However, management undertakes no obligation to update these or any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. If an update to our business outlook is provided, the information will be in the form of a news release. We wish to caution you that all of our statements, except the company's past financial results are just our current opinions, predictions and expectations.Actual future events or results may differ materially. For a review of risk factors, please refer to Microsemi's report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 03, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on November 23, 2010. That said, I'm going to turn the call over to John to discuss our financial results, and then Jim will address our end markets and overall business strategy. Here is John Hohener. John Hohener Thank you, Terri. Net sales for the quarter ending January 2, 201 were a record $184.4 million, up 21.9% from the $151.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2010, and up 63.4% from the $112.8 million reported in the year-ago first quarter. GAAP gross margin in the first quarter was a record 51.5%, and despite including the negative impact of non-cash purchase accounting adjustments related to acquired profit and inventory from our Actel acquisition, it increased 240 basis points from the 49.1 in the fourth quarter of 2010, and 520 basis points from the 46.3% in the year-ago first quarter. Excluding this non-cash item, our non-GAAP gross margin for the first quarter was 53.6%, up 440 basis points from 49.2% in the fourth quarter of 2010 and up 730 basis points from the 46.3% gross margin we reported in the year-ago first quarter. Approximately 90 basis points or $1.1 million of the sequential improvement is related to cost savings associated with our Scottsdale transition.
Our non-GAAP gross margin forecast for next quarter is expected to be in the range of 56% to 58%. We are still on track to cease operations of our Scottsdale facility by the end of February. Total annualized savings, when complete will equal $24 million, which is at the high end of our original goal.This quarter, non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses were $32.5 million or 17.6% of sales compared to $24.2 million or 16% of sales in the fourth quarter of 2010, and compared to $18.2 million or 16.2% of sales in the first quarter of last year. The increase is primarily due to the acquisition of Actel. SG&A will be up next quarter $3.5 million to $4.5 million primarily due to the addition of Actel for the third month in the quarter, as well as some additional cost to support our continued growth prospects for the coming year. Research and development costs were $24 million or 13% of sales compared to $16.7 million or 11% of sales in the fourth quarter of 2010, and compared to $11.8 million or 10.5% of sales in the year-ago first quarter. This increase was again due primarily to the acquisition of Actel. R&D will be up in the next quarter $3.5 million to $4.5 million, primarily due to the addition of Actel along with some additional costs, our product development efforts as we intend to continue to make prudent investments that will deliver continued organic growth. Our non-GAAP operating income was $42.4 million or 23% compared to $33.5 million or 22.1% in the fourth quarter of 2010, and $22.2 million or 19.7% in the prior year first quarter. We recorded $3.2 million in non-GAAP interest and other expense, primarily due to the interest expense on our term loan. This is for two months. We expect this expense to increase to approximately $5 million next quarter.
We account for our term loan under the fair value option and record charges to the fair value through other income or expense. Changes in the fair value of term loan balances outstanding did not result in a change to the principal we owe and our non-cash amounts that we exclude from internal measurements and from forecasting future non-GAAP results.Read the rest of this transcript for free on seekingalpha.com

That's Entertainment
We're taking a (hopefully) short break from gazing endlessly into the past just to bring you a quick look into the future – or at least into 2010, any further would be crazy talk.
The next year is set to be more of the same, that is to say, great. 2010 is chock-a-block with cracking titles that could prove to be pretty trailblazing for the future and – even better – it all begins in January.
As Paul pointed out last week, Mass Effect 2 is out at the end of the month and could prove to be a monster hit. If I'm completely honest, Bioware's enormously ambitious space opera hasn't quite delivered. The story and characters have been decent enough, but the choices are largely redundant (at the moment) and the control system a little cumbersome. But the signs are good. Bioware has been talking up the changes they've made to the way the game plays, and that could be crucial; Mass Effect was surprisingly old-fashioned when it came to the combat sequences and was – at times at least – difficult to enjoy. If they can crack the control system though, this could be an early contender for game of the year.
In early February, Bioshock 2 should arrive and will probably sell like hot cakes, if those hot cakes are called Call of Duty Modern Warfare Cakes, and with good reason too; the first game was one of the highlights of the last half-decade. But while it'll sell – there's no doubt there – commentators are concerned that the developers are removing stuff that actually worked in the first game. Why, for example, has the excellent hacking system been replaced by a 'real-time' system? And why have the musical announcements from ammo dispensers or Gene Banks been abandoned? Tiny changes like that can ruin a game. There was even a piece in Rupert Murdoch's hateful IGN last week that warned that in the first few hours, the developers used a particular lighting trick on three separate occasions. That's not good; but expect a review on this very website as soon as one of us can be arsed to buy a copy.
Good news next: Call of Duty is back (probably)! Infinity Ward are unlikely to be on the case this year though, rumours suggest they're busy trying to find a bank large enough to house their money, but Treyarch are. This is likely to mean that we're not going to be seeing a Modern Warfare title (technically these titles aren't "Call of Duty" related), so it'll be at some point in the past. At a guess, it'll be Vietnam because World War II titles are seriously running out of steam. Traditionally, Vietnam games are terrible so EDR doesn't hold out much hope this'll be any good, but it'll sell well. Meanwhile, in EA towers, the Medal of Honour team is following Infinity Ward's lead with the re-launch of that once-hallowed title. This could turn out to be a reasonably good thing, while MW2 was just a series of cinematic vignettes; the Medal of Honour games have always been less sugar coated. It takes place in modern Afghanistan so it needs to be handled sensitively. Fingers crossed then.
We should also be expecting Max Payne 3 and Alan Wake to hit the PC and consoles. The former was always going to turn up and looks like it might be pretty good – Max is now addicted to painkillers, which is awesome – and the latter is looking interesting, but no one has seen enough of it to comment. Our guess: Max Payne 3 appears first.
Massive money maker Halo also returns this year (again) with Halo: Reach, which is a continuation of Halo lore and takes place on the aforementioned planet. There's quite a bit of information of this and apparently it's good, but EDR refuses to get excited about endless sequels unless it's Aliens Vs Predator, which does look splendid.
If you're a Wii fan, this year could be pretty good because EDR favourite, Super Mario Galaxy is back and promises to be very good indeed, but it may also be worth watching out for Red Steel 2 because it might finally deliver the first-person goods.
In our view, RPGs are going to be dominated by three names, Mass Effect 2, Fable 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. We know the Fable 3 will probably be a key title for Microsoft's new Project Natal system and will likely appear at the end of the year, but Fall Out: New Vegas is likely to be expanded upon and will dominate the airwaves for a while. EDR can also brazenly state that an Elder Scrolls MMO will be announced this year, although it won't appear until 2011 at the very earliest.
Talking of MMOs, 2010 could be an interesting year seeing at 2009 wasn't. First up is APB – something we've mentioned before – which promises to mix GTA with Crackdown and add a sprinkling of user-generated content. It's completely mad, but the levels of game customisation could prove to be a winning formula and could even see the generation of entire sub-games like some sort of crazy Escher painting. Alternatively, Lego: Universe could stamp all over it when it comes to user generated content. The last game could be the Game of the Year if done properly.
WOW is back too, this time with Cataclysm. Not my cup of tea, but it does sound absolutely fascinating. Completely destroying the game and then brining it roaring back to life? That's one way to recycle, I suppose.
No doubt 2010 will also see a lot of strategy developers talk up "doing something different" and then just do the same thing endlessly. This year keep an eye out for Command & Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight, Supreme Commander 2 and Starcraft 2, none of which will do anything different. Napoleon: Total War will be out by Christmas though, and that features short, angry French men. What could possibly go wrong?
Deep breath now – let's all keep an eye out for Just Cause 2, Epic Mickey (although it's looking a bit pants), Super Mario Galaxy 2, Crackdown 2, Heavy Rain, Mafia 2 and Red Dead Redemption – especially that last one, it could be the first truly awesome Wild West game. They all promise a lot and many of them could deliver.
Finally, what won't be appearing? Well, EDR's crystal ball says that we're unlikely to hear from Rage this year because now that Bethesda own Id, it's just too similar to the current crop of apocalyptic shooters – including Fallout. That's a shame; Rage was looking like Id had finally got their mojo back, but that's the way with corporate take-overs.
And what about Valve, eh? We wouldn't be surprised to see that lot show up with something worth waiting for.
Anyway, have a good year everyone.

Lori Lee of Surf City Temptations brings a piece of tropical island paradise to Surf City. Like so many local entrepreneurs and artisans, her contributions to the local art community and economy are filled with serendipity, hard work and creativity.
A California native with a strong family background in the restaurant business, Lori spent some years in the Midwest pursuing a successful career as a chef. In the late 90s, while working at Brett Favre's Steakhouse in Green Bay, Wisconsin, she decided to move back to Southern California to be close to family. She also missed California culture. Those early transition years were spent working at a tanning salon that also offered massages to clients. As luck would have it, the massage room needed some candles, and it just so happened that Lori had spent snowed-in days in Wisconsin making candles.
"There was nothing else to do, and everyone there made their own candles," she reminisces. She dug up some old handmade candles to put in the massage room, "and that's how it all started," says Lori. "Customers loved the smell, and one day my boss said to me, 'You should sell those candles!'"
The salon owner was instrumental in getting her business off the ground in 2005. Lori began making candles by hand again and selling them at the salon, and together they inquired about selling her products at the Pier Plaza Art-A-Faire. Here, she ran into a small obstacle. Says Lori: "The farmers markets don't like a lot of competition, and they already had a candlemaker. So they said to me, 'We need a soap seller. You can sell 80 percent soap and 20 percent candles.' So that's what I did, and I still sell soap now. I began experimenting with the candles, and I'd learn how to do things by hand. For a while I would get raw bamboo and use that to put the candles in, and eventually I moved on to coconut shells. Within two years [2007], everything was tropical."
Her candles were a hit, and pretty soon she was also selling on weekends at the Art-A-Faire. She has been stationed there ever since, and in 2012 she joined the Surf City Nights lineup on Main Street. Her stepdad, Bob Stone, has been a huge support, having helped her setup her booth every Friday for the past eight years.
Lori has always created new ideas for her products, and in 2009, she stumbled upon a winning recipe to debut for Valentine's Day: her massage oil candle. Massage oil candles have been gaining in popularity over the years and are more than just scented candles. They provide a pleasing aroma, and they can be used as lotion and massage oil. This is now the most popular item Lori sells.
She hand-makes her own recipe of high-quality, aromatic massage oil from grape seed, coconut, hemp, vitamin E and a bit of soy, and also adds a hint of a tropical scent made from natural, high-quality ingredients. There's a scent for everyone, with sweet, warm, comforting bouquets like black raspberry vanilla, the island coconut signature blend (coconut, mango, papaya, pineapple and Tahitian vanilla) and mango papaya. For folks who like more earthy or savory scents, the candle comes in cucumber melon and eucalyptus spearmint as well.
One thing that sets Surf City Temptations apart from other makers is the unique presentation that takes the candles beyond a glass container and moves them into the realm of artistic expression. All of Lori's candles are hand-poured into carefully cleaned coconut shells or authentic, premium seashells, which can be displayed on small wooden stands and instantly bring those in the room into a more natural, relaxing mindset.
After Surf City Temptations got off the ground, business boomed for years. "I would easily earn $800 to $1,000 per day selling my products when the economy was good," says Lori. Now, times are tougher. After the 2008 economic crash, she felt the hardships of being a local small business owner. Says Lori, "It's been really hard since the economy went down. It's hard when you do everything yourself." She works extremely hard to keep her products on the shelf, and she runs her Huntington Beach-based business completely alone out of necessity. Since she makes everything by hand (even preparing the coconut shells that contain the candles), she is always working and surrounded by her products. One of the perks of this lifestyle, though, is access to her own quality products. "I use the massage oil candle," she tells us.
Even though the massage oil candle seems to be everyone's favorite, Lori also hand-makes traditional scented candles in coconut shells and seashells using high-quality palm wax, soy and a wide variety of tropical island scents. She also features aromas like basil mint, sexy and ocean mist to the list of options, and adds bursts of lively, saturated colors to these candles since they aren't meant to be used on the skin. This splash of color further emphasizes the island theme.
When asked about competing with products that have been outsourced out of the country and mass produced, Lori replies confidently, "We [artisan business owners] have pride in our work that they'll never have." That sounds about right. Each creation at Surf City Temptations is unique and beautiful and has an extra ingredient: a bit of that island relaxation perfect for unwinding after a long day. And for those who are looking to purchase a gift, Lori can add wrapping that is just as special and hand-created as what's inside the package.
Surprised by the ways her history in the restaurant business prepared her for running her own business, Lori draws parallels between cooking a meal and making a candle. Besides the obvious job of experimenting with recipes, "Making a candle is not too hard, but it's all about timing," she explains. "I found that I'm more creative than I ever thought. The restaurant business helped me in other ways too," she notes: "Things like accounting, ordering supplies and managing inventory."
These days, despite some difficulty in keeping the business running, Lori emphasizes the importance of supporting local entrepreneurs who work tirelessly to keep their products and services available to the community. "My regular customers who come to me weekly or monthly keep me afloat," says Lori.
Chat with her on Tuesdays at Surf City Nights and Fridays at the Pier Plaza Art-A-Faire.

Iloilo City, Philippines – Iloilo City, a 100 percent smoke-free city led by its Mayor, Jed Patrick Mabilog, hosts for the third time in Philippines, a historic gathering of tobacco control champions from all over the ASEAN group.
With the them "Building the Alliance of Smoke-Free Cities in the ASEAN region", the conference being held at Diversion 21 Hotel in Iloilo City, opened with a regional workshop on May 20. It continues on today the 21st and brings together Philippine City Mayors, ASEAN Governors and leaders who have championed making their cities and municipalities 100 percent smoke-free.
Southeast Asia Tobacco Control Alliance (SEATCA) Executive Director, Ms. Bungon Ritthiphakdee says, "the gathering hopes to expand the Smoke-free Cities ASEAN Network (or SCAN), a network of smoke-free cities, municipalities, and provinces in Southeast Asia. "In the ASEAN region, smoke-free initiatives, such as Smoke-free World Heritage Sites in Indonesia, Lao PDR, Thailand and Cambodia, Smoke-free SEA Games in the Philippines, Lao PDR, Thailand and Cambodia, Smoke-free SEA Games in the Philippines, Lao PDR and Indonesia, and the expansion of smoke-free environments to restaurants and bars have been initiated.
The summit and workshop are organized by the Southeast Asia Control Alliance (SEATCA), in close collaboration with the World Health Organization in the Western Pacific Region and the Department of Health of the Philippines, and hopes to realize the following specific objectives:
- Asses and evaluate the compliance of sub-national smoke-free laws with the WHO-Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC) Article 8 Guidelines;
- Share updates and lessons learned from the best practices of countries, cities and other smoke-free settings/places around ASEAN;
- Determine annual progress by identifying the key elements presents in their smoke-free city campaigns using the Smoke-free Meter;
- Identify ways of strengthening mechanisms of enforcement and prepare some action points through the lessons learned from other cities and countries;
- Learn from Iloilo City's own smoke-free initiatives and programs.
Other participants to the two-day smoke-free activities are from local and international tobacco control civil societies, government officials and other representatives from the ASEAN.
Last year, Balanga City, led by its mayor, another staunch tobacco control advocate, and recently appointed Interim President of the Network of the Philippine Mayors Executive Council, Jose Enrique Garcia, hosted the 2nd ASEAN Regional Smoke-free Workshop. The year before, Davao City, led by Mayor Rodrigo Duterte hosted the first ever ASEAN Smoke-free meeting.[pq]Globally, tobacco use kills nearly six million people annually and by the year 2030, 80 percent of tobacco-related deaths will occur in developing countries- including many Asian nations.[/pq]
There are 600 deaths yearly due to exposure from second-hand-smoke (SHS). "100 percent smoke-free environments fully protected workers, the young, and the public from serious harmful effects of tobacco smoke, prevent people, specially the youth, from starting to smoke, and are good for business, as more and more people prefer to go to smoke-free places." Ms. Ritthiphakdee adds. (ENDS)

I got my head so far up the underground and paid no attention to the mainstream of electronic music that I couldn't tell you the dates of Camp Bisco, EDC or Ultra (March is the best I can do) or any shit like that. I hate huge festivals.
I've seen so much coverage of this thing on other blogs that I'm like "I'll get some hits. I'll post about that shit". But I'm just gonna say exactly what I think about each artist or group instead of pretending I have a boner over everything because I ain't even fucking trying to get any VIP backstage press shit to this.
1. Above & Beyond: I have no fucking idea who this is? Is it two guys? What is this the supergroup of Avicii and Skrillex that I wouldn't care about? Just looked them up. They make progressive trance so in my language that means entry level dick soft music. I say I accept everyone's taste in music but if you like trance I do make judgements on the inside.
2. Afrojack: Total noob shit. Like, if you like this shit in 2013/14 you prob discovered dance music through pop radio.
3. Alesso. Don't know shit. Don't care.
4. Armin Van Buren: This is for people that don't like music or receptionists or call centre employees.
5. Avicii: All I know is that one track and good for him. Prob made tons of cash. Otherwise he seems like what you would like in grade 9.
6. Carl Cox: Is this a museum? Am I allowed to take flash photos or touch the artifacts?
7. Can't even read this name
8. David Guetta: My younger sister liked his shit in like 2006. If you like this now I don't know what to tell you. I think we are too different to communicate.
9. Diplo: I guess I would like a lot of the songs that he would play. He did a lot of great collabs recently.
10. Hardwell: Couldn't name one fucking song and care so little I'm not even gonna look shit up.
11. Kaskade: Progressive house. No thanks just not interesting to me.
12. Krewella: I have no fucking idea what this is, yet hear everyone talk about it. There's like chicks in this group or something. This just makes me think of some bad electro Evanescence. Prob wrong but too late. Unfiltered. Just saw a photo. Yeah this looks terrible. Sure lots of dudes wanna finger the chicks tho.
13. Loco♦Dice: No fucking idea
14. Luciano: No fucking idea. Sounds terrible.
15. Marco Carola: No fucking idea but from the name I would say boring house.
16. New World Punx: WHO THE FUCK IS THIS?
17. Nicky Romero: Big room noob "i just did molly" shit
18. Solomun: No fucking clue. Here, let me looks this up. Sounds like shit that people from Russia would like.
19. Steve Angello: Steve Angell-no thanks I'm not a douche.
2o. Tiesto: Why? Who actually likes this shit who has listened to anything that came out after 2000.
21. Zedd: Never really cared. Cool to know that he recently has branched out from electro house into progressive house and dubstep. Those are so much better.
Live Acts-
Just sum this up as 2 Many Djs, Cut Copy, Pusha T and even maybe M.I.A. are a big yes. Rest gets an "I don't know/care" except for MGMT and Eric Prydz which are a "no thank you at all".
People not Famous enough to headline Ultra but could headline the fuck outta your town-
Big Yes: Cyril Hahn, Dj Snake, Just Blaze, Riff Raff
Big I Don't Care/Know: Everyone else
Observations: Why is Riff Raff not a headliner? Was Diplo like "I'm ur boss and only I can get top billin"? Otherwise a lot of this is very entry level to EDM.
In sum: Why is there so much electro house and trance around? Is that what the people want? Why? Do they hate life? You can take molly to other music too.
PS Carl Cox and Friends sound like the worst shit ever like it's a whole stage for Baby Boomers.

Imagine a split Japan
By David Ritchie
It's late at night, but sleep probably is far away, because I've just finished visiting the Energy News website at enenews.com and reading a discussion of recent videos from Fukushima. Something there appears to be on fire.
What look like yellow, green and orange flames can be seen in nighttime webcam views. If one analyst is correct, then the spent fuel pool at Reactor 3 has fallen all the way out of the building and onto the ground, leaving a big gash in the wall and (presumably) spilling the pool's contents onto the ground.
If spent fuel is burning in the open air at Fukushima and sending up clouds of radioactive smoke, then the crisis must have entered a whole new phase — perhaps orders of magnitude worse than before.
Being no video analyst, and certainly no expert on nuclear technology, I hesitate to say more on that topic. You can check the discussion thread, with pertinent videos, at:
Pay particular attention to James2's post on 19 December at 12:01 am.
After checking that discussion group, I wonder: if things get steadily worse at Fukushima, then how long will Japan remain viable as a nation?
Consider this scenario. Radioactivity in central Japan leaves that portion of the country uninhabitable and thus splits the country in two. The only habitable places left would be in the far north and far south, with a hot wasteland inbetween.
What then? Could Japan survive as two isolated ends, so to speak, without a midsection? Though made largely in ignorance, my guess is no.
And what would the rest of the world do without Japan as we know it?
Maybe those are the wrong verb tenses. The question might just as well be this:
What will the rest of the world do without Japan as we used to know it?
Anyway, it's time to try getting to sleep. Tomorrow is a workday in Seoul, whatever may be happening just across the East Sea. For now, life goes on despite radionuclides in sea and air.

Even more murals!
OK…I'm on a "roll" here. The Earth Harmony Foundation's "Seeds of Peace Mural Programs" page has some great images. As the site explains:
Images of peace to shape a peaceful future.
Creative expression and fostering artistic development.
Utilizing talents and imagination of schoolchildren to uplift their community.
Beyond the absence of war, peace is a way of living in which [sic] enriches our lives and our world. We can develop our awareness of how to live a peaceful life through art and imagination.
Peace is living in a state of harmony with the earth and all it's creatures.
It is maintaining balance, between the grand and the humble, the mountain and the dewdrop.
It is creating safe and fruitful places to live, to work, to play, to cherish.
It is embracing the needs of the many, while upholding the freedom of the individual."
"The 'Seeds of Peace Mural Project' is a program in which school children from local communities design their 'seed' of peace, and paint it on a mural. In this way, they develop their artistic skills and focus on the world they would like to see in the future.They are educated about respecting the community and community beautification in an effort to reduce grafitti."
"Locations include neighborhood alleys, walls of businesses, and exteriors and interiors of schools, so that children and communities can have reason to feel good about where they live and work. At the same time, art and positive messages are encouraged in the neighborhood. Grafitti is often covered over and prevented."
There are many inspiring pictures here, so I will only include one or two to whet your appetite to go and see them all.
This is a very nice project, which like so many good projects, serves a number of purposes. It "fits" in a number of ways: it helps develop children's creativity, it addresses a local problem (ie grafitti) by adding something of beauty and, of course, it draws peoples' attention to the great themes of peace and environmental harmony.
Good stuff!!!

Inflatable Meat Balloons Are the Perfect Decorations For Your Next BBQ [Balloons]on May 19th, 2012
Last week's cupcake-filled sausages put a damper on our appreciation of all things meat. But our mood has been considerably improved now that we've discovered these fantastic hand-made balloons that look exactly like cuts of meat. They've even redeemed sausages for us.
The incredibly unique decorations were created by a Chicago-based design shop called ODL for a New York-based butcher shop called Japan Premium Beef. Each balloon takes about three hours to make, including the painting process that turns the latex creations into believable cuts like porterhouses, t-bones, and filet mignons.
Unfortunately ODL doesn't seem to have any plans to sell the balloons to meat lovers. Which is sad because they'd make for great BBQ decorations, and would finally allow clowns to make anatomically correct balloon animals.

Leyton Powerflush Services
Occasionally our customers want to organise a Leyton Powerflush because they are concerned about their impact on the environment. And a Powerflush must be carried out when your central heating system begins to malfunction, as this will cause your energy bills to rise along with your energy wastage levels.
Like many of our heating, gas and plumbing services, our Leyton Powerflush services should actually save you money over the long term by making your system more efficient. As well as saving money on your energy bills, you should face fewer maintenance bills as the Powerflush averts potentially costly problems from developing.
If you find your heating system takes an age to become warm or the pump often fails, the boiler makes a racket or has tepid water in the header tank, you probably need to arrange a Leyton Powerflush with us. Further evidence of this need is radiator issues like cold spots, leakages, containing filthy water or requiring to be bled often.
A Leyton Powerflush will always be carried out before a boiler installation takes place; our PGS heating plumbers always insist on this because it can avert problems at a later date. Regardless of whether the faults are perceptible or not, on many occasions a central heating system is operating inefficiently because of unwanted materials in the system.
Regardless of whether you have observed any major issues with your central heating system, it is likely to be running less efficiently due to the natural build up of waste materials in the system unless you have recently had a Powerflush carried out or the system is new. Your heating system will be restored to full efficiency once more, after a Leyton Powerflush has taken place.

|Metal-organic molecule-semiconductor junctions are controlled not only by the molecular properties, as in metal-organic molecule-metal junctions, but also by effects of the molecular dipole, the dipolar molecule-semiconductor link, and molecule-semiconductor charge transfer, and by the effects of all these on the semiconductor depletion layer (i.e., on the internal semiconductor barrier to charge transport). Here, we report on and compare the electrical properties (current-voltage, capacitance-voltage, and work function) of large area Hg/organic monolayer-Si junctions with alkyl and alkenyl monolayers on moderately and highly doped n-Si, and combine the experimental data with simulations of charge transport and electronic structure calculations. We show that, for moderately doped Si, the internal semiconductor barrier completely controls transport and the attached molecules influence the transport of such junctions only in that they drive the Si into inversion. The resulting minority carrier-controlled junction is not sensitive to molecular changes in the organic monolayer at reverse and low forward bias and is controlled by series resistance at higher forward bias. However, in the case of highly doped Si, the internal barrier is smaller, and as a result, the charge transport properties of the junction are affected by changing from an alkyl to an alkenyl monolayer. We propose that the double bond near the surface primarily increases the coupling between the organic monolayer and the Si, which increases the current density at a given bias by increasing the contact conductance.

(Context: Genesis 35:29)
Through the years, this landscape has grown familiar. To the north, a ladder rises without visible support. A host of men with hidden, glowing faces climb and descend, moving past and sometimes through each other as they travel to and from what must be the heavens. In what should be the ladder's shadow, a man without a name waits in a circle of blinding light, in wrestling garb, always prepared for battle. The moon is always three-quarters full, shining through a gap in clouds that never block the stars. Constellations spell new signs each night. A rainbow, full and bright against the darkness, arcs out to the caves below them. Where the colors meet the sand before the caves, my sons await.
I am always running when I find myself here, running with my flock of mottled goats, running from a darkness behind me that I cannot see, but can feel, can smell. The scent of the skin of slaughtered goats pursues me, threatens to envelop me. I know that if I stop, if I am captured, the skin will bond to me, shape itself to me and me to it, suffocate me, make my blood its blood. I shout out the name that my father gave me, but the echo comes back in the laughter of the man beneath the ladder, with a new name that he says that I must now use.
The weeping fades toward me as I approach the caves, shading from high-pitched peaks of sound down through full-throated sobs. Wisps and gasps of breath become audible as I grow nearer. From the mouth of each of the caves I hear the tears themselves, like the rushing, the rhythm of invisible rain. They are the tears of my beloved, the only woman that I have ever loved, crying for being taken too soon, crying for her sons, unable to be consoled about her sons, because she cannot hear them.
She cannot know that her sons are both right here, outside the stone-sealed mouth of the caves. The older son stands in the caves' cool shadow. His blond curls wave in the gentle breeze as he makes up wordless songs in his high, ethereal voice. He rocks his brother's cradle as he taps one foot in rhythm with the rain of tears, with his song. He does not recognize the sound of the rain as his mother's tears. To him, the rushing, the darkness are simply the weather, the way that things have always been, will always be.
In the shadow of the caves, I reach, lift, embrace, and hold my older son. The running, the panic cease as the scent of the pursuing skins is replaced by the whisper of pure soap, of flowers, of my son's flowing hair. I listen to him breathe until the rhythm of my own breathing matches the pulse of his breath, the cradle, the tears, the rain.
After a long moment (I cannot tell how long — since the moon and shadows never move and the breeze always blows steadily from the west, it is as if time does not move when I am still), I slowly put my son down. I sit on a flat rock next to the cradle. My son sits next to me, tilting onto his side, his head resting on my thigh. I lift an earthen cup that is on the other side of me and drink its warm spiced tea. My free hand gently rubs my son's back as we sit in silence.
I finish the tea and put the cup back down on the rock. My son looks up at me. "You are tired," he says. "What dreams kept you awake?"
I look into his eyes, which seem so much older than the rest of him. Drawn into his gaze, I feel the memory awaken within me.
"I am in that strange, familiar world," I say. "I appear to be successful, with many wives and many sons and many, many goats. I am traveling across a partched landscape, as I have so many times before. This time, I am going to my father's house. He has died. Why am I dreaming this?"
My son closes his eyes, sits silently, then opens them. "You fear for me when you die. You fear that you may be taken from me far too soon. The family and flocks are the wisdom, the skills that you have accumulated here. You fear that even they may not keep us from being separated."
I nod, say nothing, take his small hand in both of mine and hold it tightly.
"Was there more to the dream?' he asks.
"In the dream, I, too, have a brother, a twin. I have not seen him in many years. I fear and distrust him, and even consider finding an excuse to be late for the funeral so that I will not encounter him."
"This brother," my son asks, "had he hurt you in the past, betrayed you, shown bad faith toward you?"
"No, no, it is more that…" I pause, reach more deeply back into the memory of the dream. "It is more that I have hurt him, that I have repeatedly lied to him and betrayed him. Yet he continually pursues me, wants to connect with me, embraces me when he does encounter me, and does me no harm."
"And what is pursuing you here? Can you see what he represents?"
"The… skin?" I ask. "The scent of the invisible skin?"
My son nods. "What do you know of the skin? Why does it pursue you?"
"It seems like it is rushing to fill a void, to fill some gap in itself. It wants to engulf me, make me part of itself."
"Do you see your brother in the dream? What does he look like?"
"I didn't see him, but I remember having seen him. He looks… he is my twin, and looks exactly like me, only hairier. His skin is rough. In the dream, I remember the sensation of wrestling with him, remember the sense, the scent of his skin, all bristles and acrid sweat…"
"And you are running from him."
"As you are running from the skin."
"I… Yes. But they cannot be the same."
"The skin is pursuing me, always pursuing me. And there will be great danger if it catches me." I shudder audibly.
My son places his free hand on my right hand, so that each of us holds the other's hand in both of his own. "But in the dream," he says "you recall finding welcoming peace each time that your brother has caught up with you."
"Yes. But still I fear him, fear what he might do, what he might say."
"I fear… I fear that he knows me too well. He has seen me take from him what should be his, has seen me betray him, has heard me tell lies when he knows the truth. He knows that he is the good man that I only appear to be, and even though he knows that I — and even my sons — cannot keep ourselves from telling the stories that deride him, he still has…"
I feel my tears begin, gathering in my eyes and flowing in parallel to the sound of the tears from the cave. I lower my head, rest my forehead against my son's soft curls. "Compassion," I whisper. "For all that I am renowned to be strong in the dream, that I am known to be brilliant and successful, he is the bearer of compassion, honor, and truth that I can never know."
"And when he reaches you?"
"When he reaches me, embraces me, I feel the void in my life, then feel it filled, as halves of a soul that was split in the womb become one. And when he lets go, I feel myself diminished, as if what I need has been taken away. And I resent that, and that turns into fear, fear and hatred of him."
My son looks into my eyes even more deeply, and his own eyes glow and reflect like screens, like mirrors, showing me an image of myself. In a slow transformation, I see myself grow coarser, hairier, yet somehow gentler, see myself change into the image of my dream brother.
Then the image of my brother thins, like steam dissipating from above the kettle. But what mists away is what of me was in my brother's form, subtracting and dissolving until all that is left is —
"Yes. The skin," my son says. "Why do you run from it? What danger do you fear if it reaches you?"
"If it reaches me, it will absorb me, consume me. I will become part of it."
"Or," he says more quietly, "it will become part of you. The gaps in each of you will be completed, and you will be a whole being."
We sit in silence. Around me, I sense the colors of the landscape becoming richer, stronger. The foot of the rainbow, which had been closer to the mouth of the cave, is now nearer to us, now surrounding us, until all is color, and the rocks and sand and caves have faded away.
"Listen," my son says. "All that you have ever been, all that you have ever seen, all that you have ever dreamed is part of you, and will be part of you forever. What is in your arms is in your soul. What you are running from is running to you. And you, and it, and I will always be here together."
As he speaks, the sound of the rain of tears grows louder, until it is a rushing of waves on a beach, until it is the white noise of a static storm that obscures all other sound. I hold him tightly, but I feel him being taken from me by a torrent of history that crashes across realms. I cannot hear my voice when I cry his name, no longer feel his pulse, his breath, his warmth against me. My arms fold in against me, collapsing across my chest. I open my eyes and see that I hold only his cloak, a cloak made from the rainbow. I howl in pain, in loss, and start to run, in no direction but away.
When again I look around me, I see that I am running through the usual landscape, with the ladder, the wrestler, the moon, the caves all in their usual positions.
A voice comes to me from beyond the caves, its echoes preceding it, as if the words have been flung backward from a distant future: "Do not fear, my servant Jacob, for I am with you." I have never heard the voice before, have always known that voice, which rings with memories of my son's voice, of my brother's voice, of my own.
I hear a silence following me, a gap in the landscape of sound, almost tangible in its presence of absence. Then my senses are overwhelmed by the scent of the skin, the memory of dreams of slaughtered goats, the hole in this world, in this life, that I know will fill me, that I know that I must fill.
Fighting my own momentum, I slow my running, stumbling as I walk, as I stop, as I turn. The presence of the skin hurtles toward me. I whisper my son's name, then look up, close my eyes, and open my arms.

Saizen REIT's co-CEO and director, Mr. Chang Sean Pey, bought 200 lots at 16c per unit on 12 Nov, last Friday. Continual insider buying is what we have come to expect for this deeply undervalued REIT.
Today, Saizen REIT announced the divestment of another property in YK Shintoku's portfolio: Reef Suite. This is for a cash consideration of JPY 123,184,249 (S$1.9 million), a discount of 6.7% to valuation. This property is located in Sapporo, was built in September 2005 and comprises 18 residential units and 15 parking lots. As of 30 June, this property had an occupancy rate of 84% and brought in JPY 13.2m in rental revenue (gross yield of 10.7% at the selling price). After this divestment, the net outstanding loan of YK Shintoku amounts to approximately JPY 4.9 billion (S$76.7 million).
Read announcement here.
The general picture of increased buying interest in Saizen REIT continued today. 16c is still the battle zone between bulls and bears. 16c remains a significant resistance to overcome as that is where we find the flat 200dMA approximating.
With most of the sell queue at 16c bought up, we just need to see a moderately high volume up day to take out the relatively shorter sell queue at 16.5c. I have an immediate target of 19c in case this happens but, before that, expect rather stiff resistance at 18c, the high in January 2010.

French scientists have developed a novel hepatitis C vaccine that may offer the first effective way to prevent an infection that can cause chronic liver disease and cancer.
There is currently no available vaccine for hepatitis C, though some companies are developing so-called "therapeutic vaccines," which are designed to help patients who are already infected.
The latest experimental shot has been tested successfully on mice and monkeys, but not humans, and has been shown to activate a broad response from immune system proteins called neutralizing antibodies.
The antibodies fought off multiple variants of the hepatitis C virus in tests, suggesting the new vaccine should be effective even after the virus mutates, the researchers reported on Wednesday.
Neutralizing antibodies play a central role in most existing vaccines against other diseases, but harnessing them in hepatitis C has previously proved elusive. Work to date on therapeutic vaccines has focused on another immune system mechanism known as T-cells.

On Feb. 27 last year, small numbers of middle-class taxpayers gathered in 50 American cities to protest President Obama's $786 billion stimulus bill, signed into law without the bother of reading it. And the Tea Party movement was born. Organized in less than a week by conservatives on Twitter, the Tea Party movement has grown from political novices into a driving force that is rapidly changing the American political landscape. The fact that no one person is guiding that force seems to encourage some people, and especially the media, to appoint one. After her speech at the Tea Party Nation convention in Nashville, there was great speculation from the national media about whether Sarah Palin would be the leader of the Tea Party movement. After all, Palin is a known conservative with grass-roots energy and support who is largely in lockstep with the values of the movement. Others have alluded to former House Majority Leader Dick Armey as the leader of, or spokesperson for, the Tea Party groups around the country. But neither Palin nor Armey, nor anyone else for that matter, will ever lead or control the Tea Party movement. That's because it's not one body, but many locally organized groups, led by local people — like me, along with two others on the Dallas Tea Party steering committee. Each of us holds a full-time job and volunteers our time to the Tea Party movement. And while all the Tea Party groups share a number of common values and goals, no one group speaks for the others...more

Drowning in the rain
We had torrential rain here on Saturday. During the course of the day, a lady in our town looked out of her window and noticed a bucket in the middle of the garden next door.
Some time later the bucket caught her eye again, but this time she noticed some movement in it. Thinking that perhaps a bird or mouse had fallen in, she went to have a look and rescue it.
Instead of wildlife, imagine her horror when she found 8 tiny kittens in there. The bucket was rapidly filling with water, and two of the kittens had already drowned.
She was able to remove the remaining six, but one had become too cold and despite all attempts to save her, she too died shortly afterwards.
The five surviving kittens, who are about 5 weeks old, are friendly and used to being handled, so there is very little likelihood that the kittens were the offspring of a feral cat and put in the bucket by their mum. It seems to us that they were deliberately put in the bucket in the hope that they would drown.
This is such an act of unspeakable cruelty that it has left us almost speechless.

Oh my God, that's absolutely awful. I am so glad that lady found them and that they were rescued. There's no excuse for such cruelty when there are cat rescue centres who would try to take these little mites and find them good homes.

Just found this blog, can't beleive that one of those tiny baby's is my giant kitten Ralph, to think he could have been a goner is such an awful thought as he has brought so much more laughter into my life!

Kids & Co Preschool at Hurstville Grove has received an exceptional rating – a rare achievement nationwide.
Out of 14,687 education and care services Australia-wide, the preschool is one of 729 (five per cent) that received the rating that exceeded all standards within the framework set by the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority.
Kids & Co is a privately-operated service that caters for up to 25 children daily. It supports families in making the smooth transition to school.
It exceeded the Australian standards in every area assessed under the National Quality Framework, which sets a benchmark for the quality of children's education and care services.
Areas include educational program and practice, children's health and safety, physical environment, staffing arrangements, relationships with children, and collaborative partnerships with families and communities.
An 'exceeding' rating is given to centres that go above and beyond the requirements.
Kids & Co was described as contributing to a high quality learning environment for children through the organisation of educators, support staff, research and programming, and continued professional development.
Preschool director and early childhood teacher, Jennifer Koutoulas, says the result is uncommon.
"Small standalone private services do not have governance support, and are managed independently...so it's unusual for them to be rated so highly and it's difficult to get this result," she said.
But she says while the results give parents an understanding of how the preschool operates, the rating is mostly a recognition to staff's dedication to their work.
"This gives parents a better breakdown but most don't ask about it at a detailed level," she said.
"They prefer to get a sense and a feel for the place, but for us it's a level of acknowledgement."
The former Kindergarten teacher has a masters in early childhood – an industry she has worked in for 27 years.
She says having strong knowledge of the region's demographic has boosted the preschool's success.
"I'm Greek and have worked with refugee families, so I have an understanding the importance of creating a sense of belonging in a culturally diverse area where 60 per cent of our children are Chinese," she said.
"We learn Mandarin and really aim to have a sense of belonging.
"I'm very hands-on – always on the floor, and I like to get involved in ongoing research to keep informed of new practices that we can incorporate."

System Information
Blender Version
Broken: 2.78c
Short description of error
Only the active vertex group is copied to the destination mesh.
The manual states "By default this tool copies all vertex groups contained in the selected objects to the target object."
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Selecting the source mesh, then shift-selecting the destination mesh, then selecting Weight-Paint, and then pressing Transfer Weights.
I tested this with matching empty groups on the destination, and with no groups on the destination.
It's easy to see that only the source's active group is copied.
There is no way to select multiple or all groups on the source.

You've got to be one tough puppy to make it in Starfleet Academy. So when Nerdist wanted to recreate a scene from J.J. Abrams' 2009 Star Trek on their Alpha series Talkin' Toons, they needed a voice actor, not a doctor! And who better to fill in for Bones than the creator of Nickelodeon's T.U.F.F. Puppy, Butch Hartman!
Hartman, who also created The Fairly OddParents and Danny Phantom, joined host Rob Paulsen to talk about his long career in animation, and the two also read the scene when Karl Urban's Dr. Leonard McCoy first met Chris Pine's James Kirk. Rob filled in for Kirk as his character Carl Wheezer from Jimmy Neutron, and Hartman read for Bones as T.U.F.F. Puppy's stuttering scientist Keswick, who was voiced by Jeff Bennett on the show.
Normally on Talkin' Toons, guests read scenes in the style of characters they have voiced themselves, but since Hartman literally created the character and does such a good impression of him, they figured this would work just as well.
If you want to see the rest of this interview, along with all other episodes of Talkin' Toons, you can only watch them at Nerdist's online Alpha community. It's just one of our many great shows there, and if you're not already signed up your first 30 days are free when you join.
What other character from Butch Hartman's cartoons would you like to hear in the Academy? Fly into Nerdist's comments section and let them know!

Food Stamp Use Soars, and Stigma Fades
This article is about the need for Food Stamps, it says that the need for food stamps have growing at record highs. A program once scorned as a failed welfare scheme now helps feed one in eight Americans and one in four children. This article recognize the millions of jobs lost and major industries , Americans array of government aid- including unemployment insurance, food stamps and cash welfare- is being tested as never before. It is the worst economic crisis in decades it has grown so rapidly in places that in some places as ordinary as the groceries it buys. More than 36 million people use food stamps for staples like milk, bread, and other products to try to survive. It also says that many Americans income in near or below the federal poverty line, longtime recipients of welfare checks and workers whose reduced hours or slender wages leave pantries bare. It doesn't matter the size of the counties it says that is calculated half of the size of each county survive with food stamps. This article explains the record growing of food stamps in all the counties, the respond of the program has been tremendous. This is the most urgent time in our lifetime; with the exception of the Depression it's time to acknowledge there are hungry people.
Personally I think that this crisis is happened now, because the bad management that we had for the last few years in America. Now all we can do is try to survive this crisis. The big unemployment has caused many Americans to ask the Government for help. The Government is helping the American people with food stamps; this program is helping more Americans than ever. The depression is a very hard time for anybody; I think that the Government is doing a good job on helping the American people in this time of crisis. Food stamps don't get any American richer, but makes us all believe that better times would come.

Missy turned 15 months old last week (yes, I'm way behind). How crazy is that? She's getting so big and smart and capable, and leaving all traces of baby in the dust.
It was a busy and adventurous month. We went for hikes, visited Parc Olympique, and got kicked out of the house several times for Aba's interviews. She went to her first soccer match, though she didn't actually see much of it.
She's got lots of new words: stick, pear, peas, quesadilla, yogurt, stuck, pick up, blanket, dog/ruff-ruff, meow, go, breeze, boo, Bruce (as in Springsteen, who sings her lullaby every night), this/that, all done, ergo, sleep sack, bib, hat, shemesh (sun), keys, up, and goal! She's also getting awesome at following directions, like "give it to mama" and "go get your ball" and can identify a bunch of body parts and items of clothing.
Sleep has remained a challenge, perhaps more so this month, when she began teething molars. The ToothWatch 2015 count has risen by one (barely poking through the surface), with a second molar close behind. The heat has also made sleeping difficult in an apartment with no AC.
Missy loves going to the park and has just begun to climb the small stairs holding the railing (rather than crawling up), but she still makes me hella nervous on the play structure because she has no sense of fear when it comes to the drop-offs, whether it's a high step or a four-foot drop to the ground. Her favorite things to do are pick up "sticks" (usually wood chips, but sometimes larger ones, too) and watching the dogs that are usually running around, chasing after balls and sticks of their own.
She's been extra snuggly this month, which is awesome, and cuddles with her stuffed animals a lot, requesting blankets or laying them in my lap, along with her favorite fluffy friends. She also loves to put on hats and her bunny ears.
We've been coloring this month, now that she's not immediately putting everything in her mouth (though I do still have to remind her frequently to use the crayon on the paper, rather than eating it). She'll also use her sticks at the park to "draw" on the ground.
Oh! Probably my favorite thing is she started cleaning up this month! Like, actually picking things up off the floor and putting them (somewhat) where they belong: shoes in the shoe basket, toys and books on the shelf. It's amazing! Of course, she does it when she wants, and not when I ask her too, but baby steps.
Favorite things: Mommy and Aba, dogs, sticks, chicken, fruit, blankets, bunny ears, walking backwards, pretending to go bye-bye, snuggles, tickles, books, music, the cats, her tiny rocking chair.
Not-so-favorite things: sleeping in the heat and humidity, teething big fat molars!

Why it is great to wear your baby/toddler and See MY examples!
crunchimomma & Gluten-free nut! by Heather Spergel ♦ May 13, 2012 ♦ 2 Comments
I started using a sling when my son was born almost 6 yrs ago out of desperation to calm him. Thanx to Maria at the Postpartem Place, I bought one. I threw it across the room about 4 times before figuring it out. Over the years, my husband joked that a carrier was never truly mine unless I threw it good and far. Ha! He was right though. There was a learning curve for me. Once I got it though, I learned to nurse in the sling….shop, clean…whatever. Heck, fussy baby at night? I rocked him in the sling in the rocker. When I zonked off, I didn't drop the baby. Thank goodness for the sling.
I nursed carried Nathan in a sling until he was two and killed my back. I weighed barely 100 lbs and without going to the gym or working out,….not super strong.
When Gabi came along, I used my sling in the first day of her life. I even left the hospital with my baby in the sling. At almost 3, she sleeps in the sling still and rides on my back other days.
Why wear your baby in a sling or carrier??
Why do I babywear?
1. I can nurse on the go
2. I can calm a crying baby in moments
3. I can shop, hold my child, and leave without my hips hurting from holding out my hip (side note, strengthening the back and shoulders makes baby wearing easier too… not trying to make it sound EASY as pie).
4. I don't drop a sick child as I rock and nurse all night long (When Nate was a baby and got sick a few times, I rocked him and slept in the rocker)
5. I can mow the lawn (cotton in baby's ears) and still nurse or do a nap
6. I do not have to stop my day for a nap… nap on the go!
7. My baby (babies) are involved in day to day activities from MY view. Therefore they talk and get involved- they asked questions or point. They are not in a carrier on the floor, placed and forgotten
8. On vacation, my babies were used to napping in the sling, so no issues with sleeping in a weird place
9. Honestly, I could go on and on and on with this…
10. Because I LOVE the closeness and know that my children do too! … so leave me alone about it. haha!!
My favorite sling: http://www.mayawrap.com/
My second favorite carrier: http://babyhawk.com/
My third favorite carrier: http://www.becobabycarrier.com/
And drumroll… yes, he was a big baby, and at age two… asleep…
I faced the questions so many times that I cringed at… Do you STILL HOLD HIM/HER while he sleeps? Doesn't that HURT your back? When you put her DOWN?! Is she REALLY sleeping in there? With my first, I tried to answer to defend myself. NOW, nah. Why do I do it? Because I WANT to… so go find someone else to pick on… my kids are happy. So there!
What is YOUR favorite carrier/sling and favorite positions? How did you learn about babywearing?
Never tried? What is holding you back? GO FOR IT!

My son loved it, I can't remember the brand that I had, but I loved it. I carried him in it until he was about a year old and he was too heavy. My daughter, on the other hand, hated it. She didn't like the confinement. She's still like that, hates covers over her feet, towels around her arms, etc. It was such a drag that she hated it. I loved the freedom and convenience.

So wonderful that your son loved it! Sorry your daughter didn't take to it, but every child is certainly different… my daughter needed different positions and likes it in a different way than my son.

Oops, nearly the end of February already and my blogging is flagging. I have been busy though, that's my excuse.
Not only have actually been reading (another resolution you'll recall) – I've proofread a friend's book and read The Woman in Black (more on that in a later post), I've been out to see two comedians and a band this week!
From South Shields…
South Shields it seems is a hotbed of comedy at the moment – two comedians in one week from that neck of the woods!
I started the week with Chris Ramsey, an enjoyable comedian (I was one of those who'd 'been dragged along while not having a clue who he was' – though I wasn't going to raise my hand to admit this unlike someone further along our row). He did a bit of picking on the audience which I don't really like, but thankfully swiftly moved on to his main act 'Offermation' which was brilliantly observed and very funny.
Next up was Sarah Millican – she seems to have been riding the crest of a wave of popularity this last year or so. It's well-deserved, her show is a bit smutty, very funny and delightfully delivered. She describes herself as a 'bit more sweary' on stage – and she certainly is. I thought it was great how she managed to make you feel like it was an intimate show even when we were seated way up in the upper circle: so far away that there were actual binoculars up there.
…to Southend
Nowt like a good stomping hoedown in a great venue – here's looking at you, Cluny 2 – and you The Lucky Strikes. (The Strikes are from Southend)
I saw The Lucky Strikes at the Sage Gateshead Americana festival last year and thought they were superb. I then discovered that the lead singer, Matt Boulter knew my favourite singer-songwriter Simone Felice and had toured with him. It was all shaping up well.
Some Facebook chat, a free Christmas CD and I'm convinced The Lucky Strikes are worth a looksee, worth buying their albums, worth going to see. Last night at the Cluny2 was such good fun: I couldn't believe the manic dancing (from the audience) at the end. I could have been in Nashville: I was happy.
