Since the bliss of nothingness, that sets in when connecting with the empty breath, is a state of not-knowing, it is not possible to connect with it when in the consciousness of being someone definitive. Thus the connection must be established before the brain based on signals, it claims to receive from the sensory system, renders a world defined by time and space, as if it is you who have a conscience experience of it therefore are someone in it.
Science states, the world we seem to feel and see consist of 99.9999999 percent empty space. And the rest – despite it also is empty space and just like a dream has nothing substantial in it – is what we perceive to be elements of matter making up a world defined by time and space.
Thus appearing to be someone definitive is make-believe, no matter what and where you appear to be.
On account of this taking one second for the brain to accomplish, there are countless of seconds where a connection with the empty breath can be established (see how in the articles Take-offs to ´the empty breath´, and How to ignite a take-off to ´the empty breath´ ), because in those seconds unprocessed by the brain, there is nothing to define you and therefore no consciousness of being someone definitive, so there is no difference between the nothingness of you and that of the the empty breath.

Dale Watson was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and grew up in poverty outside of Pasadena, Texas. Watson began writing his own songs at age 12, making his first recording two years later. Soon after, Watson became an emancipated minor; by day he went to school and by night he played local Houston clubs and honky-tonks with his brother Jim in an aggregation called the Classic Country Band. In 1988, he moved to Los Angeles, California, and joined the house band at an alt-country venue. In 1992, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee, writing songs for a publishing company. His career as a solo artist began when Watson relocated to Austin, Texas, where he formed a backing band called the Lone Stars and recorded his first album in 1995. Watson went on hiatus after his girlfriend died in 2004, relocating again to be near his daughters in Baltimore, Maryland. Watson returned to Austin in 2006 and resumed playing regular gigs. His 25th and most recent album, Under the Influence, was released on September 30, 2016.
Dale Watson brands his music Ameripolitan, and tonight at Hill Country Barbecue Market, this music spoke for itself. Perhaps Ameripolitan is more of a statement than a genre, as the music sounded very much like outlaw country music, stripping away the Nashville glitz and honing onto roots country blues. With integrity uncompromised, Watson played authentic country music, even throwing subtle jabs at contemporary country stars who are not so country. While his baritone resonated well and the Lone Stars (Don Pawlak on pedal steel, Chris Crepps on upright bass, and Mike Bernal on drums) backed him finely, his repertoire consisted of typical country fare: humorous plays on words; name drops on the outlaw pioneers; songs about drinking alcohol. For much of the show, Watson fielded requests from the fans and had the audience singing along to "I Lie When I Drink" and other signature songs. It was an enjoyable performance, but not a country music shape shifter.

Credit report and credit score
Credit reports
and credit scores are generated by three credit reporting agencies,
Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. Consumer credit reports contain
personal and financial information about you, including your name,
your past and present addresses, phone number, Social Security
number, date of birth, current and past employers, and companies who
have issued you credit (including credit cards, charge cards, car
loans, mortgages, student loans, home equity loans, etc.), including
details about your credit payment history. Credit reporting agencies
also compile information derived from state and county court
records. Public record information includes foreclosures,
bankruptcies, wage attachments, law suits, liens, and judgments.
Information on overdue debt from collection agencies is also
contained on credit reports.
Each credit agency creates a separate credit report and credit score for Americans. However, most of the information on each report will be identical or extremely similar. The goal of the credit agencies is to supply creditors with timely and reliable financial information about credit consumers. The credit reporting agencies do not determine whether an individual qualifies for credit or not. Credit reporting agencies simply collect information on individual's credit history and behaviors and then deliver that information (for a fee) to creditors and lenders.
What does a credit score mean?
Using a complex formula based on many factors, a credit score is a
three digit number symbolizing an individual's creditworthiness. The
score is determined by each of the three major credit rating
agencies. Your credit score is dependent on factors like your
outstanding total debt, bill paying history, as well as the number
and types of credit accounts you have and how long you have had
them. A credit score is a statistical calculation that reflects a
consumer's credit worthiness. In short, the credit score estimates
the likely a consumer will pay his or her debt obligations. Credit
scores can range between 300 and 850.
A credit score in the 300s or 400s indicates a high credit risk, a score in the mid-600s to low 700s indicates a good credit risk, and a credit score in the mid- to high 700s or in the 800s is regarded as an excellent credit risk. People with high credit scores get the lowest interest rates for a mortgage, loan, or credit card.
To qualify for a mortgage at a good interest rate and with advantageous terms, you'll want your credit score to be no less than 620.
The average credit score in America is approximately 678.
It's important to remember that different lenders and creditors give different weight to these scores.
What is the credit score range?
Here's how
credit scores are generally perceived by lenders and creditors:
Excellent Over 750
Very Good 720 to 750
Acceptable (Average) 660 to 719
Uncertain 620 to 659
High risk Less than 619
Having a good to excellent credit score means lower interest rates and better terms for mortgages, installment loans, and credit cards.
How is my credit score calculated?
Your payment history is approximately 35% of a FICO credit score.
This is the most important category to fix your credit score. Pay your monthly bills by the due date. Do not miss a payment or be
late. If you have missed payments, get current with the lender and
remain current. Your score increases when you pay your bills on
Balance due on credit accounts determines about 30% of a FICO credit score. This category is a relationship between how much is owed and how much can be borrowed from the lender. For example, let's say you have a credit card with a $5,000 limit and there is $4,999 owed to that credit card company. Not too much leeway. If all of your accounts are "maxed out", your credit score will be negatively affected. Try to keep balances as low as possible. High outstanding credit card debt will adversely affect your credit score. Pay down and maintain credit balances at 50% or less of the available credit limit. Call your credit card companies and ask them for an increase on the credit line. Your credit balances will appear to be lower due to the higher credit limit. Paying off debt can actually hurt your credit score. Reduce balances on all accounts before paying off debt.
Credit history accounts for approximately 15% of your credit score. Length does matter. Having a long credit history benefits the credit score. So do not close unused credit cards or accounts. Old credit accounts, even those you have not used for some time can actually help your score.
Credit combination can potentially determine 10% of a FICO score. Do you only have credit cards? Or do you have a school loan, car payment, and possibly an installment loan. The scoring system takes into consideration the total number of accounts you have.
Be careful in adding any new credit because it can determine 10% of a FICO score. Adding new credit accounts in a short time period represents greater risk in the scoring model, especially for people who do not have a lengthy credit history.
How many recent inquiries you have also falls in this category. An inquiry takes place when a lender requests your credit report or score from a credit bureau. Credit inquiries will remain on your credit report for two years, although the scoring equation only uses inquiries from the last 12 months. Not all inquiries are considered a credit risk. Application a job, auto pre-approval or rental application does not adversely affect your credit score. Installment loans or credit card inquiries will impact the score.
Steps to fixing credit fast
Contact your creditors who have late payments your credit report and
politely ask them to remove the late payments. Some creditors may
actually comply because they want your business.
Pay off any collection accounts and judgments (if any). Failing to pay creditors seriously impacts your credit score. Pay off or catch up on all delinquent debt.
Seek out a consolidation loan as a last resort. Again, pay off past due debt first.

Q&A: Steven Kostanski gets serious about "MANBORG"Fearful Features,Movies/TV,News Dave Pace
We've been talking about the genius that is MANBORG for a few years now, ever since the premiere at Toronto After Dark 2011). We even wrote a raving review of it as it hit theaters late last year alongside the brilliant BIO-COP trailer, also composed by Kostanski. As the film is released in the US on DVD and VOD formats, we thought we'd finally talk to one of the minds behind the MANBORG – Steven Kostanski – and get him to open up about the film and his influences.Read more »

It's Friday night, 1988 and you are at the video store with your family. You browse the aisles and you can't help but be drawn to the lurid images on the VHS box covers in the section your parents won't let you rent from. As they wander the New Releases, you pretend to be going to the Family section but when the coast is clear, you cut into a dash to Horror. Blood. Skulls. Mutated toxic maniacs. Chainsaw-wielding psychopaths. Monsters and mayhem. You thrill to the covers and wonder what exactly is lurking in these strange films – films so shocking your parents would probably throw a fit if they saw you looking at them, which only makes the experience more thrilling. Since you can't see the movies, you spend the whole car ride home making them up in your imagination.Read more »
Q&A: Indie splatterfest "MULCH" is making compostColumns,Fearful Features,Movies/TV,News Dave Pace
There is a charm to the cheap and dirty gorefest. Those who turn their noses up at it and pretend to only have the most refined tastes in their monster movie stabfests are kind of crashing bores. For the rest of us, a good cheesy piece of high camp loaded with grotesque practical FX and mom's minivan hits the spot. Done well, a movie like this takes us back to our glory days of a movie night with good friends and enough karo syrup to choke a Labrador. You can feel the fun the actors are having on screen, their joy is infectious and when the brains start to spray all over the walls in pneumatic jets, everything feels right with the world.Read more »

Fruit is a tricky ingredient for a cook because unless you are making dessert, there typically isn't much cooking involved. I have never claimed to be a baker and repeatedly try to foist the title upon my husband, "Your mom was a fabulous baker, you should be too!" He's game, usually, which just shows his generosity of spirit.
It's strawberry season, and a few years ago our new community garden plot came with an edging of those tri-foliate friends. Because they were a surprise and because I can be a lazy gardener, they languished without much care. Despite this, some red fruits managed to escape the onslaught of unchecked slugs and snails. This year, inspired by a friends Instagrammed bounty, and my "old hat" knowledge that even homegrown strawberries can be watery and flavorless, I wanted to enjoy the season with or without meager homegrown findings in hand.
So, this recipe works no matter the strawberry – transcendent and reminiscent of childhood hoarding… or beautiful only on the outside.
- 1 lb strawberries – homegrown, farmers market, or store bought
- 1/4 c sour cream
- 1 T pomegranate molasses
- 1 T honey
- 2 oz gran marnier (optional)
- 1/4 c chopped mint, and a few leaves set aside for garnish
- 4 or more ice cubes
Cut off green tops of strawberries. Whirl all ingredients in the blender, garnish with mint sprig.

While Tracey Thorn is best known for her work with Everything But The Girl and Massive Attack (their hit "Protection" features her rich, resonant voice), Tinsel and Lights, her fourth solo album, shows how truly talented she is. The Christmas album features darkly sweet covers of songs by Dolly Parton, White Stripes, Aimee Mann and Joni Mitchell (which is fitting, because as a whole the album is reminiscent of the bittersweet beauty of Mitchell's Blue). Through the songs, Thorn explores the emotional highs and lows of the holidays, with sadness and glee thriving side by side on the album. Standouts include a melancholic, honeyed cover of Low's "Taking Down the Tree," featuring Scritti Politti's Green Gartside, "Joy," and the title track, "Tinsel and Lights."

Pupils at Brownlow College have made an adoption with a difference - by adopting a street.
The Humanist Group at the school hold weekly meetings to facilitate pupils who want to help out in a proactive way to enhance the school community.
Their objective was to target one small area that they could focus on and that would benefit the community and self-esteem of the participants.
They got in touch with Environmental Health Officer for the Borough Pamela Hanna and found out about the Adopt a Street project.
A school spokesperson said: "We are excited to adopt Tullygally Road and make a positive difference.
"Once we have established a working group we will focus on a beauty spot in the area and try to instil collective responsibility, care for the environment and nature. Our motto is 'Lead by Example'."
The Adopt-a-Street scheme was launched in November 2013 to tackle the ongoing problem of litter throughout the Borough.
The aim of the scheme is to get local residents, schools and businesses more involved in keeping an area they have 'adopted' clean and tidy and free from litter. All those taking part help make a difference to the local area and encourage a feeling of community spirit.
Equipment is provided and ongoing support is given to those who register for the scheme.
The scheme has been a great success to date, with new areas being adopted each week and almost 2,000 bags of rubbish collected. The scheme was also shortlisted in the prestigious LGC Awards under the Environmental category in 2015.

I'm hoping to run an evening ideas workshop in Hub Westminister in early to Mid november to fully map out the needs in documentation for open source appropriate technology.
I am looking for people who produce technology, people who produce the documentation, people that train others how to use it. People who work inside appropriate technology and development and people who work outside it. So let me know if you are interested or know anyone who would be interested in joining.
Here is the simple needs map I have come up with an I am hoping to build upon in the workshop.
It identifies what we would do with all the resources in the world and what to do when we don't have that in the three areas of operation of a piece of open source appropriate technology. Hopefully when this is finished people will be able to map out the areas relevant to their operation and minimum standards for each area can be defined.

The Unix Time StampUnix time corresponds to the number of seconds that have elapsed since Midnight Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), January 1, 1970 also referred as Unix Epoch. Leap seconds are not considered
Thus, it tracks time as a running total of seconds since the Unix Epoch.
Computer systems can sort time as integer values more efficiently compared to numbers in a date format like 01/03/2010.
However, the 32-bit overflow will be a problem on January 19, 2038. Before that date the time stamp has to be modified or computers should run with a 64-bit system.

It's 2006, and the proud-to-be-underground, punch-line-flipping, middle-finger to the mainstream routine is staler than ever before. How ironic it is, that the same cats who've ostracized all things-cliched, from bling-rap to thug music and all in-between, have not only become the butt of their own joke, but also the most recognizable and predictable of any such group. Anyone sick of 50 minutes of "sicker-than" raps is probably on the same page, and if you're one of those people who can't quite stand an entire LP's worth of similes, you know and comprehend all the types of frustration at hand.
Fortunately enough with Halifax emcee SJ the Wordburglar, the approach is at least lighthearted enough to avoid stagnancy. He's a joker at heart, can flip a decent punch line when he feels like it, and is backed by a sizeable load of good beats from a talented group of producers. Still, it would not be so unfair to label SJ a one-trick pony, as his latest LP Burglaritis is built around his ability or inability to keep listeners interested with gags and punch lines.
You can't dismiss him for what he is, though, and that's a dude who really don't give a fuck WHAT you think about him. Listeners might be tempted to clump him into the same group of nerdcore rappers that Paul Barman and mc chris equate with, and a lot of the time he sounds just like them. Quite frankly, he's a dork, and if one thing's for damn sure, he doesn't say much in an effort to prove himself to any particular audience. It isn't often you hear rappers reminiscing of their childhood paper routes, and I can't recall the last time an emcee name-dropped Topanga in a rap, much less Dr. Mario or Gilbert Godfrey.
In that respect, SJ demands some approval, but his audacity doesn't necessarily make up for his raps, which generally consist of a lot of the same shit over and over again. Although nearly every track is intentionally funny, its as though Wordburglar feels that being silly is an adequate excuse for dropping wack rhymes. Case in point is the track "Layman's Terms," where ya boy actually fills two minutes and forty-two seconds of vinyl with lines like, "I'm a winner like someone who always wins," and "I keep getting bitten like bites." And that's the whole song. It's like a Blackalicious concept gone to hell, chewed up and spat back out again by Beelzebub himself, and it doesn't stop there. Making a bid for an even wacker concept than that is "Rhymes With I'm," where SJ turns what would have just been another annoying song into an annoying gimmick, where he indeed does yack out a bunch of "I'm this" rhymes.
It ain't all bad, though, especially when Wordburglar sticks to his guns. Even at his best, he lacks the charm of a Paul Barman, but its hard not to smile after a line like "act like you know like that woman who played the Oracle." Such raps are all the better with good beats behind them, and there's no such shortage. Producers Jorun Bombay, Uncle Fes, Fresh Kils, and Beatmason rarely falter on Burglaritis, with consistently hard hitting kicks, sharp snares, and great loops. Bombay wins you over on "Buttafly," and is the star on "Cream of Wheat," while Beatmason hooks Wordburglar up with eleven nice backdrops.
In a strange way, SJ the Wordburglar is too wacky to be written off, but far too redundant to really be taken seriously. In a nutshell, Burglaritis is your standard underground longplayer, complete with the autobiographical rap, the posse cut, the occasional "peace to the heads," and a cornucopia of average punch lines, all concealed under a goofy facade. "I stayed focused, stayed away from the mainstream," SJ says. Its such an incredibly played out notion, really I'm not sure if I even heard him say it or if I just expected as much. Someone let dude know that the mainstream ain't got shit to do with the quality of his music, only how many units of Burglaritis might get pushed.

The living room is usually the first port of call for guests, for activities, and for relaxing. However, despite its central role in our lives, comparatively few of us put much thought into organising our living rooms properly. Instead, most are a strange mismatch of purposes and zones. A well-designed living room can rival a kitchen as the heart of the home, so it's important to think about what you want to get out of yours.
Firstly, we need to consider that there are, essentially, only two types of living room: those that are lived in day-to-day, and those that aren't. The first, a space which needs to multitask, needs an organising plan. The second, a space set aside for special occasions, requires a purpose. Before you do anything, decide which best suits your space.
Organising Your Living Room as a Multitasking Space
The average living room is commonly used for watching TV, reading, casual entertaining, listening to music, and small activities such as playing board games or doing the Sunday paper crossword puzzle. You need to think about what your living room will be used for, but you also need to consider its size and shape, as this will undoubtedly have an impact on its functionality.
Once you know what functions you want your space to have, divide your living room into zones. Each zone should feature one or two activities; for example, you might have a comfortable sofa and a solid storage unit for a television and games console zone, or large bookcases, an armchair, a magazine rack, and a floor lamp for a reading zone.
Put together a list of items and furniture you will require for each function. If, for example, you wanted to create an area for entertaining, you would include plenty of seating, a coffee table or end table close to the seating, and perhaps a sound system. If you wanted a place to listen to music, you would include a comfortable seat, a space for your sound systems, speakers, a place to store your music, and a way to ensure that you can listen in peace.
When you've worked out what you need, draw up a to-scale floor plan to best organise your existing furniture into your required zones. It can be hard to rearrange your furniture without a specific plan in mind, and it will help you visualise what space you have and where your zones will be best placed.
No matter what functions and zones you decide on, there are two ideas that should be included in your design. The first is to include plenty of shelving. Shelves are versatile, and can be used in all your functional zones. They also add visual interest to your living room's décor. The second is to include plenty of containers in your zones, such as small bowls, baskets, or boxes. These will prevent loose items and clutter from taking up your available space.
Giving Your Special Occasion Room a Purpose
With your living room categorised into zones, your special occasion room now requires work. What purpose does it serve in your home? Many special occasion rooms end up being just a jumble of different functions, not really suiting any.
If you already have a family living space, the other room can serve as a formal living space, ideal for family occasions or less casual entertaining. Similar to the functional zoning for your living room, decide what you will do in the space and what items you will need. For formal dining and entertaining, include a dining table and an impressive sofa. If you want to use the room more frequently with your family, you might want to include floor cushions that can be used for many different functions, such as informal dining, a place for your children to have friends round, or even as somewhere to get away from whatever is happening in your zoned living room.
Your living room might be too small for all the function zones you want, so having them spill out into your special occasion room is a good idea. You can create corners and smaller zones within this space for all manner of things: a library, a desk for writing, or a hobby corner for items too big for use in your living room, such as an easel, a musical instrument, or planters.
The special occasion room is also the perfect place to display your favourite collections of art. Your casual living space will probably have more pictures of your family, but this room is ideal for having your own personal gallery.

Solera Home Improvement will help with your bathroom remodeling, when you live in an around San Jose, CA
Bathroom Remodeling – San Jose – Mini Spread Faucets
The lead article (the table of contents if you will) is titled Bathroom Remodeling.
This article is also part of a min-series about faucets.
A minispread faucet is similar to a wide spread faucet, but the handles are much closer together.
In a minispread faucet:
- coming up from the sink are three pieces, the spout, and the two handles
- the two handles are spaced four inches apart
- the connections of the water lines to the spout occur underneath the sink
Mini spread faucets are very common as most bathroom sinks are bored for four inch faucets.
Whether you prefer a minispread faucet, where the spout and the handles rise from the sink surface, or you prefer the centerset faucet, where the spout and the handles rise from a base piece that sits on the sink surface, is a personal decision.
However, some people who live in areas of hard water have expressed that the miniset faucet is harder to keep clean.
Their feedback is:
- the minerals in the water seem to accumulate faster on the sink surface than the faucet surface, and
- the space between the spout and the handle is very small

Work will begin in August on the first phase of a multi-million pound development on the east side of the city.
Developers Miller Homes Limited will start building 329 news homes near Aberford Road as part of the City Fields masterplan.
The scheme is one of the biggest regeneration initiatives ever seen in the city and is expected to attract thousands of new jobs and £500m of investment.
The work comes after Wakefield Council's planning committee granted outline permission to build 500 homes at the site last year.
It could eventually lead to more than 2,500 homes being built.
The City Fields scheme also includes building the Eastern Relief Road, which was approved last December.
The road will link the A642 Aberford Road and the A638 Doncaster Road, with a connection to Ferry Lane in Stanley. It is hoped the by-pass will help ease congestion.
The City Fields scheme was masterminded by planning consultants Spawforths and will be delivered in partnership with Miller Homes Limited, Grantley Developments Limited and Stretton Estates, bringing with it 3,200 jobs.
The development, which could take between 10 and 15 years to complete, could also include new offices, shops, industrial units, a school and a waterside park.
Coun Denise Jeffery, Wakefield Council's cabinet member for economic growth and skills said: "City Fields is an exciting and ambitious scheme which will create a brand new community in Wakefield.
"It will not only enable the building of new houses, but also open spaces, accommodation for businesses, and everything else a community needs to be sustainable and inclusive. It will also create hundreds of jobs and open up land next to the river and canal."

"There are days I think I am going crazy!" This comment is often heard from a person grieving the loss of a loved one. Part of the reason for feeling this way is because most of us are unfamiliar with what a grieving person can expect to feel.
The following will tell you what you can expect.
This will be one of the saddest times of your life. You may feel overwhelmed at times. You may be afraid you will never laugh again.
Perhaps you have never been this lonely before. Evenings and weekends may be the most difficult for you.
Perhaps you are angry at the doctors, at God or at family and friends for not supporting you like you thought they would. You may even be angry at the person who died for leaving you!
Grief is one of the prime causes of stress. You may experience some confusion, memory loss and inability to concentrate. This is temporary and you are not "losing your mind."
Almost everyone finds something to feel guilty about after someone has died. It is normal to feel guilty about things you wish you had said or done. Feelings of guilt may be justified. Most often they aren't. Most of us do the best we can with our lives.
The death of one you love often involves the death of your dreams and the loss of your future as you thought it would be. You may feel completely lost. This feeling is often accompanied by intense anxiety over what the future holds.
If the death has followed a long illness, you are probably relieved it is finally all over. This is quite normal and there is no need to feel guilty about this.
Perhaps you are a person for whom this death was truly "a blessing." It's OK to feel this way and to be genuinely thankful for the person who died and for the time you had together. Gratitude and thankfulness are great healers.
These symptoms are what we call normal or healthy symptoms of grief. In other words, if you are experiencing any of them, you are perfectly normal – and you aren't going crazy!

Eton Collegereview by University of Oxford student. The British exam system is, for the most part, based on assessment objectives: tick the boxes and you're guaranteed a great result. At Eton, while you are taught to tick the boxes, this is merely a preliminary measure: the emphasis in on going beyond the exam and enjoying the subject in all its depth. In English Literature, to take just one example, this means students enjoy deep and wide-ranging discussions not normally seen until the final year of a University degree. With excellent examination results expected and a huge proportion of the student body moving on to Oxford and Cambridge, Eton is best-suited to the highest-achieving students. That said, every student cannot be expected to excel in every subject and provision for those struggling is just as excellent. Close scrutiny is given to personal academic development and to progress relative to peers, which housemasters and personal tutors follow through the school's electronic reporting system: teachers file feedback for every student every couple of weeks. There is also a system of merits for good work (a few times a year, the very best pieces of work are put into the school's College Library, alongside some of the world's rarest manuscripts) as well as for poor or lazy work, meaning appraisal is effectively given every step of the way. For the first two years, class sizes are generally around twenty students per class. However, this becomes between three and ten students per class when students specialize in the final two years. Workload can seem daunting for some at first: students will often find themselves with several hours' worth of work to do on their own each weekday evening (called "EWs" [extra work] rather than homework, for obvious reasons). The emphasis is on learning to do things for oneself, and getting students started on the EW system early puts them in fantastic stead for University.

The school's faculties and 25 boarding houses are spread around a village campus which is not separated from the outside world, but nonetheless safe thanks to both a police presence and the school's own security team. Every boy gets their own room in their boarding house: at no stage do they have to share with other students. Each boarding house consists of 50 boys, a matron and a housemaster. Pastoral care rarely falls short. The boarding house system does not preclude students from making friends in the wider school - in class, sport, drama and art, students will form lasting friendships with boys in other houses. Most boarding houses go to a central canteen for meals: the quality of the food here is almost always good and often excellent. Some boarding houses have their own dining arrangements, and these are mostly good too although it is worth trying a house's food first! The village of Eton has a post office, newsagent, small electronics shop and food store. At weekends and on some half days, students can go into Windsor where there is a wider range of shops. There are also two railway stations, offering regular and quick services to London, the Thames Valley and Oxfordshire. The school is very close to London Heathrow airport, which is useful for international students. Aircraft noise is rarely an issue, though. Slough, just over a mile away from Eton, is a relatively deprived area and older students often help out in schools and care homes in the town. Houses will often have social events with girls' schools, and Eton frequently collaborates with Wycombe Abbey, St Mary's Ascot and others in dramatic productions: students do not emerge as sexist or misogynistic, and any such attitudes are stamped on quickly. With so much on offer, it is hard to be unhappy at Eton.
The question to really ask is: what activities aren't there for students? Every sport under the sun is catered for, and the school has a vast expanse of playing fields as well as a large gymnasium. The school funded the 2.25km rowing lake which is going to be used in the London 2012 Olympics. Students choose between soccer and rugby in the first semester of the year, between hockey and the Field Game (an Eton-specific ball game) in the second semester and between cricket, rowing and athletics in the third semester - these are classed as "major sports". In addition to these, boys are encouraged to try as many alternative sports as they can in their first year, and by their second year they are given pretty wide freedom to practice one that suits them, whether that's fencing, martial arts, basketball or anything else. If a sport isn't offered, a teacher is often willing to espouse its cause - thus how American football began a few years ago. The school takes on other schools in all the major and many of the minor sports. There are also internal, inter-house competitions in both kinds of sport. The result is a strange sense of school solidarity combined with internal competition. Students can take their sport to whatever level they like - whether that's once a semester, once a week or daily. I took up rowing daily, year-round, in the school's lake and on the Thames and got to compete in national rowing competitions, as well as local regattas most weekends. Sport was just one of the areas in which I made lasting friendships. For the less sporty, every instrument (even the didgeridoo!) is offered in the state-of-the-art music department, which includes a fantastic music technology suite, recording studio and rock room. The school puts on an amazing concert with its orchestra and big bands every term. There are two theatres in the school. In addition to the school and lower-school productions, there are house plays in which all are encouraged to get involved. Some boys also write, direct or produce independent plays which take advantage of either the theatre spaces or other, original spaces in the school. Many of these go on to be great successes at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The technically-minded enjoy themselves working in the Farrer Theatre, a professional-standard set-up. The tech crew help to prepare sets and rig lighting - by their third and fourth years, they can be designing their own sets. Past students who enjoyed Eton's facilities include Hugh Laurie, star of House MD; Max Pirkis, star of Master and Commander and Rome. The design department offers material and graphic design in class-time and in an extra-curricular capacity. Similarly, boys can enjoy painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, printmaking and digital art both in and out of class in the school's art department.

Do you have three different kinds of mustard, all of them at various levels of fullness (or emptiness), which you can't remember when you bought, taking up space on the shelves in your refrigerator door?
How about half-empty containers of ketchup? And salsa? And hot sauce? Perhaps some mayonnaise? Or maple syrup? Maybe a half-empty jar of olives (which is technically not a condiment, but work with me) or some soy sauce?
(I'll wait here while you go check your fridge. Though let's get real. You don't really need to check your fridge, cause you know you do.)
Do you remember when you bought all of these condiments? Any of them? Yet when is the last time you threw away a half-empty jar of mustard... or ketchup... or hot sauce, or checked to see if it was past the expiration date?
You can't remember, can you? Why? Probably because a) "I can't be bothered. I have enough sh*t to worry about"; b) "I hate to waste food, even condiments. And those things are supposed to last forever, right?" or c) "Yeah, and you know what will happen the second I throw that stuff out? Somebody's going to want it, and I'm going to have to run out to the supermarket."
And don't get me started about spices.
(I spent hours the other day actually sorting through our spice cabinet, or at least two shelves of it, tossing age-old spices and organizing the remaining jars, many of which we had two, or more, of, alphabetically. Only to have the teenager muck it all up days later. Sigh.)
Welcome to... The Condiment Conundrum, where we allow condiments to take over our lives, or our refrigerators (and cabinets or pantries). Yet for some reason, we are unable to throw out any of them (even when we move... or die*).
Why is this, fellow Americans? I would really like to know. And do Europeans and Asians suffer from the same condiment issues?
Please let me know your thoughts via the Comments.
*True story: My father, a bachelor for over 30 years, was famous, or infamous, for the contents of fridge, which consisted of several bottles of Champagne, a bag (or two) of Pepperidge Farm Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, cantaloupe and grapefruit halves, and jar upon jar of condiments. When he died suddenly, and I had to clean out his apartment, even though he was dead, I found it difficult to throw out all the condiments.

I entered class on Thursday with passion in my heart and fire in my eyes. Reading Beverly Daniel Tatum's "Why Are All The Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?" book about race relations the night before incited a fierce emotional response. It wasn't pretty, but I needed to let the monster loose.
Early morning discussions began in their usual too-tired-for-serious-talks fashion, but my conversation quickly culminated to a chain of criticisms concerning Tatum's entire portrayal of affirmative action. The comfort of the classroom allowed my true feelings to flow freely and, seeing red, I ranted without reservation. In any other situation, though, I guarantee my mouth would not have moved a muscle.
Because, as a white American, I'm afraid of being deemed a racist.
With the only early academic exposure to ethnic issuing being middle school textbook talks on slavery and civil rights movements, it's no mystery why so many white individuals avoid speaking up about the hot topic of race. Combine this background with media coverage of the continued unfair treatment of minority groups and we've got ourselves a system that supports silence on the subject.
Considering the successful communication across diverse groups sought after with the contact hypothesis described in chapter four of Intercultural Communication in Contexts, our nation needs more open and thorough conversations regarding race. Ignoring these talks only touts societal ignorance, and feelings of fear or anger often originate from the creation of a separate unknown collective. To combat this troubling trend, Thursday's experience must expand beyond the building's closed doors.
Course material on interracial issues should be implemented at the elementary level, integrated with equal importance alongside teachings of basic reading and mathematics skills. Tatum touches on the pervasive public tendency to shield its youth from engaging in these controversial conversations, but I argue that there is no better way to encourage tolerance than by explaining social issues to young impressionable minds.
Some will certainly claim that teaching a six-year-old the ins-and-outs of slavery is an impossible (or even inconceivable) task. While an understandable source of anxiety, Tatum proves these tough issues can be tackled with an actual explanation she gave her preschool-aged son. Simple language and sentence structure keep the content clear, and the infusion of positive depictions of Africans as "really good, strong, smart workers" (pg. 39) ensures the boy does not develop an intuition of inferiority.
Others may worry that these heavy childhood discussions could have the opposite effect, breeding a generation to dislike white people from the start. Fortunately, Tatum, being the masterful psychologist (and improvisational speaker) that she is, once again dodges another dark path:
"Now, even though some White people were kidnapping Africans and making them work without pay, other White people thought that this was very unfair, which it was. And those White people worked along with the Black people to bring an end to slavery. So now it is against the law to have slaves" (pg. 40).
Regardless of your race, no one should be brought up in a society structured to instill fear. And yet, a country devoid of unrestricted dialogue is doing just that. Black, white, purple, or green, we all deserve to dive into constructive conversations about racial issues, and need to if we are ever to find a culture free of prejudice.
In the end, we all deserve the comfort of the classroom.

People ask if Taxi is for real, if it's legit. I am a Taxi member. So far it hasn't helped me. But I've met real people who have had considerable success with Taxi. You may have seen the band Naked Blue in some Taxi ads. I can assure you they are real. They're from my home town (OK, the next town over). I was a Naked Blue fan long before they showed up in the Taxi ads.
Then there's the guy I met standing in line at the Taxi Road Rally. It was a long line, so we had a chance to share our life stories, including our experiences with Taxi. He had already achieved some success with Taxi, but in the next few years he had more and more success, until one day I saw him in the pages of Recording Magazine, in a Taxi ad. They don't make this stuff up.
My main advice about Taxi is, it works, but you have to submit a lot. That makes sense, because if you only submit one or two songs a year, your odds are much lower than if you submit 10 – 20 songs (or more) a year. There is no limit to how many you can submit. It's $5 per song every time you submit.
But submitting a lot means you must have a lot of well-recorded demos (or you can submit the same song over and over again). They can be home studio recordings, if you have the recording/producing skills.
Why hasn't Taxi helped me? For one, I joined when I only had a few song demos and I didn't have the wherewithall to record more. In retrospect, I should have waited a few years. Now I have a full CD under my belt and another on the way. We'll see how it goes.
If you know of a better way to get your songs to Film/TV music supervisors or to recording artists and their management, let us know by replying to this post.

And from Brian Farkas '10's book Covering the Campus: A History of the Miscellany News at Vassar College:
"Numerous editors from other college papers, as well as journalists and professors who attended the conference [in 2008 sponsored by Bloomberg News], lauded the overall 2008 Miscellany, but considered the Backpage to be childish, distasteful, and unable to effectively satirize the College in any meaningful way."
Update: Just to clarify, the decision to remove the Backpage was voted on unanimously by the Misc's editorial board of 20 full-time student editors. Although we think Brian Farkas' book provides insight into this debate, Brian played no role in the Misc's decision.
Update 2: Another former Misc editor-in-chief is speaking up. "I agree very much with all the impassioned arguments Eliza and Molly and various other backpage writers and former misc editors and staff," Acacia O'Connor '08 wrote to us in an email. "I never guessed that things could move so far away so fast from the paper I worked so hard on... into a shrouded mouthpiece for student government and the administration," she adds.
Of her time at the Misc, Acacia writes, "It was what we loved doing, and something we felt was important - a (not always successful, of course) attempt to report, comment and criticize on the college and its relationship with the area surrounding."
"Our connection to the paper and our work there isn't broken by a couple years time," she writes. I know former EIC's from the '70s and '80s, and... I have no doubt that many of them, too, would shake their heads as we are currently doing."
Acacia is going to Italy in a few weeks on a Fulbright scholarship to teach English, as well as coach basketball and soccer. She also held a job at the Association of American Publishers this past year.

Nokia Lumia 1520 Will Arrive On AT&T In Early November
Ryan Martin / 6 years ago
More details on the Nokia Lumia 1520, provided by WPCentral, note that the phone will become available from early November to AT&T subscribers in the USA. The handset itself will be unveiled a little bit earlier to spread the word about the new handset and that unveiling is expected to take place on September 26th.
The Lumia 1520 is reported to have a 3400 mAh battery alongside the latest Windows Phone 8 GD3 operating system. The large 3400mAh battery is larger than that of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 which uses a 3200 mAh battery. The hardware should include a 1920 x 1080 full HD display – which is a 6 inch capacitive and internally a Snapdragon 800 SoC is at the core. A 20MP PureView camera provides all your photography and video needs while 32GB of memory is complimented by a microSD card slot for expansion.
No official details have yet been provided about the hardware and pricing of the phone but we will continue to bring you those details as we get them.

Australia's bass and drum duo DEAD play big, heavy, dirty rock with a healthy disregard for genre restrictions and a strong desire to jam. Drummer Jem told M3 about what makes a good record store, the price of gig tickets and how you can help them fund their upcoming album…
M3 – First of all, could you tell us a bit about yourself, and what it is that you do?
Jem – I play drums in DEAD and run the label WeEmptyRooms. I also play in Fire Witch and some other bands that don't play much. Managing DEAD and the label is a full time occupation. Apart form that I do what work I can to pay the bills. If you're not into music I'm not very interesting really. I spend most of my day on the computer booking tours or out the back of the house screen printing album covers.
What inspired you to form DEAD? What are your own musical backgrounds?
Basically we both wanted to play a lot more music than our other bands could. We'd already played together in Fangs of… (Jace plays guitar in that band) so we knew that we shared a lot of ambitions and were happy to spend extended periods of time together in small spaces. Jace told me he can also play bass, I half believed him. We decided whatever we came up with together, we would have fun doing it. So we booked a tour and then started writing some songs. That put a kind of pressure on us that was a lot of fun really. When we first started playing no one really knew what to expect, including ourselves.
My musical background is mainly improvised stuff, it's how I learned to play. Jace grew up in remote NSW and I think learned to play mainly from covering AC/DC songs and then discovering bands like Hard-Ons.
What would be your preferred medium to listen to music (eg. Vinyl, CD, tape, MP3 etc.), and why?
I listen to a lot of vinyl. I got into vinyl 'cos when I was a kid it was dirt cheap. I guess people were getting rid of it figuring it was over. So it took me a while to come around to the idea of playing full price for it. Digital format is super handy though, I would never want to give it up. When vinyl is manufactured properly it does sound better. The convenience of digital is great and it allows so much music to be released that would otherwise remain unheard (for better and worse). I don't really have much of an interest in Cassettes. They hold a certain nostalgia for me but I've never once put one on and though "Now that sounds amazing!"
Do you feel the idea of an album, as a piece of art that people will listen to from start to finish, has been undermined or forgotten about in the digital age?
There is nothing to stop people from still listening to albums this way. If they choose not to that's their choice. As a band all you can really do is release it and understand that your album is like a suggested serving to people. People have always been able to skip tracks on their LPs and CDs. Bands like mine exist in an underground world that is always pretty separate to the mainstream. It may have played a part in the album's demise in the pop world but I don't really know or care if it has. It has led to people listening to music in very poor quality a lot more than they used to I think. For example a while back we had an album review where the reviewer had listened to it through their computer speakers. How can they possibly get an accurate take on the album that way?
Many people have claimed that there is no longer any money in record sales, and that touring is the most efficient way to earn an income as a band. How much truth do you think there is in this sentiment?
In ten years of doing this I've never made any money off either so I'm probably not the best person to answer that. I can tell you that we get paid a lot less from shows than ever. Ticket prices for underground shows have hardly changed in the last ten years. Like the price of weed they seem to be fixed in time.
But in that time petrol has almost doubled and other band related costs have gone up like anything else. Venue guarantees have even gone backwards in some places. We rarely cover even our travel costs when touring Australia. The bands themselves are responsible for this as much as anyone. As the scene gets more competitive (more bands) there are more people willing to play for nothing or cover the costs of the gig themselves for the chance to play to more people. The problem for bands like ours is this model is completely unsustainable and the more shows you play, the more money you lose. For most underground bands this is not a problem as they only tour a few times a year or less.
We'd need to sell a lot more records than we do now to even get to close to making money off record sales. That or we'd need to start getting paid for digital downloads and, apart from the handful of people who do that, I don't see it happening anytime soon.
But touring may well be a viable way to earn income in other parts of the world where cities are closer together, venues pay bands properly etc.
Much has been made of the supposed death of the record store in recent years. Do you believe the digital age has killed the record store, and if so, do you think that this is a necessary part of progression, or a tragic loss?
Where we live (Melbourne, Australia) we've seen a number of record stores open up and thrive in recent years. It seems to me that the model for success has changed, rather than the record store dying. In the past record stores were like the gatekeepers for all this cool music. And often they were very arrogant about this. You would go in and ask for a certain LP and they would make fun of you for your taste or make sure you knew what a pain in the arse you were being for them.
Now we as customers can order anything we like off the internet and do not have to go through a record store to get it. So the record stores left that do well are ones who know their stuff. They seem to be more specialised. They might have a whole lot of hard to get second hand stuff. Or an extensive knowledge of music that allows them to introduce you to new music. When I think of the record stores in Australia I frequent most (Broken Glass, Blackwire, Tym Guitars, Ritual, Round and Round, Thornbury records, Repressed and more) they all have something that makes them unique and a cool place to go. And if someone wants to buy one of my label LPs it is always cheaper for them to buy off an indy store than to pay the postage costs of mail ordering from me direct.
I am more than happy to see this continue and to see the bigger chain stores die off. I don't suggest this isn't a hard climate to open a record store in. People doing it are doing it primarily for the love and not make a huge profit.
The digital age is different to the old model of course. But to suggest it is worse I think is really narrow minded. For bands at our level the benefits outweigh the negatives. Of the people complaining it is ruining the industry I see mainly major labels who have made a living off exploiting musicians. I have no problem with them going out of business. Whether you like it or not the Digital Age is well and truly here. Trying to fight against it is like trying to stop a wave from breaking with your bare hands. You are much better off spending your energy on working out how to use it to your advantage.
Your upcoming second LP is being paid for through fan-funding. Why did you decide to opt for this method of funding?
Fingers crossed we will be funding part of this next LP that way. We're almost at the end of the campaign and very close to our target amount. We have been applying for government grants since we began this band to help pay for recordings and tours. So far we've not managed to get a single grant! So when we failed again to get a grant towards the costs of this next album we thought about other ways we could help fund it. A lot of people suggested we just play some shows which demonstrates how little the public understand about how poorly bands are paid.
But we calculated that across all three pressings (LP in USA, Cassette in SE Asia and LP in Australia) we had sold some 400-500 copies of our first album. So it seemed logical there were people out there who had an interest in us making another album. The Pozible website allowed us to set up a whole lot of different things for sale that people could purchase and know the cash was going towards the album. Even better is they know they will only part with the cash if we reach our target and make the album.
We also thought about ways we could make the album for less money but could not do it without compromising the quality.
What benefits and/or disadvantages have arisen from this fan funding method?
It's given us a platform to sell a whole bunch of things at once. They are mainly on offer below their value but then some people have paid extra for them which was unexpected. A few other bands have jumped on board and offered us things to sell which has been great. Nowhere Audio (Brisbane) made a live album for us at no cost which we have been selling to raise money.
If it's successful it means less of a debt for us to deal with for our album costs. And it's a great way to connect with the community our band are a part of.
Disadvantages: A lot of people have misinterpreted it as us asking for a cash hand out or donations from people. I can only assume these are people who have not actually looked at the details. It's not something we'll lose sleep over but it would be better if people did not see us in that light I suppose. The stuff we are offering is all well priced and if people don't think so they don't need to support it.
Do you think fan funding is a realistic alternative to the traditional record company method?
I've self funded every record I've made so I'm not familiar with the record company method. But I assume you mean the one where a label makes a band pay a lot of money for their record, then the band have to work forever to pay that money back and never own the rights to their own music. That method has no appeal to me.
I think it is a realistic way to help a band fund their recordings so long as they have already established some kind of a fan base. Paying for music in the digital age is a choice, not a necessity. If you can find people willing to support your band then I say give them every opportunity to do so.
What would you say are the main challenges facing an up-and-coming musician/band in today's cultural climate?
I can only really speak for Melbourne where we live. It's very competitive here. Getting people to notice you is very hard. There are great bands playing 7 nights a week here. So people are not starved for live music, they are exhausted from it! They can see a world class band on a weekend and think nothing of it as they are so used to seeing it.
Promotional avenues used to be more defined and there were less of them. If you gave a decent pitch to one of the street presses you could get an article and it would help promote your album/show etc. Now the major street presses are fairly useless to bands like us and only write articles on you if you pay them for advertising. I can't remember the last time I even read one. I feel like the promo avenues have splintered into all these different Zines, Blogs, Radio shows, On line radio etc. I think it's for the better but keeping up with it is not easy. It probably means it's easier than before to reach a small audience but harder to reach a larger one.
There is a lot of people out there who will exploit up and coming bands. Avoiding them can be hard if you are new to the industry.
The main challenge is paying the bills really. If you are happy to just play once a week, keep a normal job and pay for it yourself then that's a good approach. If you want to tour though and spend most of your time on the band it is an uphill battle I think.
Finally, what does the future hold for DEAD?
We record this next album in a few weeks. We tour Japan in September and will tour Australia again in December. We have a split 7″ with No Anchor that will come out some time this year, a re-mix album that I can't really say when it will be released and we'll release our second LP in Australia in December.
We're also making a collaborative album with BJ Moriszonkle; a musical genius who gets around Melbourne.
Apart from that hopefully more touring.
If you would like to help DEAD reach their target ammount for their next record, you can visit their official website and find them on Facebook.

For some people (women mostly) it's a symbol of love, unity and completeness. For others (men) it marks the end of singledom and tv dinners. A wedding ring is so more than a decorative item on your finger.
It's easy to identify a newly married man. He is the one with sweaty palms, uncomfortably twiddling the band which is making him feel and look like a homing pigeon.
But it does appear that more and more men are succumbing (or being coerced) to the idea of wearing a wedding band. Our fathers and grandfathers wouldn't have entertained the idea -"Blokes who wear jewellery are as queer as a nine bob note," is my father's particularly favourite saying.
So thank goodness for the introduction of equality where women can now retort: "I take your name – you wear the ring, sunshine."
Search for a man's wedding ring in Wave Jewellery and the fear element is reduced significantly. The staff have a keen eye for design and advise enthusiastically without peering over half-moon bi-foculs. It's also an incredibly contemporary and highly tasteful store, so there's no risk of emerging like darts player, Bobby "Dazzler" George.
We've rolled out our Wave favourites.
