Until this month, Mali was a large, faraway country of which we knew little. It was one of the 50 poorest countries in the world. It was the home of the popular world music duo, Amadou and Mariam. It was the site of one of the globe's mythical destinations, Timbuktu.
But in the past 10 days, Mali has leap-frogged to the top of the news bulletins and the list of crises facing Western governments. Why?
According to Paris, and now London, northern Mali threatens to become a Taliban state on Europe's doorstep. A loose alliance of Islamist movements – two of them local and one multinational – seeks to turn Mali into the core of a jihadist empire stretching 2,000 miles across the notional frontiers of 10 states in northern and western Africa from Nigeria to Libya.
France, the former colonial power, intervened militarily 10 days ago to prevent the Islamist movements from conquering the south of Mali. Despite some logistical help from Britain and others, and the promise of a pan-West-African army, France has so far acted almost alone.
The bloody attack on the BP-run gas field in eastern Algeria last week was supposedly retaliation against the French intervention. It was probably planned long before. All the same, the four-day siege of the gas complex and the deaths of dozens of hostages from half a dozen countries grimly made France's point.
The battle for Mali is not just about Mali. It is not just a case of France meddling in its former African colonies – something that President François Hollande swore to end when he entered the Elysée Palace last year.
After initial support, the centre-right opposition in France has started in recent days to criticise President Hollande's alleged "international isolation" and "lack of preparedness". This drumbeat appears to have been encouraged in part by former President Nicolas Sarkozy.
And yet Mr Sarkozy, for good reasons and bad, is partly responsible for what is happening in Mali. The revolution against Muammar Gaddafi in 2011, aided by Mr Sarkozy and David Cameron, released vast quantities of modern weapons from the Libya state arsenal into the Sahara. Distracted by the presidential election last year, Mr Sarkozy was slow to respond when these weapons armed a Tuareg rebellion in northern Mali 12 months ago.
Mali was what was left of the old 19th- and 20th-century French empire in West Africa when the other chunks were given, or opted for, independent statehood 50 years ago. The country sprawls like a butterfly the size of two Spains across the ethnic and climactic fault-line between Saharan and sub-Saharan Africa.
The larger, northerly wing of the butterfly consists of desert and semi-desert, inhabited sparsely by Tuareg and Maures and Arabs. The smaller, southern wing is grassland and tropical forest, occupied by 90 per cent of the 14.5 million Malians from a dozen different black African peoples. For many years, despite its poverty and bizarre geography, Mali counted as a relative African success story. From 1991, there was a flourishing democracy. Ethnic tensions were mild.
Corruption and neglect in Bamako fuelled the Tuareg revolt in the north last year, which was, originally, more separatist than Islamist. The rebellion generated a coup in Bamako, which left the Malian state and army in near-collapse.
In April the Mouvement National pour la Libération de l'Azawad (MNLA) declared a new Tuareg state but was immediately overwhelmed by an Islamist breakaway wing and two other Islamist movements. The largest of these, al-Qa'ida in the Islamic Maghreb (Aqim) consists of jihadists from throughout the world led by Algerian exiles (a mirror image of the French Foreign Legion).
Aqim led the attack on the south of Mali this month which brought France into the war (as it knew it must). It was a splinter-group of Aqim which attacked the BP gas complex (800 miles from the Malian border). In both cases, the motive seems to have been to draw Western governments into a "new Afghanistan" in the Sahara which would increase the kudos, and recruitment power, of Aqim among jihad-minded Muslims all over the globe.
The West is therefore damned if it does intervene in Mali and damned if it does not. Hence the geo-political importance of efforts to put together a West African army, 3,000-strong or more, to take the fight to the rebels.
European Union countries agreed last week to send soldiers to train the West Africans. The record of such pan-African forces is poor. The Malian army's record is poorer. There are fears among the defeated Tuareg secular nationalists of ethnic reprisals if the Malian army moves north.
The French Defence Minister, Jean-Yves Le Drian, insisted, nonetheless, at the weekend that France's war aim is to recapture every square millimetre of the deserts of northern Mali. Taken alone, these amount to about 300,000 square miles – substantially larger than Afghanistan.

Scorched Earth by Rocky Barker
Book DescriptionIn 1988, forest fires raged in Yellowstone National Park, destroying more than a million acres. As the nation watched the land around Old Faithful burn, a longstanding conflict over fire management reached a fever pitch. Should the U.S. Park and Forest Services suppress fires immediately or allow some to run their natural course? When should firefighters be sent to battle the flames and at what cost?In "Scorched Earth," Barker, an environmental reporter who was on the ground and in the smoke during the 1988 fires, shows us that many of today's arguments over fire and the nature of public land began to take shape soon after the Civil War. As Barker explains, how the government responded to early fires in Yellowstone and to private investors in the region led ultimately to the protection of 600 million acres of public lands in the United States. Barker uses his considerable narrative talents to bring to life a fascinating, but often neglected, piece of American history. "Scorched Earth" lays a new foundation for examining current fire and environmental policies in America and the world.Our story begins when the West was yet to be won, with a colorful cast of characters: a civil war general and his soldiers, America's first investment banker, railroad men, naturalists, and fire-fighters-all of whom left their mark on Yellowstone. As the truth behind the creation of America's first national park is revealed, we discover the remarkable role the U.S. Army played in protecting Yellowstone and shaping public lands in the West. And we see the developing efforts of conservation's great figures as they struggled to preserve our heritage. With vivid descriptions of the famous fires that have raged in Yellowstone, the heroes who have tried to protect it, and the strategies that evolved as a result, Barker draws us into the very heart of a debate over our attempts to control nature and people.This entertaining and timely book challenges the traditional views both of those who arrogantly seek full control of nature and those who naively believe we can leave it unaltered. And it demonstrates how much of our broader environmental history was shaped in the lands of Yellowstone.

Sitton causes the most concern for Packers
Green Bay - All things considered, the Green Bay Packers came out of their Thanksgiving Day game with the Detroit Lions about as well as one could expect given they were playing their third game in 11 days.
Besides winning, 27-15, they lost three players to injury, but it appears two of them should be ready in time to play the New York Giants on Dec. 4.
The only variable is guard Josh Sitton.
According to coach Mike McCarthy, Sitton suffered a separate injury from the one that had been bothering him for more than a month and contributed to him playing below his standards. McCarthy said Sitton would be "hard-pressed" to play against the Giants.
He did not predict what Sitton's status beyond that would be, but it's likely tests on the knee will reveal exactly how bad it is. McCarthy gave no indication that the injury was potentially season-ending or if the prognosis is already known.
Evan Dietrich-Smith replaced Sitton and besides being on the receiving end of Lions nose tackle Ndamukong Suh's nationally televised stomp, didn't stick out like a sore thumb. However, McCarthy would not commit to Dietrich-Smith as his starter against the Giants, saying that rookies RayDominguez and Derek Sherrod will be in the running as well.
McCarthy said the best part of Dietrich-Smith's insertion into the lineup was that he didn't have to alter the offense to make up for his weaknesses.
"Anytime a player goes into the game, particularly on offense, and you don't have to adjust your plan, that in itself is a win," McCarthy said. "Now, did he have a winning performance? That's something we'll go through with all our players when they get back here Tuesday.
"But we did not have to deviate from anything that we had in the game plan, and that's a credit to all our players that stepped up yesterday and played."
McCarthy was including rookie D.J. Smith and Robert Francois, who stepped in when Desmond Bishop and A.J. Hawk pulled calf muscles. Both backups did a yeoman's job filling in on short notice.
The two were thrust into a defense normally orchestrated by Hawk, who gets the play call from the sidelines on the receiver in his helmet and then relays it to his teammates. He is responsible for making sure the front seven is in proper position.
Against the Lions, neither Smith nor Francois was one of the two defenders who can have a helmet receiver, so hand signals were used mostly.
"I think that's the first time in my career that both guys with the headset went out," defensive coordinator Dom Capers said. "So at halftime, we talked about how we were going to communicate and fortunately we had Rob Francois up this week. We've been going with three inside linebackers most of the season. "
As for their performance, Capers said, "I'll say this: D.J. Smith stepped in and did a tremendous job. Rob Francois, for not taking many repetitions during the week, he was working a lot on the service teams then. He did a fine job."
McCarthy was fairly confident that Bishop and Hawk would be available for the Giants game. They'll have until as late as Thursday to rest and receive treatment.
Also, McCarthy said left tackle Chad Clifton will not be ready to practice this week and it could be awhile. He said he thought he was doing better than he really was when he set the Giants game as a possible return date.
Taking it easy: Running back James Starks returned from the ankle and knee injuries he suffered against Tampa Bay on Sunday. But with just four carries, McCarthy didn't feel the need to overuse his top back. When the Packers went ahead, 21-0, he eased up on Starks.
Ryan Grant had five second-half carries, while Starks had one. Brandon Saine also saw his first offensive action of the season with 19 total yards.
"I thought he (Starks) started strong but frankly once we got it to 21-0, we talked briefly on the phone with Jerry Fontenot and we felt we'd give the ball to Ryan and get Brandon in there," McCarthy said. "We didn't feel the need to max James out. I thought he played well. On his one draw play, he looked like his normal self. I thought it was very encouraging, especially coming out of the Tampa Bay game. We all thought it was worse."
The rushing game was not overly effective. The Packers managed just 53 yards on 18 carries. But it did keep the Lions off-balance.
Coaches were also impressed with Saine. They particularly like his humble nature.
"I really like him a lot," offensive coordinator Joe Philbin said. "I don't think he's said 'boo' since he's been here, which for a rookie that's good. I try to say 'good morning' and he doesn't even acknowledge me, which is good. I think that's great. He keeps his mouth shut and does his job."
Starting fast: Early this season, McCarthy drew some criticism for deferring after winning the coin toss. Opposing teams got quick leads on Green Bay and kept Aaron Rodgers off the field.
Lately, the opposite has been true. Again, on Thursday, deferring worked. The defense started fast, shutting out Detroit through the first half.
The Lions' dangerous offense was muted right away. At halftime, Matthew Stafford's passer rating was 59.0 and he never found a rhythm.
"I thought that'd be important with the crowd there," Capers said. "Obviously we deferred and put the defense out there first. We don't want to get the crowd into the game. . . . The next thing we talked about was we needed to take away their big-play guys. Obviously, the first guy that comes to mind is ( Calvin) Johnson. As you guys saw, a lot of the game plan was based around that."

PLANS for this city's first facility serving both the independent elderly and assisted-living residents , with a total of 250 apartments, are shaping up for a bluff overlooking the Hudson River on a former campus of Iona College.
At present, the plans call for 180 independent-living units and 70 apartments for assisted living on North Broadway. The complex would be called Seton Manor.
In 1995, after Iona closed its campus -- once the site of Elizabeth Seton College -- Henry George Greene, a Scarsdale developer, purchased 7.6 acres of property on a bluff at the campus's southern end. The site was ideal for such a development, Mr. Greene said at the time, since it abuts a parcel where St. John's Riverside Hospital plans to build a skilled nursing home.
''Even though it's on what was a college campus, it's ideal for a residential development since the property overlooks the river,'' Mr. Greene said. ''And all the apartments will have fantastic views.''Continue reading the main story
While there's no direct connection between the two projects, hospital officials have met with Mr. Greene several times, according to Jim Foy, chief operating officer for the hospital. ''We're very enthusiastic that residents there who want to stay in the neighborhood may choose to live with us when the need arises,'' he said.
The reason for the absence of such projects as Mr. Greene's, which have proliferated elsewhere in the county, is primarily because there is little developable land in the city, according to Vincenza Restiano, president of the Yonkers City Council.
''The former Iona campus is one of the last remaining parcels left,'' said Ms. Restiano. ''We absolutely need this kind of housing. We're hoping that it can be utilized by the residents of our area, so there won't be change in population, just a shift in it.''
Ms. Restiano said that the City Council was now analyzing Mr. Greene's environmental-impact statement, and will hold a public hearing on the project in the next few weeks. After the environmental-impact process is completed, the Council will consider granting a zoning change, necessary because the property is now zoned for school use only.
''We'll have to change it to allow for a multiple dwelling,'' Ms. Restiano said, ''but the sentiment in the Council is that it should only be used for assisted living and not any other residential use.''
The project has been the subject of some community concern since it will be built on a bluff overlooking the river and bordering the Old Croton Aqueduct. ''This area of the city is already overdeveloped,'' said Councilman Rich Martinelli. ''And the fact that it's also near the river and the Aqueduct means we have to be very careful about the environmental analysis.''
GRANTING a zoning change for such an environmentally sensitive piece of property also concerns him, Mr. Martinelli said. ''If the property is flipped by Mr. Greene, we need to guarantee that other people can't come in and build whatever they want there.''
The site sits about 100 feet above Warburton Avenue, which is the street closest to the river. Although the design details still need to be worked out, Mr. Greene said that he plans to come up with an architectural plan that ''will be in keeping with the surrounding architecture,'' he said.
''It will be a monumental-type design, probably Georgian in style,'' he added.
Ever since the 21-acre Iona College campus closed, there has been intense interest and speculation on how it will be utilized or developed. In 1995, Yonkers purchased 14 acres, including a classroom building, a dormitory and the 1912 Renaissance Revival Alder Mansion, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The city now uses the classroom building for the Foxfire School, a public elementary school for pre-k to third grade, and the dormitory is used for an adult-education program.
It is now negotiating a possible sale of the Alder Mansion to Tara Circle, an Irish cultural organization that would use the building for its headquarters. An earlier plan by Tara Circle to acquire the former Kings College campus in Briarcliff Manor failed in the face of community opposition.
The parcel purchased by Mr. Greene is just an overgrown lot, bordering a parking area.
''Mr. Greene has not been too diligent about maintaining the property, which is a concern,'' said Mr. Martinelli. ''It's an eyesore now. The sooner something is done to it the better, but it has to be the right thing in the right way.''
Pending approvals, Mr. Greene intends to build a mix of one-bedroom, one-bedroom with den and two-bedroom units. Some services such as housekeeping, transportation, shopping and at-home nurse visits would also be available, he explained.
THE apartments are expected to sell for $185,000 to $250,000 in a life lease. ''That means the price is refunded to the resident's estate,'' he said. ''That's what the market is demanding.''
Mr. Greene is also planning a similar project in Bronxville, where apartments are expected to cost $275,000 to $500,000. ''The Yonkers project will be more moderately priced,'' Mr. Greene said, ''in keeping with properties in the surrounding area.''
Plans for St. John's Riverside Hospital's 120-bed nursing home are now nearing completion and construction is expected to begin this summer, said Mr. Foy.
The planned four-story Y-shaped building will ne built into a hill that slopes down toward the river. ''In fact, it will look like two stories from the front entrance,'' Mr. Foy said. ''The idea was to make the building as invisible as possible.''
The base of the Y will be on the east side, away from the river, and will be used for administration,'' Mr. Foy explained. ''The two arms of the Y will be the patient units and all the rooms will have river views.''
Plans for the home originated some dozen years ago, but were held up, in large part, because of several lawsuits brought against the hospital and the city administration by community groups concerned about development so close to the river.
The hospital property was once part of the Beaux-Arts estate of Samuel Untermeyer, a wealthy lawyer and botanist. The site still retains some of the features of formal Italian garden terraces.
The Hudson Communities Coalition, which includes conservationist and homeowner groups from Riverdale to Ossining, unsuccessfully sued the Yonkers City Council in 1995 for not designating the site a historic landmark, which would have limited any type of development.
''All the suits have now been settled,'' Mr. Foy said, ''and we're going ahead. But I wouldn't be surprised if something else comes up before we start construction.''
As it is, there's a good chance now that the nursing home and assisted-living development will be under construction at the same time, which is a fortunate coincidence, said Ms. Restiano.
''It's just an accident that it's worked out this way,'' she said. ''But it makes a convincing argument to me that these are the right uses for the sites and for the community at this time.''Continue reading the main story

The rack is held in place by passing the saddle post through the rack and securing it with a lock pin. The rack can be removed compleately in less than 10 seconds so if it is a bike you use for regular use this rack will be perfect
I've been using this regularly for a year now. Since i don't have too many build pictures i will add some drawings of the assembly along with the instructions
Considerations For the build
- For the build use the smallest diameter PVC pipe through with seat post will pass.
- Choose pipe that is thick (higher guage)
- Build the rack so that the board sits on the side of the road your ride on.
- PVC pipe ( approximately 8 times the width of your board)
- 90 degree elbow bend ( 7 numbers)
- T junction (4 numbers)
- Suitable Size lock pin or a bolt
- Measuring Tape
- Hack Saw Blade
- Drill
- PVC Solvent cement or other suitable adhesive

MinneCulture presents
The History of Rondo
Wed, Feb 19, 7:30pm
St. Paul's oldest African-American neighborhood is named after French Canadian fur trader Joseph Rondeau. After the civil war and during the reconstruction period in the south, many African Americans sought a better life and moved north. Some arrived in St. Paul, Minnesota, where jobs in the railroad and lumber industries were plentiful.
Starting a new life on Rondo Avenue, residents became entrepreneurs, opening businesses and catering to the local community. Bonds were formed and frienships developed. A tight-knit neighborhood of people committed to education and opportunity evolved. Families looked out for one another.
Then in the 1960s, construction of Interstate 94 divided Rondo—shattering the community and displacing thousands of African Americans into a racially segregated city and discriminatory housing market. It radically changed the landscape, and erased a now-legendary neighborhood.
Rondo still exists and its persistence and growth are celebrated through events like Rondo Days and the Jazz Festival.
On Wednesday, Feb 19, at 7:30pm, MinneCulture presents an audio documentary on the History of Rondo, produced by Allison Herrera with assistance from Stuart Rosen. MinneCulture is made possible by a grant from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund. Photos courtesy of the Minnesota History Center and Allison Herrera.

There are many reasons to believe that right now the Yankees can't trade A.J. Burnett. However, that is not going to keep them from trying. Yankees GM Brian Cashman first said he could trade Burnett at the beginning of this offseason. So the whispers have been present the whole winter.
Are they about to become louder?
So even if you think Burnett is not as bad as most believe, as Wally Matthews argued yesterday, the only way to really deal him is to eat a lot of his money. Then the Yankees have to ask themselves if they are better with Burnett or without Burnett.
We reported yesterday that the Yankees would like to do still sign both a DH (Johnny Damon, Raul Ibanez or Hideki Matsui) and Eric Chavez. Joel Sherman of the Post said he thinks the Yankees will need to trade Burnett to do that. We shall see.
Here is the thing on Burnett. I don't believe he would like losing his spot in the rotation. However, I also don't think he would be a huge distraction either. In fact, it may prove as a motivator for him.
Since Burnett's been with the Yankees they have tried to coddle him with his preference of catcher (No Jorge, thanks) and the days that he pitches, however some tough love may work better.
Burnett may speak his mind, but I think they will likely become one day stories with Burnett doing his best to avoid public spats. I could be wrong, but that is what my gut tells me.
As a scout -- probably a better source of info than my gut -- told me yesterday the Yankees are going to need seven or eight starters, at least, so they don't have to trade any of these starters.
To me, to trade Burnett so you can fit Ibanez and Eric Chavez onto your roster doesn't make that much sense. (I'm in favor of Damon over Ibanez, in case you didn't know.)
As for Chavez, he is a talented and pleasant guy, but he really isn't worth much. You can dream about him staying healthy, but he never does. His 58 games last year were the most for him since he played 90 in 2007. So what is he really worth? How much worse would he be with, say, Brandon Laird? In theory, Laird would be available more.
MLB Trade Rumors looked into something I had on my agenda for today. What teams could possibly want A.J.? Which clubs could be a match? They had the Pirates, the White Sox, the Orioles and the A's.
Now, Burnett has 10 teams he can block trades to and it is unknown if any of those teams are on the list. Besides the fact his wife is from the Baltimore area, I can't really see why he would want to go to any of those cities. He may not have a choice, though, if he didn't put them on the list.
Ultimately, with two years and $33 million remaining on his contact, the Yankees are going to have to eat about $23M to $25M, in our estimation, if they are going to be able to trade Burnett before spring training.
If it doesn't happen in the next two weeks, the story will not disappear. This is a mini-series may be just getting started, even if the Yankees hope to make it short-lived.

I think it's time to share this once more: A Sane Revolution by D.H. Lawrence If you make a revolution, make it for fun, Don't make it in ghastly seriousness, Don't do it in deadly earnest, Do it for fun. Don't do it because you hate people, Do it just to spit in their eye. Don't do it for the money, Do it and be damned the money. Don't do it for equality, Do it because we've got too much equality And it would be fun to upset the apple-cart And see which waythe apples would go a-rolling. Don't do it for the working-classes. Do it so that we can All of us be little aristocracys on our owon And kick our heels like jolly escaped asses. Don't do it, anyhow, for international labour. Labour is one thing a man has had too much of. Let's abolish labour, let's have done with labouring! Work can be fun, and Men can enjoy it; then it's not labour. Let's have it so! Let's make a revolution for fun! oxox This is a great philosophy. Embrace the awesomeness! Kev
Given some of the emotional turmoil many here have been through the last couple of days, I felt like sharing somethng special, something different. And, for once, I'll let someone do my speaking for me; someone who could explain this much better than me: A Sane Revolution by D.H. Lawrence If you make a revolution, make it for fun, Don't make it in ghastly seriousness, Don't do it in deadly earnest, Do it for fun. Don't do it because you hate people, Do it just to spit in their eye. Don't do it for the money, Do it and be damned the money. Don't do it for equality, Do it because we've got too much equality And it would be fun to upset the apple-cart And see which waythe apples would go a-rolling. Don't do it for the working-classes.

Let's make a revolution for fun! xxxxxxx This is a great philosophy. Embrace the awesomeness! Kev
We were so motivated by your D.H. Lawrence we lit a couch on fire! Great writing in the blog!
I did well in school as a teenager, and often got invited to things like the yearbook club, honor society, etc. I always turned down those offers--I knew even then these things just weren't for me. Most of the reason I did well in school was because I didn't like it--I just wanted out. It was a business to me-punch in, do your work, punch out, go home. I didn't fit in well with any of the groups:not athletic enough for the jocks, not handsome or rich enough for the preps, not quite lame enough for the geeks. I did my own thing. I used to spend lunches in the music room most of the time, practicing guitar which was something I actually was good at. It was there I discovered a new group of people--the stoners. A long-haired dude with a skeleton shirt approached me in the music room and we hit it off right way. One long-haired dude turned into another, then another, and suddenly there was a group of us meeting up in the music room every day. We'd be in awe of some dude that showed up and played "Master Of Puppets" perfectly or hear yet another rendition of Randy Rhoades' "Dee." I had short hair and got good grades, didn't smoke didn't get high. These guys didn't care-we bonded because of our love for music--mostly metal. Some of these guys became life-long friends (and I'll save you the suspense--to this day I've never gotten stoned). When considering the yearbook club one day, I noticed how many in there had ulterior motives. Some wanted to be popular, some wanted good transcripts, some wanted control over whose picture was going to appear in the yearbook the most times. I walked away. That was the day I became a stoner...sort of. I am who I am, and try and surround myself with people who ARE who they ARE. I will never settle for less. Ever. Read between the lines...and have an awesome day.
If I remember correctly (it's been a while), Heisenberg's uncertainty principle stated basically that on the sub-atomic level, we can know either the momentum of a particle OR it's location. We cannot know both, however, because on the sub-atomic level, an energy exchange occurs due to our observing the particle, causing it to change its postion. In other words, observing something changes it. I'm inclined to apply this concept to music. I believe the listener has the ability to "change" the music to a certain degree. I believe if someone is actively listening to a song, they have the power of trasformiing that song (if it is well-done, and ESPECIALLY if the production is good) into something that might suit them more, even if it's a song that normally wouldn't appeal to them stylistically. This opens the door for that unity between artist and listener that is the "holy grail" that I've sought for many years--and continue to seek after in the form of Atomic Honey. I want to find a way to not only have our listeners enjoy and relate to our songs, but to actually become a part of the songs. This is much easier done live, of course, and the reason live shows will continue to thrive regardless of downward trends in the industry. My thoughts. Embrace the awesomeness, my friends! Kev
And Schroedinger's cat! Great blogs. It is funny that the yearbook club mentality exists in adults too.
About 4 years ago I got turned onto vintage audio equipment after stumbling onto an old Sansui Quad from '73 at a thrift store. Even through cheap speakers, the amazing difference in sound jumped out right away. I've sinced learned a lot more, have added many more awesome vintage amps, top-notch vintage speakers, pre-amps, and even learned the superiority of D/A converters over CD players. The reason I bring this up is because, about this time, I started "actively" listening to music for the 1st time in my life. By "active," I mean I didn't just listen to the music and words--I shut my eyes and discovered what a sound-field was, that I could get inside it, and discover where certain nuances and overtones were located in this invisible sphere. This was really the beginning of what would become Atomic Honey. I learned that music is 3-dimensional, and that by adjusting things, you could re-locate things in the sound-field. I learned that panning left & right doesn't JUST make it go left or right--it relocates it in the sphere, like the tilt of a planet. After re-discovering many old classics this way, the desire came to manipulate my OWN music this way. So ultimately, this is what I'm after to this day, and I'm starting to zero in on it just a little--finding OUR sound, I mean. Our music is meant to be listened to in this manner--most of it anyway. You do not get the effect by listening through an iPod dock, headphones, or one of those 1500w surround sound sytems from Costco. We hope our listeners will take the time to shut their eyes, enter the sound-field, and absorb the overtones. I was going to connect this to Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, but I've already written more than I intended. I will save that for the next entry. Stay tuned and awesome! Kev
A lot of beautiful things have happened for Atomic Honey the last couple of weeks that are the direct result of beautiful support from beautiful people. I've met a lot of amazing people on ReverbNation over the last few months, but lately I've felt like it's time to think about genuine love amongst artists for a few minutes. We are all here to succeed in one way or another:some want to make money, some want their songs heard, some want to be famous, and some just need to pour out their soul. All are valid reasons, of course. I learned from a book years ago (The Road Less Traveled by M. Scott Peck) that genuine love really has nothing to do with feelings and emotions. If you show someone genuine love, your only hope for them is to grow--mentally, spiritually--and even musically. In brief, love builds people up and encourages them. Illegitimate love tends to tell people what they want to hear which often doesn't help them to grow. I do not think that telling a new, aspiring artists that their music is great without even listening to it is a good thing--for any of the parties involved. Fan 'em, sure--we all need the numbers--I get that--but be sincere about it. And if you can't find anything at all nice to say about their music, then don't say anything--just fan them back and leave it at that. Or don't. Just be sincere. I call this Atomic Love Theory because the best way to build people up is to tear them down (and yes, this can be done in a warm and loving manner). Break things down to the atomic level so they can release energy and rebuild themselves into a higher state. Many of us here are used to insincerity that happens on this site from time to time, but please let's think of the new people that are scared, insecure and still feeling their way around. Be honest with them; build them up; love them--genuinely. --Kev (Atomic Honey)
My song "Three" was actually inspired by my daughter, Angel, who was--you guessed it--3 years old at the time. One morning she came into my room to wake me up, and her face was glowing with excitement. She said "Dada, guess what?!" I asked her what, and she replied "I just woke up the sun." I said "Really--that's awesome. How did you do it?" She shrugged her shoulders, smiling, and told me, "I just looked out my window (her room faces east) and said Sun, wake up--and it did!" The song just fell into place. I had the entire structure laid-out before dinnertime. Easiest song I've ever done--it literally wrote itself (with a little help from Angel). I titled the song "Three" because she was 3 years old, there are three of us (me, my son, and my daughter), and as a tribute to the Holy Trinity.
Those of you who have spent adequate time playing the board game Stratego probably know that the real key to winning this game is keeping your Marshall hidden for as long as possible (to those of you unfamiliar, I can offer little help, sadly). Over the years, I've learned that this applies to our lives in general. Though the ultimate goal may be to capture the opponent's flag, your best chance at doing that is in not revealing your full potential unless it becomes absolutely necessary. Here's the best part: if you've played the game properly, you'll never have to.
It's an interesting (and little-known) fact that there is very little difference between a note you play on an instrument and a particle of light. By definition, the only thing that travels at the speed of light is, in fact, light. If you were to play a note on an instrument and accelerate it to the speed of light, it would be indistinguishable from light. Audio becomes visual; music becomes imagery--quite literally.
So if notes can become light, then our songs can become entire spectrums, no?

The Federal Aviation Administration is sending letters to airports with planned tower closures due to federal budget cuts. The FAA will allow airports to appeal closures if they would have national effects on air transportation. "Negative impact on the national interest is the only criterion the FAA will use," the letters read. "The FAA is unable to consider local community impact."

I have been documenting my personal history since I was seven years old. I have countless notebooks filled with my thoughts on my personhood, my relationships, the relationships of those I knew and the communities I took space in.
I wrote for years and years and as I did my interest in and reflections on community continued to develop rapidly. In high school, I started a blog (whoa).
Then, I started to feel that my words alone were not adequate, and turned to photography as a guiding passion. My dualistic interest in exploring both community and photography led me to creating my own major, visual sociology, when I began my undergraduate career at Wheaton.
The interdisciplinary nature of visual sociology has afforded me the opportunity to fully explore photography's powerful ability to not only impact communities, but also provide a sociological lens through which to understand them.
Now, I am a senior in college, taking Introduction to New Media with Professor Josh Stenger continuing to explore these interests.

Very charming and spacious villa (GPS coordinates: 36° 44' 45" N 3° 37' 59" W), situated in a quiet urbanization right in between the two coastal villages Salobreña and Almuñécar. The urbanization is very well kept and the properties are owned by many different nationalities including French, German, Belgian, Scandinavian, Spanish and English. It also has a community swimming pool and a tennis court (both to be used for free) at walking distance. Down the road a bus stops with hourly connections to Salobreña, Almuñécar, Granada and Málaga.
Our villa, 'Villa Vistasmar', is south facing and is surrounded by lots of terraces (450 sqm), gardens and enjoys breathtaking sea views. It was fully restored two years ago (new kitchens, bathrooms and terraces etc.) and has very good access. Situated only a few hundred meters away from the N340 and 400 meters from the sea and a little beach. The villa has four bedrooms (three on the main floor and one in the guest apartment), four bathrooms and two modern fitted kitchens. The main floor holds a comfortable and spacious living room with a fireplace and lots of sofas to relax. The apartment bedroom (14 m2) sleeps two persons, but in case a group of ten guests will stay, the sofa bed can be used. There are Smart TV's with satellite and WiFi internet connections. The villa has central heating and therefore it is also very comfortable during winter time.
There are a kidney-shaped swimming pool (2/4,50 x 10 meters), five terraces (each with sofas, sun loungers, tables and chairs) and lovely gardens with flowers and tropical trees. The villa offers lots of privacy. In the near environment you can walk, bike, play golf, go horse riding and both Salobreña and Almuñécar offer a variety of good restaurants.
We have left the original details intact, so the villa has the typical Spanish atmosphere. We added some luxury, without trying to be too perfect or decadent. The villa is nicely situated on top of a hill, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, Salobreña, Motril, Torrenueva and the urbanization. There is actually too much you can see and do. You can go for a walk in the mountains, go for skiing in the Sierra Nevada (only a one hour drive), visit the Alhambra, go to the prehistoric caves of Nerja or enjoy a walk in prize winning Frigiliana …
The most surprising advantage of the villa is the combination of enjoying the tranquility of a seaside villa on one side and the liveliness of the coastal area on the other hand. Especially in July and August it may get very busy in Salobreña and Almuñécar. When you are in or around the villa and relaxing on one of the terraces, it may occur that the shepherd and his sheep pass by! The breathtaking sea views in front of you and the always changing sunrises and -sets are also hard to describe.
Enjoy the moment! For us a dream comes true every morning when we see the sun rise from the sea.
Every bedroom in Villa Vistasmar has a king size bed and a fan. We have not chosen for airconditioning as such a system makes the air very dry. Besides this, because of the double, isolating walls, in winter temperatures in Villa Vistasmar rarely drop below 17 degrees and in summer these will almost never exceed 26 degrees. We have also installed central heating throughout the villa. Our experience however is that we never had to use it.
We'd like to offer you and guests who will stay the week(s) after you an unforgettable stay. So please note that Villa Vistasmar is a non-smoking area and smoking is only allowed outside the Villa.
The main kitchen contains a dishwasher, freezer, fridge, coffee machine, grill, hob, microwave, oven, blender, kettle and a toaster. The studio's kitchen contains the same, except for a grill & oven. Please make sure that these devices are empty and clean when you check out. Please note that it is very important not to leave any food and leftovers in the villa.
Villa Vistasmar has a good working wifi-connection. However, when all of the guests are using a lot of bandwidth at the same time, the transfer of data may slow down.
We provide three towels per person. A beach towel, a bath towel and a small sized towel. In the fourth bathroom we have installed a washing machine. In case stains have come all over your favourite garment or you ran out of towels, please feel free to use the washing machine.
The garage is used for storage of the garden furniture, the table tennis table, tools etc. You can park two cars on the path that leads to the garage. In front of Villa Vistasmar there is room to park at least another six cars.
You can reach the communal pool and tennis court by strolling down five minutes. Keys to open are stored in the Villa. The communal pool opens from july till september, the tennis court opens all year round. Los Moriscos golf is only a ten minutes drive away. Within 35 minutes you will find another four 18-holes golf courses.
Every week our pool man stops by the Villa to check the levels and to clean the pool floor.
Villa Vistasmar has various areas where flowers and plants are reaching out for some shade after another sunny day. Please feel free to water these from time to time!
Enjoy your stay!

Council looks to resolve performing arts centre parking woes
Ballarat council is trying to resolve car parking problems around the Wendouree Performing Arts Centre.
Nearby shops say they are losing business when events are on because customers cannot access parking.
Mayor David Vendy says meetings have already been held with the nearby schools about the issue and a meeting with the businesses will be held next week.
"The state school I think will open up their area for parking as well, probably make some money out of it with people being able to park there for $1 a car, or something, which will be good for the school, but clearly those 52 parks in front of those shops have to be well signposted so people know it's one hour parking," he said.

BMC Bolsters Middleware Portfolio with MQSoftware Buy
BMC Software acquires privately held MQSoftware, a leader in the middleware management and enterprise application transaction management markets.BMC Software announced it has acquired privately held MQSoftware, a leader in the middleware management and enterprise application transaction management markets. The acquisition, announced on Aug. 10, expands BMC's Business Service Management platform, which already provides customers with comprehensive views of their mainframe and distributed systems, to include their entire middleware infrastructure and high-value business transactions it supports, BMC officials said. BMC did not disclose financial details of the transaction.
Enterprises rely on middleware for communication between mainframe and distributed environments. However, IT departments typically monitor, diagnose and address middleware and business transaction issues in silos, BMC said. And middleware is the cornerstone for integrating disparate systems across the enterprise to deliver business services, the company noted.
"MQSoftware's two biggest sellers are Q Pasa, an application performance and availability monitoring product for WebSphereMQ, WebSphere, and Tibco middleware, and Q Nami, an application transaction and topology tracing product. MQSoftware has more than 300 customers for its software products and about twice that number for its training and services offering, with nearly 70% of those in the U.S. Q Pasa and Q Nami both support mainframe and distributed systems environments."In addition, Govekar said, "Gartner expects BMC to sell its products into MQSoftware's installed base and MQSoftware products into its own base." Moreover, integration between MQSoftware's products and BMC's Mainview console is already in place, since BMC is a reseller of Q Nami, he added.
