Nelson Mandela, the South African prisoner of conscience who became the first president of the post-apartheid South Africa, has died at his home, at the age of 95. He had been ailing for some time.
Mandela was one of the few people one can say was truly great; a paragon of strength, dignity, forgiveness and wisdom, he endured terrible adversity for his cause, and when he won, he eschewed vengeance and led his country into a (relatively) peaceful new era. And here is the Onion's take.
At some point today, the world's political leaders will pay tributes to Mandela. When David Cameron, the UK's Prime Minister says his words (as he must, regardless of whether it'd be the decent thing to do), let it not be forgotten that the Federation of Conservative Students of which he was a senior member at the time called for Mandela to be executed as a terrorist.
It seems that yesterday quite a few notable people died; among them:
Sad news: Christina Amphlett, frontwoman of post-punk rock band The Divinyls, inspiration to many, first crush to many more and arguably the archetypal Australian Rock Chick, has died in New York, aged 53. The Divinyls are best known outside of Australia for I Touch Myself, though in their career had many more hits, including Pleasure And Pain, Back To The Wall and Science Fiction, through the 1980s and until their generation was displaced by the JJJ Grunge Revolution (many of whose key players, like Adalita from Magic Dirt, were inspired by her).
It's fair to say that Amphlett lived the lifestyle. Born in industrial Geelong, she left home in her teens and spent time busking in Europe, at one point being imprisoned for three months for singing in the streets; she was born at the right time to be there when punk broke, and her artistic career embodied its values—aggressively forward, unapologetically raunchy and cuttingly honest, expressing both toughness and vulnerability; her voice certainly did.
Amphlett was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2006 and breast cancer in 2010; had it only been one of the two, she'd probably had more of a chance, but apparently the MS made radiotherapy impossible.
There is more coverage, including quotes from other musicians who knew her, here
Contentious former British Prime Minister
and inventor of the soft-scoop ice cream*, Margaret Thatcher, is fit for work dead. Thatcher is best remembered for her contributions to music, having inspired at once the vitriol of a generation of post-punk musicians and a market for smooth wine-bar soul for a rising generation of moneyed sophisticates, and also having laid the ground work for Britain's rave culture by ensuring an abundance of empty warehouses. That and the smashing of the mining unions, support for the South African apartheid regime and Chilean libertarian dictator Augusto Pinochet, the Section 28 law suppressing the discussion of homosexuality in schools and by councils, the Poll Tax and the resulting extinction of the Conservative Party in Scotland (a society to which Burkean conservatism, as a world-view, was not traditionally alien), mass privatisation, economic precarity for a large (non-Tory-voting) section of the population, soaring inequality (Britain's Gini coefficient rose from 0.28 at the start of her term to 0.35 in 1990, at the end of her term; it is now around 0.4), and cocaine replacing tea as the national drug of Britain some time around 1986.
Thatcher died following
a strike a stroke in a room at the Ritz; she was 87. She is survived by Nelson Mandela, whom she denounced as a terrorist, her son, motor racing enthusiast and Equatorial Guinea coup plotter Sir Mark Thatcher, and, of course, her economic policies, which now form the backbone of all major political parties in the UK, and UKIP as well. Now there is, indeed, no alternative.
A state funeral was proposed by the New Labour government a few years ago when Thatcher's frailty came up; there was also a petition to privatise it last year, as to better honour Thatcher's views. Meanwhile, a mausoleum, a towering pyramid of black onyx, is being constructed in Canary Wharf, where the great lady can spend eternity in the centre of the thrumming hive of finance she so loved in life.
A few years ago, there were also stickers circulating around London, presumably put up by some left-wing group or other, announcing a mass party in Trafalgar Square the Saturday after Thatcher died. I imagine, though, that, in this day of kettling and protest suppression, Trafalgar Square will be as conspicuously free of any political statements as Tienanmen Square is on any 4 June.
Russian singer Eduard Khil has died at the age of 77, following a stroke. Khil is apparently well known in Russia, though attained belated fame outside of Russia when a musical number he performed on Soviet television in the 1970s, in which he sung nonsense lyrics in a rich baritone over luxuriantly loungy background music, but above all with an infectious sense of good cheer, ended up on YouTube and became a meme. The song's original title was apparently "I Am So Happy to Finally Be Back Home" (in Russian, of course), though it was changed by the censors and replaced with the immortal words "Trololololo lololo lololo, hahahahaha!", which probably contributed much to its global appeal some decades later.
Khil lived to see his song belatedly become an internet sensation, and was even filmed commenting on covers of it from all over the world; one partial parody of this song was performed by the German actor Christoph Waltz on television.
Robin Gibb, one of the members of long-running pop group the Bee Gees, has died, aged 62. While they're best known for some overexposed disco-pop from the 1970s, Robin, by all accounts the eccentric of the group, was a much more interesting figure than one might believe:
"I'm also doing the musical score for a film called Henry the Eighth," he told Fabulous, "and I'm making my own film called Family Tree. It involves a man, John Family, whose grandfather is caught trying to blow up Trafalgar Square with a homemade bomb wrapped in underwear." In July 1969 the NME announced Robin was "fronting a 97-piece orchestra and a 60-piece choir in a recording of his latest composition To Heaven and Back, which was inspired by the Apollo 11 moonshot. It is an entirely instrumental piece, with the choir being used for 'astral effects'." Robin Gibb was still only 19 years old.
Age barely mellowed his eccentricity. In the 90s he left his brothers speechless when, during an interview with all three of them on Howard Stern's show, he announced his wife Dwina was bisexual and they enjoyed threesomes. He quickly said it was a joke, then changed his mind again a week later. With their cocooned, peripatetic upbringing (Isle Of Man, Manchester, Australia), the Gibbs never had an instinct for cool pop moves. And Robin Gibb's music - untutored and isolated (I can picture most of it being written on a harpsichord in a dimly lit 12th century living room) – has come out without any of the usual dulling rock'n'roll filters. Who else could have written Odessa (City on the Black Sea) about a man stranded on an iceberg, writing a letter to his wife who loves "that vicar more than words can say"? Frankly, no one.Gibb was predeceased by his twin brother and bandmate Maurice Gibb, who died in 2003.
Adam "MCA" Yauch, cofounder of the Beastie Boys, has passed away after a battle with cancer; he was 47. There's an obituary on the Beastie Boys' website:
Born in Brooklyn, New York, Yauch taught himself to play bass in high school, forming a band for his 17th birthday party that would later become known the world over as Beastie Boys.
With fellow members Michael "Mike D" Diamond and Adam "Adrock" Horovitz, Beastie Boys would go on to sell over 40 million records, release four #1 albums–including the first hip hop album ever to top the Billboard 200, the band's 1986 debut full length, Licensed To Ill–win three Grammys, and the MTV Video Vanguard Lifetime Achievement award. Last month Beastie Boys were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, with Diamond and Horovitz reading an acceptance speech on behalf of Yauch, who was unable to attend.In addition to his role in the Beastie Boys (who started off as a crossover between hardcore punk and rap, taking turns to rhyme cartoonishly crude lyrics over sampled Led Zeppelin breaks, and then evolved into something more subtle though no less dynamic, even putting out two albums of instrumental loungecore grooves), Yauch, a practicing Buddhist, also made and distributed films and was involved in activism, organising a benefit concert for the rights of Tibetans under Chinese rule and, more recently, marching with the Occupy movement.
Meanwhile, Pitchfork has a piece on how MCA offered a relatable blueprint for growing up, in both his art and his life:
The Beastie Boys turned curiosity into a form of art. They wanted to know more about what was around them and learn everything they could about what wasn't. Forget about Kurt Cobain for a second: For kids like me, the Beastie Boys invented the 90s. Technology was changing fast and the world was shrinking rapidly. Between their music and label/magazine Grand Royal, the Beasties showed how to reach out and scoop up all the best parts. New York hip-hop and punk rock, Japanese pop, Jamaican dub-- all of it could be gathered and re-assembled into something that reflected who you were. This sort of cultural mixing was nothing new, but the Beastie Boys brought it to the mainstream. They were ambassadors, but their hipness didn't look down on anybody. It felt inclusive.
MCA was the spiritual center of the trio, even before he became a student of Tibetan Buddhism. There was a certain kind of Beastie Boys track that I liked to call a "State of MCA" dispatch, starting with "A Year and a Day" from Paul's Boutique. The group was known for its 70s references and corny jokes, but these MCA songs hinted at a yearning for something deeper.The piece ends with a piece of everyday philosophy from MCA:
There's an instrumental on Ill Communication called "Futterman's Rule". The only lyrics listed in the booklet say, "When two are served, all may eat." It turned out to be a reference to a community ritual that was dear to Yauch. In a later issue of Grand Royal, there was a short piece explaining that Gene Futterman was a professional chef and a friend of Adam Yauch's family. He was known for his large dinner parties and when he brought food in from the kitchen he would tell his guests: "When two are served, you eat!"
The elegance of Futterman's Rule does lend it a hint of spirituality. One eats one's food while it is hot, observing dinner as a natural continuum (instead of the top-down, "no-one-eats-until-the-chef-is-ready" hierarchical model that dominates most households). At the same time, no one eats alone (it is only once two people are served, and a social base is established for those with food, that one may begin to eat). If form follows function, the Rule is built to travel. So give it a try. And if you like it, tell a friend.Meanwhile, Stereogum has 20 Great Adam Yauch Moments.
Adam Yauch leaves behind a wife and daughter, two living parents and a world that's slightly less enlightened than when he walked on it. Here passes a true mensch.
Legendary British cartoonist Ronald Searle has passed away, aged 91. Searle had survived imprisonment in horrific conditions by the Japanese army on the Burma Railway (a fellow prisoner remarked that one would only know that he was dead if he stopped drawing) and went on to an illustrious career, creating the St. Trinian's books and the tales of the grotesque, recalcitrant schoolboy Molesworth, and also drawing for publications including Punch, Le Monde and Le Figaro. Searle apparently kept drawing right up to the end. His friend, the cartoonist Gerald Scarfe (whom you may know from his work on Pink Floyd's The Wall) has a eulogy:
Ronald had a wonderfully dry sense of humour. Once a year, he would pay the restaurant with a picture: pigs going into the kitchen looking doubtful, or snails crawling on to people's plates. We would always find pictures waiting for us at the table: Jane would have a drawing of a cat wearing a ballerina's outfit or putting lipstick on in front of a mirror; and I would have a bearded, scruffy cat, scratching his head, pens and paper laid out, waiting for his cartoon to come.There's a gallery of images here and another, of drawings he made for his wife during her illness, here.
Kim Jong Il, the God-Emperor of North Korea, is dead, apparently having suffered a heart attack aboard his private train whilst on the way to offer guidance to workers. All of North Korea has reportedly erupted in mass hysterical wailing as the people are struck by the enormity of their loss and/or the consequences of being insufficiently emphatic in their grief. Meanwhile, the rest of the leadership is off the hook over its pledge to make North Korea prosperous by 2012; if the death of Kim Il Sung is any precedent, there will be a three-year period of national mourning and austerity.
What follows the death of Kim Jong Il is less certain; while there is no official designated successor, his son Kim Jong-un seems to be positioned as the likely candidate, with the state news agency instructing the nation to "faithfully revere" him. Whether the newly ascended God-Emperor will seek a rapprochement with the outside world or to consolidate his stature with belligerent acts, or indeed whether there will be a leadership struggle of any sort within the politburo, remains to be seen.
It is perhaps ironic that, over the past few days, we have witnessed the death of a prominent atheist and critic of despots, then that of a dissident playwright who led the dismantling of a Communist regime and its replacement by a democracy, and finally that of a nominally Communist dictator venerated as a living god. Almost as if there was a god and s/he was hosting a panel show.
Here passes a great man: Vaclav Havel, the Czechoslovakian dissident playwright who led the pro-democracy movement and became the country's first (and last) post-Communist President, then continuing to be President of the newly formed Czech Republic, has died aged 73.
Christopher Hitchens, incandescent polemicist, serially promiscuous believer (lapsed Marxist turned neoconservative warhawk, adherent of various religions turned outspoken atheist) and bon vivant, has died. He was 62.
Hitchens was known for his broadsides against various public figures, from villains like Henry Kissinger to alleged paragons of virtue like Mother Teresa (whom Hitchens described as a ghoulish political opportunist, feeding off and perpetuating the misery of the poor) and the Dalai Lama.
The Independent's Oliver Duggan has written a tribute to Hitchens:
For Hitch, it seems to those of us who truly admired him, was not simply an atheist, a polemicist, and least of all a contrarian. Nor was he a poster boy the left, a banner boy for Iraq, or the harbinger of the apocalypse. He was, in a small part, the 21st century's answer to the enlightenment. He stood, first and foremost, for thought. Thought that would always – by definition – question inherited truth and inherited experts.Thought that could break the chain and cull the living flower. In fact, he can be - and often is – mentioned alongside Dostoyevsky, Voltaire, Orwell and Trotsky not for what he thought, but for how he thought.And other eulogies from Ana Marie Cox (you may remember her from suck.com), his close friend the writer Ian McEwan, and Christopher Buckley (the son of arch-conservative William F. Buckley). And here is a counterpoint:
Christopher Hitchens was a pompous buffoon, fueled by booze and cigarettes, and an advocate of an often-despicable worldview. You can dislike him for his repellant views. You can hate his loathsome behavior. You cannot pretend the world didn't just lose a one-of-a-kind voice in our culture. There's nobody left like Christopher Hitchens.I disagreed with a lot of Hitchens' points of view (his support for the Bush administration's war in Iraq, for example, not to mention his somewhat chauvinistic contention that women are incapable of being funny; anyone who has read one of Zoe Williams' columns in the Guardian will have seen disproof of this); his righteous eviscerations of all manner of nonsense, however, were a wonder to behold. Over and above this, he had integrity, and was willing to revise his views when faced with new evidence rather than sticking to an ossified dogma. When challenged on his assertion that waterboarding isn't torture, he had himself subjected to it, and then publicly recanted his previous conviction, which is something it takes a real mensch to do.
Hitchens now rests forever in the noodly embrace of the Flying Spaghetti Monster; he will be missed (it is perhaps a great tragedy that we won't see his eulogy for Henry Kissinger). For what it's worth, longform.org has a selection of his essays.
Two culturally influential Czechs have died in the past two days: Ivan Jirous, 67, who had been the artistic director of the underground psychedelic rock group The Plastic People of the Universe, which was a core of the more absurdist wing of the dissident movement after the Soviet-backed crackdown on the Prague Spring, and Zdenek Miler, 90, creator of the cartoon character Krtek (or "Little Mole").
Rapper, actor and performer Heavy D has passed away, aged 44. Born Dwight Arrington Myers in Jamaica, Heavy D made a name for himself in the New Jack Swing movement of the late 1980s and saw success during the period when hip-hop first hit the pop charts.
Yet another titan of computing has died; this time, John McCarthy, the artificial intelligence pioneer and inventor of the Lisp programming language. He was 84.
Dennis M. Ritchie (better known, as many of the ancients were, by his UNIX login, in this case, dmr) has reportedly passed away in Murray Hill, New Jersey, after a long illness. Ritchie was, of course, co-inventor (with Brian Kernighan) of the C programming language (in which a huge proportion of the world's software is written, and which influenced a lot of other languages, from direct descendants like C++ and Objective C to every language which uses C-like syntax), and co-creator (with Ken Thompson) of the UNIX operating system (originally started as a personal project, and now the architectural template for everything from the internet server which is sending you this web page to, quite probably, your mobile phone). Ritchie's influence on the technologies on which our world is built is huge.
Steve Jobs has passed away today, shortly after resigning from the post of CEO of Apple due to failing health. Jobs had battled pancreatic cancer, and had received a liver transplant, a combination which didn't do much for his odds. He was 56.
It's hard to overestimate Jobs' influence on the world; the timeline of his life is liberally scattered with world-changing achievements. The Apple II helped popularise home computing, and was responsible for a lot of people learning to program. The Mac popularised graphical interfaces. (It was neither the first GUI—that was Xerox PARC's Alto prototype—nor the most popular one—that was Microsoft's Windows, which to no small extent imitated the Mac—though it was the one which popularised the concept.) After Jobs was ousted from Apple, his next project, NeXT, was daring and beautiful, though commercially unsuccessful; however, Sir Tim Berners-Lee did create what became the World-Wide Web on one. Years later, Apple's reinvigorated Macintosh line, infused with the technical DNA of NeXT, helped to break Microsoft's stranglehold over computer standards and the leaden years of stagnation that had ensued. Meanwhile, the iPod—also not the first MP3 player by a long shot—displaced the Sony Walkman as the iconic personal audio player, and iTunes forced the hand of the recording industry. The iPhone, meanwhile, transformed mobile phones, both in industrial design (one only has to compare early Android prototypes, with their square screens and BlackBerry-esque QWERTY keypads, to the plethora of touchscreen phones which followed) and the degree of control phone carriers had over phones (which, before the iPhone, were routinely locked down to do only what the carrier saw as profitable to let its users do) and the availability of mobile internet access (which, once again, followed a walled-garden model, preserving the carrier oligopolists' profits, again at the price of stagnation). Then came along the iPad, succeeding spectacularly where tablet-shaped computers had failed for decades. And, outside of that, Jobs helmed Pixar, which produced computer-animated feature films which were not only massively popular and technologically innovative but critically acclaimed. It beggars belief to think of one human being as having had that much impact on the world, over and over again; had he had a few more decades of life, there would doubtlessly have been more.
WIRED has a list of tributes to Jobs from various luminaries, as well as an eulogy by Steven Levy. Meanwhile, there are tributes from xkcd and The Laugh-Out-Loud Cats.
Poly Styrene, the frontwoman of seminal 1970s teenage punk band X-Ray Specs, has passed away, aged 53. Styrene (real name: Marianne Elliot-Said) turned to punk rock in 1976, and managed to not only question the norms of bourgeois society and the modern condition but to subvert the macho orthodoxies of punk rock, and inspired a few generations of outspoken female rock'n'roll artists; were it not for her, punk would have been a less interesting phenomenon.
Styrene had finished a solo album, Generation Indigo, last year when she was diagnosed with cancer. There is an interview she did with the Guardian a month ago here.
News of the untimely death of Trish Keenan, frontwoman of experimental library-pop band Broadcast, has sent shockwaves through the music community. The Line Of Best Fit has a thoughtful tribute:
If it was Stereolab who coined the term "space age bachelor pad music", Broadcast were rewiring the room's electrics to match the lush mood. The sumptuous elegance of Keenan's coolly delivered vocals were key to installing the mood, sometimes gentle and wistful, fragile without being slight, at other times somnambulent, haunting and bold. Her lyrics could be cryptic, partly due to her occasional utilisation of automatic writing, but often bore weight as snapshots of love and society.
In the last few years Broadcast have been increasingly cited as an influence by pop-minded sonic adventurers. Deerhunter's Bradford Cox recorded and toured with them in his Atlas Sound guise, of Montreal's Kevin Barnes listed Haha Sound as his favourite album of the 00s when asked by Ragged Words, and Animal Collective booked them for their curation of All Tomorrow's Parties this coming May after they played a stand-out set at the Matt Groening curated weekend last year.And here is a roundup of some illustrious indie musicians' responses to the news.
Meanwhile, someone has posted a music mix in tribute here, consisting of 17 tracks in a sympathetic direction. Alas, there is no track listing, but it's largely in a psychedelic direction.
A sad day for music: Trish Keenan, the frontwoman of Broadcast, has passed away from complications of pneumonia, after battling with H1N1 flu for two weeks. She was far too young.
The world will be a poorer place without her.
Malcolm McLaren is dead. A committed Situationist and/or Frommian marketing character, McLaren (who grew up in Stoke Newington and dropped out of St. Martin's College) managed proto-punk glam rockers the New York Dolls, was instrumental in the creation of the Sex Pistols phenomenon (and the transformation of punk rock into a mass-media phenomenon), before going on to create Bow Wow Wow, toy with the idea of paedophilia as a pop-music marketing shtick, and bring electro-hip-hop out of the New York ghetto and into the mainstream in the form of Buffalo Gals, and then unsuccessfully trying to do the same for Puccini and equally unsuccessfully running for Mayor of London. I last heard of him talking about getting some chiptune artists together to work on an album organised by him, to be titled Fashionbeast. He may or may not have been a good bloke, depending on whom you ask, but one cannot say that he wasn't an interesting character.
McLaren is reported to have died in either Switzerland or New York, depending on which report you believe, this morning after a long struggle with cancer. He was 64.
Here is Alexis Petridis' eulogy for McLaren.
Australian post-punk guitarist Rowland S. Howard passed away today, after a battle with liver cancer. He was 50.
And bound for Valhalla today: gonzo music journalist Steven Wells (who wrote for the NME back when it was more interesting), actress Farrah Fawcett (who was most famous in the 1970s) and fairytale prince and self-styled "King of Pop" Michael Jackson.
Cult author JG Ballard has passed away, aged 78. Ballard is best known for his novels of utopian modernism spawning postmodern dystopias, and extreme and bizarre behaviours arising from the modern, technologically-enhanced human condition, so much to the point that the adjective "Ballardian" emerged to denote those sorts of things.
American soul singer Isaac Hayes has died at 65. He was once best known for the Theme From Shaft, though now most people would know him primarily for playing the Chef on South Park (a husky-voiced black lothario whose characterisation undoubtedly owes a good deal to his contemporary Barry White) and quitting this show after it made fun of his religion, Scientology. Most people probably won't remember him for having been a Ghanaian king with the title Nene Katey Ocansey, though he was.
Tony Wilson, founder of groundbreaking independent label Factory Records, has passed away at the age of 57. Wilson was responsible for bringing Joy Division/New Order to the world's attention, and arguably kickstarted dance/club culture in Manchester by opening the Hacienda nightclub (the first US-style superclub in Britain). Obituaries at the BBC, The Guardian (written by Paul Morley, no less), and Pitchfork.
Update: Momus has a tribute to Tony Wilson; he, of course, is full of praise for the great man, and also reveals that "Hairstyle Of The Devil" was about a (bizarre) love triangle involving himself and Peter Saville's ex-girlfriend Nicki Kefalas, who was handling Factory's promotions.
Keith Girdler, frontman of Sarah Records band Blueboy and subsequent bands Lovejoy and Beaumont, has apparently passed away recently. From an email circulating:
Dear Friends
It is with immense sadness that I have to inform you that my dearest friend Keith Girdler died on May 15th 2007. Keith passed away peacefully after a recent deterioration in his condition - he was diagnosed with cancer in July 2004. Keith was a truly special person and I know that many people will hold very fond memories of their time spent in his company. Keith is survived by his partner, his siblings and their families. We are all devastated at the tragic loss of Keith and we will miss him enormously.
Keith was known to many as the singer in Blueboy - a brilliant band who are still seen as influential many years since they last released a record. He was a gifted songwriter and he had a beautiful voice. I considered Keith to be not only my best friend but an amazingly talented person. It was a huge privilege to know him. Despite continuing to release records with his other groups Arabesque, Beaumont, Lovejoy and The Snowdrops, Keith's focus shifted away from music in recent years. He enjoyed a successful career, first by training as a qualified social worker and then developing a skilled role as Volunteer Services Manager for Age Concern Eastbourne. He was passionate about his work and the need to stand up for some of the most vulnerable elderly people in our society. Keith was exteremly brave and he continued in his work for as long as possible during his illness. I know that Keith was very highly regarded by his colleagues and the people for whom he provided care and support in his work. He was a selfless and gentle person who genuinely affected everyone he knew with his warmth, kindness, humility and humour.
Keith wanted to be remembered, to use his own words, with 'happiness and smiles' - which for those of us fortunate enough to have known him, will come all too easily despite our grief.
Words cannot really come close to describing the feelings we have about Keith. However, I know that many people will want to express their sorrow at this news and their sympathy to his family and friends. If you would like to send a message of condolence, or share your memories of Keith, please send an email to snowboundipc (at) yahoo (dot) co (dot) uk.
Messages and tributes to Keith will be published online in the near future, when a suitable web location has been established.
Richard Preece May 22 2007
And another one exits this world; Kurt Vonnegut, author of Cat's Cradle and Slaughterhouse Five and chronicler of the absurd, has died, a year after coming out of retirement to write a book, A Man Without A Country, bitterly denouncing the state of America under Bush.

Execujet Owners Take Over Grob Aerospace
Executive Jet Investments (EJI), a Swiss investment firm led by Execujet CEO Niall Olver, has acquired a controlling stake in German-based manufacturer Grob Aerospace. The Grob family holds the remaining shares, although officials declined to disclose the exact percentage of shares owned by each entity. EJI is simultaneously renamed Grob Aerospace AG. "The SPn Utility business jet program will thus be better integrated," Execujet marketing director Cédric Migeon told AIN. He clarified that Grob Aerospace AG and South Africa-based FBO/charter company Execujet have many common shareholders. Zurich-headquartered EJI previously held a 50-percent stake in the business jet program and Execujet has been in charge of marketing and sales. Grob Aerospace has been responsible for the development and production of the SPn. The Williams FJ44-powered twinjet is now in flight test from Grob's base near Munich, with certification still expected early next year. No management change is planned at the German firm, Migeon said.

From powder to park, the Affair Access gives you supportive comfort.
Share your thoughts
What do you think of the
K2 Affair Access Snowboard Boot - Women's
? Share a...
Not for me
I'm giving this 3 stars because I've read great reviews about them (which is the reason why I purchased the boots in the first place)but it just did not work out for me. It hurt my ankle badly and I thought if I wore them a few more times, it would "mold" into my feet but the pain came back after each usage. Maybe it's the shape of my feet but either way, it was not right for me.
Sweet boots
Christina Jackson
Awesome boots! Just the right amount of flex and I love the fact that these have the lace ups but the boa type thing on the side, its like a nice tight foot hug that makes the boot part of you and not sliding around on your foot. I lace my boots up once but if I go into the lodge to eat I just loosen the sides up and the whole boot loosens up without having to unlace and re-lace em
How do you mold these boots? How hot do...
How do you mold these boots? How hot do the need to get and for how long?
Aaron Wilbur
They way i have molded my boots in the past, which really has worked astoundingly, is to put your liners in your boots, and blast them with a hairdryer for 10-15 minutes, you really cant over-do it with a blow dryer, and the liners dont need that much heat at all. Take an old pair of socks and cut the toe pieces out , and slide the caps over your toes. slide your fattiest pair of socks on over these, and strap your feet in tight! Keep them on as long as you can, and they should fit awesomely. If they dont fit at first, give them a few days riding to break in and pack down some. If they still dont fit, give it another go.
T1 for us ladies
My boyfriend has been riding the K2 T1 for about three years and always talks about how great they are. Well they ARE, I got these boots and can't believe how much better than any other boot they are. I have been riding for about 8 years and have owned 5 or so boots, ranging from salomom to burton to 32 and these kill them all. TRY 'EM!!!

The former leader of a now-defunct online movie piracy group has been handed a record-breaking prison sentence in the United States today and ordered to pay $15,000 restitution. Jeramiah Perkins was described as the sysop of the BitTorrent release group IMAGiNE, a group that was busted by the FBI in 2011 following an MPAA investigation. Perkins will now serve five years in a federal prison, the longest sentence ever handed out in a case of this type. After his imprisonment ends Perkins will be subjected to a further three years of supervised release and will be banned from possessing any electronic device with the capability or reproducing and distributing copies of copyrighted materials.In November 2012, Sean Lovelady of California, a moderator with the group, received a 23 month sentence. In the same month Willie Lambert of Pennsylvania, an administrator, received a 30 month prison sentence. An even tougher sentence was handed to 53-year-old group sysop Gregory Cherwonik of New York. He was jailed for 40 months by Virginia District Court Judge Arenda Allen and ordered to pay $15,000 in restitution to the MPAA. IMAGiNE member, Brad Newell who cammed movies for the group, received a sentence of 48 months in 2010.
Um plenty of people here needs to read that and need to send their reply. Maybe a few good replies from people around might beat what Verizon,Comcast,AT&T and other rip off companies have to say.
I wish the armed thugs in my city would get this much time for their various "ventures."Ah but then we'd have no crime. Can't have that.--"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini
I'm sure the big Telcos had a lot of say in setting the numbers that make it not economic to try and serve much of the areas in question.--"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini
These are just amateur release groups that post mostly re-encodes of Russian and Chinese work.Why on Earth is the FBI wasting resources on this?
The studios dont want 95 percent of their market eaten up by piracy, Kocher told NetworkWorld.LOL at the 95% figure.Also, ask Blu-ray how well on chip security worked for them. Wasted millions only to be defeated before the first commercial player was even released.
all these security measures also forget that at some point the video must be viewed. And even with HDCP people will get access to the HD stream.preventing piracy with more and more technology reminds me of squirrel proof bird feeders. No matter what innovation is put into them the squirrels always get the bird seed eventually.--[65 Arcanist]Filan(High Elf) Zone: Broadband Reports
I heard the MPAA is working on a new video format where you don't actually watch the movie... you watch a bunch of previews & commercials and are suppose to feel really good that you are financially supporting the movie industry with your purchase.
HDCP is broken, and pirates aren't using the HDMI stream anyways, they are using a capture card, which would ignore this entire on-chip security bullshit anyways. Also, lets not forget, that once its aired, its pretty much fair game to anyone who recorded it to an external HDD and has the matching programs to re-encode it on their computer. Anyone with a TiVO can move any content they want to their computer anyways, so, their on-chip security will only hurt the non-pirates, as always.

Heavenly Father, You know how deep my grief is. I long for the touch of a hand, the sound of a voice that is stilled. You are merciful and kind. You will comfort my wounded heart. Wipe the tears from my eyes. Thank You for understanding so well our poor human hearts and for letting us lean on You. In Jesus' name. Amen.
Prayer For Loss
Find comfort from the overwhelming feelings of sorrow and grief. These prayers for loss will help you keep focused on God's promise of eternity.
Lord, I know that You comprehend the depth of my grief. Please, Lord, take some of this pain from me, for I cannot bear it all alone. Please give me the grace to relinquish my sorrow to You, bit by bit, as I am ready. And then, Lord, fill my empty spaces in whatever ways are best for me.
O merciful Father, who hast taught us in Thy holy Word that Thou dost not willingly afflict or grieve the children of men: Look with pity upon the sorrows of Thy servant for whom our prayers are offered. Remember him, O Lord, in mercy, nourish his soul with patience, comfort him with a sense of Thy goodness, lift up Thy countenance upon him, and give him peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

I was logged on to facebook watching the videos/pics post on my laptop while sitting in bed next to him, with his phone on my nightstand.
Turns out his Android had a virus. We think it was attached to a work email he had opened.
I tell you this story because I think you need to do a quick virus scan on his phone and tablet. Also, if you know the date the pictures were added, I would go back through his email, including trash folders, and see what was opened.
Another thing to check would be his youtube history...
Sorry you are in this position doesitgetbetter. But I think you need to go full assault on this and research the bejeebies out of it NOW or else that seed of doubt in your mind is going to grow. Best to leave no stone unturned now rather than wait and risk not being able to do the research.

Advisers who can push their clients to share personal goals and dreams form the deepest relationships, leading clients to reveal more assets and to refer more friends and family.
But the process of getting clients to think about — and especially to divulge — their aspirations is challenging.
Julie Littlechild, founder of Advisor Impact, said it requires creativity and persistence to help clients open up and see "a complete picture of what's important to their lives."
Posing the right questions can often get that conversation going. Here are some tried and true queries advisers use to get the ball rolling.

vs. Treadmill
Price: $499
Bottom Line:The TruPace E200 elliptical trainer is a good mid-level elliptical trainer at an entry level price. Offering a space saving design, a magnetic braking system, 18" stride length, and 22 preset workouts, the E200 offers incredible value for money. TruPace brand fitness equipment can be purchased at 1800treadmill.com.
Thoughts: The TruPace brand is relatively new to the elliptical trainer market and their products offer entry to mid-level quality at very affordable prices. When we received the TruPace E200 elliptical trainer we were impressed to find how sturdy the frame was and that the plastic components were well made. The range of motion on this machine is great and the overall workout experience is a comfortable one. Offering stability at fast pace workouts and an accurate heart rate monitoring system we were shocked at the value for money coming from TruPace. The display is a bit limited, but still offers a vibrant image and 22 varied preset workouts. Overall this elliptical trainer from TruPace really beats a lot of the more expensive products from manufacturers like Proform. If getting the most for your money is important to you, consider purchasing the TruPace E200 elliptical trainer.
Solid entry level design at very affordable price.

Rindge expecting an all-time voting record today
Rindge election official Dan Whitney directs voters to the ballot clerks inside the Rindge Memorial School gymnasium Tuesday morning. (MEGHAN PIERCE)
RINDGE – It looks like the town could see an all-time voting high today, said town moderator David Tower.
"I think we're going to exceed our record turnout, which was in 2008," he said.
In 2008 a little over 3,400 of the town's 3,700 voters turned out, he said.
At around 11 a.m., about 1,170 people had already voted, Tower said.
"It's been very busy," he said.
Between the hours of 7 and 8 a.m. were the busiest with a long line leading out of the Rindge Memorial School gymnasium where the town votes and into the school's front hall and out the front door. Tower said he expects late afternoon between 4 p.m. and when the polls close at 7 p.m. to also be very busy.
"A lot of residents work out of town," he said.
Despite the heavy turnout, Tower said the election has been running "very smooth."
Tower said most residents have arrived with their photo IDs ready to show the ballot clerks.
"Everyone comes in with a license in hand. They seem to be informed," Tower said. "We've maybe had three or four people fill out affidavits."
Only one voter took issue with the new state law, he said.
The woman got upset when asked to show her ID, Tower said, so he read her a letter from the Attorney General's Office explaining the new voter law and told her she could sign an affidavit if she did not have an ID.
The woman declined and left without voting, Tower said. "She said she wanted to talk to her husband about it."
Poll worker Dan Whitney was greeting voters with a big smile as they came toward the ballot clerks, and he helped direct them to the right clerk.
"This is like Easter, and Christmas and St. Patrick's Day all rolled into one," Whitney said.
The election is moving in a positive and pleasant way, he said.
So far the new voter ID law has not slowed down the process, but it is one more step, he said, so it could slow voting down when the polls are expected to get busier later in the day, he said.
Though she and fellow Republican state Rep. John Hunt are running unopposed, Susan Emerson did not miss the chance to say hello to voters. She was posted outside the school with her 10-year-old Great Dane, Miss Gerda.
Emerson who up until recently had been representing the towns of Jaffrey and Rindge, now represents Rindge and Fitzwilliam. The redistricting was a move to oust her and other moderate Republicans, she said.
Though she was confident the "radical" Republicans swept into the State House two years ago would be voted out today, Emerson said if Bill O'Brien remains speaker of the House, "I'm leaving the Republican Party. It's that bad at the State House."
Emerson said she would become a Democrat.
"Politics have never been this dirty," Emerson said.
Holding Democratic signs outside of the school, residents Jo Ellen D'Ambrosio, Julie Flood Page and Jane Hersey said they are optimistic that President Barack Obama will be reelected.

I just did a Skype test and a .05 one worked great (I had to remember to put in an "011" in this case before the country code).However, Skype (or a Skype-alike) is still often the most fun way to call. Plus computer tech is macro-friendly. So I want to macro-ize the calling procedure in some cases, where I will be making frequent calls to one number overseas.This could be done with one of the many freeware or low-cost macro programs, externally, although you have to play with the pause issue. Does anyone have good suggestions for more native utilities to accomplish this end ? Or maybe it is a hidden Skype feature .Access number ... pause...Pin # ................ pauseDestinationThanks for any assistance and ideas.Steven

My question is then, is it pointless to get the out-of-state NH license, as my understanding is that it would ONLY give you NH? Or, am I just not understanding this right.PLEASE NOTE : The State of New Hampshire will only recognize resident concealed handgun licenses from these states. Concealed handgun licenses issued by the State of New Hampshire to out-of-state residents are ONLY valid within the State of New Hampshire.

You can reduce your risk of developing low back pain and sciatica by reducing the stress on your back. Guidelines for reducing stress on your back include:
Guidelines include:
Poor posture and slouching can put pressure on your lower back. Stand and sit straight, and avoid sitting up in bed. If possible, find an ergonomic specialist to help teach you good posture and body mechanics, as well as help you redesign your workplace to reduce strain on your back.
Maintenance of good weight is important for your overall health. While scientific evidence is inconclusive as to how much
obesity contributes to back pain in general, extra pounds can increase pressure on the spinal muscles and disks. Follow the dietary and exercise plan recommended by your doctor. To lose weight you have to consume fewer calories than you expend. To
maintain a healthy weight, eat an equal number of calories to those you expend. Even more exercise than minimum recommendations may be required to lose weight (see below).
An aerobic program will improve your physical fitness, strengthen your back muscles, and help you maintain a healthy weight. Choose exercises or activities that you enjoy and will make a regular part of your day. For most people, this could include walking or participating in another aerobic activity for 30 minutes per day. The 2008 USDA Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee Report recommends at minimum two hours and 30 minutes a week of moderate aerobic activity, and strengthening exercises at least two days a week. Exercise also can help you manage stress. Check with your doctor before starting any exercise program.
Smoking may contribute to degeneration of the discs in the spine. Also, smokers risk possible re-injury to the back during a coughing attack. Smoking can adversely affect healing if you are having a back surgery. To heal properly, you should
quit smoking two weeks before a spine fusion and stay tobacco-free for six months afterwards.
Stress can increase muscle tension. Take time out to relax, exercise, and practice relaxation techniques. If you need support or assistance in reducing stress, you may want to try some of the following techniques:

reviews & comments (40)
Unless your taste buds are European, this cake will be plain, yes. But do yourself a favor, cut sugar in half to bring out the orange flavor (vs sweetness). Serve it with warm custard made with orange liqueur (1 cup whole milk, 1 cup skim, 2 T sugar scalded, 2 eggs added, cooked til thick enough to cover metal spoon, splash Gran Marnier). This makes it very special, very unusual. And to boot, made from ingredients you're likely to have on hand -- no extra trip to the grocery!! PS Tangerine was a fine substitute for orange.
After just moving to the "Sunshine State" and having access to all the fresh citrus, I made this cake. While it was tasty, it needed something to make it special. Hubby wanted cream cheese frosting, but I served it with sliced fresh peaches. Next time I will try poking holes in it and dizzeling/soaking it with a little Cointreau and fresh squeezed o.j.
After salivating through the assembly, we were disappointed at the final result. The kids each took one bite and pushed it away, and my husband said, "it needs vanilla frosting." It would be better suited for a tea cake than a full-blown dessert. I much prefer the orange yogurt cake from Gourmet at least 5 years ago, which unfortunately isn't showing up on the search! Also simple, but more flavorful and moist.
I thought this was an excellent recipe with a wonderful flavor and texture. It did take the full 40 minutes to cook but it was worth it. The next time I make it I may try a drizzle of bittersweet chocolate on top, I believe the two flavors would work well together.
I baked it for 34 minutes. It had a nice bright orange flavor and was moist and very good for family desserts. I doubt that I would make this one company though, because it had a coarser crumb...like a coffee cake. Otherwise, very nice.
needs fresh fruit. couple of reviews down... took 50 minutes in my oven. you had brulee because you don't know how to cook... I'm a 12 chef.
I didn't have any trouble making this recipe. I used 1 1/2t dried orange peel instead of fresh and store bought juice so the orange flavor may not have been as strong. It had a nice buttery flavor and a soft rich texture. Very easy.
I'm not sure why the previous reviewer ended up with something resembling a creme brulee-like filling, but I followed the directions exactly and came out with a moist, sweet and delicious orange-flavored yellow cake that everyone -- kids and adults alike -- raved about. This easy-to-make cake keeps well and is a wonderful dessert for casual get-togethers or weeknight family dinners.

Target malware similar to earlier Trojans designed to hack POS systems
Security researchers investigating Target's mega data breach have reportedly found similarities between the malware used for attacking the retailer and a previously known Trojan program designed to steal data from Point-of-Sale (POS) systems.
iSight Partners have found the attack tool, dubbed Trojan POSRAM, which is a software that can find, store, and transmit credit card and PIN numbers from POS systems.
According to PC World, the security company said that the malicious software is being used in a persistent, wide ranging, and sophisticated cyber campaign, dubbed KAPTOXA, targeting 'many operators' of POS systems.
POSRAM Trojan has been described by security analyst Tiffany Jones, as a customized version of BlackPOS, a piece of malware designed to steal a card's magnetic stripe data while it is stored momentarily in a POS system's memory, just after a credit or debit card is swiped at the terminal.
Once bugging a POS terminal, the malware monitors the memory address spaces on the device for specific information and saves data to a local file and then transfers it to the attackers at preset times.
Jones said that at least 75 percent of the code in POSRAM is similar to the code in BlackPOS, and differs only in the methods used to evade detection by anti-malware tools as it contains a new kind of attack method that conceals all data transfers and executions.
Target's security breach had compromised data of about 110 million of its consumers including their personal information like emails, phone numbers, and full names.
At least three other retailers are believed to be attacked by the same malware, including Neiman Marcus, the report added.

The FedEx Cup Playoffs head west this week to Cherry Hills Country Club in Denver, Colorado for the BMW Championship. The classic William S. Flynn design stretches out to over 7,300 yards, but with the course at an elevation of 5,380 feet, players will have to focus more on control than distance.
"There are certain courses that probably lend themselves to hitting it high and far. I'm not so sure this is one of them," said defending champion and Titleist Brand Ambassador Zach Johnson.
"I love the way the golf course lays out, I like what it demands. It's fair, it's right out in front of you."
When asked about the setup in the Mile High City, Pro V1x loyalist Hunter Mahan echoed Zach's sentiments and stressed the importance of finding fairways.
"At this altitude it's really not a very long golf course. The rough is thick. The rough is pretty heavy on the fairways and off the greens...So, you have to be very careful where you leave your tee shots"
"I think that this is going to be one of those tournaments where there's going to be a lot of really good rounds and going into Sunday, even the back nine, you never know what could happen."
With such an exacting test of golf this week, players will have to be on point with every shot if they hope to take home the trophy and put themselves in the drivers seat for the Tour Championship.
This week at the BMW Championship, Titleist is the top golf ball choice with 37 players in the limited field of 69 trusting a Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf ball for their success.
Titleist was also the top choice in the fairway wood (29), hybrid (10), iron (20) and approach, sand and lob wedge (54) categories.
This week Zach Johnson is setting his sights on a second consecutive BMW Championship title.
Titleist Brand Ambassador Adam Scott tees off during an early-morning practice round at Cherry Hills CC.
Players will need a hot putter as well as a little luck to master the subtle greens this week at Cherry Hills.

Queensland, Australia native and Titleist Brand Ambassador Andrew Dodt relied on his Pro V1x golf ball and a full bag of Titleist equipment to capture the Queensland Open. The win was very special for the man who grew up dreaming of winning his State Open.
"It's one of the proudest days of my career...To win your state open is pretty cool. I saw all the famous names on the trophy and thought how great it would be to have mine on it alongside them."
Congratulations on your great play, Andrew!

Faith's Checkbook - January 24
January 24
Care of Our Feet
"He will keep the feet of His saints" (1 Samuel 2:9).
The way is slippery and our feet are feeble, but the LORD will keep our feet. If we give ourselves up by obedient faith to be His holy ones, He will Himself be our guardian. Not only will He charge His angels to keep us, but He Himself will preserve our goings.
He will keep our feet from falling so that we do not defile our garments, wound our souls, and cause the enemy to blaspheme.
He will keep our feet from wandering so that we do not go into paths of error, or ways of folly, or courses of the world's custom.
He will keep our feet from swelling through weariness, or blistering because of the roughness and length of the way.
He will keep our feet from wounding: our shoes shall be iron and brass so that even though we tread on the edge of the sword, or on deadly serpents, we shall not bleed or be poisoned.
He will also pluck our feet out of the net. We shall not be entangled by the deceit of our malicious and crafty foes.
With such a promise as this, let us run without weariness and walk without fear. He who keeps our feet will do it effectually.
