4 years ago, I set out to write healthy recipes for busy people who want to improve their health and body composition without feel stressed out by complicated methods and obscure ingredients. And so Cut the Crap - No Bullsh*t Cookery was created!
I now have a collection of 5 books, each with around 30 recipes in them and I am SO proud of how well they've been received. I hope you will enjoy the latest edition!
Rach x
"I was in a bad routine of eating convenience foods and I very rarely prepared any meals for myself and my son, I either didn't have time or couldn't be bothered hunting down ingredients and then preparing complicated meals from scratch. Rachael's books are simple, honest and full of recipes that even a newbie like me can handle, with ingredients that can be picked up from standard supermarkets."
"I loved the first book Rachael produced, I was really excited to hear she was writing a second book which I pre-ordered because I wanted it as soon as I could. The second book is as good - probably better. Again it's filled with great, easy to follow, tasty recipes. Rachael truly is an expert and I am really looking forward to her next editions of Cut the Crap "
:It's great healthy you're eating without it taking ages or costing the world!"
The first 20 copies of Cut the Crap 5 will be £5.00 - so don't miss out (Regular Price: £10.00)

So This Is Why Marc Jacobs Proposed in a Chipotle
Kevin Mazur/Getty Images
Update, April 9: Last week, Marc Jacobs's now-famous Chipotle proposal went viral. So why did he decide to pop the question at the restaurant chain, of all places? Well, his reasoning actually makes sense. He explained his choice in a new interview with WWD: "It's his favorite restaurant. We have an annual [tradition]," Jacobs said about his fiancé, Char Defrancesco. "I wanted to take him out for a romantic dinner on his birthday and he was like, 'No, I want to go to Chipotle. So I knew I had to [propose] somewhere where he wouldn't suspect that I was going to do that. And then I organized a flash mob to be there, but he didn't know anything about that. So I was successful about that." How can you argue with that logic?
Originally published on April 5: Congratulations are in order: Marc Jacobs is engaged to his boyfriend Char DeFrancesco. But it definitely wasn't your average proposal—the designer orchestrated a flash mob inside a Chipotle before getting down on one knee. Impressive, right?
Luckily, the whole thing was caught on camera, and Jacobs just shared the epic video on Instagram. (Trust us, you won't be disappointed.) So far, the likes of Pat McGrath and Carine Roitfeld have already shared their congratulations in his Instagram comments, and we expect plenty more industry heavyweights to follow suit. Scroll down to see his engagement video.

Fevicol reinforces its leadership with its new Fevicol Marine TVC.
The new creative from Ogilvy highlights its unmatched bonding quality even in water
Mumbai, March 12, 2018
Fevicol, the largest selling brand of adhesives in India, has rolled out a new witty TV commercial reinforcing its leadership and unmatched product superiority. The ad film reiterates Fevicol Marine's strong bond in water with the tagline 'Asli Waterproof Adhesive'.
The new TVC developed by Ogilvy, aims to communicate that Fevicol is the most technologically superior brand that can deliver unmatched waterproof bonding and does so in its own unique way.
Mr. Vivek Sharma, CMO, Pidilite Industries Ltd, said, "Fevicol Marine is an advanced product and highlights Fevicol's technological prowess. Post the successful 'boatman' campaign, we wanted to highlight the brand promise in an entertaining manner that has become synonymous with Fevicol advertising. The new marine TVC aims to showcase the product superiority of Fevicol Marine compared to other offerings in the market."
Commenting on the campaign, Mr. Piyush Pandey, Executive Chairman and Creative director, South Asia, Ogilvy & Mather, says, "The campaign keeps in mind that currently most consumers cannot differentiate on wood adhesives performance and technology. The idea was to present the differentiation in an easy and humorous manner. Like all Fevicol ads, this TVC also borrows from India and captures the spirit of India."

As promised, here are some photos of the grand opening for Your Big Sister's Closet in the Junction.
I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure that yesterday was probably the most beautiful January day in the history of all January days. For those that don't live here in Toronto, it was totally flats weather and the perfect day for Karen to host her grand opening!
|Front of the store at 3126 Dundas Street West in the Junction
We arrived a little late, but there were still many party-goers and shoppers making their rounds. We were greeted with mini strawberry milkshakes, a macaron tree, a candy bar and many other light refreshments. Blo Bloor Street West Village was on site with Blo's signature braid bar (Alexis was such a sweetheart, and totally worked her magic with the flatiron). The Body Shop was also there with complimentary makeup apps.
|Alexis at the Braid Bar from Blo Bloor West Village
|Allison of Round Raglan Road getting her hair done at the braid bar
|Karen has a fab selection of bags and wide calf boots
|Karen and I <3
The party was a good time all around, and I am beyond ecstatic for Karen and Peter. Your Big Sister's Closet is an absolutely adorable boutique and has a selection that will definitely leave plus-size fashionistas beyond satisfied. If you're in the Junction, be sure to pop by and take a look for yourself.
|Top c/o eShakti
Jeans from Lane Bryant: Ultimate Stretch Sateen Skinny Jeans
Bangles/Ring from: Torrid (older product)
Bag from Call It Spring: Boesen
Flats from Beyond The Rack
WIW: I decided to wear a shirt that I got awhile ago from eShakti. I haven't quite decided if I can rock peplum tops, but I definitely dig the colour. The jeans are BY FAR my favourite jeans in the universe! They are a tad short on me, and have a habit of loosening a teeny bit by the end of the day (as do most jeans) but they are mind-blowingly comfy. If you like your jeans fitted make sure to purchase these at least one size smaller than what you typically wear.
*Disclaimer: I want to be completely up front. Karen is a friend of mine, and I conveniently double up as her graphic designer (I designed the graphics/identity for Your Big Sister's Closet). My opinions are my own but if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

The Cisco Umbrella File Inspection feature expands the visibility and enforcement capabilities of Umbrella, protecting against more attack vectors for more users. The ability to inspect files is performed in the cloud, not on premises, so there is no need for additional hardware or software to be installed. This document consists of three parts, first outlining how to enable file inspection and how to test it. Then we'll go through viewing reports to see any files that were inspected. Lastly, we'll cover how file inspection actually works in the back-end.
Note: The file inspection feature is only available for customers with the Umbrella Insights or Umbrella Platform packages. For more information about packages, see Umbrella Package Comparison. Contact your Cisco account representative with any questions.
Table of Contents
- Features of Umbrella File Inspection
- Enable File Inspection
- Test File Inspection
- Troubleshooting
- Reporting for File Inspection
- How File Inspection Works
Features of Umbrella File Inspection
File inspection is an extension of the Umbrella intelligent proxy's scope and functionality. With this feature enabled, you have the ability to scan files for malicious content hosted on risky domains before those files are downloaded.
A risky domain is neither trusted ("known good") or known to be malicious, but one that could potentially pose a threat because little to no information is known about it.
The file is captured in our proxy, scanned to determine if a threat exists and if so, it's blocked from being downloaded. This can be an explicit download, such as when a user clicks on a link in an email or a download that happens behind the scenes, in so-called 'drive-by download' scenarios. This is reported on in your Umbrella security activity report and the activity search so you can review what was blocked.
The file inspection feature is being rolled out with a few features at a time, essentially we're building it from the ground up, one brick at a time. In this first release of the feature, each file that's inspected is scanned twice. First, it's scanned by an antivirus to determine if it's already known to be malicious and the scanned by Cisco AMP integration, which blocks files with a bad reputations based on checksum.
Enable File Inspection
File inspection can be enabled on a per-policy, per-identity basis but is available for all identities. The intelligent proxy feature is required to be enabled in order to use file inspection, and for new policies, it's enabled by default. We highly recommend enabling SSL Decryption as part of a policy to maximize the benefits of file inspection, although it is not required.
- Navigate to Policies > Management > All Policies and click Add or edit an existing policy.
- If you're creating a new policy, select the Identities that will use file inspection and then click Next.
- When asked what should this policy do, ensure that Inspect Files is selected.
Make sure that the intelligent proxy is enabled. Although not required, we recommend enabling SSL decryption. Adding SSL decryption allows for both types of traffic (secure and insecure) to be proxied and for those files to be inspected. A test scenario with SSL enabled is below.
If you're editing an existing policy, make sure File Inspection is enabled on the summary page after you've enabled the Intelligent Proxy (under Advanced Settings).
Cisco Umbrella Root Certificate
The Cisco Umbrella Root Certificate must be installed on all machines with SSL decryption included in their file inspection policy. For more information, see Cisco Certificate Import.
To test SSL decryption with file inspection, use https://ssl-proxy.opendnstest.com/download/eicar.com
- Click Save.
If you're testing, ensure that the policy with file inspection enabled in it is at or near the top of the policy list in order that the policy takes precedence.
Test File Inspection
From a device that's been enrolled in a policy with File Inspection enabled:
- Browse to http://proxy.opendnstest.com/download/eicar.com.
Browser to https://ssl-proxy.opendnstest.com/download/eicar.com to test the SSL decryption version if enabled in policy.
- You should receive a block page like the one below:
- The diagnostic information covers a bit of detail about which server the file went through.
- Check the reports to ensure it appears as it should. This is covered in the next sections.
If you do not see the block page above, ensure that the policy with File Inspection enabled is higher in the policy order than other policies the enrolled identity(ies) are configured for.
Wait upwards of five minutes before testing again after any policy changes to ensure enough time has passed for the changes to be replicated throughout the Umbrella infrastructure. If problems persist, try clearing the local browser cache on your machine, or even your machine's DNS cache (a reboot will accomplish this).
Beyond that, check to see if you have a local on-prem proxy that is interfering. For more information, see Using Umbrella with an HTTP proxy.
And be sure to that the Cisco Root CA is installed in case of cert errors or files on HTTPS connections not being blocked. For more information, see Cisco Certificate Import Information.
Getting Help
If you encounter any issues with the File Inspection feature, please log a case with Customer Support at: firstname.lastname@example.com
You may want to include the output of the following commands (these commands should be run from a device enrolled in the policy configured for File Inspection):
dig proxy.opendnstest.com
dig debug.opendns.com txt
nslookup proxy.opendnstest.com
nslookup -type=txt debug.opendns.com
You should also include the output of the Umbrella diagnostic to speed up the troubleshooting. See Umbrella Diagnostic Tool.
Reporting for File Inspection
A file that's been inspected and blocked appears in your security logs like any other network event that passes through Umbrella. Both the activity search and the security activity report show file inspection events, but greater detail is found in the security activity report.
Files that were inspected and allowed through because they are safe appear as allowed events in the activity search report without any information about scan results because there is nothing to report.
In the earlier test with eicar.com, if the test worked as expected you should have a result in your security activity report for the identity that matched when doing test. This can be seen in one of two ways.
Security Activity Report for File Inspection
- Navigate to Reporting > Core Reports > Security Activity and using the built-in filters, search for the threat name, which in this example is "EICAR".
- Click Advanced Search and filter for threat, then type 'eicar':
The filter should look like this:
The result will appear compressed in a card, as below:
Expand the card by clicking on it and you will see something like the results below. Because every sample of malware is different, each result will vary based on the malware, the identity triggered and which engine detected it as malicious and so on, but the majority of these fields are consistent between various blocks of files that have been inspected.
The SHA-256 hash is especially helpful in cross-referencing between other security data platforms, or even VirusTotal.
Note: The eicar test virus is scanned by both the antivirus engine and the Cisco AMP engine, and detected by both. All files are scanned by both engines and can be detected by both, one or neither. If a sample is detected by both engines, the Cisco AMP detection takes precedence in the reports.
which domain or IP hosted the suspicious file
the URL at which the suspicious file was found at, if available. Usually the same domain as the destination.
Date & Time
when the suspicious file was downloaded by the user and scanned
which Umbrella security categories matched against this event. It is possible for a file to be malicious or suspicious as per the antivirus scanner and Cisco AMP but not be categorized.
either blocked or allowed
User Agent
the user agent of the browser with which the request was made (http://www.useragentstring.com/pages/useragentstring.php?typ=Browser)
Content Type
the MIME type of the data stream (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Basics_of_HTTP/MIME_types)
SHA-256 Hash
checksum of the file, if available. Typically for Cisco AMP; this is also included in the summary.
Status code
the HTTP code returned from the query (typically 300 or 400)
the name found by the antivirus scanner, where applicable
the referrer URL where available/applicable
Security Activity Report for Activity Search
The Activity Search shows files that were allowed through and files that were blocked. Any page on any website could count as a file—files likes .HTML or .CSS are common. In the earlier test to download the eicar.com test file from proxy.opendnstest.com, other page elements were downloaded but allowed.
On the far right hand side, the ellipsis icon can be expanded for more information. In this instance, the file was allowed.
Clicking "See Full Details" shows as below (click image to zoom):
The results for Cisco AMP are blank, as the file was allowed.
You can also use the filters for the columns in the activity search to show the 'file name' and make it more apparent. First, select "Columns" and expose the 'File Name' which is hidden by default:
Run the report for the last 24 hours and you'll see the results including the file name that was proxied.
How File Inspection Works
It Starts with the Intelligent Proxy
The first thing to understand about how File Inspection works is to that it employs Umbrella's intelligent proxy in order to have some domains proxied through our cloud but not others. The intelligent proxy is a cornerstone of how we do advanced protection in the cloud. For more information, see Enable the Intelligent Proxy.
In Umbrella, when identities, such as networks or roaming computers, are pointed to the Umbrella DNS resolvers and when an internet request is made, the first thing that happens is the DNS resolver determines whether a domain is either allowed (safe), blocked or 'risky.' If it's allowed, you'll get the correct IP address of the domain returned the client. If it's blocked, the IP of our block page lander is returned. If it's 'risky', the resolver returns the IP of the intelligent proxy. The proxy authenticates the client (using redirects to unique domain) and an allowed URL or file is permitted or blocked.
When it comes to file inspection, the intelligent proxy is the 'decision maker' when determining whether a file will be inspected or not. If the intelligent proxy feature is not enabled, it is not possible to use file inspection. In addition, the SSL decryption feature of the intelligent proxy is required in order to scan any files on secure (HTTPS) sites.
How is a File Inspected?
Once a domain deemed 'risky' is passed to the intelligent proxy, there are internal services within the proxy that handle different parts of the request by breaking the request to the domain into individual pieces. For instance, we can block a single URL of a risky domain and allow other URLs within the same risky domain, based on whether we know that URL is known to be bad.
File inspection works similarly and uses two services to scan. In essence, a file hosted on a website is simply another URL, but for file inspection, we determine what type of file it is and scan it to find out more. The request to the file is made from the proxy and when the file is downloaded to the proxy, the file is then passed to both scanners which analyze the file simultaneously.
It's important to note that files are scanned by both engines but if either engine detects it as being known bad or malicious it's blocked. In the example of the eicar test virus earlier, it's scanned and detected by both the antivirus and Cisco AMP. If both engines detect the file, the AMP detection is given a higher priority in the reporting and it will show up as an AMP event with antivirus information listed in the detail.
Cisco Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) scanning
Cisco AMP is built on an extensive collection of real-time threat intelligence and dynamic malware analytics supplied by the Talos Security Intelligence and Research Group, and Threat Grid intelligence feeds. The Cisco AMP engine does not do real time sandboxing, instead, the Cisco AMP integration blocks files with a known bad reputation based on the checksum or hash of the file. The AMP checksum database is comprised of lookup and data from all AMP customers and is a dynamic global community resource shared between customers utilizing the technology.
Antivirus Scanning
The antivirus scanner attempts to scan all files. We begin streaming large files from the proxy to the user after scanning the first 50mb in order to ensure that the user starts receiving the download while scanning continues in the background. As soon as a file is identified as malicious, the connection is terminated. For larger files, the user may initially experience a brief lag, but should still receive the entire file as quickly as normal—unless it's malicious.
Archives (such as .zip or .rar files) will be decompressed to a maximum of five levels of recursion deep. A password-protected archive is not scanned as it cannot be decompressed without the password, however it will be blocked under the category Protected Archive. If there is a scanning error or the file is found to be corrupt or otherwise encrypted, we are blocking that as well. Since we have determined already that the domain could contain risky files, we're taking the safest options when scanning files from those domains.
Once that scanning is complete, the file is either delivered to the customer or the connection is terminated and the user is served the IP of the block page instead of the file they might have been expecting to see.

19 July 2001Hospital Stories
Due to pressure from the home as well as work fronts, here's some more interesting facts and funny's typical to our country -
An Israeli doctor says: "medicine in my country is so advanced,we can take a kidney out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in six weeks."
A German doctor says: "That's nothing! In Germany, we can take a lung out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for work in four weeks."
A Russian doctor says: "In my country medicine is so advanced, we can take half a heart from one person, put it in another, and have them both looking for work in two weeks".
The South African doctor, not to be outdone, said: "Hah, that's nothing. We are about to take an *sshole out of Soweto, put him in the Parliament and half the country will be looking for work the next day."
Actual entires on Mpumalanga (SA) hospital charts:
1. She has no rigors or shaking chills, but her husband states she was very hot in bed last night (what a night it must've been!).
2. Patient has chest pain if she lies on her left side for over a year (so would I Dear, so would I).
3. On the second day the knee was better, and on the third day it disappeared (damn, can the clinic be sued for loosing a knee?).
4. The patient is tearful and crying constantly. She also appears to be depressed (they want me to shoot myself first?).
5. The patient has been depressed since she began seeing me in 1993 (with that analysis, I would definitely change doctors).
6. Discharge status: Alive but without my permission (I thought the choice was mine?).
7. Healthy appearing decrepit 69 year old male, mentally alert but forgetful (if I could only remember what I was going to say?).
8. The patient refused autopsy (yeah, I'm not a training school nor a spares shop).
9. The patient has no previous history of suicides (I should bloody hope not!).
10. Patient has left white blood cells at another hospital (could it be a white person who didn't want to be seen as being racist?).
11.Patient's medical history has been remarkably insignificant with only a 40 pound weight gain in the past three days (I'm on this "How to become obese in three days" home-study course).
12. Patient had waffles for breakfast and anorexia for lunch (how else will we get rid of that waffle?).
13. She is numb from her toes down (it's tough not being in touch with Mother Earth anymore).
14. While in ER, she was examined, X-rated and sent home (we can't have that here!).
15. The skin was moist and dry (make up your mind would ya!).
16. Occasional, constant infrequent headaches (ditto).
17. Patient was alert and unresponsive (hey man, this is good stuff I'm smokin').
18. Rectal examination revealed a normal size thyroid (you weren't gonna try and find that in my throat, were you?).
19. She stated that she had been constipated for most of her life, until she got a divorce (some husbands are like that).
20. I saw your patient today, who is still under our car for physical therapy (who's patient is this now anyway?).
21. Both breasts are equal and reactive to light and accommodation (depending on who's doing what will depend on how accomodating they can be).
22. Examination of genitalia reveals that he is circus sized (like the Elephant Man or better?).
23. The lab test indicated abnormal lover function (has anyone seen Mrs. Bobbit around?).
24. The patient was to have a bowel resection. However, he took a job as a stock broker instead (bad choice I reckon).
25. Skin: somewhat pale but present (leaving white blood cells is one thing, now the skin as well?).
26. The pelvic exam will be done later on the floor (yeah, I'm sure!).
27. Patient was seen in consultation by Dr. Blank, who felt we should sit on the abdomen and I agree (aah, the wonders of new knowledge).
28. Large brown stool ambulating in the hall (call security, quick!).
29.Patient has two teenage children, but no other abnormalities (good for her).
Have a good day now!

A city bus and a firetruck collided in a thunderous crash at a busy Midtown intersection yesterday, injuring 17 people and snarling crosstown traffic.
"The impact was like an explosion. It was very scary," said Gill Pagan, who watched in horror as the city bus appeared to blindly enter the path of the oncoming firetruck.
The intersection at 57th Street and Fifth Avenue was littered with glass after the collision, which authorities declared an accident.
According to the Fire Department, Ladder Co. No. 2 was westbound on West 57th Street at 9:35 a.m., en route to a fire on West 55th Street when it collided with an M-2 bus southbound on Fifth Avenue.
Police Capt. Thomas Jacob said it appeared that the bus driver didn't see the approaching firetruck because another bus blocked his view.
"There was no negligence involved," he said.
Six firefighters riding on the truck were taken to New York Hospital with minor injuries.
Eleven passengers on the bus, including an elderly woman and a pregnant woman, were taken to area hospitals, also with minor injuries.

U.S. stock index futures pointed to a higher open on Tuesday, attempting further recovery from the sharply lower start to the year, as oil prices and the Chinese yuan stabilized.
Dow futures traded about 150 points higher as of 9:21 a.m. ET. Brent crude futures topped $32 a barrel and WTI crude traded above $31.50 a barrel.
The U.S. dollar traded slightly higher against major world currencies, with the euro near $1.085 and the yen at 117.69 yen against the greenback.
Overnight, the Chinese central bank set the yuan mid-point fix at 6.5628 against the dollar, similar to Monday's fix of 6.5626.
Read MoreChina, oil still hanging over Wall Street
"Maybe a little stability is (helping) to bring out some buyers in the context of an oversold market," said Peter Boockvar, chief market analyst at The Lindsey Group. He is watching whether the gains will be sustained throughout Tuesday's session, or attract selling.
Stocks in Europe rebounded, trading more than 1.5 percent higher as oil prices recovered from session lows on Tuesday, while Chinese stocks closed slightly higher after wavering between gains and losses on Tuesday, following a sharp plunge Monday.
"Global investors still remain firmly in risk-averse mode in the near-term as the market focuses switches back to the ongoing slide in the price of crude oil towards $30/barrel. The price of copper has also fallen to new cyclical lows, reinforcing investor concerns over the outlook for global growth," Lee Hardman, currency analyst at Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, said in a report on Tuesday.

I am an Assistant Professor of Statistics at Florida State University. I obtained a PhD in Statistics at Duke University on May, 2012 under the supervision of Prof. David Dunson. Here is the link to my dissertation. Prior to this, I obtained a Bachelors degree in 2006 and a Masters degree in 2008 from Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata.
My research interests center around both theoretical and methodological aspects of Bayesian statistics. I am particularly focused on nonparametric Bayesian foundational theory and methodology in a broad range of areas including density estimation, high-dimensional density regression and variable selection, shape reconstruction, imaging and hierarchical modeling of shapes.
I enjoy developing methodology that has an immediate motivation and impact to a particular application area, while being broadly applicable and leading to foundational theoretical questions. In the nonparametric Bayes paradigm this often involves developing new classes of flexible prior distributions for densities, conditional densities or functions. It is fascinating to explore the structure of the spaces on which the priors are supported while studying how the posterior concentrates as increasing amounts of data are collected. Studying these spaces becomes more challenging outside of unconstrained Euclidean spaces, such as in studying closed surfaces and other shapes, and when the dimension explodes. Much of my ongoing work is based on theoretical investigation of the posterior distribution in Bayesian high-dimensional models, as seemingly innocuous prior choices can lead to misleading inferences in high-dimensional settings.
I enjoy modeling of distributions of objects contained within pixelated images,
with applications ranging from tumor tracking for
targeted radiation therapy,
to classifying cells in the brain, to new
landmark free techniques
for 3d animation and so on. I also take interest in model
based clustering techniques, spatial statistics, particularly in point pattern data modeling
and also datasets subject to preferential sampling.

It is mid-summer and the time of year when the heat and long days are starting to make us feel sluggish and slow. Do you feel like your workouts are lagging and you could use an energy booster? You are not alone. But you can do some easy tricks to get your energy back!
Obviously, exercise helps. This has been proven time and again. Also, we all know that sleeping for the right amount of time, and at the right times, will also help improve your energy level.
Of course, you will also want to make sure you are eating right. Whether it is clean eating or just a healthy diet, be focused on the right kinds of food. Stay away from heavy, fried, fatty foods and certainly avoid processed sugars and carbs.
But most of us already know this and still struggle with maintaining the energy level we want and need to get everything done we have to do. If you are eating healthy, sleeping right, and exercising yet still not finding the boost you want, we have some other thoughts for you.
Here are some (secret) tips on how to get energized:
Yes, it might be hot. But the sun's rays, and the Vitamin D they offer, have wonderful health benefits. Not only that, but light is energizing (there is a reason we turn off the lights to sleep). A few minutes outside can re-energize you for the rest of your day.
Nothing can bring you down faster than piles and piles of paperwork sitting on your desk, kitchen table, or bedside stand. Take a little bit of time to go through, put these papers away, and get your thoughts and to-do list organized. By taking an hour or two to do this, you will walk away feeling lighter and with a clearer head, leaving behind nothing but energy to tackle what you need to do.
Music is therapeutic. Sometimes all you need is a strong beat and some well-loved lyrics to get you in the mood to move. By the way? Sing a long, too. Singing has been shown to increase your energy level.
A little coffee every day is fine, but reaching for Starbucks every day at 3 pm to power through the rest of your day has side effects that won't help your overall health. As Prevention Magazine writes: (source: http://www.prevention.com/health/sleep-energy/7-caffeine-free-ways-boost-your-energy
"… you shouldn't rely on a 7-cup habit to carry you through the day... That's just putting a bandage on your exhaustion. Instead, beat fatigue for real with … out-of-the-box energy boosters."
When your brain is tired and unmotivated, your entire body follows suit. Take some time to challenge yourself and, in the process of stimulating your brain, you will find yourself energized, especially if you are learning something you are passionate about.
Chia seeds have been labelled a super food for a reason. These little seeds are high in fiber, with 11 grams in a one-ounce serving, as well as rich in omega-3 fatty acids and protein. All this means that without sugar you can give your body a huge energy boost while eating smart.
You don't have to make it to the gym for an intense cardio boost to get your energy back. If, mid-day, you are struggling, yawning away, take a moment to walk around or stretch. Stand up, move, and in just 10 minutes you can feel energized for 2 hours afterwards.
Try these energy booster tips. Get the most out of your workouts, continue eating clean and feel on top of your game. You'll be happy you did!

Mister CFH
I was taking a photo of this bottom piece the other day and was thinking that a lot of Aussies have tended to over generalize about what European style is. In short, It's actually super diverse.
For the Australians that haven't come across him, Mister is a Dutch writer from CFH crew. CFH is comprised mainly of many of the Netherlands active stylists that began in the '80s. I find a lot of similarity in the Dutch and Aussie writer mentality and scenes, particularly a lot of parallels can be made between Amsterdam and Melbourne.
Mister has the ability to mix it up on call. He's got style, and burns on brick and steel.

Parties are generally free to say what the terms of their agreement will be. However, there are certain terms that are required of an agreement under the Residential Tenancies Act 1995 (SA) and even where they are not expressly included in the agreement they will be read into any agreement by virtue of the legislation.
Required terms – written agreements
Where an agreement is in writing the following terms must be included under section 49(1)(vi) of the Act:
- amount of rent payable;
- how often rent is to be paid;
- the method by which rent is to be paid;
- amount of bond;
- any agreement reached as to responsibility for rates and charges for water supply;
- responsibility for insurance of the premises and the contents;
- any other terms of the agreement (e.g. whether pets are allowed)
Terms created by the Act – written and verbal or implied agreements
The Residential Tenancies Act 1995 (SA) provides many terms that are included in every residential tenancy agreement (whether the agreement is in writing or not) and these are implied even if not expressly stated in the agreement.
Terms that are created under the Act include, but are not limited to, the following:
- vacant possession of the property by the tenant (s 64);
- quiet enjoyment of the premises by the tenant (s 65);
- that the landlord will take reasonable steps to provide and maintain locks necessary to secure the premises (s 66);
- tenant to keep and return the premises in a reasonable state of cleanliness (s 69);
- no alteration of the premises without written consent from the landlord (s 70);
- if a person is on the premises with the tenant's consent or at their invitation the tenant has vicarious liability for acts resulting in a breach of the agreement by that person (s 75).
Unless they successfully apply to the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (SACAT) for an exemption, the parties to the agreement cannot leave out any mandatory terms, even if they agree to do so [s 119].
Terms that are inconsistent with the Act
It is an offence to enter into an agreement or arrangement that is designed to exclude or circumvent terms created under the Act, and it is not possible to waive rights that are granted under the Act [s 115]. The maximum penalty for entering into an agreement to defeat, evade or prevent the operation of the Residential Tenancies Act 1995 (SA) is $10 000.
Where an inconsistent term exists it will be unenforceable. An example of an inconsistent term is the popular: "All carpets shall be professionally cleaned by the tenant at the termination of the tenancy." This term suggests that even if the carpets are in a clean and reasonable condition they must be professionally cleaned (at the tenant's expense). However, section 69(3) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1995 (SA) simply requires a tenant to leave the premises in a reasonable condition and a reasonable state of cleanliness. Professional carpet cleaning is inconsistent with section 69(3) of the Act and would be unenforceable.
For further examples of inconsistent tenancy agreement terms see the Consumer and Business Services factsheet 'Lease agreement terms inconsistent with the Residential Tenancies Act 1995'.

I am new here. I started playing snooker roughly 3 months ago and I am playing/practicing roughly 3 times a week. I am really enjoying it and I am pretty competitive so anything I do I want to improve.
I have been been practicing getting my cueing straight recently and working on getting my left shoulder (I am right handed) down on to the table and everything in line.
Everyone at the club says I get over the cue nicely and have a very decent stance for a beginner. My problem is I often miss straight shots when practicing to the right of the pocket.
I am slowing down my backswing and I am just wondering what some things this missing to the right could be. I understand its hard to tell without video or anything but just some ideas?
I know I have a bit of a problem with tightening grip during the stroke so I am working on that.
Its weird because I will hit 6 into the middle of the pocket nicely and feels great then miss 5 in a row and nothing feels different to the strokes that hit dead centre.
any ideas are appreciated.

SALT LAKE CITY — In a budget year with about $25 million more thanks to a recently passed 0.5 percent sales tax hike, the Salt Lake City Council on Tuesday finalized the city's $301 million 2018-19 budget with few changes to the mayor's recommendations.
The adopted budget includes the same breakdown for the new sales tax revenue proposed by Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski: about $7.1 million for streets and infrastructure; nearly $6 million for public safety, including $2.2 million for 27 police officers; nearly $5.3 million for transit projects; and more than $4.1 million for affordable housing initiatives. The rest would be held in reserves.
"We are committed to tackling bedrock issues with this budget," Council Chairwoman Erin Mendenhall said in a prepared statement issued after the vote. "The budget funds many needed services and projects, and it works in concert with a possible fall bond vote that would fund major repairs to our road system."
That possible bond vote is next on the City Council's list to consider placing on the November ballot to help fund street reconstruction.
Biskupski didn't attend Tuesday night's meeting, but her deputy chief of staff, David Litvack, applauded the City Council for passing the budget.
"This is just another example of how the administration and the council work well together," Litvack said.
The budget approval came despite protests from a group of about a dozen people from Utahns Against Police Brutality, who held a rally on the steps of the Salt Lake City-County building prior to Tuesday's council meeting to protest the hiring of 27 more police officers.
"Instead of hiring 27 more cops, why don't we put a drug rehab center in Glendale or Rose Park?" Carlos Martinez asked the council prior to the vote. "Get to the real heart of the issue. You think the heart of the issue for crime and drugs is because of lack of police? No, it's because of poverty. It's because of lack of access to resources."
Several more protestors urged city officials to not hire more police, but the City Council moved forward with the budget as proposed. That's despite some council members' previous misgivings with Biskupski not funding the full 50 officers the council previously hoped to hire, though Biskupski and her staff has said she still intends to fund all 50 in future budget years.
Still, the council proceeded with the budget mostly as-is, though they did make some changes or added some specific requests.
Those included some objectives for the $5.3 million for transit funding.1 comment on this story
The council will need to approve an interlocal agreement between the city and Utah Transit Authority to implement enhanced routes for increased coverage in underserved areas, particularly the west side; increase ridership, particularly in the city's downtown core; built out infrastructure on the city's Transit Master Plan routes; and to budget and plan a timeline for service on 1000 North, 600 North, 200 South, 900 South and 2100 South, with 400 South to be implemented last.
Other changes included an additional $2 million to about $1 million previously budgeted to reconstruct 300 West from 600 South to 2100 South in order to bring the city's match to $3 million to qualify for a $12 million federal grant.
They also included an additional $150,000 to hire two new full-time fire department employees.

I want to rub this trailer all over me – Dream House
I think I do, anyways. It's giving off a bit of a The Others/Shutter Island vibe, but I'm hopeful. Those three leads wouldn't do us wrong, right?
Some say that all houses have memories. For one man, his home is the place he would kill to forget. Daniel Craig, Naomi Watts and Rachel Weisz star in Dream House, a suspense thriller about a family that unknowingly moves into a home where grisly murders were committed…only to find themselves the killer's next target. Successful publisher Will Atenton (Craig) quit a high power job in Manhattan to relocate his wife, Libby (Weisz), and two girls to a quaint New England town. But as they settle into their new life, they discover their perfect home was the murder scene of a mother and her children. And the entire city believes it was at the hands of the husband who survived. When Will investigates, he's not sure if he's starting to see ghosts or if the tragic story is just hitting too close to home. His only clues come from Ann Paterson (Watts), a mysterious neighbor who knew those who were shot. And as Will and Ann piece together the haunting puzzle, they must find out who murdered the family in Will's dream house before he returns to kill again.

Who Shakes the Best
Song: Who Shakes the Best
Artist: Candyman
Album: Ain't No Shame in My Game
The early late 80's/early 90's were a very exciting time for hip hop as it was gaining strength as a major force within the business despite (or because of) various content controversies that popped up (from "Cop Killer" to "Me So Horny") and yet, comparatively… it's was all pretty innocent, given the times.
Best known for the pop hit "Knockin' Boots," Candyman's debut album "Ain't No Shame in My Game" was released toward the end of 1990 and enjoyed some success mainly based on that single. I was actually a pretty big fan of the record at the time… it's filled with catchy, albeit goofy, pop hip-hop tunes that really capture THAT time. I pulled the album out and listened to a few tracks recently, it really took me back. I especially was fond of "Who Shakes the Best," a back and forth diss track that is again goofy, yet very, very endearing in its naiveté. It was never a single… just a fun lost jem of an album track, in a time when you bought a full record… not download a single.
Unfortunately for Candyman, his career sank fast. Releasing album after album of critical and commercial failures. Most recently, unfortunately, with "Knockin; Boots 2001: A Sex Odyssey" from 2001. The album included a remake of his solo smash, as well as remixes. Again, critical and commercial failure. And yet this wasn't his first time of re-hashing old songs as his sophomore album contained, you guessed it… "Who Shakes the Best, pt. 2." Hey-hey, you know it.
But I never got any of his other albums, so really can't speak of them honestly. All I know is I dug his first record (he really has a nice flow) and now think upon it as a reminder of a nicer time in the record business. Not artistically per say… just nicer.
Knockin' Boots
Yo! Tone Loc makes a cameo in the intro, I totally forgot that.

Makin' Like a Rug
Song: Makin' Like a Rug
Artist: Eleventh Dream Day
Album: El Moodio
Chicago based Eleventh Dream Day formed in the late 80's, and after a couple independent releases graduated to the majors but never caught on. I was first introduced by the band back in 1993 with the release of "El Moodio," their sixth LP. Mixing straight up rock, elements of punk and rockabilly, Eleventh Dream Day to me were quintessential rock & roll, true, raw, and just plain good.
My introduction to the band came from seeing the video for "Makin' Like a Rug" on 120 Minutes. The domestic drama subject and back and forth vocals of leads Rick Rizzo and Janet Beveridge Bean really wailed, and I picked up the record soon after. The rest of "El Moodio" did not disappoint, with more down and dirty rock that seemed to seep with raw rock and roll energy.
Apparently "El Moodio" was their true stab at rock stardom which didn't happen, and Atlantic Record subsequently dropped them. They returned to an indie and continued to release records. I missed the follow up, "Ursa Major" from 1994 but did get the more moody eighth record entitled um… "Eighth." They've continued to release records, most recently with "Zeroes and Ones" from '06.
I haven't kept tabs on the band since "Eighth," but I must admit… a recent spin of "Makin' Like A Rug," and other killer tracks from "El Moodio" like "That's the Point," "Murder," and "Figure it Out" surely make me want to do a little more research. They're a band that mostly fell through the cracks, making music that "they just don't make like they used to."
I guess they are obscure enough not to have any of their videos on YouTube… unbelievable!

Riding on the Rocket
Song: Riding on the Rocket
Artist: Shonen Knife
Album: Let's Knife!
One of the more endearing acts that came out (at least majorly) of the "alternative" music boom of the early 90's was Shonen Knife, three women from Japan who played punk rock music about jelly beans, bison, Barbie, ice cream, and space travel. Given that this was a time in music when it seemed any odd act could get a record deal, Shonen Knife were truly a standout. With zero pretention and charm to spare… I was a fan immediately. Though admittedly, I lasted for two records… finding the whole thing just a bit too cloying.
"Riding on the Rocket" was my introduction to the band, and can be found on their major label debut "Let's Knife." Check out the video below which really shows how charming and goofy they are. I must say that if you like this song you'll like this whole record… it's very fun, and partly comprised from tracks already released independently in Japan.
I remember Kurt Cobain being a very vocal fan of the band, and they opened for Nirvana for a leg of one of their tours. I sort of can't imagine the more jock fans of Nirvana digging these ladies. Haha. Surprisingly, I didn't realize that the band formed all the way back in 1982, and that they were still releasing records! (Most recently with last year's "fun! fun! fun!")

Longing for Lullabies
Song: Longing for Lullabies
Album: Kleerup
Best known for writing and producing Robyn's recent global mega-hit "With Every Heartbeat," Kleerup is a Swedish musician, formally of "The Meat Boys," whom just released his debut self titled album in May. The album is comprised of tracks he wrote and had other singers do vocals. Included on the album are tracks with Neneh Cherry, Marit Bergman, Lisa Millberg, Titiyo, and current Swedish indie-darling Lykke Li. The Robyn song is also included.
I have been really digging this record and specifically "Longing for Lullabies." The album proves that Kleerup is indeed an electronic producer to watch, though he does seem to have a specific bag of tricks that he re-uses. This is not a bad thing, but if you know "With Every Heartbeat," you'll hear elements in that song in his others. (So to that end, if you liked that song, you'll like this record.) I really dig "Until We Bleed," the Lykke Li track, as well as "Forever," which Neneh Cherry provides writing and vocals too. "Thank You For Nothing" is odd to hear as it's basically an instrumental that created the basis for Cyndi Lauper's "Lay Me Down" from her new album.
Like Sia's "Breathe Me," "Longing for Lullabies" is one of those songs that grabs you immediately. It's very cinematic in that way, and I envision it being featured in a movie or TV show soon. It's quite beautiful, and I can't stop listening to it. Lyrically it's a bit obtuse, but it has a bitter-sweet vibe to it, some sad emotional change with a touch of hope. (Or maybe that's just me reading too much into it… or the beauty of obtuse lyrics, make it your own!)
I'm really digging this record, and as mentioned… if you're a fan of the Robyn track I think you'll really like this. It's not exactly pop music, not exactly techno… it's like singer-songwriter electronica.

One Month Off
Artist: Bloc Party
Album: Intimacy
When will this become the norm? After semi-sneak attack albums from the Raconteurs, Nine Inch Nails, and Beck we have a brand new surprise album from Bloc Party. No strangers to the loss of control that happens with album leaks, Bloc Party saw their sophomore album "A Weekend in the City" leak to the internet over three months before it was set for retail. So they have wised up and taken a bit of the new Radiohead/Nine Inch Nails model and gone digital. Currently you can buy the album as a digital release for $10, or pay $20 and get the digital download immediately, and the physical CD in the mail when it comes out in October. AND, that CD will contain other songs. (which the band has said they don't know what will yet.)
My first reaction (besides "oh nice, a new Bloc Party album!") is to cringe a little at this "you'll get extra songs," "we don't know what yet," thing as it seems clearly to mark the increased insignificance of the album as a complete work. You can't just throw random songs together right? Well the truth is… most artists don't do this, and a "record" is really just a collection of songs. Now, while I am a fan of the album as work of art, my guess is that Bloc Party have a bitter taste in their mouth in regards to this. Given the success and rocket to stardom that "Silent Alarm," their debut, got them, they probably spent a ton of time crafting "A Weekend in the City" and to have it leak JUST as it was finished is awful… but then as the B-sides from the album began to leak, online fans began to say that some of those songs were better, compiled them together and titled it "Another Weekend in the City." So I can see where they might just be frustrated with the lack of control.
All that said… how is "Intimacy?" Well I've only given it two full listens, but my initial impression is very favorable. I'll be honest and say that I got lost in the sea of tunes that was "A Weekend" and "Another Weekend" and while specific songs really popped for me, others just went on. Since the release of "Weekend" the band put out a single, "Flux," that sounded nothing like what the band had done prior. It was practically techno with driving beats and an urgency that wasn't always there with the band before. They have married the new Bloc Party of "Flux" with the Bloc Party of old (a mix of "Silent Alarm" and "Weekend") and creating something new and exciting with "Intimacy."
The album is immediately attention grabbing and holds you throughout. First single "Mercury" is all blips and beats and stuttering voices. And while the lyrics point more inward (lead Kele Okereke apparently just went through a bitter break up) it somehow makes the songwriting more universal. "One Month Off" stopped me in my tracks (okay, I was cleaning the apartment) with its intense beat and hard guitar riff. It sounds a bit new wave, yet very Bloc Party. It's a bitter track, but filled with more life that I thought "Weekend" had in its entirety. It's also totally strange.
Which brings me to my next thought… while Bloc Party have always been just another band in the dance-rock movement with (minor) comparisons to Radiohead, this was really the first time where I thought they might have something Radiohead -worthy in them. They play around a lot with sounds on this record, and yet keep things catchy and moving. If they harnessed their ideas together I think they could do something really out there and brilliant. Am I crazy?
But beyond those lofty goals I think Bloc Party has released a fine collection of tunes here for their third record. And having it be a surprise is the cherry on top.

The Girl You Lost to Cocaine (Sander van Doorn Remix)
Song: The Girl You Lost to Cocaine (Sander van Doorn Remix)
Artist: Sia
Album: The Girl You Lost To Cocaine
Sia is still probably best known for her 2004 single "Breathe Me" which was used in the finale of the HBO series "Six Feet Under." I loved the song (as well as the Mylo remix) but couldn't get into the other tracks I heard from her record, "Colour the Small One." Earlier his year she released her follow up, "Some People Have Real Problems," which I got, listened to, and thought was awful. Well… awful boring. So long Sia.
Well not yet. I randomly found a blog that posted this remix done by Dutch DJ Sander van Doorn. One listen and I was hooked. It gets a bit trancy at times, but it has a great build and fills a boring song with new life. As it happened again… I heard this song at my first Blowoff party… and it's a great four-on-the-floor dance anthem. (and the irony of seeing blissed out guys on drugs dancing to a song called "The Girl You Lost to Cocaine" did not ecscape me.)
I do think Sia has a great commanding voice, but really don't know what I think of her as a songwriter. When the Dido-esque "Breathe Me" was a hit I expected her to expand on that sound and really deliver. But instead she either followed her muse or wanted to defy expectations. Either way, it doesn't work.
This is the only Sander van Doorn remix I've heard, but I did have a chance to listen to his debut album "Supernaturalistic." Unfortunately it's entirely instrumental… and lacks exactly what I seem to be missing in a lot of this club music. Where are the words?! While he does, as mentioned, veer the song into a few vocal free moments, he does employ them at just the right time. It works. So while Sia is so-so, and Sander's right with her, the combo turns out to produce dancefloor bliss! Yay.

Cool video!

The Girlz & Boyz (Vandalism Club Mix)
Song: The Girlz & Boyz (Vandalism Club Mix)
Artist: Brad Hed
Album: Hed Kandi - Twisted Disco 2008
I stopped getting dance compilations a long while ago because most of them were awful. Since I didn't understand the business, with royalties etc., I didn't truly understand why you would get one good song married with a ton of lousy ones from artist that you'd never heard of. But now I realize why… they're cheap! (So while all of those Now! Compilations sell like crazy, they must cost a pretty penny as well.)
My friend David introduced me to this really neat series/company called Hed Kandi that gives you the best of both worlds. While just about every one of their compilations feature an established artist like Hot Chip, Beth Orton, Shirley Bassey, Junkie XL, or Peter, Bjorn, & John, the rest of the CD's have more obscure dance artists that are actually GOOD. It became quite obvious to me that these people knew what they were doing.
The company was started in the U.K. in 1999 by Mark Doyle, whom sold the business to Ministry of Sound. Each one of the releases has a distinct look as helped by the artwork of Jason Brooks. Mostly house music, the company releases different compilations under different titles such as "Serve Chilled," "Twisted Disco," "Beach House," "Disco Heaven," etc. They have since branched out into the fragrance business, as well as clothing and even an airline to Ibiza.
My favorite of the full compilations I've heard thus far (which has been limited admittedly) has been the most recent "Twisted Disco 2008" release. It opens strong with "Let it Go" by Dirty South (never heard of them) includes a new remix of Utah Saints Kate Bush biting 90's single "Something Good," and includes a remix of the Junkie XL track "More." But my favorite track off the record was by someone called Brad Hed (again never heard of him.) "Girlz & Boyz" is straight up driven house that is a party starter for sure. Vandalism does the remix (of "Smash Disco" fame) and I was pretty happy several months back when it was played at my first time attending Blowoff.
If you're interested in getting into house music a little more and don't know where to start I highly recommend these compilations. As mentioned there is SO much garbage out there in regards to dance compilations and Hed Kandi is a safe bet from a group of dance music lovers that know their stuff.

That's Not My Name (Tom Neville Remix)
Song: That's Not My Name (Tom Neville Remix)
Artist: The Ting Tings
Album: That's Not My Name
The Ting Ting's record… which I think is about half good, has still been in pretty constant rotation on my iPod and at work. I think it's some of the best indie-type dance pop that's come down the pike in a while. Aside from the iPod commercial assisted "Shut Up and Let Me Go," other singles "Great DJ" and "That's Not My Name" have been playing over (and over) just about everywhere I go.
Also getting just as much play is this excellent club remix by Tom Neville. It actually slows the song down a bit to fit its beat, which seems odd but totally works. (Most times it's the other way around.) Neville has only recently made a name for himself with remixes for Kelis' "Milkshake" and Mylo's "Destroy Rock & Roll."

When You Touch Me
Song: When You Touch Me
Artist: Freemasons
Album: When You Touch Me
It's taken some time but over the past couple years I have slowly gotten more and more interested in dance/house music, beyond DJ'ing dance parties and the odd workout mix. But like it or not homo culture has always had a strong dance element from disco to more recent circuit parties. And while I am finding myself more interested in dance mixes and club tracks I still ,at times, find it wildly repetitive, and the sometimes lack of vocals totally monotonous and boring.
Yesterday I went with a small group of my favorite people on the planet to help volunteer for the Gay and Lesbian Task Force sponsored "Ascension Dance Party" out on Fire Island Pines. Basically it is a huge afternoon dance party that draws a crowd in the thousands right on the beach. A wood floor is laid down, tickets are upwards of $100 (for good cause!) two tents featuring a regular and VIP bar, private little areas for the homo elite to stand and pose in the shade, and then the crashing surf of the Atlantic just feat from the whole spectacle.
The below video from last years party will give you an idea:
Anyhow, my main point in telling you all of this is that the music really wasn't that good. The DJ for the event Chris Cox is a widely known remixer and DJ. Aside from Rhianna's inescapable "Please Don't Stop the Music" and the great "Let Me Think About it" by Ida Corr the music like all of these dance parties just dragged on thumping away. Now, this does not mean that he needs to play something the whole crowd will know… but can it be a little less monotonous?
Case in point, my friend Artie sent me this great song my the Freemasons, a UK based remix duo whom has reworked tracks by Angie Stone, Fatboy Slim, Luther Vandross, Jamiroquai, Kylie, Moby, and Beyonce. "When You Touch Me" was released as a single back in June and it's just a fun bouncy track that is immediately likable. I didn't know it… but could see myself dancing to it. I suppose that my interest in a great little pop tune skews my likes of deeper trance music. Snore City!
I found that I had a couple of the Freemasons tracks, including their re-do of the Alanis ballad "Uninvited" with vocals by Bailey Tzuke. (Which is good… but the white label remix of the Alanis version is a bit better in my opinion.) They're pretty good, and I'm interested in hearing some of their full albums, which include remixes as well as tracks they have written.
Since I've most recently been finding new dance music that I've been digging (vs. any good rock/alternative music I dig) this Freemasons track with kick off a week of great dance music I think you should know.
This video is SO European…

Lucid Dreams
Song: Lucid Dreams
Artist: Franz Ferdinand
Album: Madden '09 Soundtrack
Franz Ferdinand's as yet untitled third album is one of my most hotly anticipated for the upcoming new year (I know… still a big wait.) but we got a little bone thrown at us as a brand new song was just released that is reportedly on the new record (though not a single.) It will first be officially released on the soundtrack to a football videogame. Huh? Well, apparently there is this popular series of football video games that release about one a year called Madden (insert year.) I know I know… to you video game enthusiast I must sound like a super moron. I suppose it comes across the same as if someone asked me, "Have you heard of this band called the U2? I think they're pretty great and may go places." Ugh.
Well, like indie dance-rock act The Rapture showing up on the soundtrack to the latest Grand Theft Auto, which I recently blogged about… Scottish indie dance-rockers (hmmm… pattern here?) Franz Ferdinand are giving a brand new track "Lucid Dreams" for the soundtrack to this recently released game. I have no idea how Franz, and really specifically this song, fit into a football game but obviously a trend is on the horizon, and why not? Video games have become serious business, raking in more money than a lot of big-budget Hollywood movies. So if a song in a movie can change the career of a band or performer why not a video game? The audience is that big… and if the video game audience is more likely to then pick up the next album by either The Rapture or Franz vs. the latest emo crap I'm all for it. Rock on!
While "Lucid Dreams" doesn't pop with the glorious hooks of "Take Me Out" or "Do You Want to?" after a couple listens I was sold. It has a faint needle scratch effect through the song (a notion almost extinct in the digital age) that gives the song a lo-fi charm. This is Franz at their most raw and given that the band had hinted the new record was going to focus more on the DANCE that the ROCK of their sound I'm a bit baffled. But now I'm even more excited… what are they going to surprise us with? It has an almost live quality to it that hasn't been evident in any of their released material. But like all Franz, it's catchy, fun, and you'll find yourself singing along to the "whoa's!" in the track.
the wait.

Song: Spiralling
Artist: Keane
Album: Perfect Symmetry
I guess I still don't know what I think of Keane. Their 2004 debut "Hopes and Fears" was the best selling record in the UK for that year, and while it took some time to make its way across the pond, their breakout single "Somewhere Only We Know" did make quite a splash here in the states. I for one found them to be a cheap Travis rip-off but nobody knows Travis here… so Keane took the sensitive music with a piano market. (Well, what was left of it from Coldplay.) For their follow-up the band seemed to be taking a leap forward in that they wanted to ROCK. I actually totally fell for their first single from their sophomore set "Under the Iron Sea," "Is it Any Wonder?" which (again like Coldplay) showed that Keane didn't want to be known as just a drippy piano band… they wanted to be… umm, U2. I didn't mind though because "Is it Any Wonder?" was a killer track and I played the hell out of. So I bought the record (which, to be honest, was partly to cover up that I was buying the Paris Hilton record on the same day) and found out that Keane hadn't really changed… the rest of the record was straight from Snore City.
The album had crazy sales in the UK… but for reasons that will probably un-earth themselves (conveniently) for the marketing of their third record, lead singer-songwriter Tom Chaplin checked himself into rehab for drugs and alcohol. The fall-out from his problems lead to a cancelling of their US tour as well as cancellations of shows in Europe.
October will see the release of "Perfect Symmetry," and "Spiralling" the first single was recently released digitally for free via the bands website. And just like "Is it Any Wonder?," "Spiralling" is an out-of-character rocker… and I really dig it. So who are Keane? And will this be another bait and switch? If I'm honest "Somewhere Only We Know" totally grew on me, and Lily Allen's cover of "Everything Changes" made me re-visit, and like, the bands version. These guys are obviously talented… so I will give them the time to see what new directions they may be following.
Besides… post-rehab albums are usually such a joy.

Song: Illusions
Artist: Heloise and the Savoir Faire
Album: Trash, Rats, & Microphones
So my good friend Brian just introduced me to this new fun Brooklyn based band. Heloise Williams, the leader of the band and former Peaches bodyguard/driver (seriously) formed the band, Heloise and the Savoir Faire in 2004. Their debut, "Trash, Rats, & Microphones was released in April of this year.
This CD has either been a bit under the radar or I'm not paying enough attention… but are they just another hipster elctro outfit from Brooklyn? Yes… and no. Well yes they are… composing fun bouncy elctro-rock tunes that will fit perfectly for your next Williamsburg roof-top party, but they're also pretty good. A bit more Scissor Sisters/Franz Ferdinand than say, Hercules & Love Affair… but only after two listens do I realize this one could make it to my "liking this! Smart playlist on my iPod. Actually, I think the perfect comparison is really a latter-day B-52's. This is a party record in which everyone there is interesting, arty, and a bit kooky.
I'm still getting into the record but track number one "Illusions" really sets the stage, telling you "you should be dancing all night." Catchy choruses seem to be a trademark of the songwriting… give it a chance, I think you'll be dancing this mess around.
Here is the band performing on Graham Norton

Most of All
Song: Most of All
Artist: Morgan Geist
Album: Double Night Time
I'm not usually a fan of ambient, or faceless lounge music, but I do realize… the problem is me. I'm a hook guy. An emotion guy. And the idea of "background music" sort of makes me cringe. (I literally don't own ONE film score, what's the point?) But again… this is a little quirk in me as I just don't connect to it. Like seafood, Cold Stone Creamery, and Celine fucking Dion.
So while "lounge" music doesn't take up much space on my iPod, I do see how music that just sort of exists without much attention needed has its place. And I've DJ'd enough cocktail parties and dinners in which light music is exactly what's needed; something in the background that doesn't overpower conversation but alleviates awkward silence.
So recently I found a great record of this ilk in Morgan Geist's (of Metro Area fame) upcoming September release "Double Night Time." It reminds me a bit of Junior Boys, though there isn't as much focus on actual "song" here. Mostly instrumental, it's a great late night record, or early morning. "Most of All" is lyric based… so not totally representative of the record but you get the idea. Instead of "background" let's call it "mood."

Song: Freeway
Artist: Aimee Mann
Album: @#%&*! Smilers
While cultural osmosis lent its hand for me knowing "Voices Carry," the biggest hit from 'Til Tuesday by heart, to know the solo work of member Aimee Mann you have to work a bit harder. And while I knew the name and the woman… it wasn't until her songs created the plot and soundtrack for Paul Thomas Anderson's masterwork "Magnolia" did I really understand the true brilliance of this amazing songwriter.
The delightfully titled "@#%&*! Smilers" marks Mann's 6th solo release and her latest since '05's story/concept record "The Forgotten Arm." I've been living with the record for a couple weeks now and I'll come clean… it just doesn't grab me the way her songs from the "Magnolia" soundtrack and the follow up album "Bachelor No. 2" did. But make no mistake… there isn't such a thing as a BAD Aimee Mann record. Like Lucinda Williams, Aimee Mann has a couple incredibly good records in between draw-droppingly brilliant ones. As a songwriter, Mann has uncanny abilities in getting clever emotionally true lyrics to ride her bouncy melodies… which are evident once again in lead single/track "Freeway" from her latest. I really dig this song, and love the new wave synths that are added to Mann's mainly acoustic vibe.
If you're not familiar with Mann's work I might suggest that you start with "Bachelor No. 2" or 1995's "I'm With Stupid." Two killer records. While initially she may come across as a run-of-the-mill singer-songwriter, her songs get under your skin… and at least for me new layers and meanings come clear sometimes years after I first get to know a song of hers. It's not often that such human truth can manifest itself in something so catchy.

My People
Song: My People
Artist: The Presets
Album: Apocalypso
I was a fan of The Presets 2005 album "Beams," a mix of hard hitting electronica that had a vaguely gothic vibe to it. Their international hit from that record "Are You the One?" was killer, and later used in a BMW commercial. The band hails from Sydney, Australia, and released their follow up album "Apocalypso" this past April.
It's taken me a while to get around to getting the new record and listening to it and for the most part… it's more of the same. This isn't necessarily a bad thing… it is what it is. I really do like lead single "My People" which is reminiscent of "Are You the One?" There have been two other subsequent singles from the record, which no doubt helped it reach the # 1 spot on the Australian Album chart.
To me, The Presets seem like the house band at some underground Eastern European sex club. It's dark, a bit scary, but thrilling all the same. I can't claim to be a HUGE fan… but I do dig their sound as it's pretty distinct. And what they may lack in pop hooks that seem necessary for this type of music, they make up for it in mood. So throw this in when you're throwing yourself your next Eastern European-themed orgy.

Genius of London
Song: Genius of London
Artist: Tom Tom Club vs. Fergie
Album: MTV Mash Up
I'm a fan of mash ups, the name given to a song which combines elements from two or more songs to create a different one. For the most part, a mash up usually takes the vocals from one song and lays them over the music to another. One of the first known mash ups that I had heard about (and apparently started the craze) was "Love Will Freak Us," a mash up of Missy Elliot's "Get Your Freak On" with Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart." It's pretty wild, and like the best mash ups, it infuses two songs that seemingly could not go together at all. (You can read more about the history of the mash up, and the most popular ones, here.)
A really great left-of-center mash up in a party playlist can be a beautiful thing, confusing your audience yet getting them to bop along to something that they (sort of) know. But be warned… use them sparingly as they can certainly overstay their welcome. Haha.
Never one to shy away from cashing in on a trend, MTV released a compilation of mash ups by DJ Rob Boskamp last year. It could have been aweful, but if listened to sparingly, can be a pretty enjoyable cross-genre journey. My hands down favorite is "Genius of London," a winning combo of Tom Tom Club's 80's classic "Genius of Love" (which Mariah sampled er… stole the melody for "Fantasy.") and Fergie's bazaar pop hit "London Bridge." It's a party starter for sure, even if the music from "Genius of Love" isn't 100% recognizable.
At this point the amount of mash ups floating around the internet are pretty daunting… but do some searching, you'll get hooked for a while.
Other favorites to find:
"A Stroke of Genius" – Christina Aguilera vs. The Strokes
"George Will Freak Us" – George Michael vs. Missy Elliot
"Ziggy at the Party" – David Bowie vs. Pink
"Take Me Out for a Milkshake" – Franz Ferdinand vs. Kelis
Just to name a few…

Soul Finger
Song: Soul Finger
Artist: The Bar-Kays
Album: Soul Finger
Arguably one of the most popular posts I've ever done was also a fun one to me… French DJ Bob Sinclar's "Love Generation," a song that took me ten months to figure out who did it and the title. (For the full story, check it out here.) Because I had actually put in all the wrong lyrics I had googled to find out what the song was in my post, others in the same situation got the info. Yay!
So when I was recently on vacation I finally got around to watching "Superbad" and heard another song that I didn't know what it was, this one dates back to college so it's practically a ten YEAR old mystery. Is that officially a "cold case?" Well I had certainly given up and stopped looking for answers. Anyhow, while I discovered the song I still haven't found this compilation that it's on.
Back in college a local radio station was being sold (in Rochester, NY) and a friend discovered it was no longer being programmed, it was just playing an instrumental compilation on repeat, 24/7. It was an absolutely crazy mix of all different kinds of tunes from the 50's, 60's, and 70's. Since this was still before the age of burnable CD's, I made myself a little cassette mix of my favorite tracks right off the radio. (Old school right?) Since I didn't know the song titles or artists I have them ridiculous names like "Soulful Space Jam" or "Your Hand is Caught in My Poodle Skirt." I loved it.
Since seeing "Superbad" I have learned that a favorite off of that compilation, The Bar-Kays 1967's single "Soul Finger," is not, in fact titled "Snow Finger." (Hence another reason internet searches lead me nowhere.) The compilation also features the song "Sleep Walk" by Santo & Johnny (listen here) which I had titled "Scary Small Town Theme." Even knowing those two tracks I still can't find this compilation. Might a reader know it?
The Bar-Kays were a funk/R&B band that became Otis Redding's backing band in 1967. Both "Soul Finger" and "Too Hot to Stop" were both used in "Superbad." It's a great little quirky party tune that's good for any collection!

In order to use Pspice, a circuit must be specified in terms of element names, element values, nodes, variable parameters, and sources. First of all, node numbers are assigned to the circuit to be simulated. Elements are connected between nodes. The node numbers to which an element is connected are specified after the name of the element. Node 0 is predefined as the ground. All nodes should be connected to at least two elements. For example in order represent a 20 kilo-ohm resistor connected between the nodes 1 and 2, it may be written as:
Circuit elements are identified by names. A name must start with a letter symbol corresponding to the element but after that it can contain either letters or numbers. For example the name of a capacitor must start with C.
The values of some circuit elements or their behaviour are dependent on other parameters, such as the initial condition of an inductor, the capacitance as a function of voltage, and the resistance as a function of temperature. There are different techniques for specifying models of sources, passive elements and active elements. For example, the model for a simple sinusoidal source is:
SIN( VO VA FREQ) where VO = offset voltage, VA = Peak voltage, FREQ = frequency in Hz.
