the North Norwegian coast. As the number of this species is in the millions, it naturally consumes a great deal and there is the concern that it may have an impact on the local ecosystem. Due to its large numbers, controlled fishing is now allowed. It is said to be delicious and its meat can compete with that of lobsters, bringing high prices on the commercial market. The King Crab can live to 30 years old, measuring up to 6.5 feet between its claws and weigh as much as 22 pounds. The catch in the crab pots will however, most likely be smaller, between 6 and 15 pounds.
This adventure will depart the pier for a short walk to the North Cape Adventure Center, where you will receive a security briefing and the equipment required for the tour. Your comfortable and approved flotation suit will protect you against low temperatures, and serve as a body-sized life jacket at the same time. After a brief stroll, board the deep-sea raft with your driver/guide and set off towards the Sarnesfjord to inspect the crab-pots. Along the way, you will have the chance to take photos of the King Crab once the pots have been pulled so don't forget to bring your camera.
Once you have completed checking the crab pots you will continue to shore to Lavvo Camp; which is a Sami tent with an open fire in the middle of the tent and you sit on the ground on reindeer skins. In the tent the crabs will be prepared and cooked for you to enjoy!
Continue back in the rafts to Honningsvåg where you will end the adventure part of the tour and turn in your floatation suit. Next, you visit the Artico Ice Bar. At the Artico Ice Bar, the magic of winter, complete with ice and snow has been simulated in this indoor environment, including the temperature, a cool 23 degrees Fahrenheit. You will be provided with proper clothing before entering the bar where everything is made of pure ice from the lakes of Lappland. Enjoy your time with a complimentary non-alcoholic beverage. When you are done relaxing; take a short walk through the center of Honningsvåg and then back to the pier where your tour concludes.
Please note: This tour includes a moderate amount of activity. The tour is not available to guests who utilize a wheelchair, those with heart conditions or mobility concerns. Participants should be in good physical condition and anyone under the influence of drugs or alcohol will not be allowed on the tour. Minimum age to participate is 4 years old and guests under 18 years of age must be accompanied by an adult parent or guardian. Each guest must sign a waiver form before being permitted to participate in the tour. Warm clothing and flat, sturdy walking shoes are recommended.

So I Can Grow by Cold Showers
For this supremely entertaining episode of Room 205 director Michael Reich and set designer Tamarra Younis worked with director of photography Jeffrey Peters and editor Forrest Borie to create an arresting video triptych of a Victorian rose garden, brutalist architecture and negative white space. From finery to form to finality...this might be one of the finest episodes we've collaborated on yet.
Jonathan Weinberg, Jessie Clavin, Brian Davila and Renee Adams formed Cold Showers in late summer 2010, (with recent addition of Chris King supporting on guitar). Their pop songs are shaded by darker overtones, offering despairing minimalist lyrics that bring a sense of a bleaker tomorrow, today. The dreamy, angular and sometimes aggressive guitar work, layered with primitive percussion and low flying synthesizers coalesce in a driving darkwave sound. Satisfying influences from Ultravox and Savage Republic to Joy Division, The Pixies and Los Angeles-era X, Cold Showers create the ideal soundtrack to fall in-and-out of love.

The Alley on Eagle Street in North Adams apparently closed its doors last Sunday, Jan. 24, according to a post by on Facebook via Greg Roach. Keith Noguiera and his father, Jack, opened the nightclub in September 2008 but ran into problems with the city at first trying to stage music acts because of the residences along the street, as well as getting patrons in for its limited sandwich and luncheon offerings. It often wasn't open during posted hours, leading a commenter back in November to wonder if it was still in business. No has posted on its Facebook page since Dec. 16.

the reason I switched from low fire to midfire: I had left a bowl (earthen ware) in the sink over night. My kid washed it and put it in the cabinet. A couple of days later when I took it out to use it a nice green fuzz was covering the unglazed bottom. Yuck!

thanks for those links. I discovered that Hsi-Mei, the teacher of Elizabeth Priddy, is teaching classes here in VA. I am looking into taking from her. When I started working in clay I would use underglaze to create the blue line work look It doesn't work to well. I am now experimenting with oxides. -

I used a green, I think it was called celadon. I put a clear glaze on top. I wasn't impressed with the results. I used a lot of the wash and it seemed to fade. This was at cone 6 on white stone ware. I didn't think to use it with out a top glaze, may try that.
mregecko has much better looking results than I did. -

Proposed shift in Boy Scouts no-gays policy brings furor from both sides
NEW YORK (AP) — The Boy Scouts of America faces intensifying criticism from the left and right over a proposal to move away from a mandatory no-gays membership policy and allow troop sponsors to decide the matter for themselves.
The Human Rights Campaign, a major gay-rights group that initially welcomed the BSA's possible shift, said Thursday that it was inadequate and demanded that the Scouts adopt a nationwide policy to accept gays as scouts and adult leaders.
The HRC said corporations that continued to donate funds to the Scouts if any troops were allowed to discriminate would lose points in an annual evaluation of how major employers deal with gay-related workplace issues.
Meanwhile, conservative groups which support the long-standing no-gays policy asked their followers to flood BSA headquarters with phone calls opposing any change,
Tony Perkins, president of the conservative Family Research Council, urged callers to persist even if they couldn't get through at first.
"The BSA national leadership were not prepared for the thousands of Americans who were shocked to hear that an organization that could always be counted on for standing for what's right was about to cave in to homosexual activists and corporations," Perkins said in an emailed appeal.
"It is so important that you keep the pressure on, to show them how devastating this moral collapse will be for the Scouts and the country," he said.
Similar appeals were made by other conservative groups across the country.The Boy Scouts, who emphatically reaffirmed the no-gays policy just seven months ago, announced on Monday that they were considering a major change. Instead of mandatory exclusion of gays, the different religious and civic groups that sponsor Scout units would be able to decide for themselves how to address the issue — either maintaining the exclusion or opening up their membership. The proposal is expected to be discussed, and possibly voted on, at a meeting of the Scouts' national executive board next week in Texas.
Deron Smith, the Scouts' national spokesman, declined comment on the Human Rights Campaign's announcement and also denied reports that the Scouts were taking a poll to gauge public sentiment on the controversy.
"When we receive calls we allow people to provide feedback, but if the board decides to address this topic, it will be about what is in the best interest of Scouting," Smith said. "Regardless of what people think about this issue, America needs Scouting." Continued...
Many Scout units are sponsored by relatively conservative religious denominations — notably the Roman Catholic Church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and Southern Baptist churches. Catholic and Mormon leaders have withheld official comment on the proposal, but Southern Baptist officials have criticized it.
The Rev. Albert Mohler, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, wrote in a blog post that the new policy "is almost sure to please no one and to lead to disaster for the Scouts."
"Those pressing for a reversal of the national policy are not likely to be satisfied with a local option," he wrote. "They had demanded a national policy mandating the full inclusion of homosexuals throughout Scouting at every level.
"On the other side, those who wanted the current policy to remain in place will now have to reconsider any relationship with the Boy Scouts," Mohler added. "The scale of potential membership loss to the Boy Scouts of America is staggering."
Fred Sainz, a vice president of the Human Rights Campaign, said Scout board members now needed to decide "what kind of America they want to be a part of" — one that frowns on all discrimination or tolerates a degree of it.
"The board has to make a decision one way or another," he said. "The policy proposal they're considering makes the problem worse, not better."
The Human Rights Campaign's president, Chad Griffin, likened the proposed policy change "to a national restaurant chain saying that it will not discriminate at its corporate headquarters, but allow local restaurants to discriminate at will."
To back up its stance, Griffin's organization said it would change the criteria for its annual Corporate Equality Index. To receive a perfect score, companies would have to prohibit philanthropic giving to civic organizations that have a written policy of anti-gay discrimination, or permit its chapters, affiliates, or troops to do so.
Amid pressure from petition campaigns, two corporations — UPS Inc. and Merck & Co. — announced last year they were halting donations to the Scouts until the no-gays policy was changed. For 2011, UPS donated more than $85,000 and Merck gave $30,000 to the BSA and $10,000 to a regional Scout council.

Ms. McLain, I'm sorry to see you go but there has been no hypocrisy. This is what I responded to: "I've seen numerous complaints on this site about other people's perceptions of Douglasville. Perhaps if we stopped allowing posts such as this to be published as "News", people would have a higher opinion of our town." I did not chide you for disagreeing with anyone. I welcome it. I felt the need to simply clarify that Patch does not pass blogs off as news, nor have there been "numerous complaints on this site about other people's perceptions of Douglasville." I will step in when there are inaccurate comments about the site.

I'm officially off of Patch, now and for as long as it remains what it is now. But I wanted to point out 1 thing to you before I go. You talk about wanting everyone to be free to express their opinions & debate, and chide me for disagreeing with someone. Yet when Ms. Crawford's friends attack me for expressing my opinion, you do nothing. This hypocrisy is one of this site's main problems. I hope for your sake you figure it all out.

Welcome, Andris Nelsons
Careless Love: The Virginia Glee Club in the 1950s
There's not a lot to say about the Virginia Glee Club in the later 1950s, seemingly. The group lost one of its more influential directors, Stephen Tuttle, to Harvard in 1952, and saw two directors alternate during the remaining years. There were tours, sure; legend has it there were even panty raids on other campuses. But no LP survives from the period between 1952 for almost 20 years; no big commissioned work exists; nothing remains but a bunch of concert programs.
Except this. The image above is of an acetate recording that was made as a promo record and sent to radio stations. Seems that Donald MacInnis didn't spend much time with his group recording because they spent time trying to get on live radio. We know they were broadcast on WTVR radio, probably as a result of this acetate.
(Aside: an "acetate" is actually made of aluminum—or, in the WWII years, glass—coated with a thin layer of lacquer. You could cut one live, and some did, but you could also copy prerecorded music onto it. It was common to use acetates for promotional recordings when the number of playbacks was unlikely to be high. You can see the aluminum under the black lacquer of this disk around the hole of the record.)
The repertoire on the disk is interesting, too. The Bach is pretty straightforward, but it's followed up by a downright woozy version of "Careless Love," and then by MacInnis's own version of Tom Lehrer's "The Hunting Song." I'm trying to imagine that on a Glee Club program today. In fact, I'd pay money to see this paean to hunting, in which the protagonist bags 7 hunters, two game wardens, and a cow, on a modern day program.
It's a fun recording, albeit short, at around 6 and a half minutes.
We've moved!
I've moved to page.ly, who seem on first blush to have the right balance between ease of use and security — at least they mention security in their service description, unlike some of the other WordPress hosting leaders that are out there. The transition has been interesting, and something I did with one of my plugins seems to have dropped a lot of my posts on the floor–the autoposts from FriendFeed, so nothing really lost there. But we're up and running.
And maybe this will be the kick I need to start writing some more. I've got a lot to talk about, so stay tuned.

I wanted to use this for our Christmas card this year, but wiser heads overruled. So here it is for posterity. Physical card recipients, we're a little late but should have cards out in the first week of the new year.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Cousin Frantz
As these things tend to go, my Virginia Glee Club history project has ebbs and flows. Sometimes there's not a lot to write about; sometimes there's too much. Like this past week, when I nailed down the identity of a few presidents of the Glee Club and discovered one was a third cousin.
I should have known that when I found someone named Frantz Hershey, he would turn out to be a relative. It turns out that not only do I know him, I have him in my genealogy. Ezra Frantz Hershey, Jr. was the president of the Glee Club in 1938–1939; he was also the son of E.F. Hershey, first cousin of Milton Hershey and treasurer of the Hershey Chocolate Company for over 40 years. Frantz is therefore my third cousin, twice removed.
As they say, you can't make this stuff up.
I also confirmed Dan Vincent and Thad Polk as presidents of the Club in 1984-85 and 1985-86, thanks to a newly available Cavalier Daily article that showed up in Google News since the last time I checked. Surprisingly, even with those discoveries, I know less about the 1980s presidents than almost any other decade: I'm still missing information about 1980–81, 1981–82, and 1986–87. Always more work to do…
Whither iTunes Plus upgrades (again)
At that point the issue appeared to be faulty infrastructure, since the link was sometimes available and since you could hit the page directly if you bookmarked it.
Today, it looks like the page may be gone for good. I haven't seen it in the store in several weeks, and the bookmark now returns a "Could not complete the iTunes Store request" popup.
While I'm not entirely surprised—the promotion has been running for what, four years?—I'm disappointed. Because this is what I see in my smart playlist that contains the old, "FairPlay" encrypted, DRMed iTunes Store downloads:
That's right. 671 tracks, in about 178 albums, that were never made available for upgrade through the iTunes Plus page. I know, because every time something was made available in Plus, I paid the 30 cents per track or $3 per album to get my music out of DRM jail.
So my question to Apple is: what happened? Did the rest of the music never get "plussed" because of the labels? Or did you just forget?
I've read some speculation that iTunes Match is the new "upgrade to iTunes Plus". If so, I'm still out of luck, because I have more than 25,000 songs in my library—all purchased legally, I might add, though some came from eMusic or Amazon, or were ripped from CDs or vinyl that I own.
So let's see: I'm stuck with a bunch of DRMed music that I can't unDRM, contrary to Apple's iTunes Plus promises, and I can't take advantage of the other legal path offered to me because I've been too good a music customer.
Is it any wonder that people just say "screw it" and download music for free?
Default to the right thing.
One of the things that makes me nuts is when a product gets the default settings wrong and makes me do work to make it do the right thing.
This happens more often than you'd think. Example 1: the stereo in my new car. I love the GTI for a lot of things, including the ride and the compactness of it. But I am really growing to dislike the way they did the stereo. Why? The default behavior when I turn on the car. It should remember that when I turned it off I was listening to music through the phone (either Bluetooth or the dock connector) and go back to that channel. But it doesn't. Instead, its logic seems to be:
- There's nothing on the dock connector!
- There's nothing on Bluetooth!
- So let's go back to the other thing we were listening to–the satellite radio.
Except, the reason there's nothing on Bluetooth is that it takes about 30–45 seconds to pair a phone with the car, and the designers surely knew that. So why wouldn't they just have step 2 wait for a while? That way I wouldn't have to fiddle with the settings every time I get in the car.
(Why don't I just plug the phone into the dock connector before I start the car? That works for about 30–45 seconds; then when the Bluetooth connection is established, the phone gets confused and stops playing back through the dock connector!)
The problem with this scenario is that it's not obvious when you look at any of these pieces that they're wrong. When you consider the component level, any of a number of choices look like they could be the right one. It's only when you stitch them all together, and think about how the user would use them, that the right behavior becomes apparent.
I'm pretty sure there's a product management law that describes this principle, something like don't make me do more work than I have to. But it's astonishing to me how often people, and products, get it wrong.
Breaking silence
My posting on this blog has deteriorated even from my low standards of the past few years. The blog made it to 10; it might not make it to 15.
I still love writing, and I'm not closing a door here any time soon. But I should probably acknowledge what is increasingly obvious: my energy, passion, and time are being spent elsewhere.
There's a few reasons for that. My work at Veracode has grown increasingly to consume my better energies and thoughts. That's good; where there were parts of it that used to be unrewarding, things are now at a point where I can take my whole energy and apply it and see a difference being made. I'm heading a group now and relearning the challenges, and rewards, of managing people as well as products.
The other big reason is my family. I have two kids now, and staying ahead of them means using my whole energy and intellect at home too. And that's turning out to be rewarding in ways I couldn't have dreamed seven years ago.
But… I still miss writing. So maybe I'll start to make a little room at the edges for drafting my thoughts into words, maybe trying to make sense of some of the things I'm working on. It's good practice for speaking sensibly and well, and it's good to exercise those muscles more often. We'll see.
First month driving report: 2012 VW GTI
Long time readers of the blog may be surprised to learn that, when it was time to purchase a new car, I got a new Volkswagen GTI. After all, I had a very poor experience with my 2003 Passat, which even before I drove it off the lot suffered from a broken windshield wiper and later experienced several ignition coil failures while I was driving.
But the company has come a long way in the last ten years, and I've been very pleased with the month (and about 1500 miles) I've spent behind the wheel of my new GTI. Specific notes:
- I'm too grandfatherly a driver to really appreciate how fast this thing can get off the line, but it definitely comes in handy when you're trying to merge.
- I haven't really tried "launch control" — the feature that lets you go from 0 – 60 in less than 7 seconds — but it looks like fun.
- The car is pretty comfortable. I spent sixteen hours in it this past weekend and was less fatigued and sore than after shorter drives in my Passat.
- Mileage is acceptable. I posted 30.9 MPG driving from DC to Boston in light Sunday traffic, and a lower 28.9 MPG in summer Saturday driving on the way down. In town I regularly get better than 25MPG between my house and my office.
- I love the convenience of integrated Bluetooth in the audio stack. It's perfect for phone. However…
- …integrated Bluetooth for audio has some problems. Due either to a GTI bug or to my iPhone 4s, I usually only get one audio channel. So if I'm in the car for any length of time I plug it into the dock connector instead.
- Cargo room is pretty good for my needs. I remember my 1996 Golf being more spacious, but that's probably just because I drove that car before I drove the Passat with its more capacious trunk. As long as I'm not taking a family of four on a long trip it's just fine.
So yeah, I'm kind of glad I gave Volkswagen another chance. So far it's paying off well.
New mix: An attic space overgrown
I wasn't expecting to do another mix so soon after the last one (the business), but this one was kicking around for a while. As always, I was throwing songs I liked to listen to into a temporary playlist called "next," but couldn't figure out how to link them all together. Then one day I heard a recording of Kenyan girls singing (like so much these days, it surfaced out of my library on shuffle), and I said "Hmm." I threw a handful of short world music songs into the mix (from an album of Tuvan throat singing, an Internet-curated collection of African music, and a historic field recording of the Bera pygmies from the 1950s), shuffled them about until I got the right order, and before long I had something that seemed set to shuffle into the ear in the same way that the songs had wormed their way into my mind. An attic space overgrown (also on Art of the Mix) was the result.
The mix:
- Chemirocha [Kipsigis] w/Chemutoi Ketienya & Girls – Kenyan Songs and Strings (Kenyan Songs and Strings)
- Strange – R.E.M. (Document)
- Rolling – Soul Coughing (El Oso)
- Vessel – Zola Jesus (Conatus)
- Bodhisattva Vow – Beastie Boys (Ill Communication)
- Right On – The Roots (How I Got Over)
- Yraazhy Kys (The Singing Girl) – Shu-De (Voices From The Distant Steppe)
- The Eraser – Christian Scott (Yesterday You Said Tomorrow)
- Harrowdown Hill – Thom Yorke (The Eraser)
- Jean-Baptiste à la fenêtre – Sonic Youth (Simon Werner a Disparu)
- Tshetlha Di Kae – School Girls In Kayne (Tswana and Sotho Voices)
- Half Way To Crazy – The Jesus & Mary Chain (Automatic)
- Infinity Guitars – Sleigh Bells (Treats)
- Staircase – Radiohead (The Daily Mail & Staircase)
- One Big Holiday – My Morning Jacket (It Still Moves)
- Skipping Song – Bera Pygmies (Music Of The Rainforest Pygmies)
- Antenna – Sonic Youth (The Eternal)
- Hikikomori – Zola Jesus (Conatus)
- Silver Rider – Robert Plant (Band of Joy)
- You See Everything – Low (C'mon)
- Moorestown – Sun Kil Moon (April)
Track notes:
- I finally heard the original version of "Strange" (on Wire's Pink Flag) last year, and while I love it, it made me appreciate the R.E.M. version I heard in high school–bravura, loud, beery, and outré.
- It's a pity that Mike Doughty has disavowed the Soul Coughing discography, because tunes like "Rolling" were made for delicious cognitive dissonance–the luxury and assonance of the words and the thick beats…
- Zola Jesus was a discovery for me about this time last year. "Vessel" is the strangest arrangement of the album, with Nika Roza Danilova's voice hocketing into the echoing void at the opening over a sort of middle-period Dead Can Dance accompaniment. And that's just the opening.
- I miss Adam Yauch.
- "Right On": Who knew that Joanna Newsom made such a good chorus for hip-hop?
- Christian Scott's "The Eraser," its strikingly original jazz arrangement of Thom Yorke's original, has been in heavy repeat since I heard the album last year. The whole album is worth checking out.
- "Harrowdown Hill" gives you an opportunity to hear Yorke's original glitchy percussion against the jazz acoustic original. Not as starkly tense as some of Radiohead's earlier (or later) works, it feels a little more personal but still despairing.
- Sonic Youth's final(?) recording, a soundtrack, carries enormous tension throughout it even if you don't understand the cinematic context of the songs, which, um, I don't. Still absorbing.
- I dug out "Automatic" the other day–still a great album all these years later.
- I found Sleigh Bells thanks to Molly Young's plug for the band (she plays the gum-chewing cheerleader in the video for this song). I like the second album better as an album but "Infinity Guitars" is still an astonishing kick to the head.
- Someday Radiohead will make a full album that "Staircase" fits into and I'll be a happy man.
- My Morning Jacket's It Still Moves was the last of the early albums and the one I love best, I think. This one reminds me of growing up in the South.
- Robert Plant's cover of "Silver Rider," from the underappreciated Low album The Great Destroyer, is both hypnotic and wholly respectful of the original.
- Low's most recent album is the one I've liked best since The Great Destroyer. "You See Everything" is a great spotlight for Mimi Sparhawk's voice.
- Finally we get to "Moorestown." After the psychedelic wonderland of Ghosts of the Great Highway, it took a long time for Sun Kil Moon's acoustic albums to grow on me. But this one had been waiting to find me, and today I realized it was the closer.
Finally, a note on mixes: Seems to me that I put them together to digest the music I'm listening to and to claim it before it claims me.
1938 Virginia Football Songbook
Amidst disappointing news from the University of Virginia this week, I received an unexpected pleasure in the mail today: a 1938 University song book meant for football games and boxing matches.
As with the 1911 song book I posted about a few years ago, this one contains the lyrics (but no music) to commonly known songs for the student body to sing at sporting events. Unlike the previous edition, 27 years later the repertoire had shrunk to just four songs: "Virginia, Hail, All Hail," "The Cavalier Song," "Hike, Virginia" (with the Carolina lyrics), and of course "The Good Old Song"–first and second verse.
The advertisers list had shrunk too. The sponsoring businesses were just two: Bruton's Barber Shop (Charlottesville's Finest!) and Valley View Greenhouses, both near what is now the Downtown Mall.
For me, as with the previous version, it makes me happy to think about generations past of UVa students singing these song at sporting events. The full photo set is on Flickr: enjoy!
New mix: the business
Did you ever notice how many songs there are about the music business itself? I think the popular music industry is possibly even more self-referential than the newspaper industry (though not nearly as self-referential as the Internet…). I started hearing the connection a few years ago and began collecting examples in a playlist, and I finally have enough to share with you in this mix (see also Art of the Mix).
Of special note is the hip-hop section (coming just after Joe Pernice's wry anti-anthem decrying touring, "We Love the Stage"), featuring "Check the Rhime," origin of "Music industry rule #4080/record company people are shady," followed by Steinski's record industry slag off mix of "Hit the Disco," wrapping up with J-Live's epochal "Them That's Not," which features the most astonishing bit of tempo bending that I'm aware of.

Traveling in London
I flew into London yesterday morning, and my arms aren't tired. And surprisingly the rest of me isn't either. I got almost ten hours of sleep last night, and while I did wake bolt upright at 4:30 this morning I'm still feeling pretty good and not particularly jet lagged. It's been gorgeous here, much nicer than it was when I last visited twelve years ago (granted, that was in February).
Things I've done so far:
- Walked around the south side of Kensington Park, taking in the sights.
- Gotten lost in Harrods.
- Watched people queue around a city block for hours to go to the French Embassy to vote in yesterday's election.
- Learned how much you can pay for unreliable hotel wifi.
- Evaluated several pubs in the vicinity of my hotel and found a keeper.
- Figured out how to navigate the Underground (or reminded myself) and to get my tickets for the National Rail Service.
And that was the first day. Should be a fun trip.
New mix: My heart's beating is all the proof you need.
So there's some party time stuff, both benign and wild; some funny tracks (I dare you to listen to "Bloody" with a straight face); and some contemplative stuff. There's not a lot of deep digging (outside of the Tom Waits/John Lurie track and maybe "Amen Brother," which features what must be the most sampled drum break in the prehistory of hiphop), just some really fun listening. Just right for early spring.
- River of Men – Tom Waits/John Lurie (Fishing With John – Original Music From The Series By John L)
- Getting Better – The Beatles (Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band)
- Just Like Heaven – The Cure (Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me)
