Mapping the Screens at 7th Street / Metro Center
April 24, 2013 11 Comments
Over the past few months, a number of screens have been added to the upper level of the 7th Street / Metro Center station. Since the Expo Line opened a year ago, there are now four lines sharing this station, and the screens show departure information for the Blue and Expo Lines (which are on the upper level), and the Red and Purple Lines (on the lower level).
Unfortunately, many of these screens have been added in less-than-useful places or show less-than-useful information.
Take, for example, these two screens that show you departure times on your way out of the station (presumably, after you've gotten off of the train), rather than on your way in.
Every day, when I get off the Expo Line and prepare to transfer to the Red Line, I (and a mad rush of commuters) practically run over to the stairs to peer down at the lower level in hopes that my train is not already sitting there, ready to close its doors as I'm stuck in a crowd trying to make my way downstairs. Every day, hanging from the ceiling just above me are two screens, both of which show departure times for Expo Line, which I just got off.
I've always thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be nice if that screen showed the Red Line times instead?" Then, I could simply look up and know that my train wouldn't be leaving for another 4 minutes and I'd have no reason to rush, letting those who did need to hurry tap their cards and get down the stairs before me. I started looking around the station and I realized there are a ton of screens, but they often show riders info for the lines they just got off, rather than the lines they might be going to.
So I decided to map out the screens and try to determine a more useful way to display the same information, just by changing what is on each screen.

It Took A Minute (One Direction Group Story)
Group Story With...
Enjoy! ❤
✝May The Force Be With You✝
Don't Be A Drag Just Be A Queen!
Chapter 1
Chapter 1- Carter
Age: Just turned 19
Looks: http://m.weheartit.com/entry/28520918
Personality: Outgoing, rebellious, carefree, always laughing, unique
*Loves: *One Direction but is more a fan of the 90's band 'NSYNCH' Loves My Little Pony and every superhero movie there could be. Loves history and cop shows. Adores the show Friends. Doesn't have many friends but the few she has she loves to death.
Dislikes: Closed spaces, commitment, closed-minded people
Family: Strict. She has 12 other siblings and none is allowed to be themselves. She's closest with her brother Hollis who's a flaming gay but isn't allowed to be himself around his uptight family. She feels like an outsider in her own home and dreams of moving out.
Room: http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m659u8h2Fw1qfs2qho1_500.jpg
And in third place... One Direction! it still rung through my mind. Me and my younger brother Hollis had snuck down stairs just to watch our favorite group come up short on British X-Factor. He cursed the screen, knowing it must be rigged.
"Hi welcome to Starbucks how can I help you?" I ask with a cheeky 'seller-smile'. The middle aged woman juggles her two blackberrys and ear piece while I looked to her expectantly.
"Um..." She says distracted. I look down at my classic evergreen uniform... Any day now... I tapped my foot impatiently, my smile growing more and more forced.
"What time are you coming home?" Mum texts. I look down, doesn't she realize I'm working?
"When works over... Why?" I wonder when she expects me to study. It was nearly December and I was head first in Fresham year of college. It was not walk in the park. She wouldn't know, she was pregnant with my brother Joseph at age 17.
"I need ur help with the baby, can u get off early?" Suddenly I'm much more appreciative of the busy woman's stallling. Anything to get away from home. The reason I work so hard for my grades is to avoid being the 19 year old mother. Mum won't ever realize this. She's too consumed in household chores.
"Caramel Frappashino please" the woman finally speaks up. I nod, clicking a few buttons on my cash register and motioning her towards the other counter.
I'm completely done with this life I've been leading. Single, bored, one of 13 kids... I mean what can I do? The five boys who hve consumed me and my brother wouldnt like me! Plus, Louis is taken... Well I mean so are some of the others... Alright yes, I have a little crush on Louis Tomlinson... Why I'm revealing this to myself- I don't even know. All I know is he's taken and always will be. An I'll be here working at Starbucks and dreading when I'd have to step though that doorway and be home.

DeShawn Smith, 29, of Second Street in Patterson was charged at 1:03 a.m. with second degree battery domestic violence. He and his girlfriend had argued earlier in the day and he beat her that evening. While she defended herself with pepper spray because he had beaten her before, it was not enough, Chief Patrick LaSalle said.
She was released from the hospital after receiving prenatal care and treatment for facial and nose fractures, the chief said.
Smith posted a $250,000 bond and was released.
Elsewhere, Jeremy Allemond, 30, of Kem Street in Patterson was arrested Saturday at 4:49 a.m. for aggravated burglary, aggravated battery and criminal damage to property.
Sheriff Mark Hebert said a deputy was called to Tabu Bar in Amelia where he learned from the complainant and witnesses that the bar was being closed down for the night when suspects were banging on the back door. Upon opening the door, the complainant and witness were confronted by two suspects. One of them entered the bar and began fighting with complainant.
During the altercation, Allemond struck the complainant with a 2-by-4 board on the leg. He then was observed taking a bank bag with an undetermined amount of cash and fleeing from the scene.
Allemond was located at 300 Camille St. in Patterson, where he was arrested. He remained incarcerated this morning with no bond set.
Also in Patterson, Barron Michael Young, 21, of Senette Street in Centerville was charged at 9:03 p.m. Friday for possession of a Schedule IV controlled dangerous substance, open container and littering.
He was arrested at the Sonic parking lot in Patterson after a caller advised a vehicle had been seen driving the wrong way on a nearby street and littering, LaSalle said.
Young posted a $3,000 bond and was released.
Sheriff's deputies also arrested Brandi D. Anthony, 36, of Fairview Street in Bayou Vista at 12:54 p.m. Friday for theft by shoplifting after a deputy was called to the Bayou Vista Wal-Mart. Store security said Anthony was observed concealing a pair of sandals valued at $9.98 and leaving the store without paying, Hebert said.
She was issued a summons to appear in court.
Misael Garcia, 22, of Lake-view Drive in Amelia was arrested at 12:55 a.m. today for theft.
A deputy was called to Blondie's Lounge in Amelia after Garcia was observed going into a storeroom and taking two beers valued at $10.
When suspect was told by the manager to pay for the beer, he had no money, the sheriff said.
Garcia was arrested and issued a summons to appear in court.

When it comes to the holidays, Santa always has his secrets. Here's two that have to do with travel.
The holiday season gets a bad rap as a taxing time to take off for vacation. But it doesn't have to be, as there are two pockets of opportunity that every smart traveler should know about. They are called "dead zones," the dry travel periods between Thanksgiving and Christmas and just after New Year's. Look for hotels to try to woo guests with lower rates and other perks.
For instance, in New York City, the value driven Wolcott Hotel near the Empire State Building is offering starting rates from $150 from December 16th through the 26th and $120 a night in January. This includes continental breakfast and access to the fitness center.
For a quick holiday getaway an hour or so outside the city, get in the spirit with the "December Delight" package at the legendary Mohonk Mountain House. This Victorian castle offers rates starting at $178 per person, per night, based on double occupancy. Available midweek from November 26th through December 20th, this special includes breakfast buffet and dinner along with afternoon tea and cookies.
If your idea of a Christmas tree is a swaying palm, get away to the tropics with low rates on a high end island with a visit to Anguilla's Anacaona Boutique Hotel. Rates start at $347.50 per person for three nights' stay and $465 per person for four nights' stay, based on double occupancy. Single rates are also available.
Stays include a full Caribbean breakfast for two and a welcome "rum punch" cocktail. The deal is good for travel between now and December 21st.

Venture Right: Our Guiding Philosophy
Great venture capital investing requires the ability to see opportunity where others see challenge. Company builders, market experts and excellent board members are words that describe venture done "right." These are words that describe Menlo Ventures.
How do we know? We asked our entrepreneurs, limited partners and many others in our ecosystem what makes us stand out. They told us it's how we work with our entrepreneurs. We're straight shooters. We have their back – even when times get tough.
We are more than partners. We are allies.
Venture investing is all about discovery and partnership, transforming vision into reality.
We know this well. We've had decades of successful exits—70 public companies and more than 100 mergers and acquisitions since 1976. Plus, entrepreneurs keep coming back to us—20 CEOs in our current portfolio are serial entrepreneurs. And 90% of our founders were in place at the time of exit. That's a number that few other firms can match.
When we commit, we go all-in, serving on our companies' boards with unparalleled dedication and passion. In fact, our board counsel is Menlo's number one added value, our entrepreneurs tell us. They appreciate our decades of experience: our partners who are engineers, patent holders, company founders, and thought leaders with great connections.
Entrepreneurs have tons of venture capitalists to choose from. They choose Menlo because of how we do business.
We don't just invest.
We bring time, energy and passion.

Chaweng is the beach on Koh Samui where you will find most bars, discos, clubs and pubs. This is where you should head if you are a "party animal". Chaweng Beach Road is 6-7 km long, so it may be wise to consider a taxi if you are going between two places. Remember to always negotiate the price before you enter the taxi so you don't end up in a minor scam situation.
Chaweng is Koh Samui's Party Central. All along the Beach Road you will see sois (streets) leading off into warrens of bars and pubs of varying appeal and popularity. The epicenter of all this hedonism and fun is undoubtedly Soi Green Mango in Central Chaweng, with Soi Reggae, by the lake, coming in a close second.
Before we get too hyperbolic about Chaweng's nightlife it's best to remember that bars close at 02:00 by order of the police so the party curve zooms upward past midnight and peaks a little earlier than some would prefer. And yes, some bars stay open later – those whose owners have friends in high places.
Here are some Chaweng night areas to check out.
THE ISLANDER: Chaweng Beach Road, close to the Soi Green Mango. Canadian owner Dennis Hodgkin son has successfully repeated the winning formula that he used in his Phuket "Islander". An excellent restaurant serving enormous amounts of very good food. The "Daily Menu" is outstanding and incredibly good value for money. Check out the fish and chips and prepare to be amazed. This place also doubles up as a bar and shows all the live sporting events from around the world. Unlike many, the service is fast and polite! One place you cannot go wrong with.
THE GREEN MANGO DISCO: This one of the most famous discos/bars in Samui. It opens at 8 pm but the disco does not get lively until around midnight, and then it gets VERY busy. The DJ's are great, often coming from leading clubs around the world.
The dance area is large and very lively, especially on the stage area, where people like to show off. If you fancy a game of pool before the dancing starts then they have the best-quality pool tables in Samui and it only costs 150 Baht an hour! Once the disco does get going they play popular dance tracks through to techno. As with all clubs in Thailand now, it closes at 2 am. One word of caution, there are a lot of 'katoeys' (lady boys) here who normally hang about near the pool tables, on the opposite side of the bar as you walk in.
SWEET 'N SOUL BAR: Just across the narrow street is a smaller bar, no dance area (people do it standing up!) but open onto the street. Cosy, intimate, dark, popular and crowded! The music is generally more laid-back, (Dire Straits, Chris Rea, Dido etc) and if you can find a seat, it is a good place to land after you've worked up a sweat dancing.
CHRISTY'S CABARET BAR: Christy's Cabaret Bar / Show, with lady boy's or transsexuals has moved again to a non air-conditioned bar and has in a way returned to its roots as a beer bar / cabaret.
THE REGGAE PUB: Samui's first and oldest disco. Alas, now not so popular as it was a few years ago. This rarely gets going till about midnight, and, as its name suggests, before this time plays reggae. Midnight, the sounds switch to house and techno and it starts to fill. More popular now with older visitors and those that read old copies of "The Rough Guide". Hipsters and those in the know stick to The Green Mango and the Beach Parties!
Ark Bar: Another Samui institution, the Ark Bar has been at it for quite a few years. Even though it's changed hands several times the bar/restaurant still uses the same methods to draw people in with fire dancers, ambient music, dining and dancing on the beach and a relaxed atmosphere that extends to a child-friendly vibe, even late at night.
Location: Ark Bar Garden Beach Resort, Chaweng Central Beach Road
Bar Solo: Bar Solo has a cool, sleek interior and a great music policy as well as a pool table and six plasma screens showing major sporting events. Solo Bar is a good option to start a night out, when you can take advantage of their 1/2price cocktails from 14:00 – 20:00. Later in the evening, the bar gets lively with DJ's spinning funky, uplifting house and chilled lounge tunes.
Location: Central Chaweng Beach Road, next to Starbucks, Open: 14:00 - 02:00
Three examples stand out when it comes to non-central nightspots: The Bar Ice, on the northern road leading out to Bohput and high on the hill above the Bar Ice, Q Bar entices people to admire the views over Chaweng and enjoy its unique vibe. Springers, on the southernmost part of Chaweng's Beach Road leading out to Lamai, is another nearby hotspot.
Bar Ice: One of the coolest places in town – in more ways than one: The walls, bar, sculptures and seats are made from Canadian ice and are permanent fixtures. And no, it's not the usual tiny, fridge-like arrangement that many ice bars go for; Bar Ice is big enough to hold elephant and tuk tuk sculptures and has separate rooms. The chilliest is kept at -7 degrees, lit by an atmospheric LED lighting system with a full color spectrum. You can chill in the pub-like part and even sit outside in a beer garden if you wish to smoke. A unique and worthwhile experience.
Open: 16:00 – 21:30 Happy Hour with two-for-one cocktails.
Location: On the road heading out of northern Chaweng to the Ring Road. A ten-minute walk from Central Chaweng
Q Bar: Overlooking Chaweng from its northern end, Q Bar stands regal on a hillside. Along the same lines of its Bangkok counterpart (though less snobby), you simply can't miss the huge neon 'Q' up the road from Bar Ice and this place is bopping later on in the evening and in the early hours. International DJ's spin into the night and punters can choose between the music-filled interior or the ultra-cool exterior with those groovy views. Q Bar also holds special parties and fashion events. This is truly a place to see and be seen in. Be careful heading back down the hill, though.
Location: On the hillside above northern Chaweng.
Petch Bucha Thai Boxing Stadium: This large stadium near the Reggae Pub is the centre of Muay Thai boxing in Samui. Starting at 21:00 and going on until midnight, fights here are the real thing, unlike some semi-staged efforts at several tourist centers. Seat prices vary but in reality it's much the same experience buying a bleacher pew as in the 'VIP' section, perhaps better. It's a noisy, thrilling and sometimes shocking evening of thrills and spills. Bar available. (Read more about Thai Boxing in Chaweng...) Location: at the entrance of Soi Reggae , Fights: start at 21:00
BEACH PARTIES: Take your ease with tribal harmony! Once upon a time...it was The Full Moon marathon over at Koh Pha Ngan (pronounced " pan gan"...unless you have watched "The Beach", when you will call it "pan-yan" for some odd reason)Now there is The Black Moon Party, The No Moon Party and The Freedom Beat Beach Party. All have the same basic theme: get stoned, paint something on your body, interact with humankind, wriggle about, crash out and go home. Two problems. You have to get to Koh Pha Ngan by boat. Come back this way too. First boat back is at 6.00 am. so if it is raining or you are NOT a happy bunny, you're stuck! Second problem: the place is crawling with police (many in plain-clothes)...and others (particularly lady boys) who are just waiting for you to get so stoned that they can remove your money/watch/camera/Walkman etc.
LAKE VIEW PARTIES: The Black Moon Party and Half Moon Party is another alternative. This is well-organized, with open beach pavilions to crash/shelter in, toilets, food and drink stalls, proper parking for cars and bikes and a cheap and regular set of taxis running from Chaweng. Try this before you decide to go across the water.
Bar girls: Prostitution is present in almost all parts of Thailand, and also on Koh Samui. However, the phenomenon is mainly confined to a few bar areas in Chaweng and Lamai. If you want to avoid these areas, it is no problem at all. Prostitution is formally illegal in Thailand, but still fairly widely accepted. However, it is strictly forbidden to buy sexual services of people less than eighteen years of age and this can result in a very significant term of imprisonment. Do not forget to venereal diseases (STD) including HIV and AIDS also are present on Koh Samui. We urge everyone to be careful and not to get anything unwanted with your home.
What to Do at Lamai Beach
Smaller than Chaweng, the scene at Lamai has everything from the ubiquitous bar beers to discos, music venues, and even lady boxing. There's lots of foot stomping at Fusion and a few genuine pubs as well as restaurant/bars for those who like munching as they booze.
Fusion : On Lamai's main street is the ever popular Fusion nightclub. Featuring two excellent resident DJs the music ranges from acid jazz to funky house and suits the darkly atmospheric club. Shake the night away on Fusion's heaving dance floor or people watch in one of the comfortable seating areas. This is where the after hour denizens congregate.
Location: Main Street Open: 18:00 – late
Super Sub Club: Located just behind Fusion nightclub, this cavernous venue has plenty of pounding techno and house music to keep revellers awake. Sub has an excellent selection of drinks and a large beer garden outside with a huge TV screen to keep sports fans happy.
Location: Main Road, Lamai. Open: 21:00 – 02:00
Chill In: Chill In on Lamai Beach is popular with tourists and residents alike due to its relaxed atmosphere, chilled-out music and range of seating areas. You can chose to chill on large comfortable bamboo chairs, swing in a hammock or lie on the beach on a tradition Thai 'mon' – triangular cushion. Chill In also serves food all day at fairly reasonable prices and has a good drinks menu. Location: Lamai Beach Open: 08:00 – 02:00
Shamrock Pub: Next to Bauhaus Bistro in central Lamai is Shamrock Pub, favorites with football fans but not the place to go if it's a quiet night you're after. There's live rock six nights a week and live sports on the TV on Saturdays. Shamrock also features a professional pool tables, darts, lots of Irish beer, pub food and a good crack. Location: Main Road, Lamai Open: 09:30 – 02:00
Outback Bar: Styled like an outback saloon without walls, lots of bar stools and Australian and Thai beer make this the perfect place to perch and watch the world go by. Live sports shown and allegedly this is the place for the best English breakfast around.
Location: Lamai Beach Road Open: 14:00 – 02:00
Smooth Pub: Slightly south of outback bar is the Smooth Pub. Don't let this venue's cave-like appearance put you off; there's live music every night, starting around 22:00 and the musicians are up for a jam anytime, in case you have itchy fingers.
Location: Lamai Main Street Open: 16:00 – 02:00
Bar Beers by McDonalds: There are a bunch of bar beers (yes, bar beers, this is Thailand) to the side of McDonalds, some sporting dancing poles, with names like Sexy Lady, Holly-Wood, Why Not – all playing their own music at various volumes – producing a head-splitting cacophony. In high season this is a happening place.
Location: By McDonald's Main Street
Thai Boxing # 1 (Muay Thai): Thailand's most famous sport and a must-see for any visitor Muay Thai is hosted by two different venues in Lamai. Lamai Stadium runs fights on Monday nights starting at 20:30. Expect to see lots of hopping around, the occasional bit of action and a lot of male (sometimes female) pride getting pounded.
Location: Soi Haad Lamai Monday nights starting 20:30
Thai Boxing # 2: For a less traditional but hugely entertaining experience the small boxing ring opposite Fusion Nightclub on the Main Street presents lady Thai boxing on Saturday nights. Entry is free – just buy a drink at one of the surrounding Go-Go bars. Each Saturday there are several bouts of lady boxing, men boxing and if you're really lucky the hilarious sight of lady boy boxing – once seen never forgotten! Get there early to ensure a good view.
Location: Main Street Starts: 21:30
Red Fox Too: For regulars, this is the best bar in Lamai, even if it is sometimes the most dysfunctional one. A sign outside states 'Bad jokes told in a strange dialect' and this just about sums up the bar owner's role in life. A weekly host to the area's Hash House Harriers, the Red Fox also has Sunday roasts later on in the afternoon. It's the friendly ambience that keeps people coming back and the cocktail-mix of British and Thai hospitality, carefree hum our and beer is an addictive one.
Location: Just off the main drag up a small road opposite the Billabong bar
Beach Republic: An ambitious beachside location, Beach Republic incorporates lazy, poolside dining, chilled-out music, very modern design and pioneering tapas and mains menus. The scene here is decidedly cool and the Republic throws events with international DJ's and also has movie nights. Call for information.
Location: Beach Republic residences - North of Lamai Beach off the Ring Road – look for the signs
Tel: 077 458 100 Open: 08:00 – 23:00
The Club: Popular with Hi-So Thais, The Club isn't the most rocking venue around but it does have a good beach ambience and a unique feel to it. If sipping cocktails beach-and-poolside is your thing, away from the madness and girlie bars, this is a decent option.
Location: North of Lamai on the Ring Road to Chaweng opposite Buddy Hotel
What to Do at Night in Bophut & Fisherman's Village
The centre of Bophut is called Fisherman's Village and yes, you can still see a few old salts around the pier but make no mistake about it, the whole centre of town is now dominated by upmarket boutiques and restaurants.
It's simple to explore nightlife in Bophut; either take a right or a left at the pier. A left-hand turn will take you to the heart of the action whereas going right leads to a few pretty good restaurants and select guesthouses and eventually to the road to Bangrak.
There are no Go-Go's, girlie bars or dodgy massage parlours here and as a result the atmosphere is much more laid back and friendly.
Karma Sutra: This is a well-run bar/restaurant/boutique right on the corner at Bophut Pier. A converted wooden Chinese shop house, the interior is attractively decorated and fitted out with wood. There's a friendly buzz to the place and it's light years away from the bawdy atmosphere of a typical Chaweng or Lamai bar. Meals served all day.
Location: Bophut Pier , Open: 08:00 – 01:00 , Tel: 077-425198
Sirocco: Located in an old teak converted Chinese shop-house, close to the pier, this bar takes one back to the 60's era. Background Beatles or jazz music played at just the right level so as not to disturb any conversation helps one relax as you sip cocktails or dine on good snack food. The staff members here are friendly and the atmosphere perfect for a little time out from the beach.
Location: Bophut Centre , Open: 12:00 – late. Closed Tuesdays
The Pier: A classy-looking, black-themed restaurant with views out over the Gulf of Thailand. Thai and international dishes with an emphasis on seafood are served up by young, chic-looking staff members. An exterior wooden staircase takes diners up into a comfortable and breezy eating area. Expect to pay more.
Location: next to Bophut Pier Open: 11:00 – 24:00
Gecko Village: A very pleasant Bali-style beachside setting enhances one of Samui's most musically astute bars. Resident DJ Gary G plays a range of house and ambient tunes throughout the week and hosts the Gecko's weekly Sunday Session party, which kicks off at 14:00 and regularly features big name guest DJ's and live percussionists. There's also a Full Moon Warm Up Party and the resort has its own speedboat to get revelers over to Koh Pha Ngan afterwards. The Gecko has bungalows for rent but they can get very noisy on party nights. Location: Route 4169, just east of Bophut, Open: 08:00 – 02:00 ,Tel: 077-245554
Emerald Irish Pub: With a beautiful sea view, Irish Beer (it's Irish owned) and English breakfasts as well as all-day pub food, this is a good place to chill amongst the genuine Irish pub fittings. If you're after a livelier atmosphere go along on Friday evenings when the Emerald hosts live music.
Location: Central Bophut , Open: 11:00 – 02:00
The Crow's Nest: Another beachfront pub with great views out over the Gulf of Thailand to Koh Phangan. The Crow's Nest has sports coverage, draft beers, cocktails and a welcoming staff along with delicious sea breezes. Location: Central Bophut , Open: 16:00 – 02:00
The Pub : Almost identical to the Crow's Nest next door, The Pub is nevertheless busier most nights. Its simple set up – one long bar, a few tables and a couple of TV's – attracts a lot of regular punters. The British pub grub is high quality and their Sunday roasts are particularly popular. Music is never too loud and the conversation amusing.
Location: Central Bophut. , Open: 11:00 – 02:00
The Billabong Surf Club : The Billabong ensures that it fulfils all the rules of any good Aussie pub: lots of sport on TV, free flowing beer, including VB, a suitably rowdy atmosphere and plenty of pies! It's also the official clubhouse of the Samui Simians Rugby Club, so anyone looking for a game or just wanting to talk about one, can contact the Simians there. There are also a couple of sea-view rooms for rent upstairs.
Location: Central Bophut , Open: 09:00 – 02:00, Tel: 077-430144
The Frog and Gecko: Owned and managed by long-term expats Graeme and Raphael, who work hard to ensure everyone enjoys themselves, the F&G is busy most nights, but packed on Wednesdays for their pub quiz – so get there around 20:00 to ensure a seat. Musically, expect lots of quality 70's tunes, Brit Pop, rock and punk. The Thai food and Indian curries are highly recommended. With sports TV and pool table. Location: Central Bophut Open: 11:00 – 02:00
Admiral Lord Nelson's Pub: A more traditional than trendy English pub with special events shared between the Bophut and Bang Rak locations. Pub grub, Thai food, onscreen sports and friendly service – and of course a good range of beer – are all good reasons to check this place out. Apartments for rent upstairs.
Location: Central Bophut
Bob Marley Pub: There had to be one hadn't there? In this case the Bob Marley is a couple of bamboo tables and chairs near the beach and a friendly barman.
Location: Down the side alley after the Billabong. Follow the sign.
Bakubung: One of the best sunset-watching venues around Bophut, Bakubung is a café/restaurant/bar in a garden, seaside setting. The absolutely perfect chill-out spot, Bakubung is not necessarily a nightlife spot but is certainly a place to appreciate the evening breezes in stylish comfort.
Location: On the Bophut-Bang Rak Road, Open: 10:00 – 21:30 , Tel: 084 636 9090
Irish Times: The Irish Times offers a huge number of popular draft beers, including of course Guinness. The bar also has an extensive food menu featuring foreign and Thai food. Run by those clever people from Tropical Murphy's, you can expect quality.
Location: On the ring road, beside Bandon hospital. , Open: 09:00 – 02:00
What to Do at Night in Maenam
Many will tell you that Maenam is a dead-end as far as nightlife goes. This is not entirely true. Sure it doesn't have trendy discos, a-gogo-bars and the like, but it certainly isn't dead.
It has some great pubs (bars) and is one place where having a quiet drink with your partner or friends needn't necessarily be land based. Not only that, the hotels and resorts in the area, often have exciting night-time entertainment options that will certainly keep you up till the 'wee-hours'.
The Lazy Coconut: Run by a troika of friends, The Lazy Coconut is pretty much the only happening pub in Maenam. It's a fairly large place with outside and inside seating, a pool table, darts board and sports on TV. Featuring all-day breakfasts, an unpretentious menu and lots of beer, nothing is over complicated at the Lazy Coconut – perhaps that's how it got its name. With the occasional live band, DJ's and regular barbecues there'll likely be something happening the night you visit.
Location: On Ring Road opposite Siam City Bank
Style: Pub , Cost: Affordable, Tel: 084 689 0128, 089 651 8414 , Open: 12:00 – 01:00
Rim Talay Beach Bar: Surely our most frequented and popular venue, with tables and sun beds scattered among the many coconut palms that shade's our spectacular beach. The bar serves a fabulous selection for snack meals and tropical cocktails to compliment your island experience. The beach bar is the perfect place to enjoy a sun downer.
Location: at the beachfront of Santiburi Dusit Resort , Style: Beach Bar , Cost: Pricey , Open: 10:00 – 22:00
Taksin Lounge : This is a perfect venue to relax with an aperitif or after dinner drink while enjoying live music from the resident band six nights a week.
Location: Santiburi Dusit Resort, Style: Lounge bar Cost: Pricey , Open: 10:00 – 24:00

RACINE — The large campaign bus and U-Haul truck spotted around Racine in Meigs County and Gallipolis in Gallia County on Monday was in town to deliver supplies to the region following Friday's severe storm.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's campaign delivered donated water and food to the Racine Volunteer Fire Department and the Gallia County Senior Resource Center, along with four other locations throughout southeast Ohio on Monday and will continue with one stop on Tuesday.
In addition to the stop in Meigs County, campaign staff, including Romney Senior Advisor and Ohio State Manager Scott Jennings, were delivering items to locations in Cambridge, Caldwell, Marietta, Portsmouth and Newark.
Jennings estimated that 50 cases of water and more than 1,000 non-perishable food items would be dropped off at each location.
On Sunday, the campaign collected nearly 25,000 bottles of water and thousands of granola bars, trail mix bags, peanut crackers and other food items at its Columbus headquarters.
Federal aid including trucks with water arrived in the state Sunday, after President Barack Obama declared a federal emergency late Saturday in Ohio.

Amber makes a decision, Lily agrees to surgery, and Chance manages to shock Chloe!
Chloe, Katherine, and Chance walk into the coffee house. Kevin comes over and greets him. Chance tells Chloe he came back because he doesn't want to miss out on any more time with the people he loves. Phillip arrives and asks to speak with Chance alone. Chance tells him that he has no questions. Katherine takes Phillip aside and warns him that Ryan is the only father he has ever known - he may never want to talk to him! Katherine goes back to Chloe and Chance and says goodbye. Phillip goes back to the table and says he got an earful from Kay telling him to back off. Chance says there really isn't anything to talk about - he died, and has no bearing on his life. Phillip says he'll steer clear, and leaves. Chloe says to Chance, "You wanted the inside scoop on Genoa City. Who do you want to know about first?" Chance says, "You."
In jail, Daniel tells Jana that the only thing that is going to get him through this is Amber - he's so thankful that she's in his life! He recounts to Jana that the last relationship talk he and Amber had was a bit of a disaster, but he really loves her, and when this is over he's going to propose!
Deacon calls Amber from his room, telling her that the clock is ticking. He says, "Sleep with me and your man goes free!" Room service arrives, and Deacon tells the waiter he's expecting a very special guest tonight!
Inside Jimmy's Bar, Cane holds Lily and tells he's got her! He says he knows about the cancer and she explains the situation. Billy watches and phones Mac, leaving her a message saying he'd like to meet her at the trailer before leaving. Lily tells Cane how much it means to her to have children because of her mom. He says he knows how much she'd love to see her mother in her kids, but she's got to have the surgery and save her own life! Lily is disappointed that he's not supporting her point of view. Cane says her life must be the first priority - Dru wouldn't want her to sacrifice herself! She admits that the way they found the cancer is that she went to the hospital thinking she was pregnant with their child, which makes this so much harder! She pleads with him to go with her to Chicago to find a doctor to harvest her eggs. Cane pleads with her to let him take her back to the hospital!
Mac arrives at the trailer and Billy tells her that he just saw Lily and Cane together at the bar and realized what a jerk he's been. He surprises her with her memorabilia - including the tape of them singing - having been brought to the trailer. They go through her scrapbooks and journal. They start to kiss. They then sit down to look at the Glo By Jabot Kids stuff, and start kissing again. Billy leaps up to turn off his phone and lock the door - he's been waiting six years and doesn't want any interruptions! They begin making love.
Amber goes to the coffee house and engages Kevin in a hypothetical conversation about doing 'something' that would help get Daniel out of jail. Kevin says whatever it is, she shouldn't do it - what if it backfires? Amber leaves and Jana comes in. Kevin fills her in on his strange conversation with Amber. Jana hopes whatever she's planning doesn't blow up in her face.
Still on the patio at the coffee house, Chloe is finishing up the story of how Delia was a surprise to Billy. She says he's a good father, but a horrible husband. She expresses a hope that maybe he'll realize what he's missing and come back. Chance blurts that she's really pretty - why does she want to settle for second best? She speaks about having deep feelings and relationship drama, but Chance admits he's never had any - he's never even had a girlfriend! Chloe is amazed, even more so when he blurts that he's a virgin. She marvels that he's been to war, but never even had a meaningless hook-up! Chloe can't believe that he's this hot and hasn't had sex! She is relieved to find out that he has, however, been kissed many times. Chloe doesn't feel that he's been kissed properly, though, and proceeds to do the honors - which leaves Chance speechless!
Amber arrives at the jail to see Daniel. They express how difficult it is to be apart, Daniel jokes about her putting on her black catsuit and busting him out of there. He turns serious and tells her that when he gets out of there, he wants to spend the rest of his life with her. Amber tells him she loves him.
At the hospital, Neil and Olivia speculate on why Lily would have left the hospital. Liv says they need to get in there and find out if the cancer has spread! Neil wonders where she could be. Katherine appears and they tell her what is going on. Cane and Lily come into the hospital. Neil is relieved to see her but wonders if she knows how worried they've been. She apologizes and says she'll have the surgery. Neil embraces her and looks at Cane. Olivia takes Lily to sign the papers, then returns and thanks Cane for convincing her. Neil blurts that it's not his place to be there! Cane says he's going to go. Katherine follows. Liv tells Neil he was hard on Cane - he refuses to let him off the hook for what he's done. Lily is wheeled up and asks where Cane went, Neil says he's gone. Lily goes off to surgery.
Outside Deacon's door, Amber thinks about Daniel saying he wants to spend the rest of his life with her. Amber pounds on the door and Deacon lets her in. She says, "Let's get this over with." Deacon replies, "Slow down, Sea Biscuit, it's not a race!" Amber glares as Deacon tells her to put on some lingerie - an outfit he had bought for her years ago - he says they're doing this his way! While Amber goes to change, Deacon makes a phone call asking for Daniel. He then sets the receiver down on the nightstand leaving the line open. Amber comes back and they begin to have sex.
Daniel is called to the phone in jail. He listens as Amber says, "Daniel can never know about this Deacon!" Deacon replies, "He'll never hear about it from me. Oh, that feels so good."
Back at Jimmy's Bar, Phillip and Cane run into one another and discuss whether or not he will leave town. Katherine suddenly comes in and walks over to Cane. She tells him he's a good man, and if he's thinking about leaving town, she would like to change his mind!
In the hospital waiting area, Neil looks up as Olivia comes in. He gasps at the expression on her face, saying, "The cancer, it spread, didn't it?" Liv cries and says, "We had to remove everything." They embrace.
Next on The Young and the Restless:
Daniel rages at Amber that while he's sitting in jail, she's off banging some guy she just met!
Chance calls Phillip and asks if they can get together!
Lily, in her hospital bed, cries, "It's not true." Neil says it's good news - a tiny miracle.

Objects - The basic building blocks of OSM data and maps
JOSM helps you to enter data about real-world objects in the OSM geo-database. Despite the overhelming complexity of real-world objects you can map, JOSM provides only three kinds of objects as basic building blocks for maps: nodes, ways, and relations.
You can assign tags to objects. It's the assigned set of tags which makes a node representing a restaurant different from a node representing a church, or a way representing a residential road different from a ways representing a river, or a relation representing a bus route different from a relation representing a cycling route.
Table of Contents
Nodes, ways, and relations
- - a way is a sequence of nodes. Despite its name a way doesn't represent ways in the real-world only. An OSM way is also used to represent a river, the boundaries of a country, or even a building. If a way is closed, i.e. if the last node is the same as the first node, it is also called an area.
- - a relation is an sequence of other objects, for instance a sequence of ways (representing road segments) and nodes (representing bus stops) which represent a bus route. Each object participating in a relation can be assigned a role, for instance stop for a bus stop in the bus route, or forward for a road segment which is part of the bus route from the start to the terminal station.
A tag is a name/value pair assigned to an object. Tags are used to describe an object in detail. If we write foo=bar we mean The tag with key foo is assigned the value bar. Here are some examples:
- name=Main road assigned to a way. This tag indicates that the name of the way is Main road.
- amenity=restaurant assigned to a node. This tag indicates that the node represents a restaurant in the real-world.
- route=bus assigned to a relation. This tag indicates that the relation represents a bus route.
Tags can be combined. An object can carry as many tags as necessary. Here's a more complex example:
highway=living_street name=Main road name:de=Hauptstrasse maxspeed=30 hgv=no oneway=yes
Assigned to a way, this set of tags indicate, that the way represents a living street with name Main road (the German name be Hauptstrasse). Speed is limited to 30km/h and heavy goods vehicles (hgv) are not allowed. Furthermore, it's a one way street.
You are free to assign an object whatever tag you feel necessary. However, there is a list of so called Map Features, i.e. a canonical list of tags with a well-defined meaning which are often used by mappers. Whenever possible you are adviced to stick to these tags because map renderers, routing engines, and other pieces of software rely on them.
In the Properties/Memberships Dialog you can assign tags to an object, remove tags from an object, or edit assigned tags.
Object ids
The OSM server assigns each object a unique number, the object ID or OSM ID. A new object doesn't have an ID (it's ID is 0) until it is uploaded the first time to the OSM server.
- TODO: how to enable displaying of object ids
- TODO: download object you now the id of
- TODO: browse an object with a specific id on the server
Object versions
Each object has a version. The version is incremented whenever the object is uploaded to the server and the OSM server not only stores the most recent version of an object, but it's complete history.
In the History Dialog you can load the history of an object and launch the History Browser?. The History Browser will show you the versions of a particular object.
Alternatively, Tools->Object history redirect you to a page on the OSM website which displays the object history too.

Spice of Life
The case for multi-pace training
By the time they reach their early 30s, most elite runners—at least in theory—are immune to broad-based training revelations. But when Keith Dowling was preparing to train for the 2002 Boston Marathon, poring over the logs of some other top runners led him to something of an epiphany.
Dowling, after a solid showing at the Parkersburg Half Marathon the previous August (1:03:59), had locked into a traditional training program for the New York City Marathon in November. In the final six weeks before the race the program had him doing threshold work to the virtual exclusion of other types of hard workouts. In the Big Apple, Dowling struggled to a 2:19:09.
"Before Parkersburg, I'd done training that included repetitions, threshold, no VO2 workouts but some short races like 8Ks and 5Ks," says Dowling. "It was only when I moved into the next phase of primarily threshold training that I got stale."
Dowling's sub-par New York effort led him to look at his own training from 1996, 2000 Olympic marathoner Rod DeHaven's training, and "pretty much anyone's training that I could find," he says. "I noticed most elite long-distance runners rarely followed a strictly periodized program like Lydiard. That's when I realized that a mixture worked better. In fact, the earlier phase before Parkersburg seemed to work better because it included a little bit of everything."

this wine is well balanced crisp without being too sharp. it is very food friendly , fish and shell fish or even asian food would be good matches. great value for money . reisling is a very underrated grape . ok by me , let the masses drink chardonnay and leave the reisling for the rest of us.
How others rated this review

I love this riesling. For me, it is a perfect combination of being very fruity and floral and a touch sweet up front, but with a nicely dry finish. It is not too acidic at the end, as I find some rieslings can be.
mouthwatering riesling oozes bold, vibrant, thrillingly complex musk peach, lime and floral fruit. (2009 Vintage)
"Unthinkable to go through the summer without a fine Alsace white to savour alongside those powerfully flavoured summer dishes. If you have stomach-space for just one, make it this racy riesling. Schlumberger differ from other Alsace producers in that every wine it produces comes from grapes grown in its own vineyards. Such quality control has paid off and this mouthwatering riesling oozes bold, vibrant, thrillingly complex musk peach, lime and floral fruit. (Jane MacQuitty, The Times, 21st July 2012)"
Just made for pork and ham pies on a summer picnic (2009 Vintage)
"A deep golden hue, with ripe baked-apple fruit, a squeeze of fresh peach, and a full, rounded texture. Just made for pork and ham pies on a summer picnic. (Susy Atkins, The Telegraph, 24th June 2012)"
Big and bold but dry on the end (2009 Vintage)
"Lot and lots of development on the nose. For Riesling habitués only. Big and bold but dry on the end (Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 25th May 2012)"
Deliciously tangy, packed with flavour and texture (2009 Vintage)
"This has some waxy character, lemon and lime fruit and it is nicely pitched and it's filled with fruit on the palate with a hint of salty minerals in the background. Is it technically off-dry? Hard to say as the whooshing weight of acidity sweeps through. Deliciously tangy, packed with flavour and texture(The Wine Gang, April 2012)"

A recent pair of votes by Leitchfield's city council will mean uninterrupted garbage and electrical service for residents.
During its Monday, Dec. 17, meeting the council accepted bids from Kentucky Utilities to be the city's franchised electrical service, and from Ohio County Balefill for solid waste disposal. Both were the only bidders and are the current service providers.
Under the later contract, the city will pay reduced rates of $33.80 per ton to collect standard garbage and $30.80 per ton to collect construction debris from Leitchfield's transfer station and truck it to the Ohio County Landfill at Beaver Dam for disposal. Both rates are $1.02 per ton less than what Balefill currently charges the city, which utilities superintendent Darrell Harrell estimated would save Leitchfield about $50,000 annually.
The contract with KU is a standard 20-year agreement. The contract with Balefill, a 10-year agreement, was approved pending a final review of the written agreement.
In other action the council:
* Approved advertising for bids for a pickup and a one-ton dump truck for the utilities division.
* Learned the state will be replacing the asphalt at North Main and Mill streets with concrete at some point this spring or summer.
* Said formal goodbyes to longtime members Kelly Stevenson and Leon Shaw, who were defeated in re-election bids in November.
Stevenson noted he'd worked with 17 council members, three police chiefs and two fire chiefs during his 14 years on the council, and pointed out some of the city's achievements during that time, such as the softball fields and sidewalks throughout most areas.
Shaw said he believed the city was "on a good path," and that he hoped the next council would continue on that path.
Stevenson and Shaw finished eighth and ninth, respectively, in the 12-person race. Their seats will be taken by political newcomer Harold Thomas Miller, who finished third in the race, and former council member Jerry Schlossser, who finished fourth.
Both will be sworn in in January.

Marie Dolfi, an adoption counselor in Albany, NY, recently posted a list of suggested responses to insensitive comments and questions about adoption titled "Smart Responses to Stupid Adoption Comments". The comments and responses were listed separately for adults and for children. I found it incredibly sad that we have to arm our children with ways to combat misplaced comments or questions about the validity of their families and how they are connected to each other. I have touched on tolerance many times in my blog and found it fitting to address it again after my home state of Washington just approved the marriage equality referendum last week on Election Day.
My close friends, who championed this valiant and successful fight for marriage equality because of their own family values, felt strongly that it made sense for the rest of the state (and country). Apparently, most of the state of Washington, as well as two other states that passed their marriage equality referendums, agreed. We all need to develop tolerance and respect for the differences among us and treat each other as we want to be treated. Families aren't all the same in our country; two parents of the same sex are just as capable of living happy lives and raising healthy, successful children. The stories and statements supporting the referendum that came across my television screen during the political season were inspiring and admirable for any partnership. The people who have strong relationships with partners of the same sex just want what everyone deserves: happiness, freedom, and respect from their community.
I have no intent to incite a political battle when proponents from either side of this issue read my blog, but I do have a strong opinion about how we communicate with each other. Respect is vitally important. When I was young, my parents were extremely strict about respecting other kids' parents, teachers and other adults in positions of authority. They also expected my brother and I to show respect for our own parents, our friends, and each other. As an adult, I have often wondered why every family doesn't teach this important lesson to their children. As an adoptive mother, I have become especially aware of naïve or insensitive questions or comments about my daughter.
As I read through Marie's list, I am grateful that my daughter is resilient and easy-going. She isn't likely to react strongly to questions from insensitive kids that might inflame another, more anxious, adopted child. The list included questions like: "Where are your real parents?" (Suggested response: "I live with my real parents. That's why I call them Mom and Dad.") and "Why did your birth mom give you away? Didn't she want you?" (Suggested responses: "She didn't give me away, she gave me parents." and "Actually I was always wanted. My parents wanted me before I was born."). Keeping a positive attitude and taking an honest approach to any comment about family background is always helpful advice to children, as well as adults.
I would have a problem with many of the comments and questions on the list that thoughtless adults might ask me like: "How much did your child cost?" (Suggested response: "Children don't cost anything. Adoption costs are for services only.") and "Aren't you worried that the birth parents will want their child back?" (Suggested response: "No, we're her parents by law. It is a myth that birthparents frequently come back to reclaim their child."). Some of the questions could be called outrageous or laughable, but the list illustrates my point quite precisely. We all need to think before we speak and be respectful of others.
Gay parents suffer some of the same scrutiny and insensitivity that adoptive parents endure, which is equally disappointing and extremely unfair. I searched the Internet for suggested responses to insensitive comments directed at families with two parents of the same sex but found nothing, except for the infamous comment in 2004 made by former Presidential candidate Mitt Romney who said <read more>

When people ask me about my "real" parents, I calmly reply that I killed them. "Why did you kill them?" "Because they asked insensitive questions like yours."

Here's a cute YouTube video you might appreciate. I understand that moms of adopted kids made it:
I have found that the most intrusive questions regarding my Chinese daughter come from other Chinese immigrants. I have to grin and bear it with those questions, however, because such questions would not be considered rude or intrusive within their culture. Fortunately, my daughter is easy-going and very much at peace with how she came to be part of our family.

I saw you recently signed up here in the bioforum. It is hard to find active interesting people (especially after the crash) here so I contact you, because I am trying to find discussion partners in the field of proteomics, virology, molecular biology, bioinformatics. If you are interested, feel free to connect with me. Are you signed up at researchgate? Do you know it?
It is a web 2.0 platform adapted to the needs of researchers and more active than this forum here. Nevertheless, the combination between researchgate and bioforum is pretty powerful. if you have specific questions.
P.S. my name is Stephanie Manzoni in Researchgate, if you want to add me as a contact
So, I signed up bioforum before about a month, and I had received this PM. Then I had to sign up again recently after appratently a crash, and the same guy sends PM again, thinking I am a new member! I don't mind, but does he have to aslo say the words in red? Shameless indeed!!
Oh oh, I missed this first part - ..It is hard to find active interesting people (especially after the crash) here ..

Have questions about eBooks? Check out our eBook FAQs. Product DescriptionRevelation is an exceptionally intimidating book for most ministers and this problem is compounded by the abusive ends to which the book has often been put. Yet, as Paige Patterson argues the people who sit in the pews are curious about Revelation, and it is the minister's or church leader's job to address that curiosity with courage and what Patterson calls "moxie".
To aid this endeavor, Patterson's Revelation in the New American Commentary series tackles the text by unpacking it pericope-by-pericope. Each pericope is easily accessible, makes arguments based on the Greek text, but presents those discussions using only the English. While the original languages are always useful, they are not necessary to access this commentary. While primary attention is given to the text, Paige does discuss scholarly matters. These, typically, are not of the technical exegetical type but rather deal in the theology derived from the text of Revelation. Thus, Paige's work makes an exegetical argument but does so to posit a theological stance about the book while leaving room for critical interaction from the reader. Paige's work also interacts critically with historic interpreters, drawing on them were useful while discerningly avoiding overly eccentric readings of Revelation. Therefore, Patterson's work is a mid-level, non-technical commentary accessible to teaching laity, ministers, and members with some background in formal biblical studies. Features of the NAC series:
Product Information
Publisher's DescriptionThe New American Commentary series is for the minister or Bible student who wants to understand and expound the Scriptures. Notable features of each volume include:
In the Introduction to his commentary on Revelation, L. Paige Patterson observes the widespread neglect of this closing book of the New Testament. "Aside from a few journal articles and fewer monographs, few homiletical adventurers have evidenced the moxie to enter the eschatological lists and take on this book in the pulpit. This remains the case even though curi- osity abounds in many congregations where parishioners fervently wish that their respective pastors would explain the book to them. Among those who embark on this adventure, most sail no further than the message to the seven churches . . . thus missing the grandeur of the promises that proliferate in chapters 4-22." Patterson writes with the strong conviction that preachers and professors can grasp Revelation and expound it fruitfully. To that end he has writ- ten this commentary, and in doing so, interacts with a wide array of interpreters of Revelation across the centuries. The reader who follows Pattersons interpretive decisions will experience a virtual hermeneutical workshop but far more than that. He will see more clearly than ever the glory and grandeur of Jesus Christ. Author Bio Paige Patterson (Ph.D. New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary) is president and professor of theology and occupies the L.R. Scarborough Chair of Evangelism ("Chair of Fire") at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is also a noted outdoorsman, SCUBA diver, and adventurer, holding membership in Safari Club International and the National Rifle Association. He is author of commentaries on First Corinthians, First Peter, Titus, and Song of Solomon and numerous articles on various aspects of theology.
EndorsementsFrom the first page of this commentary the reader is raptured out of the mundane things of the twenty-first century and deposited into the ancient yet visionary world of the apostle John. Dr. Patterson doesn't merely offer explanations of the frequently baffling content of John's Revelation. Many have attempted that. Rather, through the visions of John he gives us a vision he gives us a vision of our Lord Jesus Christ. Through the prophetic expectations of the apostle, he raises our confident hope in God's judgment of unrighteousness, and pretribulational rapture of the church, the premillenial return of our Lord, and the coming new heavens and earth blessed with God's dwelling. Take up this book and read. Earthly and heavenly things will never seem the same again.

Tour of Britain 2010 Part III
photo by britishcycling.org.uk
WORDS: Dan Craven
ToB Stage 4
Waking heart rate 63 (old stopwatch method again, but yes, that is creeping up far too much for my liking).
Lose one minute and it upsets me.
Lose 26 and it does not feel too bad.
As expected, today's stage was truly epic. Non-stop lumpy roads and tiny lanes made everyone wonder just what on earth the organisers were thinking when they chose this route. Never mind the added rain and wind causing trouble and a few crashes along the way.
For me though, all of that is just details.
Since my little excursion on Sunday, my body has not been fond of me, which kind of explains the last two days performances. As the race was on from the gun I went backwards quickly and found myself at the back of the pack on the first descent. An infamous narrow and wet lane, it was no surprise to suddenly notice some congestion and then, coming around a corner, finding an Italian and his bike sprawled across the road.
This interruption in the group was enough to cause a split and before we knew it, there were about thirty riders down the road, and seventy left behind, which left us to create what is more commonly known as the autobus.
With seventy riders, all having various reasons for being dropped and no chance or no inclination to get back to the front of the race, someone still needs to put in the effort to set the pace on the front so that we do actually make it home. As we were only 25km into a 170km stage, this was going to be a tricky situation.
Very quickly, we dropped from four to fourteen minutes behind the front of the bunch as no one wanted to work, but soon news started coming over our race radios that the race commisaire was threatening us with exclusion from the race if we did not all get together and work to get the the finish line within a reasonable time of the winners.
Wet, tired and demotivated… you are always going to struggle to motivate a bunch of riders to work hard, but somehow we eventually got together and most riders in the group put in a bit of work to get us to the finish. And trust me, we were so glad when that finish line came into sight.
Especially me. I just hope my legs are turning over a bit better in the morrow.

liner notes are great -- good to finally know which Stockhausen he was listening to, Paul Buckmaster's liner notes mention he brought over a copy of the Mixtur / Gruppen LP, and the first night he shows up to crash at Miles' they leave each side playing on repeat for hours. Mixtur is the orchestral piece where each instrument is sent through seperate microphones to filters & ring mods, and the trumpet textures really stick out. He also mentions later seeing a cassette of Hymnen in Miles' Lamborghini.

aha! news! sort of! from paul tingen's Miles Beyond site:
"I've been receiving several e-mails from folk in the US complaining that the On The Corner boxed set has still to turn up, and wanting to know why. I called Sony Legacy, and they tell me that they have production and transportation problems. The box is apparently rather difficult to make, involving a metal casing with embossed imprint, and is made in China. Small shipments are trickling into the US, and the Legacy representative couldn't say where they would be available first. The company doesn't even have promotional copies yet."

nice detail with the raised embossment: they gave the blonde guy all the way on the left a glaringly huge package

I can never look at the guy in the green suit without seeing The Rev. Al Sharpton.

After seeing the packaging, I think I went from mere lust to full-out fuckwant.

Um...then why are there so many advance reviews? I suspect Sony/Legacy is doing some leg-pulling.

They sent out advances (plain white sleeve w/6 CD-Rs in it; I got one, obviously. But they haven't yet sent full-art copies out to reviewers who wrote the thing up based on advances, which they usually do.

Listened to Bill Laswell's 'On The Corner (Subterranean Channel Mix)' from Panthalassa: The Remixes. I can't decide if he improved on Teo Macero's edits by making the track more structured, or if he just made it sound like any Material album. Leaning towards the former.

Andy K was spot on, this really does make you want to stop listening to everything else. I haven't heard any of the other complete sessions boxes-- I figured tight editing is part of what made the originals so great, didn't want to spend the dough-- but this is just incredible.

If anyone's on Ruckus.com (free DRM'd downloads if you've got a .edu e-mail address, probably US-only), the whole thing's there.
