LCD Soundsystem is over, but James Murphy lives on. That's main takeaway of "Shut Up and Play the Hits," the energetic portrait of the group's big finish last year and a popular entry in Sundance's midnight selection this year. More than just a concert movie, "Shut Up and Play the Hits" explores the 41-year-old Murphy's decision to walk away from being the frontman for a vastly successful dance rock band at the height of its popularity.
Directors Will Lovelace and Dylan Southern combine footage of the spectacular final show, which took place at Madison Square Garden last April in front of thousands of rabid fans (including this writer), with footage shot the day after that captures Murphy's quiet, pensive experience the next day. Those into the band will obviously delight in the final show's lavish production values, but others may find Murphy's solemn morning-after experience far more interesting for the way it captures his attempt to grapple with the aging process as a constant work in progress. (In an interview with music journalist Chuck Klosterman that runs throughout the movie, Murphy says he wants the band to "leave a stain.")
The singer-songwriter, also a producer of the film and an actor in the Sundance premiere "The Comedy," sat down with Indiewire to elaborate on his decision to participate in the movie and what he might do next. The film's directors also weighed in.
Thousands of people attended the final show at MSG. They will be looking to find themselves in this footage. I know I did.
JAMES MURPHY: Well, you know, when it comes to Blu-ray, they can analyze it.
Who's the teary-eyed guy you keep finding in the crowd?
DYLAN SOUTHERN: Someone on YouTube said they went to high school with him.
The movie really taps into the spectacle of the MSG show, but you also played four additional finale concerts earlier that week at Terminal 5. James, how did that relatively smaller space compare to the last show?
JM: It's weird to think of Terminal 5 as a small space. It's bigger than any venue where I saw a show before being in LCD Soundsystem.
Then MSG must have really blown your mind.
JM: Well, no, we've gone on to play festivals and things like that. But as a kid, the biggest show I saw was at Webster Hall.
It's a strange meta experience to watch the concert through the lens of multiple cameras after viewing it from a fixed position. What was it like for you to relive it as a member of the audience?
JM: For starters, there was never a process of cutting down the show. There's a show that exists; that'll be released at some point. It was more like finding what songs worked to tell the story at the right times. They weren't necessarily the hits; they were just the right songs to move through the narrative. I've been involved in that from the beginning, because I did all the sound mixing. It's been a fun collaboration.
WILL LOVELACE: On paper, we had a list of which songs we'd like to use to tell a story.
JM: The last one we cut was "Daft Punk Is Playing at My House."
WL: It didn't quite fit.
In the movie, you tell Chuck Klosterman during an interview that you get sick of questions about whether or not Daft Punk actually played at your house.
JM: That's not one of your questions, right?
Hardly. But I wonder if you get sick of playing the same songs in the way you get sick of the same questions.
JM: Well, the questions are stupid; the songs aren't. Because that's a dumb question, right? You would never ask that question. But there are songs that I get sick of.
Does it feel like a new experience to watch yourself onstage?
JM: Oh my god, yeah. Don't forget: I don't see myself ever on stage, by the definition of eyeballs. I have no idea. And I have my eyes closed for most of the show anyway, which is just how I deal with stage fright. So it's a very wild and crazy experience to watch it. Luckily, because we've been a band long enough that there have been enough musical festivals in Europe where they send you the DVD and you watch the live mix, which sounds terrible, and you have to approve it before it airs on Belgian television or whatever. So I've seen myself a bit. It was actually really nice to be able to see it and when I'm really uncomfortable about it, I can say something, like "not this [footage]." We had a long conversation beforehand. It wasn't about getting rid of the bad shots of us. It was more like getting rid of the embarrassing rock star shots that looked too planned.
WL: The whole show was approached with pre-discussed details. We weren't into the way people shoot shows. We weren't talking about A camera, B camera, C camera…
Did you plan anything during the show knowing that it would wind up in the documentary?
JM: No, no. The really exciting part was that just putting the show on was so daunting that even though we talked so much before the show, when it came time for showtime, it took so much energy for us to do the four Terminal 5 shows and then put on this shitty high school rock opera, that I wouldn't even have had the brainpower to adjust to thinking about cameras. We just had the rule that the cameras couldn't be between two band members. That was all that really mattered.
DL: These weren't rock camera operators. These were DPs who don't shoot shows all the time, so it was really their experience of the show. Other directors might have backroom monitors and give commands.
JM: "Get on the piano!"
DL: I was operating a camera myself. It was kind of exciting to do it in that way. If we could've afforded it, we would've shot with 13 cameras for four hours on film.
WL: The people who we got were smart enough to find characters worth shooting.
DL: So that it could be as true to the show as possible. It's occasionally kind of dirty.
There's a whole other dimension to the movie that comes from the day after footage. Some of it is pretty candid stuff, like James crying as he stands in a room with his old equipment. You're usually not that forthcoming onstage. What made you comfortable enough to show that side on camera?
JM: When I do a good music interview with someone like Chuck, I'm as open as possible. Sometimes people think I'm kidding, but in fact I'm trying to be as open as possible. When I'm joking, people think I'm serious. But it's in the movie that I want to communicate. If these guys had just come and said, "We want to be in the room," it would've been a different story. But this film had gone through so many different plans and ideas so that by the time it came down to March or April, I was already so invested in it that I didn't feel like there were these people who were going to intrude on my life. I felt like we were making a thing. I had my role to do in that thing and they had their role. I didn't feel like something terrible would happen and it would appear on the internet. I knew that we were making a narrative.
WL: For us, we were always telling a story. It's a narrative film. There's an aspect to it that's a concert film, but those songs serve the story.
JM: I like my battle analogy.
WL: Yeah, that one's good.
JM: In a war film, there are battle scenes and then there's the story. If this is a war movie, the songs are the battle scenes. But it's not a documentary in the sense that it's not the history of the band. There's no going back in time. For us, it's a movie, and it almost doesn't matter that it's a real band. We wanted it just to be about this moment in time. The narrative structure did that. It would be weird to have no performance and weird to have talking heads as well.
When do you expect to release the full concert footage?
JM: We're talking about it. We want to do something that's exciting and experiential.
You were listed as the guest for a party at Sundance, which led some people to speculate that LCD Soundsystem might actually play a reunion show. That will never, ever happen, right?
JM: Yeah. I mean, I'm going to play records at that party. I'm a middle-aged guy with records. It's something I constantly do. It's my job.
You're showing a lot of creative range these days: You were singing, you DJ, you're a film producer and have written movie soundtracks. You collaborate with performance artists like Reggie Watts. You have a role in a narrative feature playing at Sundance called "The Comedy." Would you consider yourself a mixed-media artist rather than just a musician?
JM: The way the film was approached was a lot in the same way. Rather than saying, "Let's make a documentary or a concert film," it was like, "What's the best thing for me right now?" I'll do something that sounds interesting to me, so if somebody wants me to write a column for a magazine, I would do it if it seems interesting. Or a radio show. So talking about the movie, people asking if it's a concert film or a documentary, I'm like, "It's kind of neither. It's a story-driven movie about deciding not to do something anymore."
So that's why you didn't include anything about the ticketing issue with the MSG show that led you to book the additional performances at Terminal 5.
JM: That would be full-on documentary.
WL: There was some mention of it that got cut, wasn't there?
There is one brief moment where you look at the MSG sales and say, "Everybody's going to be there."
JM: That was a joke.
Do you think you managed to satisfy your fans by adding those shows?
JM: I did the right thing for myself. Other people might feel robbed that we stopped playing, or feel like we're assholes for playing MSG. But I did the best thing I could. If I was a kid, I feel like I would've been like, "That was cool."
What kind of release do you want the movie to have?
DL: We want people to see it in theaters.
JM: The detail in those crowd shots is just so good to see, because we watched it in an editing suite before, so we couldn't see the details on the small screen.
WL: It really is a communal experience and we'd like as many people to see that way as possible.

Upgrade your old jointer with a new spiral head
From power tools to computers, nothing irritates me more than saving up to buy a dream machine and then learning of a new technology breakthrough. Shortly after I bought my straight-knife 6" jointer, models started coming with spiral cutterheads that shear the stock for less tear-out on figured woods. Rather than invest in a new machine, I decided to try an aftermarket spiral cutterhead from Sunhill Machinery.
Unlike the spiral cutterheads that come on many 6" and 8" jointers these days (with dozens of square carbide cutters), the Sunhill spiral cutterhead uses flexible high-speed steel knives that conform to the spiral knife slots. This makes the cutterhead cut with an action more akin to the industrial cuttterhead that inspired spiral heads in consumer machines.
Before replacing my straight cutterhead—which has a fresh set of knives—I pulled out a piece of curly white oak and face-jointed it. Not surprisingly, the wild grain tore out badly. (That's why I typically machine this wood with a drum sander, removing a tedious 1⁄64 " at a time).
Next, I swapped out my old cutterhead for the new, about a 20-minute job. I did notice that the pulley on the Sunhill spiral cutterhead didn't align perfectly with my jointer's drive pulley, but it didn't affect the performance. Once again, I face-jointed some curly white oak and, although not completely tear-out-free, the little bit of tear-out that occurred was shallow enough to remove with a few passes on my drum sander. That's a huge improvement.
Replacing the three strip knives takes only 20 minutes, and they self-index into a groove in the cutterhead. I pulled the knives out and then replaced them in a random fashion, and the cut was every bit as smooth as the one before.
The Sunhill spiral cutterhead has economy on its side, too: just $19 for a set of no-fuss disposable knives, and the cutterhead itself costs about half of what square-insert spiral cutterheads cost. Sunhill also sells replacement spiral cutterheads for 8" jointers, as well as 15" and 20" planers.

Mother Quotes
"A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine desert us; when trouble thickens around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts. "

The author is a Forbes contributor. The opinions expressed are those of the writer.
How exactly will I be taxed on dividends? What are my rights if my company relocates? What courses are available at my local university? If I fail my driving test, how long will I have to wait before I can take it again? Is my boss allowed to fire me while I'm on maternity leave?
It should be easy to find answers to these kinds of questions, but we all know that government services can be unnecessarily complicated. The new Gov.UK gets it. Starting today, it's the place to go for UK government services and information. Gov.UK is replacing two existing websites, Directgov (for public services information) and Business Link (for business resources).
Gov.UK presents government information in a straightforward and engaging way. And citizens can take action, right from the website: Take your official driving theory test. Search for a job. Apply for a passport. Check your employment status.
The beta version of Gov.UK has been live for most of the year, so the team has had time to test and work out the kinks. According to executive director of Government Digital Services Mike Bracken, they performed online surveys, as well as face-to-face and remote user testing. They studied the way businesses use the site and tested content on people of different ages, and people with different disabilities and first languages. Finding out firsthand what people want in their government's website resulted in a simpler and friendlier user experience.
It was an improvement from the start, since it streamlines two separate, clunkier websites and eliminates confusion between them. But Gov.UK is more than just an improvement—it sets a new standard for government websites around the world.
For context, here's what Directgov looked like:
Here's Business Link:
And here's the new Gov.UK:
The content is clear, smart, and intuitive. Whether you're looking for information on passports, legal processes, owning a business, voting, paying taxes, or renting a home, you can easily find and understand what you need—within seconds, even. Search the website the old-fashioned way, read step-by-step guides, browse popular topics, or start with a category and drill down from there. The content flows naturally throughout the website and focuses on the readers' needs. There's a friendly video tour front and center, and it's almost impossible to miss the most important information, like the "When do the clocks change?" block on the homepage.

- - Opinions on Omolene 100?
Opinions on Omolene 100? CoCo was on Omolene 200 at the race stables. I don't really want her on such a high energy food. What are your thoughts on Omolene 100? There's very little pasture but she is on good quality hay. |
I have been feeding Purina feeds since 1999 and personally I dont like the sweet feeds. It's just too much energy and so sticky in the winter ! I feed Purina Strategy as it has ALL the minerals in it as well as it's a pelleted, alfalfa based feed. It's complete and can be fed to horses at any age. Its highly digestable & palatable and does not make your horse hot. It also has the most calories per pound of any feed so you feed less than you would normally so the end result is a healthier, happier horse for less money per pound to feed. :) |
The endurance barn i work at feeds omolene and for endurance horses the more fat the better so yes it is a higher energy feed. So if you arent doing performance horse training then i would switch her to soemthing else, like safe choice, or more of a pleasure horse grain (again im not sure what you do with your girl) |
No way I would feed that! The ingredients list on the purina site is "mixed grains"... that was an immediate turn off. I like to know exactly what my horse is eating. Plus, it seems to have too much sugar, I've heard it lights some horses up like a christmas tree. I much prefer feeds that give energy without making the horses hot. |
I wanted to feed Strategy but all the places were out of it within reasonable driving distance for me. I guess cause of the coupons and such everyone stocked up. I need a feed that will help put weight on CoCo. She isn't being worked except lunging but she is also very skinny. My other choice was Dumor feeds and I'm not a fan. |
i feed omelene to my 3yo & i like it a lot. i used to feed a pelleted feed, but she choked on it twice so i switched to omelene & have had no issues =] |

Nalini Singh has traveled as far afield as the deserts of China and the temples of Japan. However, it is the journey of the imagination that fascinates her the most. Currently writing the next book in her bestselling Psy/Changeling series—about a psychic race with no emotions, and the sensual changelings who challenge their perfect Silence—she can be found via her website: www.nalinisingh.com/ or hanging out at her blog: www.nalinisingh.blogspot.com.
Her newest release is CARESSED BY ICE, which comes out today!
Y'all give a big playground welcome to Nalini Singh!
Loving to Read
I love to read. I truly, deeply love to read. In the movie Sabrina, the heroine says that her father became a chauffeur so he'd have more time to read. That's one of my favorite lines in the movie—because I understand that kind of love for the written word. As a child living on a tiny dot of an island in the Pacific, one of the highlights of my week was the book bus. I used to eye the adult side of that bus covetously—I really wanted to read those books with no pictures in them!These days, I have lots and lots and lots of books. There are books on the shelves, stacked on the floor, propped on my desk, tucked in my bag...so many books everywhere. I love the feeling of just looking around, figuring out what I'm in the mood for and diving in. I always feel like a child let loose in a candy store.
I've also noticed that I'm reading a whole bunch of debut authors. Some of this is because people I know have had their first books come out, but a lot of it is curiosity. As a reader, I want to try things, want to make up my own mind—especially about books that get a lot of buzz (negative or positive).
Which recent books proved to be delicious treats for you? Are there any that you're anticipating with bated breath? And just because I'm the curious type, how many books do you think you read over the course of a year?
Everyone who comments goes into a draw to win a signed copy of either Slave to Sensation or Visions of Heat, the first books in my Psy/Changeling series. (If you'd prefer one of my Sil Desire books, let me know.) And talking about prizes, I have this competition running on my blog where you can go into the draw to win a $50 Amazon voucher. It closes Sunday, so enter before it's too late.P.S. from PC: Sometime on Monday, the Writing Playground blog passed the 60k mark for blog visitors! SQUEEEE!!!

National Aeronautics and Space Administration Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center Houston, Texas 77058 |
Biographical Data |
PERSONAL DATA: Born February 19, 1956, in Cleveland, Ohio. Died March 15, 2008 at the age of 52. He is survived by his wife, JoAnn, their three children, his mother Mary Ruth Low, his brothers and sisters and their families. His father, Mr. George M. Low, is deceased.
EDUCATION: Graduated from Langley High School, McLean, Virginia, in 1974; received a bachelor of science degree in physics-engineering from Washington and Lee University in 1978, a bachelor of science degree in mechanical engineering from Cornell University in 1980, and a master of science degree in aeronautics and astronautics from Stanford University in 1983.
ORGANIZATIONS: Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics; member of Omicron Delta Kappa.
SPECIAL HONORS: Recipient of three NASA Space Flight Medals, the NASA Exceptional Service Medal, the NASA Outstanding Leadership Medal, and an honorary doctor of engineering degree from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
EXPERIENCE: Low worked in the Spacecraft Systems Engineering Section of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, from March 1980 until June 1984. During that time he was involved in the preliminary planning of several planetary missions, an Autonomous Spacecraft Maintenance study, and the systems engineering design of the Galileo spacecraft. Following a one-year leave to pursue graduate studies, Low returned to JPL where he was the principal spacecraft systems engineer for the Mars Geoscience/Climatology Observer Project.
NASA EXPERIENCE: Selected by NASA in May 1984, Low became an astronaut in June 1985. He has held a variety of technical assignments including work on the Remote Manipulator System (RMS), on Extravehicular Activity (EVA), and Orbiter test and checkout tasks at the Kennedy Space Center. Low served as a spacecraft communicator (CAPCOM) in the Mission Control Center during STS Missions 26, 27, 29 and 30. He also served as the lead astronaut in the Man-Systems Group and Station Operations Group of the Space Station Support Office. In 1993 Low was a member of the Russian Integration Team which worked for several months in Crystal City, Virginia to define the changes from the old Space Station Freedom to the new International Space Station. In 1994 he served as the Manager of the EVA Integration and Operations Office, and in 1995 he served as an assistant in the NASA Legislative Affairs Office where he worked with Members of Congress and their staffs to keep them informed about NASA's aeronautics and space programs.
A veteran of three space flights, Low has logged over 714 hours in space, including nearly 6 hours on a spacewalk. He was a mission specialist on STS-32 (January 9-20, 1990), was the flight engineer on STS-43 (August 2-11, 1991), and was the payload commander on STS-57 (June 21 to July 1, 1993).
David Low left NASA in February 1996 to pursue an aerospace career with Orbital Sciences Corporation's Launch Systems Group in Dulles, Virginia.
SPACE FLIGHT EXPERIENCE: STS-32 Columbia, launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, on January 9, 1990. During the ten-day mission the crew successfully deployed the Syncom IV-F5 communications satellite, and retrieved the 21,400-pound Long Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF) using the RMS. They also operated a variety of middeck materials and life sciences experiments, as well as the IMAX camera. Following 173 orbits of the Earth in 261 hours, Columbia returned to a night landing at Edwards Air Force Base, California, on January 20, 1990.
STS-43 Atlantis launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, on August 2, 1991. During the nine-day flight, the crew deployed the fifth Tracking and Data Relay Satellite (TDRS-E), in addition to conducting 32 physical, material, and life science experiments, mostly relating to the Extended Duration Orbiter and Space Station Freedom. After 142 orbits of the Earth in 213 hours, the mission concluded with a landing on Runway 15 at the Kennedy Space Center on August 11, 1991.
STS-57 Endeavour launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, on June 21, 1993. The primary objective of this flight was the retrieval of the European Retrievable Carrier satellite (EURECA) using the RMS. Additionally, this mission featured the first flight of Spacehab, a commercially-provided middeck augmentation module for the conduct of microgravity experiments. Spacehab carried 22 individual flight experiments in materials and life sciences research. During the mission David Low and Jeff Wisoff, conducted a 5-hour, 50-minute spacewalk during which the EURECA communications antennas were manually positioned for latching, and various extravehicular activity (EVA) tools and techniques were evaluated for use on future missions. Endeavour landed at the Kennedy Space Center on July 1, 1993, after 155 orbits of the Earth in 239 hours.

Zoe Saldana Can't Wait for Avatar 2
The astoundingly beautiful star is praying that James Cameron will hit her up soon!
-Carolyn French
Zoe Salanda, who portrayed Na'vi alien Neytiri in James Cameron's hit film Avatar, is giddy at the thought of slipping back into her feisty yet totally loveable character.
E! News caught up with the actress at the Metropolitan Museum of Art's annual Costume Institute Gala benefit Monday evening, and when asked if she was planning to participate in the sequel she practically squealed "Yes!"
Read James Cameron's Outer-Space Adventure
So when exactly is Saldana going to sign on the dotted line? "As soon as the boss calls me, I'll be there," she beamed.
Right on! We couldn't imagine Avatar without our favorite warrior princess. (E! Online)

I would say maybe you can track him down at the MHC this year if he's there, he was last year. Email him and let him know you are going to be looking your your stuff from him. It's what I had to do at Transworld.

I would say maybe you can track him down at the MHC this year if he's there, he was last year. Email him and let him know you are going to be looking your your stuff from him. It's what I had to do at Transworld.
Over two months now. I have been posting on their facebook asking when I will receive it, no reply for quit a while. Wont be at MCH. Guess I will keep posting on facebook and here until he comes through. However if I were anyone else I WOULD NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. They have some real issues and since they seem unable or unwilling to fix them I am guessing that they will get nothing but worse.
I was looking to get a product or two from them, but this incident has topped the cake for me with them. I will be buying something else. I really wanted to try some of their stuff too :(
Best shot is to track him down at a show. That way he can't doge so easy.

We have been using several of their products for the past 3-4 years, including a custom prop. Works great and never had any real issues with Mike and his crew. Only bummer part is the how often I have to refill my co2 tank for the fog blast mask, but that's not their fault, my actors love the effect just too much!
Read, Rate and Review on HauntersDigest.com... Shot in the Dark
I'd love to see a video of this fog mask in action!
I'm 90% positive these are the two owners of Shot in the Dark. Perhaps reaching them through Facebook may help resolve some of your product issues?
I received an email over a month ago now saying that they were going to replace last years crap and send me a free gift to make up for it. Im thinking GREAT at least I will have something I can use this year. Unfortunately I AM STILL WAITING?!!! Why take the time to send an email then not follow through? Its not rocket science... you replace something that should have never made it out of your workshop in the first place. Quit the crap... just get it DONE!
I hear exactly what you are saying. I went through it last year from June till the Transworld show in March. I couldn't figure it out myself. The amount of promises that were made and never followed through on. I got the same promise of getting the spark knives set and a free gift. Although I was happy to get the spark gloves. Never did get the free item.
But once again it came down to chasing him down at a show. As for facebook, we had some negative comments about their lack of shipping and broken promises. But those comments have all been discarded. I really wish Facebook had a dislike button as well as a like button.
Though Mike has to realize how bad his reputation in the industry is. And either he doesn't care, or he thinks his product is so great that people will come anyhow.
Just my 2 cents

The Mumbai Indians will want to wind up the league phase the way they began IPL 2012; in the opening fixture of DLF IPL 2012, MI caused an upset of sorts when they defeated the Chennai Super Kings in their own backyard. They will hope to get the better of the Rajasthan Royals in their "fortress" in the final league fixture of the season.
Harbhajan Singh's team should consider themselves fortunate to have made it to the playoffs; his team has nine wins so far; in six of those nine wins, they barely made it past the finish line. In their most recent outing against the Kolkata Knight Riders, they faltered in their chase of 141, and fell short by 32 runs.
For the Rajasthan Royals (who lost their previous match against Kings XI Punjab), this contest offers a chance to finish the season on a high. Rahul Dravid's team may lack the star appeal some of the other teams have, but they've certainly performed way above expectations and have made optimum use of the resources at their disposal.
Sunday, May 20, 2012, 08:00 p.m.
Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur
The Protagonists
Keep an eye on Ajinkya Rahane and Rahul Dravid – as individuals and as a pair – in the Rajasthan Royals line-up. The most consistent opening pair in IPL 2012, both players have gone off the boil in the last few matches. They will want to come good in this final fixture and sign off on a good note.
Keep an eye on Shane Watson too. The Australian, who has impressive all-round numbers while playing at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, will want to finish the season on a high too.
Sachin Tendulkar has scored only one half-century this season; and given the importance of this match and the matches to come, expect him to produce something spectacular. The Little Master and Rohit Sharma are among the key performers in the Mumbai Indians top order. Meanwhile, Ambati Rayudu and Kieron Pollard will be key players in the closing stages of the innings.
Among the bowlers, keep an eye on the two speedsters – Lasith Malinga and Shaun Tait. The former – the leading wicket-taker in the IPL – continues to torment batsmen with his sling-arm action and his toe-crushers, while the latter can bowl quick and run through sides singlehandedly.
Previous Meetings
Where historical meetings between the Rajasthan Royals and the Mumbai Indians are concerned, there's very little that separates the two teams; both have won four matches apiece, while the second meeting in the 2009 season (at Durban) had to be abandoned because of poor weather.
In their most recent encounter, at the Wankhede Stadium earlier this season, the hosts – powered by Kieron Pollard's maiden IPL half-century – posted 197 for six and then bowled out RR for 170, to win by 27 runs.
The Mumbai Indians have the lowest scoring rate of the nine competing teams in IPL 2012 – 7.34.
The Mumbai Indians have conceded the most runs through wides in IPL 2012 – 77.
The Rajasthan Royals have posted the most 50-plus partnerships this season – 15.
What next?
This match will be the end of the road for the Rajasthan Royals as far as IPL 2012 is concerned, while the Mumbai Indians will be seen in action in the playoffs.

After re-creating itself in three different markets in as many years, software startup Swipely finally found its feet and began to thrive in 2012, and founder and CEO Angus Davis shifted into high gear to find the people who could make his "lightning in a bottle" product even better.
"I grew up in Bristol and consider myself a born-and-raised Rhode Islander, but I spent over 10 years in Silicon Valley, at a little company called Netscape," said Davis. "When we started the company here in Providence, that was the only context I had for how a company should operate, so we think of ourselves as trying to have a slice of Silicon Valley here in Providence."
One aspect of the Silicon Valley mindset that Davis and company have embraced is fast growth. According to an Inc. magazine report, for the 18-month period from December 2011 to June 2013, Swipely grew from 27 employees to 72, and Davis told Providence Business News he expects to close out the year with about 80. The company's pivot away from a social media approach to product reviews to customer-loyalty programs to its current – and successful – iteration as a merchant payment system and customer profile information provider has garnered the company significant funding, including a $12 million series B funding round in May.
The strong growth earned the company a spot at No. 3 on Inc. magazine's 2013 "Hire Power" ranking of the top seven job creators in Rhode Island. Including Swipely, three of those seven are technology companies, mirroring a national trend that placed both software and IT services among the five top-hiring industries in the United States.
"To find and recruit really talented people to join our team … that's a big challenge," said Davis. "We have to adapt the business without losing sight of the things that make Swipely a great place to come into work every day."
So far, the company seems able to stay on that track. Daily free lunches, a relaxed dress code and open-environment office space helped win the company a place among PBN's "2013 Best Places To Work," but staying on the list requires constant vigilance.

(NEW YORK EMBARGO May 17, 2014) Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai will present several landmark studies at the 2014 American Urological Association (AUA) annual meeting May 17-19, 2014 in Orlando, FL, including data on an immune response in prostate cancer tumors, effects of paternal age on stimulated insemination live birth rates, issues of sexual function after cystectomy and a comparison of modalities for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
Meeting attendees will be able to view a live 3-dimensional video feed of a robotic prostatectomy performed by Ashutosh K. Tewari, MBBS, MCh, Chairman, Milton and Carroll Petrie Department of Urology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, who has performed over 5,500 robotic prostatectomies and is one of the world's foremost researchers and surgeons in this field.
Highlights of Mount Sinai research at AUA:
Sipuleucel-T is an autologous cellular immunotherapy indicated for the treatment of asymptomatic metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer by inducing an immune response against prostatic acid phosphotase (PAP). Researchers including Simon J Hall, MD, Director of the Barbara and Maurice Deane Prostate Health and Research Center, Associate Professor, Urology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, sought to determine whether this treatment induced an immune response to other potential prostate cancer antigens such as PSA after treatment with sipuleucel-T and if this response was associated with enhanced overall survival. A total of 512 men were evaluated with 341 receiving sipuleucel-T and 171 in the control group. A subset of men treated with sipuleucel-T generated immune responses to several known prostate cancer antigens including PSA, PSMA and human kallikrien-2. In the case of PSA, a significant improvement in survival was noted for patients who generated antibodies against this antigen.
"The study data demonstrated that a subset of patients (30%) vaccinated against one specific antigen, PAP, develop immune response to other antigens; this antigen spread is associated with a profound enhancement of survival. This study thus demonstrates some of the complexities of immunotherapy in patients and serves as a backdrop for further studies to enhance anticancer immune therapies," said Dr. Hall.
This multi-center study included collaboration with Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD; Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA; University of California, San Francisco, CA; Indiana University Simon Cancer Center, Indianapolis, IN; and University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle, WA. Grant funding for this study was provided by the Dendreon Corporation, Seattle, WA.
It is well established that increasing maternal age leads to a higher risk of infertility, miscarriage, and chromosomal defects in offspring. A research team at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, led by Natan Bar-Chama, MD, Associate Professor, Urology and Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Science, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai sought to answer whether paternal age had a negative impact on the ability to reproduce and the rate of successful outcomes using stimulated intrauterine insemination (IUI). In the largest study of its kind, researchers retrospectively reviewed 18,806 IUI cycles from a single center from 2003-2011. Success rates were defined as live births rates. The mean maternal age in the cohort was 36.4 years and the mean paternal age was 38.4 years. The cumulative live birth rate was 23%. After adjusting for standard predictors of life birth, researchers observed a 20% decline in live births per decade of advanced paternal age.
"This study the largest of its kind to date, clearly demonstrates that advanced paternal age negatively impacts fertility outcomes in couples undergoing the most common form of assisted reproductive technologies; stimulated intrauterine inseminations," said Dr. Bar-Chama. "This effect is important for us to discuss with the couples we care for and will enable us to better counsel patients undergoing this reproductive treatment."
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a non-cancerous increase in the size and number of cells that make up the prostate. There are several surgical modalities used at Mount Sinai in the treatment of BPH. Michael A. Palese, MD, Director of Minimally Invasive Surgery, Associate Professor, Urology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, will lead one of the first comparisons of all four minimally invasive modalities for the treatment of BPH at a single institution.
"Our findings will help us select the optimal treatment for each patient. This research will provide a standard of care for the surgical treatment of BPH," said Dr. Palese.
Understanding the unmet needs of cancer patients and survivors is a critical step in providing high quality care. Researchers at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai are conducting a study to examine the informational, psychosocial, and supportive care needs of patients with bladder cancer who have undergone cystectomy and urinary diversion across the disease trajectory (i.e. at time of diagnosis, following cystectomy, and during survivorship). Under the direction of Nihal Mohamed, PhD, Assistant Professor, Department of Urology, this research will provide vital insight to the patient's full spectrum of needs and information that will guide further enhancements of supportive care resources available for bladder cancer patients and survivors.
"Understanding the needs of our patients is pivotal to improving health outcomes and achieving patients' and families' satisfaction," said Mohamed.
A second study led by Nihal Mohamed, PhD, evaluates the impact of radical cystectomy on patients' quality of life, with a special focus on the sexual and urinary function. This research will help clinicians to better understand the emotional and psychosomatic aspects that influence patients' quality of life following radical cystectomy.
