An interview with John Grinder October 2008. Q1. What is the definition of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)?
Video Rating: 4 / 5
Creating Irresistible Influences with NLP, by Charles Faulkner is a 6 CD audio set that aims to teach people all about how to manage people in a way that others feel good about.
The premise of this series is really an old adage. When you give people what they want, they will give you what they want. This seems like common sense when you've lived life long enough to figure this out.
But many people resist this idea, feel that it's their way or no way, or simply don't know how to be a powerbroker in order to give people what they want in the first place.
The difference between manipulating someone, and influencing them: When people think that if they can control people and their outcomes by giving them what they want, their first thought might be that this is a manipulative practice.
Charles Faulkner challenges this notion. He challenges the listener to consider the idea that there is a difference between influencing others, and in manipulating others.
The truth is that the person, and the energy of those two concepts are different. As such, when you influence others, you leave them feeling empowered and good. Manipulating others makes them feel victimized and bad. Charles Faulkner in Creating Irresistible Influence wants you to become an influencer.
The five levels of the pyramid of influence: The series Creating Irresistible Influences teaches the listener exactly what this means, and how they can go about using the five levels of the pyramid of influence to their advantage. (more…)
"If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it."
-William Arthur Ward
How many of us live our lives according to others expectations?
How many of us have put our lives on hold to accommodate a spouse (current or past), our parents, our children, someone who is needier than us, for our job...
How many of us wander through life, with one day the same as the next with little passion for living or purpose in life?

New owner of the condo towers that's stands unfinished in Tempe, Arizona plans to turn them into luxury apartments to attract tenants in the property and in response to the state's economy. The new owner, Zaremba Group, with headquarters in Cleveland has recently purchased the unfinished condo towers — Centerpoint on Friday for $30 million.
Still because of the weak economy and high end condominiums, developers of the condo tower in Phoenix, Arizona plans to turn it into an apartment project. Chicago-based ST Residential acquired the property in June 2010, but only sold about 14 units.
Zaremba Group plans to rename the condo towers West Sixth, and then planned to turn them into 375 unit luxury apartments.
According to a report, in September 2010, Zaremba Group has previously showed interests in purchasing the condo towers, but because of some issues regarding its title insurer — Fidelity National Title Insurance Company, the company backed out on the deal in November.
The condo towers also went into foreclosure, and then auctioned off last April 2010, according to the Maricopa County Recorder's Office.
According to Zaremba's personal relations firm, the company's acquirement of the condo towers was difficult and concerned a lot of players, but the Zaremba has finally able to fix all the problems to complete the purchase.
Nancy Hormann, Downtown Tempe Community President said the company's purchase of the condo towers will have a positive effect on the city's economy and on Mill Avenue's business district.
The project's completion would be a major improvement for downtown Tempe, which is still struggling because of the economic downturn.
Construction on the condo towers into luxury apartments will start immediately for the Phase 1 and Phase 2 to accommodate residents by August and December.

|Robin Hobb
|Fitz and the Fool
'Fantasy as it ought to be written' George R.R. Martin Robin Hobb returns to her best loved characters with the second volume in a brand new series. Years ago, they freed a dragon from the glaciers on Aslevjal. Then they parted, the Fool returning to far-off Clerres, while Fitz finally claimed a wife, a family, and a home of his own. Now, betrayed and broken, the Fool has made his way back to the Six Duchies. But as Fitz attempts to heal his old friend in Buckkeep Castle his young daughter Bee is abducted from Withywoods by mysterious raiders who leave ruin and confusion in their wake. Fitz must rescue his beloved Bee. At the same time the Fool is determined that Fitz travel with him to Clerres to wreak vengeance. Fitz must grimly take up his assassin's tools once more, but will he also be forced to choose between saving his child and avenging his dearest friend?
'A little slice of heaven' GUARDIAN 'Robin's secret is not just in the detail with which she depicts the Six Duchies world she has explored over 20 years, but her emphasis on internal drama... the feelings of anguish, ambiguity, fear and failure are as familiar as those in a novel by Jonathan Franzen' Independent on Sunday 'Glorious and beautiful storytelling from Robin Hobb' SciFi Now 'Hobb seamlessly blends intrigue, action and characters who feel so real that they become more than words on a page ... Every second spent in her world is a privilege and a pleasure' SFX 'Robin Hobb's Fitz and the Fool series continues to delight' Starburst Magazine 'Another crowning career achievement in the lifetime of one of fantasy's modern-day masters' Fantasy Book Review
Robin Hobb is one of the world's finest writers of epic fiction.She was born in California in 1952 but raised in Alaska, where she learned how to raise a wolf cub, to skin a moose and to survive in the wilderness. When she married a fisherman who fished herring and the Kodiak salmon-run for half the year, these skills would stand her in good stead. She raised her family, ran a smallholding, delivered post to her remote community, all at the same time as writing stories and novels. She succeeded on all fronts, raising four children and becoming an internationally best-selling writer. She lives in Tacoma, Washington State.

Phases and interfaces from real space atomically resolved data: Physics-based deep data image analysis
Advances in electron and scanning probe microscopies have led to a wealth of atomically resolved structural and electronic data, often with ~1–10 pm precision. However, knowledge generation from such data requires the development of a physics-based robust framework to link the observed structures to macroscopic chemical and physical descriptors, including single phase regions, order parameter fields, interfaces, and structural and topological defects. Here, we develop an approach based on a synergy of sliding window Fourier transform to capture the local analog of traditional structure factors combined with blind linear unmixing of the resultant 4D data set. This deep data analysis is ideally matched to the underlying physics of the problem and allows reconstruction of the a priori unknown structure factors of individual components and their spatial localization. We demonstrate the principles of this approach using a synthetic data set and further apply it for extracting chemical and physically relevant information from electron and scanning tunneling microscopy data. Furthermore, this method promises to dramatically speed up crystallographic analysis in atomically resolved data, paving the road toward automatic local structure–property determinations in crystalline and quasi-ordered systems, as well as systems with competing structural and electronic order parameters.

Citizen Science and the Biology of Pink Snow
Laura Hilton, Life Sciences, Teaching Fellow (Cell and Molecular Biology)
For decades, scientists have appreciated the role of bright, white snow on our glaciers and polar ice caps in reflecting energy from the sun to keep the planet cool, an effect known as albedo. As the snow melts due to climate change, the albedo decreases, warming the planet further in a dangerous runaway warming and melting cycle. But we have only recently come to realize the importance of "bio-albedo": tiny, single-celled, pink-coloured algae that inhabit almost every snow surface on the planet, darkening the snow and amplifying its melting. This talk will explore the fascinating microbial world of snow and ice, highlighting collaborations between my research team and citizen scientists to understand the biology of pink snow on our local glaciers and in the arctic.

Conceptual Tools and Analytical Strategies for Contemporary Studies
David Dolowitz (University of Liverpool)
Osmany Porto de Oliveira (Unifesp)
Over the past twenty years, scholars from across the globe have been studying the diffusion of everything from complete political systems to the use of ideas found elsewhere to inspire local action. In this activity, a range of interesting case studies, comparisons, conceptual and empirical developments have occurred. However, despite this blossoming interest in the diffusion of innovations, there has been a general lack of the methodological debate and development. Rather most studies have relied on qualitative interviews, observations, and document analysis.
As a transnational phenomenon, research methods need to be operated not only within the boundaries of a single political system (or level) but also across territorial boundaries. Second, methodological advancement will also involve finding techniques to understand and trace the activities of the individual, institutional and ideational agency. Third, methods must also be developed that can link the above with the actual spaces where transfers occur. In this sense, multi-sited fieldwork, as well as following diffusion objects and the observation of spaces of agent interactions are scenarios, which require specific research strategies.
This call for papers aims to address questions of methodology. Proposals should address at least one of the following questions:
- Which methodological strategies can be used to overcome the "territorial trap" and gather transnational data for policy transfers?
- Network theory
- Discourse analysis
- Macro-level theoretical analysis
- What methodological techniques could help overcome the black box of the movement and adaptation of ideas once foreign information enters a policymaking situation?
- Ethnography
- Participant Observation
- Embedded Researchers
- What techniques and issues are involved in examining how transfer re-enters the policymaking process once it reaches ground-level implementing agents?
- Methods of implementation
- Actor analysis
- Which tools can be used in order to access and assess field research?
- Which tools can be used to best understand the iterative processes that occur across time as something transfers?
- Can policy transfer be used as an object to innovate public policy research methods?
- What methods can best capture resistance techniques and outcomes to the transfer process?
- How can we use methodology to engage in international collaborative research?

Net Profit and profitability
Net Profit = Total Revenue – Total Expenses
Profit can be elusive. It's important to know as much as you can about how to look at the numbers to assess true profitability. Net profit margin is something else to look for.
Net profit margin
When you know your net profit, you can analyse net profit margin. It looks at net profit as a percentage of total revenue. In other words, it's what proportion of revenue remains out of all revenue, after deducting operating expenses, interest, and taxes.
Net Profit Margin = Net Profit/Total Revenue = (Total Revenue – Total Expenses)/Total Revenue
Why is net profit margin important?
Net profit is your bottom line after all and some business owners might be content not to dig deeper. But if you don't, you won't know what percentage of revenue ended up in the bottom line. Shareholders and potential investors would be quite interested to know what it is because net profit margin says how effective your business is at taking revenue and making it into profits available to shareholders. If you're trying to pitch your business to investors, net profit margin is a way to grab their attention.
Keeping an eye on changes in your net profit margin is also a great way to keep tabs on how profitable your business is over time.
How is net profit margin different from gross profit margin?
Let's go back to basics. Profit margin is a percentage that tells you the amount a company earns per dollar of sales.
Gross profit margin shows your total revenue minus what it cost the business to produce the goods or services it sold. It's the amount a company earns per dollar of sales after you deduct how much it cost to make the sale (aka cost of goods sold). It's a broad brush indicator of profitability and you can use it to help you work out your breakeven point.
Because you can be making more money but not as much profit (if, for instance, your overheads or your taxes go up), net profit margin gives you the next level of detail to help you zero in on profitability. It factors in other expenses beyond the cost of sale.
Summing up
Net profit margin shows your profit as a percentage of revenue, after all expenses have been deducted, including tax and any interest paid on money you owe. It is the percentage of revenue that actually reflects a company's profit per dollar of sales. If you operate in a competitive market, bringing your costs down might be a better strategy than increasing your prices, especially if in the short term it's hard to increase your market share. A better cost management strategy, consolidating your debts or finding a more favourable interest rate may all be worth considering.
Your bottom line remains all important. But squeeze it to make it tell you more so you can keep improving profitability in your business.

Get Free Gifts from Desperate PR Firms
The WSJ reports on TV marketers' experimentation with blogola, or the practice of lavishing gifts and attention on bloggers as a PR strategy: "To Create Buzz: TV Networks Try A Little Blogola."
At the risk of sounding like a slimy PR guy, marketing money spent in the blogosphere is money well spent. As the communications guy for Lulu, I worked with journalists from all over the world to provide the material for stories. The media-bashers among you may have a hard time believing it, but in my experience the most skeptical group of reporters on the planet — the most hyper-sensitive about being influenced by PR in any way — were American journalists. To a person they like to think of themselves as above the filthy fray of commerce.*
Bloggers, despite the widespread self-perception that they are more independent than traditional media, are comparatively easy to flatter and to influence. Having said that — and probably pissed off quite a few readers in the process — I don't think there is anything wrong with the kind of blog-directed PR being described in the WSJ story. A few bloggers are allowed to get an inside look at the production of tv shows…. how cool is that?
The value of blogs as a new branch of media arises NOT from their emulation of the values and standards of conventional media, but from the genuine individual perspectives blogs can offer: a powerful, if anecdotal, window into the pool of consciousnesses in which we might otherwise swim oblivious.
If the blogger in the WSJ article who met Julia Louise-Dreyfuss writes something about how cool the actress turned out to be, as a reader I am capable of seeing that sentiment for what it is but still finding it interesting. A professional journalist can't be transparently starstruck, but bloggers are free to remain true to their own raw reactions, complete with biases, flaws, and insights.
I don't go to Amazon.com's customer reviews for the same information that I expect from ConsumerReports.org, but as a consumer I want access to both. And as a PR guy, I'd want to have a strategy for each of them.

Several years ago I met with a purchasing manager in a well-respected global technology company. In an effort to protect identities, let's place him geographically somewhere in the western hemisphere. . . Two consultants and I had developed a dynamic process for implementing change in an enterprise and we were confident our system could bring great value to this mammoth organization.
After listening to our presentation, this purchasing guy leaned back in his chair and replied, "You know what I do whenever top management tells me to do something? I sit on it and don't do anything."
We must have looked a bit incredulous so he continued, "I don't do anything because as soon as I try to do what they told me to do, they'll read another book and tell me to do something else. So I just sit on it and don't do anything."
Somewhere in that company well-intentioned leaders pursue creative ways to bring innovation, new ideas, and fresh energy to all levels of that organization. And somewhere deep in the bowels of that company sit people like the guy I met who quietly smother those initiatives by inactivity and indifference. Perhaps he has been given too many great ideas with no plan for turning them into reality. Maybe he has run into problems when he makes changes so he has stopped trying to change anything.
I wonder how much time in senior executive strategy sessions the leaders in that company ask themselves, "Now what will we do if the people we count on to launch this don't do anything? How can we prevent problems from developing as we implement this plan?"
Innovation without implementation creates aggravation. After watching one brilliant idea after another die on the road to implementation, it is easy to understand how people become like the manager I met. Many companies focus significant human and financial resources in the pursuit of innovation. I wonder how much energy those companies put toward ensuring their innovations are successfully implemented.
In an insightful article titled Innovation: The Classic Traps (Harvard Business Review, November 2006) Rosabeth Moss Kanter draws from years of research and observation when she writes, "Too often. . . grand declarations about innovation are followed by mediocre execution that produces anemic results, and innovation groups are quietly disbanded in cost-cutting drives" (page 73).
If your latest revitalization effort is stalled like a beat-up truck on a dusty road your problems might have more to do with your failure to anticipate problems than the quality of your new ideas. Anticipation is the first step toward prevention. The surest way to prevent a problem is to plan for it.

Last week I made a call to action for you to help your team establish a vision for their life. Because I value your time, I saved the second part of that message for today.
We hear a lot of business owners fretting about the output of their teams. "Where's the drive?" and "Where's the initiative?" they ask.
If this is you, I found a scientific solution you're going to want to pay attention to. Here's the six-word summary:
Make your workplace bigger than work.
Harvard Business Review's recent publication on The Neuroscience of Trust, explains the how and why of this. According to leading neuroeconomist Paul J. Zak, trust is the differentiator between high-performing and low-performing workplaces:
"Compared with people at low-trust companies, people at high-trust companies report 74% less stress, 106% more energy at work, 50% higher productivity, 13% fewer sick days, 76% more engagement, 29% more satisfaction with their lives, and 40% less burnout."
Building trust is something we can all agree on, right?
But it's the next part that might push you out of your comfort zone:
According to Zak, the secret to building high-trust workplaces is to help your people develop in more than just their job:
"High-trust workplaces help people develop personally as well as professionally. Numerous studies show that acquiring new work skills isn't enough; if you're not growing as a human being, your performance (on the job) will suffer."
But you pay them to do a good job, right? If they're taking your money, they ought to just do it, right?
Not so fast. Decades of research have shown this is not the case. The number one reason people are leaving their jobs is to get away from their boss who isn't engaging them.
Are you engaging your employees?
Are you helping your employees envision a life bigger than their work?
Our team got together and brainstormed for you
Here are five ideas for making work bigger than work:
- Make a regular one-on-one meeting with your team members where the key objective is to talk about goals outside of daily work
- Post team goals and accomplishments in a public place where everyone can see them (maybe a newsletter?).
- Have a "win for the week" session in your weekly meetings (everyone has to talk about a win outside of work).
- Stop in the middle of the week and have a competitive game (we call ours Franklympics)
- Celebrate spouse anniversaries, kids birthdays, Halloween and other real-life things to bring personal joy into your office.
I can't promise you that any of this will be easy, but from personal experience, I can promise you it will be worth it.
Now, go push past the comfort zone and make your work bigger than work!

President Obama met with a group of small business owners and advocacy groups to discuss the prospect of expiring tax cuts and the so-called fiscal cliff.
Colorado entrepreneur Lisa Goodbee joined the President and 14 other small business owners from across the country on Tuesday to talk about the fiscal situation being created by a host of tax increases and billions of dollars in automatic spending cuts that will take effect on Jan. 1 if Congress and the president can't agree on a plan to reduce the deficit by year's end—known as the fiscal cliff. If not avoided, this situation will have a dire effect on entrepreneurs and the middle class, small firms' core customer base.
"Business is picking up as the economy recovers, but my clients could take a big hit if we fall off the so-called fiscal cliff, and that could be devastating for my business," said Goodbee, president of Goodbee & Associates, Inc., an engineering firm in Centennial, Colo., in a statement. "It's really important for my clients and my own business for Congress to take a balanced approach to this problem, and find a sensible solution that both generates revenue and cuts expenses."
Obama has pushed for a number of small business tax breaks to stimulate the economy. The tax breaks would refund 10 percent of the cost of new payroll—in the form of new hiring or new wages—up to a total of $500,000 next year.
Four other participants in the White House meeting were affiliated with the American Sustainable Business Council and Business for Shared Prosperity: Mandy Cabot, CEO of Dansko Inc, a footwear company headquartered in West Grove, Penn.; Lew Prince, managing partner of Vintage Vinyl in St. Louis, the largest independent music store in the Midwest; and David Bolotsky, CEO of UnCommonGoods in Brooklyn N.Y.; Nikhil Arora, co-founder of Back to the Roots, an urban mushroom farm in Oakland, Calif.
Cabot, Prince, Bolotsky and Arora are among more than 600 business owners and executives who signed a letter sent by the advocacy groups American Sustainable Business Council and Business for Shared Prosperity calling on Congress to end costly Bush tax cuts for the top 2 percent and reinvest in America.
"We're not here asking for anything for ourselves," said Prince. "We're here because we want the best for our country. I've run a small business for more than 30 years. Expecting high-income tax cuts to trickle down as job creation is like pouring gas on your hood and expecting it to fuel your engine. It's time to stop giving tax breaks to wealthy households and big corporations, and reinvest in America." Prince is a leader in Business for Shared Prosperity.
In their letter to Congress, the business leaders said, "In the last decade, we have been cutting taxes on the wealthiest Americans and underfunding vital programs to pay for them. Large and growing budget cuts have had a severe impact on business, particularly micro and small business and job creation—reducing funding for infrastructure improvements, community economic development programs, housing, job training and much more. America's failing infrastructure is starved of funds and falling further behind our global competitors. … The high-end tax cuts are hurting our economy. It's time to end them, not extend them. This would be an important step in rebuilding an economy that grows our small businesses and middle class."
An opinion poll released earlier this month by the advocacy group Small Business Majority found that nearly eight in 10 small business owners are aware of the fiscal cliff. The poll also revealed that entrepreneurs don't want a solution to interfere with job creation opportunities. A majority of them believe it's more important for Congress to focus on creating jobs than reducing the deficit. However, small business owners see eliminating tax cuts that only benefit the wealthiest as one part of a potential solution.
By nearly a two-to-one ratio, small business owners believe spending cuts for education, health care and infrastructure would hurt the economy more than a tax increase on the top 2 percent. A majority also believe that allowing tax cuts for high-income earners to expire is the right thing to do given the current economic situation.

Ok, I've been a bit off my game recently and haven't felt especially "write-y" but I wanted to try to post something beer related here. I finally finished the last of the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp beers and finished this write-up.
On to the second half of the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp 12 pack! This is a cool collaboration series with several other noteworthy breweries from around the USA, all packaged into one box. I'm not sure if any of these are still available but if you see one--get it! I blogged about the first six bottles last week: see that HERE. I'm going to keep my descriptions a bit shorter.
1) There and Back by SN and New Glarus. I've loved New Glarus for a very long time, so I was looking forward to this particular beer. The name conjures up images of Bilbo Baggins sitting in his hobbit hole after fighting off Smaug the dragon, fondling his One Ring and having a pint. This English bitter seems to be one of the lowest alcohol beers in the pack, clocking in at only 5.6% ABV. Poured into an English style pint glass.
Aroma: Malt up front with a pleasant toasted bread character. There is a bit of herbal and minimally citrus hop in the aroma as swirled. Very subtle fruity esters.
Appearance: Slight haze (may have been my pour) with a deep golden to almost copper color. Large tight white head.
Flavor: A healthy bite of hops right off the bat--earthy and citrusy but not musty. Fades to a mellow toasty malt flavor ripe with melanoidins. Finish is dry with a slightly bitter tinge--but not astringent. Fruity notes as it warms.
Overall: Hoppier than most bitters, and more American hop character. Balance is great on this and it is very drinkable. I could drink a few of these (if I had more!) 4/5.
2) Tater Ridge by SN and the Ashville Brewers Alliance. The ABA seems to be a group dedicated to furthering beer education and knowledge, as well as organizing beer festivals and events. This beer is a Scottish ale brewed with local sweet potatoes. ABV 7% and 35 IBU.
Aroma: Very malty! There is a citrus zing to it as swirled as well as a hint of alcohol. Overall sweet aroma.
Appearance: Deep copper in color. Good clarity but not perfect. Fine off white head that fades fairly quickly.
Flavor: Malty caramel and toasty flavors are dominant in the brew. I do pick up on citrus hop flavors, but restrained. Barest smoky note at end. The finish is notable for a somewhat astringent end. My wife (who loves Scottish ales) didn't like the finish and had me drink her half. Oh well!
Overall: A very good beer. I really like mix of American hops and Scottish style, but certainly not a great BJCP example of a Scottish ale. I would drink more. 3.5/5.
3) Yvan The Great by SN and Russian River. I love Russian River. The only way we can get it in Minnesota is collaboration beers and having friends and family mule it across borders. Known for both sour beers and some of the best hoppy ales in the USA, I had high expectations for this beer!
Aroma: Very hoppy citrus (lemon and orange) up front. After the first burst of hop, I gather a complex Belgian yeast aroma with banana and other fruit esters. Hint of sulfur. Some sweet candy sugar and bit of corny pilsner malt.
Appearance: Very light golden color with excellent clarity. A fine white head with tight bubbles that fades fairly fast.
Flavor: In a word: Bright! This beer has strong orange and lemon flavors that were hinted at in the aroma. After the flash of hop, this fades to a wonderful bananas and cream flavor. Some light pilsner malt character but more sugary. The body is light and the finish is very dry. Not astringent.
Overall: Let me say up front that I dislike most excessively hoppy Belgian ales (especially with American hops). This one blew me away by having a very harmonious blend of hop and Belgian yeast character. By all rights this beer shouldn't work, but it does! 4.5/5.
4) Alt Route by SN and Victory. An Alt beer (a style fairly difficult to find in the US--a German style ale brewed at lagering temps.) ABV is 6.6% with 50 IBU.
Aroma: Some malt present with a subtle roastiness. Candy sweetness with an almost Sweet-Tart twang to it. Citrusy.
Appearance: Deep copper to nearly brown. Large tan head with large bubbles. Slight haze.
Flavor: Sweetish malt flavors at first. Sweetness quickly fades to a harsh bitterness that tastes of burning metal (ever throw tin-foil on a camp fire?) that just stays with you for several minutes. Body is medium. Balance wayyyyyyy to the bitter side.
Overall: My least favorite of the Beer Camp box. Rough and bitter with terrible astringency. Not a win for Victory... 2/5 and I dumped it.
5) Maillard's Odyssey by SN and Bells. This is a darker beer of no stated style that plays up the malty and toasty quality of carmelized grain. I tested this while brewing a barleywine so my notes are a bit spotty...
Aroma: Roasted malt with milk chocolate sweetness is dominant. Slight metallic twang. No hop aroma picked out.
Appearance: Deep black and pretty much opaque. Large dark tan head. Very persistent fine bubbles.
Flavor: Just like the aroma promised! Sweet malt and a milk chocolate and toasted bread flavor. Fades to a smooth roastiness and a more bitter dark chocolate finish that is slightly astringent but not bad. There is hop bitterness to even out the sweet but not much hop flavor (a shock for this box set!) Thick milkshake mouthfeel, but an off-dry finish.
Overall: My favorite in the box set! Amazingly complex interplay between the malt and chocolate flavors. Like an Imperial Milk Stout! 5/5.
6) Double Latte by SN and Ninkasi. I love Ninkasi and was really looking forward to this beer--in fact that is why I saved it for last! This is a 60 IBU and 7.6% ABV coffee milk stout. The hopping is all nugget, not an incredibly popular hop these days.
I liked the aroma and appearance of this beer: a huge malt and roast nose and an enormous tan head. The flavor fell a little flat for me. The gratuitous hop bitterness and astringency accentuated the bitter coffee and roast and made this very harsh instead of creamy and pleasant. Don't get me wrong I still drank it all, but not quite what I was expecting.

Paul Pogba is on Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho's radar. The Juventus midfielder has sparked more transfer rumors by dining with Zlatan Ibrahimovic in California.
Pogba is the Red Devil's primary transfer target this summer, but they face competition from Real Madrid. The French International is currently spending holidays in Los Angeles with Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Both the players are enjoying their time together away from soccer after the conclusion of Euro 2016.
The Swedish superstar has already completed his move to Old Trafford, but Pogba's future still remains uncertain. Jose Mourinho wants to add the mercurial midfielder to United's roster this summer.
Chef Bobby Chinn claims that Pogba and Ibrahimovic dined together with their respective families in a restaurant in California, according to the Daily Mail.
ALSO READ: Portugal Vs France: UEFA Euro 2016 final highlights
Chinn managed to take pictures with both the players and has speculated that they discussed Manchester United while munching on the food.
Pogba left United as a free agent in 2012. Now the Red Devils are trying to bring him back on a world record deal worth approximately $132 million.
Earlier in the offseason, Pogba's agent Mino Raiola said that Spanish giants Real Madrid are also interested in the 23-year-old superstar midfielder. He also pointed out that initial talks between Real Madrid and the French International had taken place. Raiola has reportedly set a deadline of the end of July for Pogba's future to be resolved.

So last night I gave you a great Otis Redding cover. Tonight, I give you the worst.
Here is the legend himself doing it right.

As always Nick D is delivering some solid music pix lately. I also ran across a nasty cover the other day that I want to share. If you spent the day with me on that beach in Key West you know two things about me. #1 I love me some Sara Bareilles. #2 I can drink more Pina Colada's than a person my size should be able to.
Due to the the overwhelming response (and by overwhelming I mean I received 2 "likes" on Facebook) to my last story on my favorite cover songs I have decided to post another batch of cover songs for your listening pleasure. Once again I will be posting some of my favorite cover songs without subjecting you to the same cover songs we have all heard a million times. I am pretty sure you don't need to listen to the Hendrix version of "All Along the Watchtower" or The Black Crowes version of "Hard to Handle" again, and if you do you need to be on another website anyway.
Drive by Truckers – Mama Bake a Pie (Daddy Kill a Chicken)
This is quickly becoming one of my favorite songs by this band. The original song was originally done by Tom T. Hall. It is an incredibly well written song about a veteran who returns to the United States after losing his legs at war. When Patterson Hood sings the line "Since I won't be walking I suppose I'll save some money buying shoes" I was hooked. I am convinced there is no way you will be able to only listen to this song once. This is one of the greatest story telling songs I have ever heard.
Ray Lamontagne & Damien Rice – To Love Somebody
There are a few facts in life. Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time. Jerry Rice is the greatest receiver of all time, Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player of all time, and "To Love Somebody' is the best song the Bee Gees ever recorded. I have listened to this song thousands of times by the Bee Gees and several other bands and it never gets old. This version by Damien Rice and Ray Lamontagne is my favorite version of the song. I believe it was filmed on some European TV show a few years back and it is fantastic. Give it a listen and try and tell me you do not love this song.
Linda Ronstadt – Willin'
I could do a list of just bands covering this song. I think you have to record a version of this Little Feat classic if you make more than 2 albums. I love every single version of this song I have heard, and there are plenty to choose from. Other than the original I think this is my favorite version. It is from the album "Heart Like a Wheel". If you only own one of Linda Ronstadt's albums make it this one.
Counting Crows – This Land Is Your Land
I found this song a few years ago when the band released the deluxe version of their first album "August and Everything After". The version on the album is an acoustic demo and it is really great. I think has become cool to bash this band over the past few years but I still like them and their version of this song is one of the best versions I have heard over the years.
Dixie Chicks – Truth #2
Patty Griffin made an album in 2000 that ended up getting shelved for 13 years for unknown reasons. That album was called "Silver Bell" and on that album there is a song called "Truth #2". You might have heard that song as far back as 2002 when the Dixie Chicks released it on their album "Home". It is my favorite Dixie Chicks song and I had no idea it was a cover for several years. I never even heard the original version until 2013 when "Silver Bell" was finally released. Both versions are great but I will always like the Dixie Chicks version a little more than the original. Check out a pretty cool live version of the song.
I love a good cover song. I think everyone probably enjoys cover songs. It is a great way to hear bands you like sing the songs of bands that influenced them. Over the years some of the bands I love have covered some great songs that have turned me on to bands I had never listened to before. I wanted to try and turn you on to some cover songs that I think are really cool. I will try and steer clear of songs you have heard a million times and hopefully introduce you to some new versions of songs you may or may not be familiar with.
Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit – When My Baby's Beside Me
This song was originally done by the seminal band Big Star. Big Star only made 3 records but became one of the most influential bands you have never heard of. After watching the documentary "Big Star:Nothing Can Hurt Me" I have become obsessed with the band. I am also obsessed with Jason Isbell so when he does a Big Star cover you know it will be nasty. Enjoy this obscure cover.
Matthew Sweet – Do Ya
This is an absolutely ferocious version of the ELO classic song. I was introduced to this version of the song by loyal BDS reader, Josh Garland, years ago on a mix CD. I lost the CD and have always regretted not having this song in my collection. This is easily one of my favorite cover songs of all time. If you do not like this song there is a good chance you are a real asshole.
Serena Ryder – Racing in the Street
I do not know anything about Serena Ryder at all. If you want to know anything about her feel free to pull up Google and do some research on her. The only thing I do know is her version of this Bruce Springsteen song is incredible. I heard it several years ago and immediately wore it out. I still listen to this song a fair amount. This version never gets old to me.
Fuel – Daniel
I dabbled in Fuel during the late nineties. They had a few decent songs but I was never in love with them. To be honest I do not even know if they are still a band these days. I will say their version of "Daniel" by Elton John is great. I do not even really like the original version of the song that much but this version is pretty nasty.
Stereophonics – Heart of Gold
One of my favorite songs of all time. The original version from Neil Young is unbeatable but this version from the band Stereophonics is about as close as you can get to being as good as the original. I have played the shit out of this song over the years. Fun fact about the original version of this song. Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor sing back up on it. If you do not believe me just ask my wife. She will verify that for you.
During this entire deflate gate fiasco I have been yelling as loud as I can that the NFL didn't and doesn't care if the balls were under deflated. If they did they would have done something about it before or during the game.
Tonight MLB showed why baseball is worlds ahead of the NFL in terms of maintaining the legitimacy of their game.
The Atlanta Braves noticed something on the arm of Brewers pitcher, Will Smith. They alerted the umpires, the umpires then stopped the game to check it out and found this.
The Smith was ejected and the game moved on. What no four-month investigation? No 250 page report? No lawyers? No cell phone to turn over? They were alerted of the problem and they fixed it right then and there.
This is what the NFL could have done but chose not to. They were told before the game that the Pats were using under inflated balls but still didn't follow protocol to keep this from happening. When the Colts told the officials during the game what did they do? NOTHING. Why? Because they didn't give two shits. They should have stopped the game, took the game ball and checked it. If it was not legal they could have ejected Brady like MLB did tonight or at least given a 15 yard penalty and moved on. Something tells me the Colts would have loved to throw a 15 yard penalty in one of those first couple drives that gave the Patriots all the momentum but once again the NFL didn't care. So when Goodell comes crawling out of his cave to tell us how horrible this is and how they must stand strong against the evil Pats and Tom Brady I call BULLSHIT.
I have been watching a lot of the NHL playoffs this year and am loving every second of it. Last night something happened that I have never seen before. It was also a first for my hard core hockey friends. A soccer style header for what was thought to be the game winner that any footballer would be proud of.
Tonight will be the last time David Letterman will come into our bedrooms and crawl into bed with us. (well unless you are a female staffer of the show) If you are between the age of 30 and 50 then Dave was your guy. Dave had so many great moments but here is one of my favorites.
Knicks failure.
Scott was able to turn a below average basketball team into a champion single handed. Well with the help of supernatural powers.
