Watch & Listen
The Sound Of Sunshine -- the inspired and inspiring new album by Michael Franti & Spearhead -- is a kind of musical sun shower, a bright, beautiful and often buoyant song cycle created to bring all kinds of listeners a sense of hope during rough and rainy times for so many in our world. "Music is sunshine," says Michael Franti, one of the most positive and conscious artists in music today. "Like sunshine, music is a powerful force that can instantly and almost chemically change your entire mood. Music gives us new energy and a stronger sense of purpose." "Music is something you can't hold in your hands, smell it, taste it or even see it, yet somehow just coming together and feeling these little vibrations that tickle our eardrums can somehow lift us all up out of our most difficult moments in life to unimaginable heights." Ironically, often joyous and uplifting The Sound Of Sunshine actually came out of a darker and tougher personal experience for Franti. "Last August, my appendix ruptured suddenly in the middle of a tour and I ended up in the hospital for eight days while they figured out what was wrong with me," recalls Franti. "I almost died and I wrote many of these songs coming out of that experience while I was in the hospital for another week or so after that. During that time, I really took a moment to prioritize what's truly important in my life -- and in the end, that's really about the people who I love. Even in that hospital, I could laugh with the people I love, cry with them, and start to find the sun again." Well aware that countless others face far worse problems than he did, Franti wants The Sound Of Sunshine to communicate a sense of hope and possibility for anybody who needs it. Franti's singularly open spirit reflects his own eclectic and intriguing background. Michael was born to an Irish-German-French mother and an African American and American Indian father in Oakland, then adopted by a Finnish American couple who raised him along with their three biological children and another African American son. While studying at the University of San Francisco, Franti formed the punk band The Beatnigs, and later the far more hip hop-inflected The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy. Through it all, Franti has crossed all sorts of musical and physical boundaries in order to make music for everybody. In the mid-Nineties, Franti first formed Spearhead, and increasingly in recent years, he's found his own voice musically and his own organic brand of popular success. Franti and Spearhead's last album, 2008's All Rebel Rockers -- recorded in Jamaica with legendary producers and players Sly & Robbie – became the biggest hit of Franti's career, hitting the Top 40 on the Billboard 200, and yielded his biggest hit, the Top 20 "Say Hey (I Love You)." "I had a nice, long time to get ready for that first hit, and so I really appreciated it when it happened," says Franti. "So when we were just mastering the new album, I was saying to my manager, "Boy, wouldn't it be fun to have a sophomore hit?" He was like, "Sophomore hit? You've already been through grad school, man" So yes, I've paid some dues, and that's made getting this far -- and still being here -- mean even more to me. The funny thing is that `Say Hey' went into the Top Twenty right as I was being wheeled into surgery. I got the text, and I thought, `Wow, I've finally got a hit record, and I'm not even going to live to enjoy it.' That put everything in perspective too." Michael Franti is not a man to openly chase success – in fact; he's not a man who even wears shoes(for the last ten years). Still, Franti has absolutely no problem hearing his music on the radio now. "When I was a kid, I used to listen to AM radio on family vacations in the car, and at family barbeques and my dad would leave the radio on. So songs that were the silly pop hits became a really meaningful part of my childhood - and of my adult life now. So when I think of the fact that there's some family out there on the beach in the summer together listening to `Say Hey,' it makes me feel really good. The truth is a good pop song that makes you feel good can be something of value and meaning to people." Arguably the most cohesive, romantic and life-affirming album that Franti and Spearhead have ever made, The Sound Of Sunshine reflects the fact that, as Franti puts it, "With time, you get a better sense who you are and how to put together all your musical passions into your own sound. I feel like for a long time, I dabbled in other sounds. Like `Let's do something with a reggae vibe here.' Or `Let's really rock here.' But now, I write everything from the acoustic guitar up -- which keeps you honest. Then Jay Bowman, my songwriting partner and I, take a lot of time figuring out what's the best way to present this song and make every word of it come across and ring true." Even the recording process for The Sound Of Sunshine reflects Franti's desire to communicate directly with his audience. "We started in Jamaica actually recording a bunch of tracks with Sly and Robbie who are, of course, great, and we used some of those tracks. Then we got home and started mixing the record. Then I went to Bali and wrote some more songs, but we still didn't have it finished. So we said let's bring a portable studio on the road with us. We'd literally recorded the drums in the locker room of the Toronto Raptors or in the shower of some NHL team. Then we'd go right onstage and play the song and see how other people would react to it. We'd see what worked and go back and record it again the next day. So these songs have really been road tested in front of live bodies." For Franti, "To play for people and share your songs with them is to make a real connection. That's why we play outside our shows for those who can't afford to come inside. They need the songs too – maybe more. That's the reality. And as a musician I was on tour with put it recently, "Our fans didn't come to us from a reality show. They came to us from reality." And so, we mean something in their lives. We're the music they put on when they drive their little kids to school, or hang out with the person they love at night. There's no higher honor. So they have an investment in the music. And that means so much because this music is very personal to me too."
Tart, Tangy, Smooth, and oh so lip-smacking Sweet! Aaah yes, time to praise the almighty summer sippin' thirst quencher, being served straight up G. Love and Special Sauce style, ice cool and always refreshing. On their second release for Brushfire Records, the Philly boys offer up "Lemonade", a series of soul drenched tracks pouring out their blues infused hip-hop, which people have been trying to label for years. The best advice - dont try to tame it or claim it; its simply their sonic trademark, instantly recognizable and addictively delicious.
"The whole thing about lemonade for me was when I first set out from Philly to make it in the music world I went up to Boston, and I would just sit on the front porch of my place after playing the streets or practicing and make myself a big pitcher of lemonade. It just symbolized old time porch loungin' for that's where I did a lot of my shedding and writing. It was so simple and great, I said, if I ever get a record deal I'm going to get Lemonade tattooed on my arm."
It's there all right, and seven albums, thirteen years, and over a million worldwide units later, "Lemonade" is the most cohesive and rewarding album Garrett Dutton - a.k.a. G. Love (guitar, vocals, harmonica, sweat and tears) has ever delivered. Produced and engineered in the womb of Philadelphonic Studios by Chris DiBeneditto (Electric Mile & Philadelphonic) and faithfully anchored by the Sauce, Jimi "Jazz" Prescott (acoustic bass), and Jeffrey "Thunderhouse" Clemens (drums, percussion), G. pairs up with some of the best players in the game including Ben Harper, Donovan Frankenreiter, Jasper, Dave Hidalgo (Los Lobos), Blackalicious, Marc Broussard, Tristan Prettyman and Jack Johnson on a fourteen song celebration of his iconic career.
The tradition of the hip-hop blues has always been to rip open the heart and bare the soul. Tell the listener what they want to hear and you'll have a fair weather friend; tell them the way it is and you'll have true love. Thankfully, the Love is Alive, for G. delivers his loping lilt with bone humming honesty and he's never sounded so clear. From the swarming infectious grooves of "Ride", "Ain't That Right", and "Holla!" to the laid down easy of "Breakin Up", "Still Hanging Around", and "Missing My Baby" G. and The Sauce dance with the muses of their mentors, John Hammond, Bob Dylan, Jimmy Reed, De La Soul without ever missing the beat of their own signature time.
Pepper this with the mercury simmer of "Hot Cookin'" with Frankenreiter, the idyllic warmth of "Rainbow" with Johnson, the aching duet of "Beautiful" with Prettyman and the handclapping hallelujah of "Let the Music Play" with Harper and Broussard you're left with the pure sound of summer ringing in your ear.
As G. says of all the collaborations, "We just reached out to a lot of our friends who just happen to be incredible musicians, and everyone was pretty enthusiastic about coming into the studio with us. So while the record maintains a real G. Love feel, it was a real group effort. Especially on "Let the Music Play", I mean Ben and Marc just came down and demolished this track. We cut the rhythm track but left it wide open. So Bens comes through town and he's just on fire. He wrote his verse on the spot, whipped up this tight Wurlitzer part and played a crazy slide guitar solo throughout the whole thing. I already had a chorus together, but he added this gospel style by stacking his vocals a bit which caught the vibe. To top it off I wanted to have Broussard sing some harmony on it, but once in the studio he wanted to try out one of the verses. I asked him if he thought he could do it and he says in his real New Orleans gruff voice, you think I came down here to suck, man? Well okay. Watch out, I mean I never appreciated what an incredible vocalist he is until he just went in, put his church on it and crushed it. To have Ben and Marc, who both come at music from such a soulful way, on the same track was simply epic."
Even though G. is an insatiable musical omnivore when it comes to feeding off influences, "Lemonade" is his most stylistically cohesive and focused album yet. Grown out of the somewhat dark tension of "The Electric Mile" (2001) and the ass bumping smorgasbord of "The Hustle" (2004), "Lemonade's" overall kickback beat begs the listener to blow out the speakers in musical reaffirmation. "Free" perhaps its deepest and most powerful track pulls the continuity string through it all, for its positive examination of the cycle of rebirth through a persons life backed with a "Fixin' to Die" blues beat perfectly captures the sweat your funk out, soul searchin, dust ridden road warriors G. Love and Special Sauce have come to embody.
"I'm in a real comfortable place musically and in my life; I'm cruisin right now and it feels good. So when I set out to make this record, I wanted to take my sound, base it on the groove and really get into a deeper pocket. Lyrically, I wanted to talk about what I always talk about finding love, making love, losing love, life and lemonade."
Yes indeed, what you hold in your hands is pure, fresh, organic, summer sound. So go ahead, scratch it, sniff it, squeeze it, bite it until its juices slide down your elbows and leave you satisfied.
Troy 'Trombone Shorty' Andrews' is a rare artist who can draw both the unqualified respect of jazz legends and deliver a high-energy rock show capable of mesmerizing international rock stars and audiences alike. With such an unprecedented mix of rock, funk, jazz, hip-hop and soul, he had to create his own name to describe his signature sound: Supafunkrock!
3rd Bass
3rd Bass were a rap group in the late 1980s and early 1990s, notable for being one of the first interracial rap groups in history. Like the Beastie Boys, 3rd Bass helped prove that white rap was viable both critically and commercially.
MC Serch (Michael Berrin), Pete Nice (Pete Nash) and DJ Richie Rich (Richard Lawson) were the three founding members of the group. Richie Rich was a local d.j. and is African-American, Nice was a student at Columbia University and hosted a hip hop show on WKCR. MC Serch rapped at clubs and block parties and released a single called "Hey Boy" on Idlers, an independent record label.
Sam Sever, a producer, convinced Nice and Serch to work together in 1987. Sever, Prince Paul, and The Bomb Squad produced The Cactus Album (The Cee/Dee), a critically acclaimed debut LP.
J. Rabbit
The Coup is a political hip hop group based in Oakland, California. It formed as a three-member group in 1992 with rappers (Raymond) Boots Riley and E-Roc along with DJ Pam the Funkstress. E-Roc left on amicable terms after the group's second album, but appears on the track "Breathing Apparatus" on The Coup's third album, Steal This Album. The group is now a duo.
The Coup, part of the sub-genre of political hip hop, is politically radical and Marxist in their music, and align themselves with other radical hip-hop groups like dead prez. Their music is characterized by electronic sounds and bass-driven backbeats overlaid by humorous, cynical and sometimes violent lyrics criticizing capitalism, American politics, pimping as a form of patriarchal exploitation, and police brutality, among other things.
The Coup's debut album was 1993's Kill My Landlord. In 1994 they released their second album, Genocide and Juice. After a four-year recording hiatus, the group released the critically acclaimed Steal This Album in 1998, the title of which was reminiscent of lifestylist Abbie Hoffman's Steal this Book. The album featured the stand-out single "Me and Jesus the Pimp in a '79 Granada Last Night". The online magazine Dusted called Steal This Album "the best hip-hop album of the 1990s".
"The theorem of turntablist as musician has been long proven in the capable hands of DJ LOGIC, whom with jazz as his foundation has become a wax innovator by crossing genres and sprinkling his sound across the map. As one of the world's most accomplished turntablist's, DJ LOGIC is widely credited for introducing jazz into the hip - hop realms and is considered by most as a highly respected session musician and an innovative bandleader.
Since his emergence in the early nineties amidst the Bronx hip-hop scene, the New York City based deejay has been amassing a veritable mountain of collaborations ranging from the likes of: MEDESKI MARTIN AND WOOD, CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE, VERNON REID, CHARLIE HUNTER, JACK DeJOHNETTE, JOHN MAYER, BEN HARPER, MOS DEF and THE ROOTS, to name but a few.
These days, DJ LOGIC is focusing on studio endeavors, producing notable projects such as: Re-imagination with jazz piano phenomenon ELDAR ; collaborating with VERNON REID on a project he co-founded called the Yohimbe Brothers ; touring with CHRISTIAN MCBRIDE in support of Live at Tonic ; participating in a side project called SOLESIDE (featuring KYLE HOLLINGSWORTH from STRING CHEESE INCIDENT and SPEECH from ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT) and co-anchoring a rock band with JOHN POPPER (The John Popper Project featuring DJ Logic) . LOGIC'S body of work also includes three highly accomplished solo albums (Zen of Logic; The Anomaly; Presents Project Logic), all released on Ropeadope Records.
DJ LOGIC and his role as an electronic-music ambassador keeps him at the top of his game. Whether the scratch artist instructs tablas to flirt with drum 'n' bass (such as on his NINA SIMONE and BILLY HOLIDAY remixes found on Sony Legacy's Remixed and Reimagined volumes) , or while meshing free styling MC's with Afro-Cuban rhythms (such as on 'Share Worldwide Funk' - a remix produced for JACK DeJOHNETTE and Golden Beams Collected, Volume 1 ) , LOGIC can always be found paying homage to his predecessors while contributing his vision to the deejay genre. While the context of his work may vary, DJ LOGIC'S spinning skills are definitely beyond reproach. He works with a phenomenal roster of invited guests, and he knows how to pick his collaborators as well as his samples. With a growing catalogue of recordings under his belt, DJ LOGIC'S supreme musicianship and catholic tastes will allow him to journey wherever an infectious groove may take him.
From its first track, Dessa's new full-length Parts of Speech (6.25.13, Doomtree Records) announces itself as something different. The Doomtree veteran and inveterate wordsmith — having proved her mettle in the fields of creative non-fiction, spoken-word and hip-hop — jettisons all genre expectations on "The Man I Knew" and croons a heartbreaking lament to a disintegrating relationship at an explosively-building clip.
From this moment on Dessa — oft--described as "Mos Def plus Dorothy Parker" for the wit and flow shown off on previous solo albums A Badly Broken Code and Castor, The Twin — proves she has truly coalesced as an artist, transcending the restrictions of genre to reveal an astonishing multi-platform voice.
"I wanted to investigate the idea that a cohesive record isn't always made cohesive by having twelve songs that sound the same. I figured when you make a mixtape for a friend, you can get away with a range of genres and a lot of dynamic change. Why can't I approach an album like that? The sequence has to be just right, and we worked hard to nail it, but the thing that holds this record together is the sensibility of the lyrics, rather than a uniform theme."
Track two kicks off a stunning hat-trick of the record's standout numbers. "Call Off Your Ghost" is an admittedly haunting dirge on the "struggle for grace in the wake of a long relationship." An arena-sized chorus tucked into a melancholy lullaby, "Ghost" has that unique ability to perfectly soundtrack new love or bitter breakup at the same time.
Dessa then puts her fists up for "Warsaw." The track boasts a beat like Azealia Banks playing Pacman, which provides a background for our emcee's confident, hypnotic flow. Narrative takes a backseat to mood here, as Dessa spits impressionistic one-ups like "I sleep with both eyes open, standing up," daring you to blink first.
"Skeleton Key" contains Parts of Speech's mission statement: "I haven't met a locked door yet." An ode to female self-reliance that doesn't waste ambiance for message, the track plays like a great, lost M. Night Shyamalan movie, calling forth an era out of time in the story of a woman, a key and a bottomless reserve of courage.
"This record involves multiple narratives. It explores the same themes of love, loss, connection and communion as a lot of my work, but the angle and lens through which they're explored sets this album apart from my previous ones. The production techniques were new for me too — we spent a lot of time crafting a record that could include live players, Doomtree production, and sometimes a blend of the two."
While the album is born of Dessa's artistic vision, it benefits from the collaboration of her varied friends. Parts of Speech owes much of its impact to its diverse production. Dessa got her start as a member of Minneapolis hip-hop collective Doomtree — eventually going on to help manage the group's business affairs as they launched their own label — and members Lazerbeak and Paper Tiger lend their production to several tracks.
The players in Dessa's live ensemble all contributed to the record, as did several top-flight Minneapolis musicians working in rock, folk, and opera. She even enlisted a cellist she found on Pandora to make the gorgeously-layered foundation of penultimate track "It's Only Me."
Dessa, born and raised in Minneapolis after her parents met at a Duluth music store, was valedictorian of her high school, eventually skipping a year of college and graduating with honors before she could legally drink. Armed with a philosophy degree, the intrepid Midwesterner spent her nights as a waitress and days writing reference manuals used by doctors in the implantation of pacemakers.
"Language and verbal communication were important in my family. If I could argue my way into a later curfew, that argument was entertained. My parents may have regretted that policy later but it was a great motivator to help me develop a facility with words."
A love of words is evident in both Parts of Speech's title and its ethos, as Dessa's philosophy training surfaces too. The rousing chorus of "Fighting Fish" references the Greek philosophical paradox of Zeno's Arrow. "Beekeeper," polished up from a starker appearance on Castor, finds Greek god Prometheus repossessing fire from the humans. "Sound the Bells" sings of Mercator, the cartographical genius who pioneered flat maps of a round world.
Parts of Speech could be made by no one but Dessa, but in its evolution and awareness it is the perfect culmination of the journey started with 2010's A Badly Broken Code. Middle album Castor, The Twin was in many ways a blueprint for Speech. The earlier albums were praised widely for their focus and depth, but Speech shows a fantastic breadth.
By uniting a wealth of different tones and narratives under Dessa's unmistakable poeticism, Parts of Speech greatly resembles Sherwood Anderson's modernist fiction classic Winesburg, Ohio. Dessa creates a new world, populating it with complex characters, beautiful sonic landscapes and refreshing, assertive production.
An album that can boom out of a car window after its summer release, or soundtrack a November night in, Parts of Speech marks a highpoint in Dessa's career and demonstrates the crossover power of the rising star's burgeoning arsenal.

Said The Whale formed in 2007 as a collaboration between songwriters Ben Worcester and Tyler Bancroft. The pair's debut EP, Taking Abalonia, featured sunny west coast indie pop, with breezy harmonies, shimmering guitars, and lyrical tributes to their home city of Vancouver. In 2008, the album was rereleased as Howe Sounds/Talking Abalonia, featuring seven additional tracks that stretched the band's stylistic palate to include bubblegum folk ("The Light Is You"), thundering hard rock ("Last Tree Standing") and gentle ukulele ballads ("The Real of It"). After several personnel changes, the group settled upon a five-piece lineup that includes bassist Nathan Shaw, drummer Spencer Schoening, and keyboardist Jaycelyn Brown. The quintet embarked upon a rigorous touring schedule, crossing Canada numerous times and landing high profile gigs at V-Fest 2008 in Calgary and the nationally televised Canada Day celebration on Parliament Hill.
Just who is the hunk of burning love we have come to know as Oreo Jones?
He is as unique as his Cosby sweater – a bearded brother who summons multiple musical personalities for every new project. But at the heart of it, Oreo Jones is just a true emcee mixing everything he's got – literally beats, rhymes and life – into a bracing hip-hop stew. In the spring of 2010, Jones grabbed the Indianapolis music scene by the throat with the release of his Delicious EP. Anchored by the success of the single "Good Times" – which was prominently featured on several national music blogs – the album reached #4 on the Hypem.com Twitter chart.
Fast forward to the NOW … and Jones is preparing to launch his latest juggernaut with his debut solo long-player, Betty, dropping on Sept. 4 on the estimable Rad Summer label. This platter showcases the same gregarious personality while featuring songs about the trials, tribulations and everyday shenanigans that are at the soul of Oreo Jones. Through clever story telling and a sick flow, Jones takes us on a very personal tour through the parts of life that built his character.
Eschewing the sample-based production that made the Delicious EP so yummy, Betty provides thick-cut, genre bending beats that you can sink your teeth into. The lyrics tackle everything from slavery on "House Nigga", to a more laid back cuts like "No Coast" – an electronic daydream about kickin' it West Coast while landlocked in Naptown. By the end of the record, it is clear that Oreo Jones has broken the mold and will defy all expectations. Betty is Jones' musical testament to becoming his own man – not to mention the best emcees ever named after a cookie! The standout single "Needy" – outlining Jones' desire to make Betty a beacon of light in the choppy seas of the rap game – will have a video forthcoming early next month.
Prior to Betty, Oreo Jones was known for the sheer diversity of his projects. He has a natural ability to pull in people from all walks of life to create unique and memorable music. Last year, Jones linked up with indie rock bands We Are Hex (Roaring Colonel, Third Man Records), Jookabox (Asthmetic Kitty, Joyful Noise), The Woodhands (Paper Bag Recordings), and Fair Fijola to craft the Oreo Jones & Friends EP to benefit VH1′s Save The Music project. And his love of ALL things female lead to the infamous Black Fabio collaboration with DJ Action Jackson – a concept mixtape that featured the single "Reggie Miller" (think Digital Underground's Sex Packets meets Handsome Boy Modeling School).
Who knows what's else is in store for someone with as many badass ideas as Oreo Jones ... packing the dance floor AND having all the ladies screaming just might not be enough..

Indianapolis born and raised, Action Jackson has quickly established himself as one of the premier DJs in the Midwest, playing well over 200 shows in 2011. Specializing in genre bending mixes that span multiple styles of music, he is equally comfortable spinning hip-hop, house, dubstep, moombahton, indie rock, and everything in between. His productions are diverse as well, having remixed artists such as Passion Pit, Hall and Oates, and Smokey Robinson. 2011 found Action linking with emcee Oreo Jones for their collaboration "Black Fabio", a parody of the famous model from the 80's. In short, there's not a crowd or party that he can't rock including large festivals such as Forecastle, Identity Festival, and The Indianapolis 500, the largest single day sporting event in the world.
In 2007, he partnered with Flufftronix to form Rad Summer, a promotion and booking company based in Bloomington, IN. Now based in Philly and Indianapolis, RAD SUMMER has become an established name in the Midwest and East-Coast; partnering with brands such as Scion, Mad Decent, Colt 45, IHEARTCOMIX, Fresh Melt Water, Mishka etc… and booking acts such as Rusko, Benga, Flosstradamus (as performers they've also partnered in events for such artists as Soulja Boy, The MisShapes, DJ AM, Steve Aoki, and Girl Talk). In 2011 Rad Summer expanded to include a full fledged record label, with releases from Flufftronix, Figure, Lemi Vice, RX & Shiftee, and Dave Owen. 2012 finds the label preparing a wide variety of releases including the debut full length from Oreo Jones, a collaboration moombahton EP from Lemi Vice and Knife Fight, a downtempo release from Finnish producer Somepoe, and the return of Black Fabio.
Noteworthy Acts Performed with:
Girl Talk, Flosstradamus, Soulja Boy, Green Velvet, Jeremih, LA RIOTS, VHSorBeta, DJ Assault, the Misshapes, Designer Drugs, The Glitch Mob, Das Racist, Danny Brown, Matt and Kim, Scottie B, Bird Peterson, DJ Mehdi, Riton, DJ Ayres, Blu Jemz, Cosmo Baker, Totally Michael, DJ Sega, Krames, Cousin Cole, Huggs, Curtis Vodka, the Toxic Avenger, Franki Chan, Jubilee, Star Eyes, Million $ Mano, Reid Speed, Villains, Mike Relm, The Hood Internet, Diamonds (the glamour), Lauren Flax, Dark Wave Disco DJS, DJ Fashen, Sammy Bananas, Skeet Skeet, DJ Benzi, Figure, DJ Class, Emynd, Nick Catchdubs, Chew Fu, Claire Hux, Apt One and Skinny Friedman, Kid Color, Dances with White Girls, Prince Terrence, Rob Threezy, Team Bayside High, Rampage, Flufftronix, Talib Kweli, Todosantos, Dirty South Joe, Dance with the Devil, Zebo, Willy Joy, Naughty By Nature, DJ Topspeed, Scott Matelic, DJ Sleeper, etc...

The Woodstove Flapjacks have been entertaining eager masses for over 6 years. Continuing the traditions of early American Stringband music, The Flapjacks mix booming vocals, harmonica and kazoo, banjo's, guitars, mandolin, ukulele, and washtub bass into a raucous good time. This focus on traditional tunes allows the listener to step back to a time when lyrics were written from experience and music was hashed out on a front porch. Lead vocalist Matt Scherger once described the resurgence of stringband music as inevitable, due to the fact that the interest, as well as ability, seems to skip a generation
NUVO calls The Whipstitch Sallies "bluegrass rockers with panache." Four women command the stage with their electrifying presence, traditional instruments, and tight harmonies. Allie Burbrink drives the rhythm on open-back banjo and guitar while Kat Erickson holds down the groove on upright bass. Sam Roberts' blistering mandolin licks and Katie Burk's spirited fiddle leads kick up an exuberant racket that's rooted in mountain music but informed by styles from country and jazz to indie rock. Their 2013 EP Hand 'Em Over was voted Best New Album in the Brown County Music Awards. Take Barfly's advice - "go see them as soon as you can!"
James Wallace & the Naked Light
It was once said that James Wallace would be the kind of guy you'd want on your side if you ever got into a music fight in prison. He'd probably tell you that too, just to clarify his position on not getting into a real fight in prison. That said, his penchant for dark and clever wordplay above eerily-cheery melodies, begs there may be a few twisted stories from his past that we've yet to hear.
Similar to what has often been said of Belle and Sebastian's earlier works, More Strange News From Another Star captures a distinct vintage quality channeled from some non-existent folk music period of decades past. Often referenced to Paul Simon in vocal range and use of textured percussion, Wallace's writing showcases a similar love of African music and Gospel harmonies. But more often than not, his band heads into the more ramshackle, go-for-broke qualities of the early Kinks. A kind of Rock and Roll bred with cacaphony that balances eerily well beneath Wallace's falsetto.
As for the influences in his stories, that is quite the rabbit hole to explore. Whether they be citied from one of his many wandering trips to China, his short residency as a piano player for a small Black Mennonite Church in Appalachia, or an oft mentioned tale about a mysterious box of letters found in an abandoned storehouse concerning aliens and the end of the world, Wallace seems to have a lot to draw on, and that well dosen't seem to be running dry anytime soon.

Hi everyone,
What a weekend. We've had a tremendous old oak come down due to the weather
fronts that keep coming and coming. How sad. It was a giant! Gonna leave a big
hole to fill. :-( Not to mention the clean up is going to be a nightmare.
Got a question, all this rain has our ants looking for dryer ground. We have
Borax and we have Karo, but not sure the mix ratio. Can someone help? I looked
in the archives and found the 50/50 powdered sugar mix, but don't feel like
going to the grocery store so thought I'd use what we have. Any help?

The Void
There is a place deep inside where something is missing
It is a sealed-up room with nothing in it,
Where I keep things important to me,
What's missing are my hopes and dreams
Won't let myself think about those,
Because I'm hollow inside
Why torture myself, wishing for the impossible?

oh I do like this !! , yeah well I want what the world can't give me but you have to try and get it
your best write yet ...
Wish for the obtainable and then just a little more and that hollow will begin to fill. From little beginnings can come great things.
Excellent heart felt poem. Sad to think that that's how your feel but there is even a positive in that as if an emotion is recognised then a remedy can be sort.
Glad I am here at your low point waiting for tye day you feel more able to express a lighter side of your life
Your buddy
Think we've all got a place inside of us whre there is something missing. Sometimes we don't even know what that missng thing is, just a sense of loss or something not feelng right. Hope you find that missng piece.
Short and to the point. Well done.
Sometimes speaking our own ghosts and ghoulies and things that go bump in the night speaks for all of humanities empty echoing lost place deep inside.
You write strong poetry, Mike.
Many warm and kind regards, Connie

Who knew French Toast could be so polarizing? To some, it's a comforting delight, but to others, carbs, calories, and guilt. The difference is in our individual motivations: the underlying reasons why we do things. Motivations drive our decisions not only around what we choose for breakfast, but also about what products we purchase and which brands we engage with. Resonate takes a look at these drivers – and how these motivations translate into more effective marketing strategy and media plans.

Ordered this part for my Saab 9.3 and it fit perfectly and the improved performance is great. The price was less than half the cost of a true Saab part. Recommend using Parts Geek and I will continue to use them in the future.
so far this item has seemed to rectify my problem of hard start and rough idle plus limp mode.
I have not installed the part but about the delivery process and follow up it is excellent, all time you know exactly where is the product purchased.
Fixed problem, good price, fast delivery. Would use site again.
Lowest cost item I could find, and it works!
Shipping was faster than expected, in fact had I known they would get it out so fast I wouldn't have paid for the faster (2 day I think) shipping. It arrived a day earlier than I expected. The part seems to work just fine so far. Parts Geek was very easy to work with.

Like many aquatics centers,the Marilyn and Marvin Simon Family Jewish Community Center found itself at a crossroads recently.
Attendance had dropped, cleanliness had decreased, safety was compromised, and employee satisfaction was at an all-time low.
Internal changes, a new-employee orientation program and a renewed commitment to service, cleanliness and safety turned the facility around in less than six months.
Operators also decided to counteract revenue problems by expanding special programs: They instituted Luau at the Pool and Kids Night Out.
The center offers swim lessons, as well as a series of high-demand classes built around participants' schedules. Recently added classes include Aqua Games for kids, and sessions catering to elderly patrons and fitness swimmers. Private swim lessons are so popular that there are only one or two free openings each month.
The facility also makes several religious accommodations for its main clientele. Visitors will find a kosher café and programs such as separate men's and women's swims. The staff, assisted by a rabbi, follows Jewish holiday and Sabbath tradition practices. The theme of Jewish life is continued in the aquatic designs: Star of David spray zone mats and laminar features, and a Noah's Ark outdoor water spraypark.
Additionally, the center has implemented small changes to make the aquatics facility greener, including LED pool lighting, bright wall colors to allow more natural light reflection, purchasing recycled materials, restricting office paper use and running the dryer with two loads of towels instead of one. On alternate days, staffers use minimum office lighting and air conditioning, and turn off water effects and pool lights when no visitors are present.
Best Practices
Safety is vital to the center. Instead of cutting lifeguards or eliminating breaks due to budget concerns, the facility has incorporated in-services into its daily operating schedule.
Weighted dummy drills show patrons how effective lifeguards are at responding to emergencies.
"Having both indoor and outdoor amenities has allowed this facility to maximize its guest experience and fill a well-rounded calendar of fun, fitness, health and safety."
- Indoor pool with lap lanes, rapid river and spraypark
- Outdoor pool with lap lanes, zero-depth entry, winding river, Noah's Ark-themed spraypark, water slide
- Heated 3-foot-depth indoor therapy pool
- Kosher café and programs such as separate men's and women's swims

My cell phone is on its last legs. I have to insert the phone very carefully into the charger now, or else it won't charge up. For the nine (or so) years I've used a cell phone I haven't upgraded as soon as my provider would allow me to.
I did feel a little bit of urgency to upgrade to some kind of smartphone (either an iPhone or an Android) when I heard that my carrier soon was going to do away with unlimited data packages. Had I ordered yesterday, I still could have gotten an unlimited data package for $30 per month. Now, I'm only offered capped data packages (although these packages by themselves are cheaper than $30/month). Many of the cooler phones require some kind of data package.
After thinking things through, and bouncing ideas off my wife, I decided that I wouldn't get a phone (smartphone or otherwise) that required a data plan. I'll probably get one that makes texting easier, but that's it. The capped plans weren't the real reasons:
- A smartphone would be an expensive toy that I couldn't use all the time. My place of work doesn't allow camera phones, so there goes about a third of my time that I can't even use the thing. But let's say I forget about this, since this will be true of almost any phone I get. There's the purchase of the phone ($99 and up) plus the data package (at least $15/month) plus the cost of any apps I decide to get. It's immensely expensive.
- I can live without one now, but if I get one, I won't be able to live without it. I managed to get by for a long time — almost until I was married — without a cell phone. The only times it would have been useful to have one prior to that, I just waited until an officer stopped by to help me call a tow truck. It was only after I got married that I got one (on the insistence of my wife, mostly for safety reasons). But now, I really do need the stupid thing; because I've gone for such a long time with it, I'd find it very hard to give it up voluntarily. I'm confident the same thing would happen if I got a smartphone. I'd come to rely on it, and then it's all downhill from there.
- The real cost of a smartphone lies in the time spent fiddling with it. I will admit, I'd love to have a smartphone. It would be really cool. It would be so cool, I'd spend a whole lot of time playing with it. The time I'd spend with it would encroach on other things, and I doubt that I could recover the time lost playing with the phone in increased productivity. I can see myself, frankly, downloading a bunch of games. Basically, the phone would be a giant time sink. There are far more profitable things to do with my time.
That's my smartphone story, and for now, I'm sticking to it.

La Walon is within walking distance of Kuta Beach. Think of Ocean Beach in San Francisco: miles and miles of a-framing peaks, but tropical and an easier paddle.
Puri Uluwatu Villas is situated atop the low hills of Uluwatu Village. With a private path down to the surf, Puri Uluwatu is a great place for surfers and vacationers alike.
The Kartika Plaza Hotel is the perfect place to stay for surfers wanting to get into the Bali thing. Just meters south of the hotel, Kuta Reef, Airport Rights and Airport Lefts are a good introduction to the kinds of long, fast, powerful reef waves lurking farther up the Bukit Peninsula.
Located on the cliffs overlooking Suluban Beach -which is also known as the final "Racetrack" section of Uluwatu - Blue Point Bay Villas is conveniently located within a few miles of a half dozen of the most perfect waves on earth.
Bobby's surf camp is an outpost of civilization, safety and sanitary sanity in a jungle that is often none of the above.

International brand consultancy Interbrand released its rankings of the world's biggest brands yesterday, and there are some interesting shifts to take note of. We've already reported on Google being ranked higher than Microsoft, but where do our other favourite brands fall in the world's top ten?
There are some big shifts that happened in the world rankings this year, most notably the big drop by former smartphone giant BlackBerry. The Canadian-based company dropped down to 93rd place in the world rankings, down from last year's 56th place. You do the math. The drop is largely being blamed on the company's lack of innovation, causing it to stagnate in a market where consumers are demanding constant and fast advances in technology. Anyone who's used a BlackBerry in the last year knows that this hasn't happened.
This need is echoed in the two brands that have done this – Apple and Samsung. Apple has jumped from eighth place to second this year, and Samsung has entered the top ten at ninth place, up from its ranking of 17th in 2011.
Interbrand is the world's largest branding consultancy, established in 1974. Their rankings are based on the three key aspects that contribute to a brand's value; the financial performance of the branded products or service; the role the brand plays in influencing consumer choice; and the strength the brand has to command a premium price, or secure earnings for the company.
Here are the top ten brands for 2012, with their 2011 ranking in brackets:
1 (1) Coca-Cola Beverages $77,8 billion, up eight per cent.
2 (8) Apple Technology $76,6 billion, up 129 per cent
3 (2) IBM Business Services $75,5 billion, up eight per cent.
4 (4) Google $69.7 billion, up 26 per cent.
5 (3) Microsoft $57,8 billion, down two per cent.
6 (5) GE Diversified $43,7 billion, up two per cent.
7 (6) McDonald's Restaurants $40,1 billion, up 13 per cent.
8 (7) Intel Technology $39,4 billion, up 12 per cent.
9 (17) Samsung Technology $32,9 billion, up 40 per cent

Architecture of Fear
Princeton Architectural Press, 1997 - Architecture - 320 pages
"Architecture of Fear" examines the ways in which the contemporary landscape is shaped by our society's preoccupation with fear, as apparent in home design, security systems, gated communities, semi-public spaces (shopping malls, theme parks, casinos, office atriums), zoning regulations, and cyberspace. This fixation also manifests itself in efforts to provide public parks but control the problem of homelessness. The essayists in "Architecture of Fear" explain that such disjointed efforts exacerbate rather than eradicate the sources and perception of fear and insecurity. Thus, in contrast to alarmist, apocalyptic treatments, the contributors offer concrete, level-headed suggestions for proaction, not reaction, to counter both real (actual crime) and perceived (media-magnified) problems in contemporary society.
Contributors Edward J. Blakely and Mary Gail Snyder, John Chase, Michael Dear and Jurgen von Mahs, Fred Dewey, Nan Ellin, Dora Epstein, Steven Flusty, Udo Greinacher, Jane Harrison, Richard Ingersoll, Charles Jencks, Peter Marcuse, Kevin Sites, Sharon Sutton, Lois Takahashi, Anne Troutman, David Turnbull, Margaret Wertheim, Richard Sennett, and Julius Shulman approach the topic of architecture and fear from a variety of angles: 'Building Paranoia, ''Addressing Fear through Community Empowerment, ''Cyburbanism as a Way of Life, ' and 'Walls of Fear and Walls of Support, ' to name just a few.
What people are saying - Write a review
This book raises some interesting points about public architecture as well as giving a strong background in the psychology of space and coded behaviour. The variety of writing and presentation styles is in some instance refreshing. Julius Shulman's photo essay for example contains some interesting ideas; as does the chapter written as a walkthrough a changing neighbourhood.
Where this book falls down however is in its insistence to push this idea of variety beyond the boundary of interest and usefulness. The inclusion of a full set of photos of someone dancing the letters of American police codes is almost ridiculous. Dance has never been a medium suited to print anyway and certainly has nothing to do with the topic of this book. Other essay's seem to also be included for shock or surprise value and are often over opinionated and bias which is surprising given that they are meant to be intellectual studies.
Despite all this however I did still find this book useful. It is one of the only works I have found which study this side of architecture and as such it is worth reading, it could however have been just as interesting and half the price had they cut out the rubbish.

My goodness...it has taken me the better part of two weeks to catch up
on email. Doesn't help that we were all down with the flu for about a
week and a half...first the kids, one by one (which only prolongs a
mother's agony, since I got sick right after the first one did) and then
lastly the DH got sick, which pretty much meant that I basically had no
choice but to NOT be sick any longer...funny how that works, isn't it?
Then I had to spend a few days doing everything that DH should have
taken care of for the 5 days I was sick but didn't (little things--like
grocery shopping, laundry, cleaning the house) and take care of a sick
husband and kids exhausted from being sick. UGH!!!
It felt good just to get back to work after all of that. But then I
checked my email and found about 1400 messages, so have been playing
catch-up ever since. Plus I got behind in my course work and had to get
a paper written and I'm only about half done with the readings for next
week's class. Work at church is getting to be a bigger job all the time;
we have a new initiative for doing intergenerational faith formation
that I am in charge of getting started, so I've been surfacing talented
parishioners willing to serve on a committee to get this done.
Have noticed on trips in and out of the house that the snow crocus are
blooming...and the daffodils are coming up. We have been having some
strange weather days, but that is typical for Iowa in March. One morning
it started snowing about 6 a.m. and dropped about an inch of heavy, wet
snow in a couple of hours but by the time I got up at 2 that afternoon,
the temps. were in the 40's and everything had melted...crazy! We even
had one day a couple of weeks ago where the temp. was almost 70...the
next week it was back to the teens. Pool is still frozen so that's a
pretty big indicator that as far as the average temps go, it is still
very much winter here.
Anyway, hopefully now that I'm current again I'll be more of a
participant in the list instead of just reading and deleting or saving
to folders. Barring any major upsets in my life, that is. :-)

These cherries are then processed and encapsulated using an enhanced phytonutrient extraction process we call FruiTraction. Fruit Advantage is scientifically-based and precisely manufactured to deliver the potent and synergistic phytonutrients of tart cherries for fast and maximum absorption. In fact, each daily serving equals the specific antioxidant benefits of 5+ glasses of cherry juice without the sugar! Tart Cherry is a 100% all-natural product. Each daily serving of Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry delivers 1200 mg per serving. No other tart cherry capsule delivers more tart cherry per serving the Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry. Due to the proprietary manufacturing process, Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry never requires refrigeration. This makes Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry capsules ideal for travel and weekend getaways. Travers Bay Farms capsules are free of: fillers, binders, preservatives, pesticides, beeswax, alcohol, yeast, wheat, corn, dairy, egg, tree nuts, fish/shellfish, artificial colors and flavors, MSG, starch, olive oil filler, sunflower oil, sesame oil, peanut oil and rice. In two simple words - "100% Natural" Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry: Equals the specific antioxidant benefits of 5+ glasses of cherry juice without the sugar! Helps Maintain Healthy Joint Function Helps Support a Healthy Cardiovascular System Less than 1 gram of sugar and carbohydrates per serving Kosher, Gluten-Free and Vegan Friendly Delivers the highest amount of tart cherry available (1200mg per 2 capsule serving) Produced in an FDA registered facility that uses Good Manufacturing Process (GMP) Why are the synergistic properties of the tart cherry important?Answer: Cherry industry experts recommend when purchasing cherry products, consumers should view the label to ensure it contains significant amounts of tart cherry per serving. In other words, according to cherry industry experts, the more cherry the better. Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry delivers 1200mg per serving of tart cherry. This is the most amount of cherry available on the market. Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry is specifically engineered to deliver the natural, synergistic benefits of the compounds found in the tart cherry. How does Fruit Advantage Tart Cherry help promote a healthy cardiovascular system?Answer: Cherries are packed with powerful health-promoting properties. Research indicates tart cherries contain at least 17 natural compounds including beta carotene, vitamin A, Melatonin and phenol compounds known as flavonoids. Studies suggest flavonoids help promote cardiovascular health. Some of the specific flavonoids in cherries include anthocyanins, proanthocyanins and anthocyanidins. Anthocyanins are naturally occurring compounds that give fruits, vegetables and plants their vibrant color. Tart cherries are a good source of these vital flavonoids. Brunswick Labs located in Wareham, MA discovered that tart cherries also contain a class of compounds called SOD (super oxide dismutase), which act as super scavengers of dangerous free radicals throughout the body. Very few foods contain SOD and the human body is often lacking in SOD. Super Fruit CapsulesSuper fruit capsules deliver the specific antioxidant benefits of the underlying fruit in an easy-to-swallow capsule. Our super fruit capsules are an excellent way to get the natural health benefits of the underlying fruit without all of the sugar. With today's busy and hectic lifestyle, the Fruit Advantage Super Fruit Capsules are ideal for those looking to enjoy an active and healthy lifestyle.

Does anyone know any good websites for dressage beginners?
What are some good dressage websites? Im looking for anything from basic info to training video's. This is my first year riding dressage (I've spent the last 15 years riding western and just bought a friesian gelding trained in mid level dressage). Ive googled and googled haven't found very good sites at all! Thanks everyone!
I'm having the same trouble, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna stick with dressage. I think I'm going to do something where I can jump.
You might want to try Barnmice.
The Art of Classical Riding--Dressage Training for Horse and Rider
I like this site. It has articles on the various aspects of classical dressage.
Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for!

Continued support is requested for an ongoing program of graduate research training in molecular biology and biophysics at the University of Oregon. This training activity is centered in the Institute of Molecular Biology, and also involves additional groups with related scientific interests. Funds are requested for 12 predoctoral positions, within a program that includes approximately 59 graduate students, 47 postdoctoral trainees, and 22 training faculty. The program places special emphasis on the control of gene expression and nucleic acid structure/function, molecular basis of signaling and cell function, protein structure and dynamics, and molecular approaches to development and differentiation. The basic aspect of the training is laboratory research carried out under the direction of a facult member in the molecular biology and biophysics training program. Through this experience, the trainee becomes skilled at posing questions about fundamental biological processes and designing experiments to answer those questions. The training is augmented by formal courses offered by the Biology, Chemistry, and Physics Departments, by seminar programs that highlight current research in molecular biology, biophysics, and related disciplines, by the close involvement of a Thesis Advisory Committee, and by research seminar and journal club presentations by trainees. The training facilities include the laboratories of the faculty and support services such as the structural biology biophysical facility, the state-of-the-art genomics and imaging facilities, and a large number of other modern facilities. Major equipment is shared and housed in common space. The laboratories of most of the faculty are contiguous and in interconnected buildings. This arrangement fosters strong interdisciplinary interactions and collaborations among faculty and students.
This proposal is to provide support for graduate training leading to the Ph.D. degree in molecular biology and biophysics. Our goal is to produce creative, intellectually critical, and experimentally skilled bioscientists. We believe that trainig towards this end is first and foremost accomplished at the laboratory bench, and training is focused on learning to find a rigorous experimental answer to a significant scientific question. The training program actively promotes strongly interdisciplinary and collaborative science. We want our students to develop into imaginative and capable research scientists, equipped with the knowledge to lead research programs of their own, thereby strengthening the national resource in this area.

Serves 6
This recipe is the Middle Eastern version of kebabs. It's traditionally made with delicious lamb that's most succulent when cooked medium-rare. Serve the kebabs on a bed of Classic Rice Pilaf (page 133 of the book) with the Eggplant Tagine (page 139) or with the Onion-sumac Relish (page 160)
Lamb Kebabs
12 lamb loin chops (about 4-1/2 pounds)
2 large onions, thinly sliced
2 lemons, thinly sliced
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons coarsely ground black pepper
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon salt
Vegetable Kebabs
1/4 up olive oil
1-1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
12 large white mushrooms
4 small red bell peppers, each cut into 6 large chunks
2 large Japanese eggplants, each cut crosswise into 6 pieces
2 large zucchini, each cut crosswise into 6 pieces
To make the lamb kebabs: Using a sharp knife, remove the two pieces of meat from each chop. Trim away any fat and sinew from the meat. Cut the larger pieces of meat crosswise in half. Toss the onions, lemon slices, oil, pepper, soy sauce, and salt in a large bowl. Add the meat. Using your hands, massage the marinade into the meat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days, stirring occasionally. Thread 6 pieces of the lamb onto each of 6 skewers, spacing the meat 1/2-inch apart. Cover and refrigerate until ready to grill.
To make the vegetable kebabs: Whisk the oil, rosemary, black pepper, and salt, in a large bowl to blend. Add the vegetables and toss to coat. Let stand up to 1 hour at room temperature, tossing occasionally. Thread 1 mushroom, 4 pieces of bell pepper, 2 pieces of eggplant, and 2 pieces of zucchini alternately onto each of 6 skewers.
Prepare the barbecue for high heat. Grill the lamb until it is crisp and brown on the outside but pink in the center, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes. Grill the vegetable kebabs until the vegetables are tender and beginning to char, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes.
Arrange the skewers on plates and serve.
COOK'S NOTES: Lamb loin chops make especially delicious kebabs because they are the most tender cut of lamb. And, once trimmed, the lamb loin is free of gristle and fat. Ask your butcher to bone the iamb loin chops for you, making this a cinch to put together. If lamb loin is not available, boneless leg of lamb is a good substitute, just but be sure to remove as much gristle and fat as possible. And, if desired, beef tenderloin can be used instead of the lamb loin.
Serve the skewers on a platter accompanied with feta cheese, cilantro, fresh mint, olives, cucumber slices, tomatoes, walnuts, and a bowl of Tzatziki Sauce (page 182), Onion-Sumac Relish (page 160) and warm pita bread wedges.
