Chinese Robot
Created by Chinese inventors, the robot has been designed to take away the stress for anxious drivers in tight parking places.
Dubbed 'Geta' (get a car), the laser-guided robot slides under your car to pick it up, finds a parking space in the lot and park the vehicle in the tightest places.
The impressive part is that this robot needs just two minutes to park a car with military precision, does not need tracks, has 360 degrees mobility and will use space better than people.
This intelligent parking robot finds spaces by transmitting signals to a computer containing a map which then directs the robot to an available place.
A new video has just emerged showing the amazing animatronic parking assistance in action.

LAKE FOREST, Ill., Nov. 7, 2012 -- Brunswick Boat Group (BBG) employees at its New York Mills, Minn., facility are celebrating a significant safety milestone - 1 million work hours without a lost-time incident. This Brunswick facility manufactures Lund and Crestliner boats and remarkably achieved this accomplishment amidst increasing production volumes and a steady influx of new employees over the past 12 months.
"Safety is a top priority at our New York Mills facility, and something we take very seriously at Brunswick," said Dirk Hyde, president, Lund Boats & New York Mills Operations. "Reaching this mark is a tremendous testament to our employees' professionalism as they continue to maintain and extend their abilities to work smartly and safely, all while meeting solid demand and producing the highest quality boats."
"Working safely is more than just some posters on a wall or an agenda item at an employee meeting. It is a way of life that we endeavor to practice both on and off the job," explained Price Taylor, vice president of operations at New York Mills. "We focused on not just looking out for ourselves as individuals, but also looking out for each other. All of the credit goes to our employees, our safety committee and those who lead our safety efforts."
BBG, a unit of Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC), has 550 employees at the New York Mills facility, up from 465 employees when the drive toward 1 million work hours without a lost-time incident began in late 2011.

Be a Champion for Families!
You care about families seeking healing from domestic abuse. You support DAP because of our work to end the cycle of abuse. Do you have friends who care about families too?
Then sign up as a table captain, invite your friends to our annual luncheon, and make it possible for every family who needs it finds healing at DAP.
It's that simple! Click here to sign up today!
So, what's a table captain?
As a table captain, you commit to filling a table of ten with your friends, family, and colleagues, and engaging them, in some way, to learn about the work of DAP before the luncheon (whether that is visiting our space, watching a video about DAP, sharing your own story of support, etc.) It is because of table captains that our luncheon is a success, and we can heal families struggling with domestic abuse.
I'm still not sure…
Believe it or not, it is easier than you think! Each year table captains share with us how fun and easy being a table captain truly is – guests are excited to be invited and are grateful to be involved in such an important cause.
You can also sign up to be a table captain with a friend – fill up a table or two with a joint effort. And, especially if this is your first year as a table captain, let us know – we will match you with a veteran table captain to be your buddy for this first year. They'll walk you through all the steps of the process.
"Any table captain who has had friends that have attended the luncheon in previous years should consider asking those friends if they would be willing to sponsor a table. This is the best way that I know of to expand the base of donors, educate new people about DAP's services and ensure that DAP will continue to be available for those who need their support." – Mickey, veteran table captain
The luncheon is always more powerful when people attend who are somewhat familiar with DAP and the families who have benefited from DAP services, as well as the ones who need services today and tomorrow.
Signing up to be a table captain now means that you have time to invite people to the luncheon early and often! After you sign up, DAP staff will communicate with you easy messages and activities to share with potential luncheon guests. It's all part of growing our community of support for ending the cycle of abuse.
Start thinking now about your personal story – your friends will be moved by why you care about the work of DAP.
Click here to sign up today. Or if you'd like to learn more about becoming a table captain, email Urszula Parfieniuk at email@example.com

'Aukai 'Imiloa
Rigorous Academic and Experiential Activities for 8-12 Graders
'Aukai 'Imiloa, is a yearlong pilot program for student's grades 8-12 focusing on Wayfinding and Navigation through rigorous academic and experiential activities. Centered on a theme of exploration, students will learn about navigation through hands on workshops, specialized training sessions, and sailing aboard deep-sea voyaging canoes.
Cultural Practice + Science
While navigation remains a cultural practice for indigenous island people, the basis of this traditional art as performed by today's generation of navigators is grounded in math, science, and technology. 'Aukai 'Imiloa will engage students by connecting them to the science, math, and technology that will make them successful Wayfinders and Navigators, while providing them lessons in leadership and stewardship in an environment that will stimulate them intellectually, and challenge them physically.
As they learn about voyaging on canoes they will be encouraged to make connections to modern voyages of exploration in space and come to know the common spirit that all explorers share. Lastly students will learn about teamwork and how to build the necessary habits that foster friendship and the healthy relationships essential for survival aboard a canoe or living within a community.

The votes are in, and it looks like 'Vulcan' could be the new name for one of Pluto's smallest moons. After weeks of online ballot casting by people around the world, the poll asking the public to name two of Pluto's moons — currently called P4 and P5 — ended today (Feb. 25).
"174,062 votes and Vulcan came out on top of the voting for the naming of Pluto's moons. Thank you to all who voted! MBB," wrote Shatner via Twitter.
Unsurprisingly perhaps, Vulcan and Cerberus have come out as the top names in the vote to decide what to call the two Pluto moons that haven't been officially named yet. The fourth and fifth moons of Pluto, discovered in recent years, are designated as P4 and P5 and need new names. SETI Institute and Mark Showalter, who discovered P5, are preparing to propose names for the moons to the International Astronomical Union and asked people to vote or make suggestions. After 450,000 votes, Vulcan came out as the clear favorite with 174,000 votes. While Vulcan is the name of a Roman god, the god of fire, lava and volcanoes, as is required, it got picked because of its connection with Star Trek, Vulcan is the home planet of Spock. In fact, it was Captain James Kirk himself that proposed the name, it was not part of the first batch of names put forward. Cerberus was the second most voted name with close to 100,000 votes. There are no guarantees that these are the two names that will be proposed or that they will be picked by the IAU. The whole process will take a couple of more months.

Allthough I like both names, the S.T. planet Vulcan always appeared very large to me.
The Vulcan god is the god of fire. Is there much fire action happening on either of the 2 moons?
In fact I am assuming the word volcano was derived from the name Vulcan.
I don't know about Cerberus.
Maybe it looks like multiple heads.edit on 26-2-2013 by azureskys because: add on

The math doesn't add up.
Assuming the monetary value of your attention is equal to your professional rate of pay, marketers are getting your attention for much less than your employers are.
Let me explain by way of a little thought experiment.
According to Salary.com, the median salary for American IT managers is $89,900, which is an hourly rate of $43.22 per hour or 72 cents a minute. If you're an IT manager right in the middle of the national pay spectrum, you can reasonably assume your attention is worth 72 cents per minute.
So if you have to sit through a 15-second ad to watch a video, the video site has gotten you to pay them something worth 18 cents.
OK, stay with me here. Assume you watch an average of one video per day on a site that monetizes with those 15-second ads. That means you'll pay $65.70 per year (in attention) for those "free" ad-supported videos.
You'd probably never pay, say, a whopping $50 per year to watch ad-free videos. But if you did, you'd come out $15.70 ahead. Theoretically. Yet you probably wouldn't pay $20 or even $10 per year for ad-free videos.
I realize that this whole exercise is open to challenge. Of course, if you watch those videos at work, you're still being paid by the company so the video is free, etc.
And watching a video ad even with time off doesn't decrease your salary, so you're offering up your unpaid free time, etc.
The point is that your attention is worth something. Yet we act like it's worth nothing. We act like free services are free, rather than paid for with our incredibly valuable attention.
I would argue that your attention is worth more to you even than your company pays you for it.
With the industry growing ever more sophisticated about forcing us to pay attention to advertising, it's time for us to reevaluate the value of our time and attention.
For starters, we might want to become more agreeable to services we can pay money for in exchange for an environment free of advertising.
Your attention is worth something, dammit! The advertising industry knows it. And so should you.
Don't let them just take it from you.

Halfway through our interview, Joe Swift veers dangerously close to seriousness. He is talking about the Chelsea Flower Show, where this year, for the first time, he was a competitor rather than a commentator. After more than a decade in front of the camera, explaining gardens for the BBC-viewing public, he finally made one himself. Sponsored by Homebase for Teenage Cancer Trust, it was a striking space in which four cedar frames gave structure to imaginative planting, with rough-textured bark offsetting deep burgundy irises and copper water features. Visitors loved it, and the judges gave him a gold medal; a welcome surprise.
"I wanted to prove to myself that I hadn't turned into this person that people saw me as, and that I could do a garden with real depth," he says. "The gold was very nice. I always knew that I had it in me, but it was nice… yeah…" He trails off as he senses he is straying into earnest waters.
"Then again, I'm just the bald bloke on Gardeners' World, aren't I?"
This is the Joe Swift most viewers know, full of wisecracks, glottal stops and sensible horticultural advice, who conceals a sharp mind with a blokey manner. "I do have days when I turn up tired and grumpy, but it tends not to make great telly, so I try not to let it show." Away from the main gig, he writes, talks and runs Modular Garden, a company which focuses on practical, rather than highfalutin design.
More recently, he's become an internet hit with "Three Men Went to Mow", a series of YouTube videos made with fellow designers James Alexander-Sinclair and Cleve West. As gardening television goes, they are anarchic: in one clip Alan Titchmarsh chases the three men around the Chelsea Flower Show, desperate to join their gang.
West and Alexander-Sinclair both have long experience of Chelsea, and were apprehensive about their chum's debut. "I think they were a bit apprehensive at first," says Swift. "But then the frames arrived and they started to say 'you know, I think this might be OK', to which I replied 'yes guys, thanks, I have actually thought about it, it isn't completely random.' I was on the plot next to Cleve, which was helpful. But I wasn't really nervous. I haven't gone down the garden-designing route because the people with enough money to let you do a proper garden tend to be very controlling. But I've always had a strong aesthetic sense, and from years of standing in show gardens for telly I know how they work."
He proved his planting chops, too. "Some of the iris exhibitors from the pavilion looked at my bearded irises and said 'that's exactly how they're supposed to be grown, with lots of space and a gravelly base.' 'Thanks very much,' I said.
"Chelsea was great, but left me shattered. I can see how winning a gold medal could become an obsession, but now that I've got one there's no way I'd go back next year. Plus I'm never going to win Best in Show, because Cleve always wins that."
It's tempting to see Swift's mix of telegenic good humour and thoughtfulness as a reflection of his parentage. His father is Clive Swift, the actor best known for his part as Richard, long-suffering husband of Hyacinth Bucket, in Keeping Up Appearances. His mother is Margaret Drabble, the novelist and academic, and his siblings are an academic and a lawyer.
"My parents separated when I was very young," he says "so I saw Dad mostly at the weekends, when we'd go to the Arsenal together. But I definitely get my sense of humour from that side of the family; a strong Jewish sense of humour." Being the son of famous parents never affected him. "Once at Highbury the people around us starting singing 'There's only one Richard Bucket,' but that's about it. It didn't catch on."
The academic inheritance from his mother's side of the family was less obvious. "There was certainly a lot of typing going on in the house when I was growing up," he says. "But I was never much of a reader. I was busy – I was in a band, I went to art college, I went on a kibbutz in Israel. But I never wanted to go to university, and frankly I didn't have the A-levels. But it wasn't really rebellion. Or if it was, it was rebellion against a family that was impossible to rebel against. Whatever I'd do, my mum would just say 'oh, that's nice dear', and carry on."
After a series of odd jobs he started working for a landscape design company, and took a course at the English Gardening School in Chelsea. His first makeover was of his mother's garden in Hampstead, which backed onto John Keats's old house. Broadcasting offers followed soon after.
His new series mixes a serious message with all the joshing. In The Flowerpot Gang, he teams up with Anneka Rice and former England cricketer Phil Tufnell. In each episode, the slightly improbable bunch sets about transforming an unpromising site into a community haven. Each has a different role. "Anneka's brilliant at drumming up support. If we were short of manpower she'd go off and come back with the local rugby club, or the Territorial Army. Tuffers is more of a people person. He can talk to anybody."
The team created spaces for a dementia home in Sheffield, a young carers' centre in Sunderland, a community garden in Poplar and a schools' garden in Bristol.
"It's very important," he says. "And there does seem to be a bit of a movement at the moment. Ten or 15 years ago it was all about Ground Force, and people putting in decking. But properties are getting smaller and smaller, and the idea of having a private garden is fading.
"Community gardening is about coming together, so what we're doing has far more reach than just designing one or two posh people's gardens."
Of course, the less positive aspects of television exist whatever the subject. "If you put yourself up on screen you're going to be called names. At a garden show I once heard these two old biddies talking to each other over the microphone. 'You've just missed that Joe Swift,' one said. 'Oh good I can't stand him,' said the other. And I still get called a mockney. But you have to be able to take it. It's just human nature that some people will like you and others won't. If you start getting too precious about it all you lose that sense of humour. It's important to be able to take the ---- out of yourself. But I guess the Chelsea garden showed I'm not all laughs."
The Flowerpot Gang starts on Wednesday on BBC One at 8pm

RICHLAND -- Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in Richland is developing a compact reactor system that would produce hydrogen from liquids derived from biomass.
It recently received a $2.2 million grant from the Department of Energy to advance the project, as part of $20 million awarded to 10 new research and development projects for technologies to produce and deliver hydrogen.
DOE selected technologies that could help meet a goal of producing, delivering and dispensing hydrogen at a cost less than the equivalent of $4-per-gallon gasoline.
The PNNL project, led by engineer Wei Liu, would require oils made from materials including switchgrass, wood chips and corn stover. Most industrial hydrogen today is created from natural gas.
Hydrogen is used in fuel cells, which generate electricity using hydrogen and oxygen from air. Because the only byproducts are heat and water, fuel cells offer a way to create energy for vehicles and buildings with dramatically reduced emissions.
Fuel cells are becoming more common in a variety of applications, such as in warehouses where they might be used to power forklifts, as back-up energy sources in buildings and cell towers and for cars and buses.
A few hydrogen-filling stations are available to the public, with most, if not all, of the stations in the western United States in California. California has passed legislation to build up to 100 new stations.
With conventional technology, a system is needed to move fuel from central manufacturing facilities to stations.
However, the small size of the reactor system proposed by PNNL -- equivalent to about two small barrels in size -- makes it possible to produce the hydrogen almost anywhere. That would eliminate the need for large manufacturing facilities and an extensive distribution network.

Confront and Conceal: Obama's Secret Wars and Surprising Use of American Power
On the last day of June of this year, a tech website called Redmond Pie posted two articles in quick succession that, on their face, had nothing to do with each other. The first, with the headline "Root Nexus 7 on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, Unlock Bootloader, And Flash ClockworkMod Recovery," was a tutorial on how to modify the software—mainly in order to gain control of the operating system—in Google's brand-new tablet computer, the Nexus 7, a device so fresh that it hadn't yet shipped to consumers.
The second headline was slightly more decipherable to the casual reader: "New OS X Tibet Malware Puts in an Appearance, Sends User's Personal Information to a Remote Server." That story, which referred to the discovery of a so-called "Trojan horse" computer virus on certain machines in Tibet, pointed out that Apple computers were no longer as impervious to malicious viruses and worms as they had been in the past and that this attack, which targeted Tibetan activists against the Chinese regime, was not random but political. When the Tibetan activists downloaded the infected file, it would secretly connect their computers to a server in China that could monitor their activities and capture the contents of their machines. (The Redmond Pie writer speculated that the reason Apple computers were targeted in this attack was that they were the preferred brand of the Dalai Lama.)
In fact, the Nexus 7 story and the Tibetan Trojan horse story were both about the same thing: hacking and hackers, although the hacking done by the Nexus 7 hackers—who contribute to an online website called Rootzwiki—was very different from that done by the crew homing in on the Tibetan activists. Hacking and hackers have become such inclusive, generic terms that their meaning, now, must almost always be derived from the context. Still, in the last few years, after the British phone-hacking scandal, after Anonymous and LulzSec, after Stuxnet, in which Americans and Israelis used a computer virus to break centrifuges and delay the Iranian nuclear project, after any number of identity thefts, that context has tended to accent the destructive side of hacking.
In February, when Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg observed in his letter to potential shareholders before taking the company public that Facebook embraced a philosophy called "The Hacker Way," he was not being provocative but, rather, trying to tip the balance in the other direction. (He was also drawing on the words of the veteran technology reporter Steven Levy, whose 1984 book Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution was the first serious attempt to understand the…

The Scientific Revolution resulted from a monumental series of discoveries, especially those in astronomy and related fields, in the 16th and 17th centuries. The impact of these discoveries went far beyond the walls of the laboratory—it created a genuine revolution in the way Western people thought about the world. Participants in this institute will study how the revolution in science and technology was directly linked to revolutions in religion, politics, and society. They will read selections from Kepler, Galileo, and Newton, and see examples of the books they published to spread their ideas.

One protester was carrying a placard that read "behead those who insult the Prophet".

This is what I surely didn't want to see here in Oz. Notice the sign supporting beheading those who insult the prophet?
Either these maggots have been let into our country legally or they have sleezed their way in here through illegal imigration or they have been gotten to by some other lousy muzzie maggot. Do I have hatred towards them. Bl00d oath. Well at least maybe the powers that be will keep their slimy pictures on file now and keep a close eye on them. Time to keep Australia for the Aussies and to send ALL, even those born here over to a backward country where they can kill each other off. That way they won't be using up our air. And to the maggot that called me a bigot on another thread over my view, this shows I was RIGHT So why don't you go over to one of those countries too.

I have to disagree with you there. Not all Muslims are like this. What we're seeing is extremist behaviour.
Example: My mother is a Christian, and she hates the Westboro Baptist Church and what they do. Hence, not all Christians act in the way as the Christian extremist Westboro Baptist Church does.

Have you actually seen the video that caused all of this?
Waste of time and energy watching it let alone protesting it IMO.
I think the actual Australian Muslims today are experiencing what I was experiencing when I turned on the T.V and saw the Cronulla riots in 2005 - shame by association.
The last thing the world needs is more ignorance. The people protesting may be citizens born in Aus for all we know. Any sweeping generalization just adds to the level of ignorance already being displayed, and makes an unnecessary scapegoat out of something.
It looks to me like any protest that turns violent, is a result of brain dead people whose ignorance regarding the people directly responsible for the situation they are protesting about, completely alludes them.edit on 15-9-2012 by Noinoi because: Fixed embedded youtube link.

Updated | Prime Minister announces review of hate crimes
Lawrence Gonzi asks justice minister to seek consultation on hate crimes to include sexual orientation.
Updated at 3:01pm, adds reaction by MGRM coordinator Gabi Calleja.
The Prime Minister announced this afternoon in an impromptu press conference that the government will be legislating against hate crimes motivated by homophobia.
Lawrence Gonzi said he has asked minister for justice Chris Said to initiate a review and strengthening of current laws, and make the necessary consultation to take the necessary legal steps.
A bill to amend various acts in the Criminal Code, presented in parliament last year, already proposes adding homophobia to the extenuating circumstances for any crime, and increases the gravity of such a hate crime to two degrees. The hate crimes in the Criminal Code were last updated in 2009, to include xenophobia as a hate crime.
But the Malta Gay Rights Movement recently met Chris Said to discuss additions to the criminal code amendments.
Lawrence Gonzi's announcement today comes on the heels of two attacks on gay women that highlighted the absence of proper legislation against such crimes. He took no questions from the press during the five-minute press conference.
Yesterday, gay activist Cyrus Engerer, a former PN local councillor, also said one of the PN's electoral promises in 2008 was to include sexual orientation as part of the remit for the national equality agency, the NCPE.
Lawrence Gonzi today said the recent attacks - one on a gay couple in Hamrun, and the other on a gay woman at a bus stop by an off-duty bus driver - were very preoccupying and necessitated government action. "We should be a society that respects persons, irrespective of their sexual orientation. I have always dedicated myself to the pursuit of this respect for people's dignity, and I am worried of certain attitudes taken by a section of society.
"We are sending a message to society in general, not to pass judgement of people, and that we expect the forces of law to enforce laws and eliminate all forms of discrimination," Gonzi said.
In comments to MaltaToday, MGRM coordinator Gabi Calleja said the fact there was this call for concern by the prime minister was a positive development.
"The government has been silent on these matters while other NGOs have been vocal about discrimination against gay people," Calleja said.
Asked what sort of action she expected from the prime minister's call against discrimination, Calleja said that apart from legal changes there was a need for better education in schools that recognised the reality of same-sex relationships, and for government to recognise same-sex couples in its policy.
Human Rights First, an American advocacy organization based in Washington, went as far as to symbolically 'fail' Malta in a mock report card, intended to measure the adequacy of national legislation when it comes protecting vulnerable minorities.
The card notes that Maltese legislation stops short of recognising hate crimes (regardless of motive) as a specific category of offence; and that while religion, race and disability are all listed as aggravating factors in specific common crimes, there is no mention whatsoever of sexual orientation.

Primitive Modernists: Luther Dickinson and the North Mississippi Allstars
Primitive modernism is the phrase that Jim Dickinson uses to characterize the music of the North Mississippi Allstars. This description proves quite apt as the band refracts the sounds of its native hill country through contemporary musical idioms, techniques and gear. The exuberant results can be found on 51 Phantom the trio's sophomore release which Dickinson produced. 51 Phantom builds on the ideas of Shake Hands With Shorty yet casts them into a new context as while the former release focussed on interpreting others artists' music, this disc presents the band's original material. Incidentally, Dickinson's intimate connection to the music extends beyond the mixing board, as the legendary pianist and producer is also the father of guitarist Luther and his younger brother drummer Cody.
In speaking with Luther Dickinson it is quite clear that he embraces and embodies the multiple worlds evoked by the term primitive modernism. He grew up in juke joints and went on to produce Othar Turner's Everybody Hollerin' Goat, a release that captured Turner's fife and drum music at his Tate County, Mississippi farm. Yet as a teenager Luther also was drawn to the music of SST bands and currently counts himself a Spiritualized fan as well as a devotee of urban radio.
The following conversation bounds through these topics, as well as regional musical variances, side projects, and Mr. Rogers even makes a guest appearance. The Allstars near-perpetual tour continues in December and January (broken up in part by some gigs with John Mesdeki and Robert Randolph as the Word). A full tour itinerary and the latest NMAS news is available at www.nmsallstars.com.
DB- Your band's name and its style references a particular region of the country. I'd like to hear to what extent do you think pockets of musical regionalism still thrive in the United States.
LD- If you want to talk about MTV music there's none. I don't know where those guys are from but they all sound alike. But I'll tell you where regionalism is still super strong and at the forefront is hip-hop. You have east coast/west coast, you have the dirty south and even in the dirty south Memphis rap is completely different from Atlanta rap from the ATL which is completely different from Louisiana rap. I listen to a lot of r&b radio especially at home where there's a lot of good stations. So I see regionalism in rap music but not in rock music.
DB- What about variations within the blues? You grew up hearing music in juke joints.
LD- The main juke joint I grew up gong to was Junior Kimbrough's on highway 4 and it's gone. Junior died and they kept it going for a few years and then it burned down. Nothing's been able to take its place. Junior's was a beautiful place and the real wonderful part about where we live is the interracial mingling. Junior's, during the time I was there, was full of older people, the local community who grew up listening to him, the real patrons of the juke joint. Then you'd have young musicians like us but the best thing was you'd have these 18, 19 year old girls from Ole Miss, the college down in Oxford, Mississippi. They were too young to get into bars but they'd be at Junior's dancing with the old guys. That was a beautiful, beautiful thing. It was just harmony.
But now Junior's is gone. We're going to play a blues joint in Clarksdale this weekend and that's going to be fun but besides that there's only Othar Turner's picnic that he has once a year. That is a great, great thing and part of that is just like the old days I would imagine. There's definitely more white folks but that's Othar's whole trip, everybody's invited- bring your kids, it's going to be a respectful party and that's part of his whole vision of life.
DB- How did you meet Othar?
LD- The first time I was ever exposed to him was when I really young. My dad and I used to watch Mr. Rogers and he and Jessie Mae Hemphill did a segment on the show. They played and my dad said, "That's Othar Turner, he lives down the street." So I've always been aware of him since I was a little kid. Then there was this festival in Memphis that we grew up playing, we'd play every year with my father when we were young kids. Othar and his family would also play and that's how I got to know him.
DB- Were you blown away that your neighbor appeared on Mr. Rogers?
LD-Well I was young. I'm not sure I could fully appreciate it beyond the fact that he was our neighbor and he made music.
DB- How did you come to produce Everybody Hollerin' Goat [the first Othar Turner release]?
LD- It was recorded over a long period of time and parts of it really document our friendship growing and blossoming. The stuff where it's us sitting on the porch and R.L. Boyce and I are singing, that was really a special time.
DB- Did you intend to produce a disc from the start?
LD- Well I had this little high-8 video camera and I would always just take it down there. In the back of my mind I was thinking about some kind of project but what I was doing was unusable except for the audio. About a third of the record was recorded on that video camera over the years. Then it got to a certain point where we took some real equipment down there and recorded the majority of it outside, at his farm.
DB- Were you surprised by the critical acclaim [Rolling Stone named it one of the five essential blues releases of the 90's]?
LD- It's always a pleasant surprise and reassuring when something is responded to well. But Othar at the time was almost 90 and he hadn't put out a record yet. He deserved a record. He was working towards it his whole life, so he was worthy of it.
DB- Let's move to your own music which references the sounds of your home terrain even in the band's name. I'm curious though, what led you to focus your initial disc on cover songs?
LD- We'd been doing shows for two a half a years and we'd been on the road for a year. We had all this material worked up, regional songs from around the area. We really started out playing a lot of Fred McDowell and over the years we picked up R.L. Burnside and then we became more interested in Junior Kimbrough's music. There was just a lot of hill country music we were playing every night and with Shorty our main aspiration was to record the music we play every night and make a record of what we are. Part of that was to take a traditional song but play it crazy- put a hip-hop beat to it or put a breakdown in there or a heavy metal guitar, just anything from any of our influences.
We had songs back then and a few of the songs on the second record we could have put on the first like "Up Over Yonder" and "Storm." We didn't think about it on Shake Hands with Shorty because we had a ton of material from the hill country we were playing. We were trying to whittle that down, we just wanted to show what our roots were and what we were about as a band with the idea that we would move ahead in the future.
On 51 Phantom we wanted to write our own songs in the vein of the hill county. Even a song like "Snakes In My Bushes" which is a pretty hard rocking song, if you take it down to an acoustic guitar is a combination of Fred McDowell and Junior Kimbrough. It's just the production we use and our style makes it sound more modern.
DB- Given that, how do you respond when people characterize your music as blues?
LD- I think people have to put it into a category so they can put it away in their brain but it doesn't matter to me. The category I'm most comfortable with is we're a rock and roll band. I never claimed to be a blues band. Even with Shake Hands with Shorty we weren't doing traditional blues music. Over the past twenty years there have been people who liked to do old style s of blues to keep that alive but that's not really what I'm into. Sometimes people ask me if we did a particular song to makes the hardcore blues people happy and I say, "Hell no, we do what we want to do." That's our motto, we do what we want to do when we want to do it."
DB- That approach and the word hardcore you just mentioned, reminds me, you used to have a hardcore band right?
LD- We had a loud, youthful band. When I was twelve to fifteen, Black Flag was my favorite band and that whole SST scene. But I was also digging Hendrix and later I got into the Allman Brothers.
DB- So I would imagine it must have been pretty cool as a teenager to play on a Replacements album [Pleased To Meet Me].
LD- That was great man. They were recording in Memphis and my dad was producing it. This was back in the 80's and they wanted this one song, "Shooting Dirty Pool," to have comical, timely heavy metal licks- some whammy bar and finger tapping, So dad told them about me and they invited me up there it was pretty fun.
DB- When you were growing up did you watch your father work quite a bit?
LD- He wouldn't take us to work all the time but sometimes he'd take a tape home and we'd listen . In the 80's he did a lot of movie music for Ry Cooder and he would be gone for a month at a time. Then he'd come home and we'd listen to the tape and he'd tell us about the movie and we'd go see it a couple months later. What really was an inspiration to us was my father had a band in Memphis called Mud Boy and the Neutrons and as young kids we go see them play all the time and that was so much fun.
DB- Was it odd having him in there producing the disc?
LD- It was great. Of course we'd worked together a lot in the past, and we've been through the rebellious stage and the learning stage. Our philosophy was we did the first one ourselves so we did the second for him and whatever he wanted we would try. We were real easy going and it went well. It helps having a good producer because you can just worry about getting your songs together and performances and not be so worried about the finished product. You don't have to concern yourself with how this is going to fit or how are we going to finish this or that take wasn't good enough because he all that covered. He brought a lot out of us. We were willing to try whatever we wanted to do and it went smooth . At one point Cody was worried it would be too mellow but I think he saw there were enough rock songs on there.
DB- Agreed. Which of the songs on the album really stands out for you?
LD- I like "Snakes In My Bushes" a lot because I think it sounds real modern and rocking and loud but I like the ballads too. What's been fun lately is playing those songs live, working them into the live set because some of those songs are so new we hadn't played them live. "51 Phantom" seems to be a good dance song, it's up tempo and everybody's boogying. But "Circle in the Sky" is slow and nasty and that has a real cool effect on the crowd.
DB- The title track references an actual highway near your home?
LD- Highway 51 is the one we grew up on that runs through the hill country north and south. We grew up running up and down that highway and that song is really about living on the road which is definitely what we've been doing (laughs).
DB- Along those lines, how do you structure your live sets?
LD- The only decision we ever make is what we're going to play first. Occasionally Cody will feel something and he'll kick it but usually I'm just kind of planning ahead and feeling what's going to go next . Of course we have songs that connect to one another. Pretty much we still play everything very night, nearly all of Shake Hands with Shorty and all of the new record. Sometimes we don't do the ballads because we've been rocking so hard and people are dancing and you don't want to break the energy.
DB- You mention dancing. Is that your preferred manner of audience expression?
LD- Oh no, we don't discriminate. R.L. Burnside says, "Blues ain't nothing but dance music," and that's really what we have taken from it. We just try to put a positive energy out and have a good time. Our music is not very melodramatic or anything. But we'll let everyone do with it what they will.
DB- I've seen your music described as primitive modernism, what do you think of that?
LD- I like that a lot. My dad came up with that phrase the first time I ever heard it. To me that totally sums up the hill country blues experience. The delta blues, the Chicago blues, the Memphis blues, those things are long gone, they're things of the past but R.L. Burnside is still down there. He's doing a show tomorrow night in Oxford, Mississippi. In his band he's 75, Kenny Brown is like 45 and Cedric [Burnside, R.L.'s grandson] is 24. Cedric will look you in the eye and tell you he's a blues man and then he'll bust out a freestyle rap or some Stevie Wonder and I just think there's a vibrant community of musicians in Mississippi. And hill country blues is primitive , some of it is more primitive than delta blues ever was. Robert Johnson was an extremely sophisticated musician but R.L. Burnside takes everything down and Fred McDowell would take all the chord changes out. That's also why a record like Come On In [by R.L. Burnside] was able to be made where there's a combination between trance/electronica kind of music and this style of blues.
DB- Let's move on and talk about the Word which is touring the west coast in January.
LD- Yeah its gonna be great
DB- What do you think you learned from that first run of shows that you can bring to bear this time out?
LD- [laughs] I'm not sure because it's pretty loose arrangement-wise. Even when we did the record we just got together, learned a song and played it. We didn't even count it off, we just played it and we're lucky the engineer recorded it.
DB- Your fellow Wordmate Robert Randolph has had quite a year.
LD- I love Robert. I think he's great and he really has had a hell of a year. The first time we met was at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City and we invited him to open up for us. I think he'd played one bar before that but this was a full-on packed theater crowd. I hope we didn't ruin his life [laughs]. Ever since then we've had the same booking agent, he's out on the road and he loves it. It's been great to watch him over this year and I think he's a wonderful talent and a good friend of mine
DB- It must be pretty entertaining for you to introduce music to him. He hadn't heard Hendrix, right?
LD- Yeah, exactly. He knew nothing about secular music. He just recently got turned on to James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone, and it goes on and on. He learned "Voodoo Child" from Stevie Ray Vaughan's version. So yeah, it's cool. It's really a lot of fun, like Hendrix. I love turning him on to Hendrix because he's still the master.
DB- And the following month you'll be out with JoJo Hermann.
LD- We help him do his solo stuff because Panic writes as a unit. It's not the type of band where he just brings a song in. So we made one record and we recorded a second record and it's even better than the first. So yeah, we're going to do a tour in February and that's going to be fun.
DB- Were you a Beanland fan growing up?
LD- I was a huge Beanland fan and that was just right at the period of time when I was starting to get out and party. They're my personal psychedelic southern rock band. They were hugely influential and George Mcconell is a great, great guitar player.
DB- Well it must be satisfying performing and recording with some of that group's members.
LD- Yeah, it's been so nice. All the projects we do kind of stem from friendships. Like The Word, we got to know John back in 98 and we always wanted to do a project together and it finally happened. JoJo we've known for a long time and he finally called us. Actually the first time we worked with him about three or four years ago, we did some demos down at Fat Possum of some songs he had written and one of them was "Dyin' Man," which later turned up on the Panic record totally different, same lyrics.
DB- Since this is the end of the year listmaking season, I'd like to hear some of your favorite releases from 2001.
LD- I don't listen to all that much contemporary music but I'll tell you a band that I really like is the English band Spiritualized. The latest record is a great record, real orchestral. It's kind of like a Phil Spector or Brian Wilson-type record and I really like that a lot. I enjoy the live Radiohead which came out recently and the live Galactic. Robert put out a CD that I like We're all still waiting on Oasis' next record, we're big fans of theirs. I haven't heard the Deep End yet, Gov't Mule's record but I'm looking forward to that. Man, this year I've been listening to a lot of New Orleans music. I grew up on Dr John but a lot of Earl King and the Meters. I've been doing some gigs on the side with George Porter and Johnny Vidacovich. Johnny is an older, cool cat from New Orleans. He's Stanton's friend and teacher. Man, playing with those guys is fun.
DB- What sort of stuff do you play?
LD- We just kind of make it up. We'll play a couple of songs, every once in a while we'll throw in a song here or there but pretty much it's improvising for two sets. It really is a lot of fun. As much as the Memphis legacy and the hill country has such a great community of musicians, there's a wonderful community of musicians down there too. Every region has its own traditions, styles, tunes and legends. I was very happy they invited me to come down and play.
DB- Some people might be surprised that a few of the picks you named were from quintessential British pop bands.
LD- Some of them I grew up listening to, lost interest in and then got back into. That was definitely the case with Oasis. But Radiohead and Spiritualized, I've been a fan of theirs throughout. The people over there are real ambitious when it comes to production and what they're trying to do and it's definitely fun to keep up with it. I might have grown up listening to Spiritualized but I was also listening to Howlin' Wolf and Rage Against the Machine at the same time as James Brown and John Coltrane. I think that all of it eventually finds its way into our own music.

10th Anniversary Screening of "Bending Space" Sun., Oct. 9th @ 8pm, Carolina Theatre of Durham
I'm very happy to celebrate Georges Rousse's 2006 transformative public art project in Durham with a 10th Anniversary screening of Bending Space: Georges Rousse and the Durham Project on Sunday, October 9th @ 8pm at the Carolina Theatre of Durham.
Bending Space holds a special place in my filmmaking heart and in my 'catalogue' of artist docs. I like to say it's aged like a fine wine. The film is a great snapshot of Downtown Durham just before the boom, a time when restaurants and bars were scarce and parking spaces plentiful. The film also captures an inspirational story about the power of public art and celebrates the creative process of visionary French photographer/installation artist Rousse. A decade after Penelope Maunsell and I documented Rousse's project and produced Bending Space, much has changed in Durham. The film is a catalyst for dialogue about the relationships and tensions between the arts and development in a rapidly changing urban landscape.
Tickets are $10.75 and available at the Carolina Theatre of Durham box office, 919.560.3030.
This special screening is presented by the CLICK! Photography Festival in partnership with the Southern Documentary Fund.

Connecting the Arts with Disability Rights
Kenny has written a piece reflecting on his film "A New Kind of Listening" for the Spring 2014 edition of South Writ Large.
South Writ Large is a quarterly online magazine that explores the culture of the changing South through its literature, art, music, psychology, and social patterns. The magazine grew out of the Global South Working Group, based at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where, beginning in 2007, authors, artists, psychoanalysts, historians, social scientists, documentarians, and other humanists have met regularly to share recent work and to discuss the dreams, history, symbols, art, music, migrations, transplants, and interactions that link the southern United States to the wider world.
From the Spring edition….
"I am the captain of my soul." ― William Ernest Henley
Confinement takes many forms, binding us physically, mentally, or emotionally. Our Spring 2014 issue looks at confinement in its broadest interpretation and examines the ways in which creative expression can open the door to healing or survival for some prisoners of the body or mind. We are inspired by the line above, from William Ernest Henley's poem Invictus, reiterated by Nelson Mandela when describing his ability to grow into the fullness of his humanity while imprisoned. Contributors to this issue explore the interplay of creativity and confinement in their own lives through written and artistic forms of expression, testifying to the power of self-expression to flourish in even the harshest of conditions.

A great week, good food, good company, good whisky! and great crew!
We take our passengers (couples, singles, and families) to the majestic west coast of Scotland: the Outer and Inner Hebrides and Argyll - beautiful, unspoiled coastlines of spectacular sea lochs, stunning Hebridean landscapes and incredible wildlife.
We anchor in the most sheltered, idyllic places, in some of Scotland's world famous islands such as Skye, St Kilda, Mull, Jura, Islay, Staffa and Iona where you can observe the wildlife, fish, swim in the sea lochs, visit famous malt whisky distilleries or just go ashore and explore.
We see incredible Scottish wildlife - soaring sea and golden eagles, basking sharks, minke and killer whales, porpoises, dolphins, myriads of seabirds and common and grey seals. We have even seen a breaching humpback whale!
We have just added a second small cruise ship to sail alongside our ex-tall ship St Hilda. Seahorse II will be joining us on our Scottish sea adventures from May 2018. Read more about her by clicking here.
Our two small cruise ships offer you a truly unique experience. People of all ages can learn about the sea but also find out about nature and explore the local marine environment while enjoying the exhilaration of cruising the wonderful west coast of Scotland on our classic, ex-tall ship, St Hilda and our sturdy, mini cruise ship, Seahorse II.
Our Scottish cruises will take you through a pristine environment, spectacularly rich in wildlife and breathtaking mountain and seascapes. A cruise aboard St Hilda or Seahorse II is truly a voyage of discovery.
Since we started St Hilda Sea Adventures, we have noticed increasing interest from our guests for extending our cruising range to visit the wild islands and remote anchorages of the Inner and Outer Hebrides. For easy access to these spectacular islands and lochs in 2018, we have decided to base ourselves out of Oban (Dunstaffnage Marina), the gateway to the Isles.
Book The Whole Boat
All our Sea Adventures are perfect for family cruising holidays in Scotland. Families and groups of friends often charter the whole boat. The school holidays book up very quickly: if you have a special date in mind, don't delay. We operate a system of flexible booking for small groups of friends and families who can choose the start date and length of trip, always assuming there is availability. Children especially enjoy fishing, sea kayaking, swimming, snorkelling, learning basic seamanship, hoisting the sails, rock pooling and the dinghy trips.
We receive fantastic feedback from our passengers who think that our Scottish cruises and our cruising areas offer something truly unique at very good value.
Also check out the independent reviews from our guests who book through Responsible Travel.
