Miami International Auto Show Closes Successful Show
The 46th annual Miami International Auto Show presented by Ally which featured Global debuts of the 2017 Nissan Rogue, 2017 Nissan Sentra and the 2017 Ford F-150 STX closed a successful nine-day run on Sunday, September 18th.
"We were happy that the crowds made their way to the Miami Beach Convention Center to see what's new in the auto industry in spite of the concerns of the Zika virus which has impacted the Miami Beach area," said Rick Baker, auto show manager. "We had other challenges as well with the show opening two months earlier than normal due to renovations at the Convention Center and the area's construction which made getting to the show extremely difficult for visitors. We thank our visitors for supporting the auto show."
Considered among America's top five Auto Shows, the Miami show presented several hundred new cars, crossovers and SUV's from the major manufacturers. It's the first major auto show of the season.
Major announcements were made in Miami by such lines as Nissan, Fiat, Genesis, Ford, Toyota, Lexus, Volkswagen, Honda and Alfa Romeo. Hundreds of national and international journalists attended the Media Day activities.
The official show car of the 46th edition auto show was the 2017 Highlander Limited Platinum Hybrid and the giveaway car was the 2017 Chevy Cruze LS with a MSRP of $19,995.
The popular Million Dollar Alley exhibit presented a number of exotics from Bugatti, Ferrari and Lamborghini as well as Paganis priced at over $1 million.
Among the other popular exhibits were Camp Jeep which offered attendees the opportunity for an off-road Jeep experience that demonstrated the legendary 4x4 capabilities of Jeep vehicles and the Topless in Miami exhibit which presented winning drop tops from the annual competition sponsored by the Southern Automotive Media Association (SAMA).
Show goers were also able to enjoy Miami Beach's famed Ocean Drive backdrop when getting behind the wheel of selected new models from manufacturers like Kia, Nissan, Mazda, Toyota and Chevrolet during the show's Ride & Drive opportunities.
Ally's "New Car Smell" exhibit was a welcome addition to the popular Cars Meet Art display, enabling consumers to explore eight new car scents that reflected the spirit and style of both car and driver, or create their own unique virtual scent using an interactive iPad app. Internationally-recognized artist DUAIV showcased his vibrantly painted Corvette Z06 C7R Special Edition in the exhibit.
The auto show is presented by the South Florida Automobile Dealers Association which comprises more than 190 dealerships in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Monroe counties making it larger than some state-wide auto dealer groups. The 47th annual Miami International Auto Show has been tentatively scheduled for September 9-17.
For more information on the auto show, visit www.miamiautoshow.net.
About South Florida Automobile Dealers Association
The South Florida Automobile Dealers Association began in 1933 and originally was formed to share marketing opportunities and control costs. Today, the Association comprises more than 190 dealerships in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Monroe counties making it larger than some state-wide auto dealer groups. For more than 40 years, the Association has donated over $7 million to numerous charities that also include Joe DiMaggio Hospital, YMCA, Alzheimer's Association Sheridan House, Museum of Art, American Cancer Society, Historic Society of Fort Lauderdale, and others.

|Portrait Gifted by Artist Gideon Fasola, Ibadan, Nigeria
A Word from the Curator
Keith McFarlane, Amsterdam
Portraits Africa offers exclusive access to limited-edition fine-art prints from some of Africa's best young and emerging artists. The artists offer not only prints, but original commissions, and will work with you to create a unique and uniquely personal work of art. At the beginning of their career, juggling art, education and making a living, these artists face an uphill task.
Africa was chosen for the opportunity it offers at the same time to lower the cost of ownership of original art, and to help significantly with the financial position of the individual artists. This dual benefit is only possible because a Dollar or Euro is worth far more, in Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria or South Africa, than anywhere in Europe, Canada or the United States.
The artists ask only to deliver a first-rate service to their clients, through the pleasure derived from their fine-art prints, or the personal engagement of a commissioned work.
But there is also a social benefit in the transfer of resources to the local economy. Not only that, because funds are transferred to individuals, not businesses or charities, there are no deductions (in staff, buildings, or administration) that any local and on the ground organisation must inevitably make.
Being both individual and specific, Portraits Africa should appeal to the better angels of European and North American citizens, whatever their political beliefs. It's a highly targeted form of giving, and one that pays back with an excellent product delivered at a market-winning price.
There has been strong interest from the artists. The quality of their work is remarkable, one might say revelatory. And having seen that quality available for a modest outlay, we can expect a strong demand.

The Patriots have appeared in the Super Bowl eight times in franchise history, six of them since the arrival of head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady in 2000. The Patriots have since become one of the most successful teams in NFL history, winning twelve AFC East titles in 14 seasons since 2001, without a losing season in that period. The Patriots have since set numerous notable records, including most wins in a ten-year period (126, in 20032012), an undefeated 16-game regular season in 2007, and the longest winning streak consisting of regular season and playoff games in NFL history (a 21-game streak from October 2003 to October 2004).

Men's Professional Watches
Back in the 40's and 50's, watches were not something that everyone had the luxury of owning, and those who did had something to be proud of. Men took great pride in passing them down from generation to generation. But with the popularity of cell phones, in addition to more casual business environments, men have begun to abandon wrist watches in exchange for cell phones as their means of keeping punctual. Indeed, your phone does display time and may even have a nifty alarm, but your phone is not going to give you a professional edge or psychological advantage over your ill-equipped competition.
It is a competitive world out there professionally, and you need every possible advantage over your competition. Wearing a wrist watch sends a subconscious message to others that you are a force to be reckoned with! It tells the world you are responsible and should be taken seriously, which is very important in the professional arena.
Let's talk about watches… just in case you decide to put down your phone and pick one up.
There is no "right" watch to wear for business; however there are some wrong watches to wear. Stay away from ultra casual sports watches, flashy colors and Velcro bands. Avoid the temptation to buy that trendy, oversized or flamboyant watch and go with a more classic style and design. By wearing an inappropriate casual watch, you will be sending the message that you don't know any better, lack maturity, and are possibly quite sloppy. I'm not sure which is worse!
Choose a watch that is either silver or gold in color; whichever matches the metal of the other accessories or jewelry you regularly wear (rings, bracelets, belt buckles, tie bar, cuff links). Mixing and matching metals is one of the most common mistakes men make when outfitting themselves with accessories. If you wear a gold wedding band, you have three options: get a new silver band (clear it with the wife before just surprising her or having her notice), buy a gold watch, or wear a watch with both silver and gold metals (how ingenious of those manufacturers).
Once you have decided on the watch, you then have to decide on the band material. You can opt for a matching metal band (silver or gold), leather band (black or brown), or in some cases men are wearing their watch with an ultra hip black rubber band. The band you choose is more about personal taste and preference, and less about a style or image statement. However, it is a good idea to think ahead and buy a watch and band that will be versatile enough to wear with both casual and business attire.
As men, we have gotten the short end of the accessory stick in terms of options compared to our female counter part… but not with watches. The watch is one of the areas and accessories that we can express our own unique taste and individual style. There are thousands of watch brands out there. Some will cost more than your car and others are quite reasonable. With some watches, you are paying for the name and logo, which only a passionate watch aficionado would notice; yet there are plenty of other fabulous watches for the rest of us. Here is the rundown on some brands to know and consider… and some to plan on getting once you climb that corporate ladder:
Good Looking Brands For Under $100:
- Guess
- Fossil
- Timex
- Pulsar
- Nixon
- Invicta
- Kenneth Cole
Great Watches Between $100-200:
- Bulova
- Michael Kors
- Armani
- Swiss Army
- Seiko
- Citizen
- Luminox
Stylish Selections For Around $500:
- Tissot
- Azzaro
- TW Steel
- Phillip Stein
- Welder
Luxury Watches:
- Rolex
- Panerai
- IWC (International Watch Company)
- Breitling
- Bulgari
- Swiss Legend
- Oris
- Franck Muller
- Cartier
Wearing a wrist watch lets the world know that, you, my friend, know what time it is… both literally as well as figuratively.

Christmas reflections from our partners
This year, we've invited a range of TEAR friends – including our overseas partners - to share their thoughts on Christmas.
Here is a small collection of reflections from some of our partners. We hope you enjoy reading what Christmas means to them.
Patricia Kennedy, Educator and Mentor with one of TEAR's local partners in the Solomon Islands
"To me Christmas is all about coming together as families and do things together like; singing (carol songs), feasting, remembering the birth of Lord Jesus Christ through dramas and dancing. Personally, for me, it is a time to reflect on my faith journey with the Lord
Christmas is all about reflecting about the birth of our saviour Lord Jesus Christ. Who brought our salvation and free us from bondage of sins, so it is same as the message of justice where mercy for the whole human race comes in."
Chomno In, CEO, Cambodia Hope Organisation (TEAR's partner), Cambodia
Christmas is a time of celebration and thanksgiving, a time where friends and family come together to sing praises, worship and thank God for sending His son to save us from our sins and created a home for each and everyone of us in Heaven if we chose to trust and follow Him.
God's love is just and His kindness knows no boundaries. Celebrating Christmas is a reminder that we as the children of God should take Jesus as an example and love and treat everyone equally no matter who they are or how they have treated you because our father created everyone the same.
Dr Sunita Varghese, Director of Emmanuel Hospital Association (EHA's) Community Health Program in Fatehpur, India
Here at EHA, we look forward to the Christmas season. This year, I've been reflecting on the shepherds out at night and the angels bringing them an amazing message. It just reminds me of how God has an eye on the poor, on the people who are out working hard and who are seen as insignificant in the world. God took his big, mega news out to them, not just in a tiny way but with a whole host of angels in such a spectacular way. God revealed the amazing joy of Christmas to an unseen group of people and I think I find that very significant. It connects with what I feel is the whole message of Christ in taking his gospel to the poor, to those who are disabled and struggling, to those who are brokenhearted.
This is a beautiful aspect of the Christmas story. Those shepherds must have been such special people to Him, for him to put up such a spectacular performance. He could have done it to the whole world but he chose to reveal himself to the shepherds.
William from our local partner in Malaita, Solomon Islands
Christmas is a season of celebration with peace, love and care through the grace of our newborn king with the sense of belonging to our families.
Simon Haile Maiko, Commissioner, Ethiopian Kale Heywet Church Development Commission (TEAR's partner), Ethiopia
For me, Christmas is the beginning where life started to make sense for humankind. It is a birth of the church in the world and it's the most impeccable gift that anyone could ever ask for. Christ manifested how much we mean to Him stepping all the way down to our context and even died for us. He taught us humility by being born in a stable and accompanying the vulnerable. We learnt inclusiveness from His services and understood that we are called to serve and not to be served. Humbling ourselves and supporting the most disadvantaged people is what we are trying to achieve as a church in this world. In conclusion, Christmas is a new beginning.
Support TEAR this Christmas

The National Transportation Safety Board has concluded that poor manufacturing led to the metal fatigue and subsequent roof hole that opened up on a Southwest Airlines airplane in 2011.
The board, in an accident brief issued last week, said that it "determines that the probable cause of this accident was the improper installation of the fuselage crown skin panel at the S-4L lap joint during the manufacturing process, which resulted in multiple site damage fatigue cracking and eventual failure of the lower skin panel."
The accident occurred April 1, 2011, on a flight from Phoenix that was headed to Sacramento. The Boeing 737-300 airplane suffered a rapid decompression as it was climbing through 34,000 feet.
The pilots quickly brought the airplane to a lower altitude – down to 11,000 feet in five minutes – and then landed the airplane in Yuma, Ariz.
The NTSB said the airplane had a section about 60 inches long by eight inches wide that "had fractured and flapped open on the upper left side above the wing."
In short, the NTSB investigation blamed sloppy work (our phrase, not the NTSB's) for the metal fatigue. The NTSB's wording was that the manufacturing "showed a lack of attention to detail and extremely poor manufacturing technique."
Here's a segment from the report:
"Examination of the rivets in the fracture area revealed numerous anomalies, including oversized rivets, variations in finish, under-driven conditions, expanded shank areas, and crank-shafting.
"Most of the lower-row holes in the lower skin had discrepancies including ovalized holes, double-drilled holes, gaps between the buck tail and the hole, sealant in the rivet hole, and burrs protruding from under the buck tail.
"Examination of the lap joint before it was separated revealed that almost all of the lower-row holes in the lower skin were offset from the holes in the upper skin and attached doubler.
"The hole quality in the crown and left side skin panels was not in accordance with Boeing specifications or standard manufacturing practices and showed a lack of attention to detail and extremely poor manufacturing technique."
At one rivet, fatigue cracking probably began from the moment Southwest put the airplane in service.
So where was the poor quality assembly performed? The NTSB didn't know. It did say that "Southwest Airlines had not replaced the crown skin or upper skin panel in the fracture area."
The fuselage was manufactured in 1996 at a Boeing plant in Wichita and shipped in two sections to its Renton, Wash., plant for joining final assembly. But no records were retained to show which plant did what work in the area that failed.
Two people – a flight attendant and a passenger who came to help him – passed out and hit their heads, suffering lacerations.
"Contributing to the injuries was flight attendant A's incorrect assessment of his time of useful consciousness, which led to his failure to follow procedures requiring immediate donning of an oxygen mask when cabin pressure is lost," the NTSB said.
The NTSB said the flight attendant " stated that there were two 'high priority' tasks: ensuring that the passengers put on their oxygen masks and establishing communication with the flight crew. He recalled that he went to the forward galley and was about to either call the captain on the interphone or make a P/A announcement to the passengers when he lost consciousness, fell, and struck his nose on the forward partition. Although Southwest Airlines training materials indicated that the first action a flight attendant should take after a decompression was to take oxygen from the nearest mask immediately, he stated that he thought he 'could get a lot more done' before getting his oxygen mask on."

What is the rarest/most valuable Spider-Man comic?
Most valuable is easy, Daryl. That's AMAZING FANTASY #15 with Spider-Man's first appearance and origin. As for rarest? That's harder, depending on what criteria you're using. Do you include variant covers? Or Dynamic Forces signed & numbered issues? It's just too hard to quantify.
From powerbomb1411
I have read there are about 3 first appearances for Venom. What is his first appearance? And why does the alien costume have 2 first appearances- 1 in Marvel Super Heroes Secrte Wars #8 and then in Amazing Spider-Man?
Venom, being a combination of many elements from many different writers/artists, is not the easiest character to explain, especially when he "first appeared".
May 1984 - Spidey first shows up wearing his new black costume (which he and the readers will eventually find out is a living alien) in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #252.
November 1984 - Spidey finds out his black costume is an alien, and ditches it in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #258
December 1984 - We find out how/when Spidey acquired his black costume in MARVEL SUPER HEROES SECRET WARS #8. This makes the issue more-or-less "the origin of the alien costume". Although this issue was released eight months after ASM #252, it takes place before it.
September 1986 - Writer David Michelinie has a sequence in WEB OF SPIDER-MAN #18 showing an arm pushing Peter Parker onto some subway tracks. Peter barely escapes getting run over, but is more freaked about the fact that his spider-sense didn't warn him about being shoved. This was to be the beginning of a new foe for Spidey consisting of his alien costume having bonded with a woman.
March 1987 - The "mystery person" again takes Peter by surprise, by throwing him off a building he had been clinging to, in WEB OF SPIDER-MAN #24. Michelinie leves WEB after this issue, and the subplot is dropped.
March 1988 - Michelinie, now writing ASM, revives his plans, but changes them some, by introducing a male character seen in shadows on the last page of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #298. This character, who we can't see clearly, is apparently wearing the alien costume.
April 1988 - On the last page of AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #299, we see clearly the character we've come to know as Venom.
May 1988 - AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #300 (considered the 'first full appearance of Venom') gives us the whole story of how Eddie Brock joined with the alien costume, and we see his first battle with Spider-Man.
So what is Venom's first appearance? YOU make the call!
From rascallyruss09
What issue did Doc Ock first appear?
Now Doctor Octopus is a character with an EASY answer to that question. He first appeared in AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #3 in July 1963.
From jaimec
I just read in MK: Spider-Man that Norman Osborn is in jail, but since when did Norman's identity as the Green Goblin become public?
You see, jaimec, Daily Bugle reporter Ben Urich wrote a book called "Dynasty of Evil" during the long period that Norman was assumed to be dead. This book told the sordid history of how Norman became the Green Goblin. After Norman returned at the end of the Clone Saga, he claimed to have been in hiding in Europe, and that Urich's book was all a lie, and he would be suing. Recently, in THE PULSE #1-5, Norman, seeming a little more crazy than ever, got caught after murdering some Oscorp employees, and unmasked to the public, with no doubts, as the Green Goblin.
From amheitkemper
Is there going to be an Essential Spider-Man Vol. 7? If so, do you know when?
There probably will be, Mr. Kemper, but it has yet to be solicited.
From nuinks
How strong is "the Black Tarantula" and are his abilities on par with Captain America or is he more like Spidey?
The Black Tarantula's powers and abilities haven't been defined too clearly, nuinks. It's known, though, that he is much stronger than Spidey, and has excellent fighting skills.
From radamesso
In SPIDER-MAN #1 (Torment), Spidey says he fought with Thanos once before. In which issue? I only remember a fight between the two that follows Torment (SPIDER-MAN #17).
The issue in question would be MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE Annual #2.
From kurse18
In any alternate reality has Spidey married anyone other than MJ?
Yup. Including Gwen Stacy and Felicia Hardy.
From lrobb
I was watching the SPIDER-MAN movie and noticed that Peter's uncle calls him "Michelangelo". I looked all over the net and have not found out why.
It's because one of the things Michelangelo was most famous for was painting, and Peter was going to help his Uncle Ben paint the kitchen.

Sakura Sakurakouji (櫻小路 櫻 Sakurakoji Sakura) is the main character and female protagonist of the Code:Breaker series. Outwardly, Sakura is thought of as cute, delicate, elegant, pure, graceful, modest and well-mannered by boys who believe they should protect her. However, Sakura is actually a martial arts expert and combat lover. She was supposed to be leading a normal and average high school life, until the night on the bus where she witnessed Oogami Rei, the male protagonist/anti-hero, wiping out a gang of bullies with his blue flames. From then Sakura has made it her own personal mission to prevent Oogami from killing, and has become more and more involved in the world of the Code:Breakers, and is hinted later in the series that she may be more important to that world than she seems. Sakura's ability to neutralize all special powers leads the others to call her a "Rare Kind". It was later proven that she is more important than she seems as she shares a past with ogami that neither can remember and the key to uncovering that past is with eden as well as her mother being one of the four founders of eden and her father being Shibuya (though she does not know he is her father as of yet)
Appearance Edit
Like her name, Sakura has a pair of sharp, silghtly pink-shaded eyes and her straight, dark pink (sometimes shown as dark purple) hair that reach the back of her waist. Her hair is usually seen held up with a white hairband throughout the manga, and she hardly ever styles it other ways. When she was kidnapped by 'him' she has the same mark that 'he' has on the back of his hand tatooed on the back of her neck. Which was later revealed to be for protection and saved her life. Unlike most Shounen mangas, where most of the male characters seemed to get much more appearance spotlight, Sakura is portrayed as deadly, beautiful, and in a way, kick-ass.
Sakura normally wears her school uniform, which consists of a white blouse tied with a red bow-tie around the neck, a black-plated skirt which falls above her knees, a pair of black socks reaching up to her knees and black school shoes. A yellow, long-sleeved sweater usually goes along with her top in the colder parts of the year. Other than wearing her uniform, she is also shown in pajamas, a yukata and long-sleeved track-wear.
Despite being one of the first few characters to appear in the manga, not much is known about Sakura's background before the age of five. She was adopted by a highly-respected leader of the yakuza, Sakurakouji Goutoku, who was known as the "Raging Dragon of the East", as her daughter. And for some reasons, Sakura is well-trained in Martial Arts and is fully capable of protecting herself under dangerous circumstances, though she could act really recklessly at times, as quoted from Oogami.
According to recent chapters, Sarkura seemed to have a past with the "One being sought", who was revealed as Oogami's brother. There were images of her handing a key to to him and him pledging, and kneeling before her.
It is highly suggested in the later part of the series that there is more to her and the world of the Codes that she is unaware of, where the Code:Breakers deliberately had her leave to go on a camping trip while they fought the Re-Codes at the Shibuya Mansion.
It was also revealed in chapter 75, "he" said that the room where pandoras box was being kept (beyond the door, only accessable with the card key) was exactly the same as it was when their mother died (Oogami and"the one being sought") and that her death wad caused by Sakura and "the one being sought" also mention that Sakura's memories should be starting to come back.
It was revealed in chapter 77, that her real father is The Student Council President Shibuya.
Interestingly, in Chapter 111, Heike revealed that Sakura's mom is one of the four founders of Eden. This means Sakura is an important person.
Later it was revealed that she was responsible for the death of ogami as a child along with countless other special power users.
When she was a child she also tried to kill a dragonfly's wing, killing it. Until Ogami stopped her. She was taught by ogami that killing is wrong. Grateful she kept hugging ogami. Intrigued by this Ogami became friends with sakura.
In 131 something triggered a change within sakura and the activation of her "rare kind" power. She becomes very powerful and was able to remove everyones ability even able to divert them into their lost forms. Even pieces of he Code:Emperor's soul was being absorbed. Ogami saved her and reverted her back to normal by hugging her.
Sakura has a very caring personality, values human life, and is willing to do anything to prevent anyone from dying in front of or around her (this may or may not be the result of a past before she was taken into the Yakuza). It has never occured to Sakura that she might be protecting enemies who would kill her in return, as in Haruto's case. Sakura is goodnatured, out-spoken, and straightforward. Despite being slightly naive, she seems to have a talent of gathering people together. First introduced as the #1 most sought-after with the boys, Sakura is also very popular in school (when Sakura's friends assume that she and Oogami dating and the rumor got out, many of male students at school began attacking Rei in jealousy), and has a close group of friends. Although she is seen as a cheerful, bright-smiling girl in the present, Sakura was shown as an emotionless young child when she was young.

Serves 6 to 8
Season the roast liberally with salt on all sides. Cover with plastic and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat oven to 500°F. Unwrap roast and pat dry with a paper towel. Brush all sides of meat with the Dijon and sprinkle with the rosemary and cracked pepper. Add oil to roasting pan followed by the roast, bone-side down. Transfer the roast to the oven, uncovered, and roast for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°F and roast until center of beef reads between 125°F and 130°F on an instant-read thermometer, about an hour. Check temperature often, as cooking times may vary greatly. Allow roast to rest 20 minutes before carving. Reserve the fat left in the pan to use for roasting the potatoes
Place the quartered potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water, add a large pinch of salt. Heat the potatoes on the stove top until the water reaches a very light simmer. Reduce the heat to maintain simmer and cook until potatoes are tender but not falling apart. Drain potatoes thoroughly in a colander and chill on a cookie sheet in the refrigerator for at least one hour. This step can be done a day ahead.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a heavy cast iron skillet, heat reserved fat over medium heat. Add the potatoes in a single layer and fry until they begin to brown. Stir potatoes to brown on all sides. Sprinkle with the thyme, salt, and black pepper and place skillet in oven until potatoes are golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and transfer potatoes to a serving dish to serve with the roast.
Dress arugula with lemon juice, oil, cheese, salt, and pepper. Serve with rib roast and roasted potatoes.
Pairing: Pair with a 2013 Domaine de la Cadenette Costieres de Nimes. The full, mellow fruit flavors of this reasonably priced red allow the spicy black pepper and mustard notes of the roast to come through.

Rob Bulman - 6pm Blog
Classic Vocals 1987 - 92Posted on Saturday 6th November 2010
October 30 & November 6th 2010
This is a two shows delve into the classic vocal tracks of the time period of 1987 - 1992, the early beginnings of house and gargage.
The shows are dominated by the productions of David's Clivilies and Cole and the remix work of Steve 'silk' Hurley with a few classic Frankie Knuckles efforts thrown in too.
All 4 of these dance music heavyweights had origins in the days of boogie and disco and they are all from the good ol' USA. No strangers to the charts either it was as if they knew exactly what pushed the buttons of the dancing, the radio lstening and the buying public.
The show also features some of the most famous tracks on the house scene ever! Tracks like Ce Ce Rogers's "Someday", Sterling Void's "It's Alright", Raze's "Break for Love" and Knuckles' "tears" I make no apology for this they fit right in and even after nearly 25 years and hundreds and hundreds of listens these tracks still sound good.
Kerri Chandler Pt3Posted on Saturday 23rd October 2010
23rd October 2010 - Kerri Chandler Pt 3

Detroit Techno Special Part 1Posted on Monday 11th October 2010
9th October 2010
Detroit has been home to many major music movements be it the blues, new wave, motown or techno the place is special and has it's own place in the history of music.
Tonight's show is a compliment to some of the other specialist shows we have featured this year; Derreck May; Carl Craig; UR; Kevin Saunderson. Paying homage to some of the unsung heroes like Stacey Pullen, Kenny Larkin, James Pennington and Ritchie Hawtin the show is a power packed techno driven mix of astral symphonies and complex track-work. Sounding great on both the radio and on a sound system. I recommend you turn it up.
Disco Part 2Posted on Monday 11th October 2010
25th September 2010 - Disco Special Pt 2
This weeks show is part 2 of a Disco special featuring tracks by Ashford and Simpson, James Mason, Inner Life, Stone, Visual and Dinasaur to name but a few.

European TechnoPosted on Saturday 11th September 2010
Rob in the Mix 11/09/2010 - European Techno
The B-Sides remixes produced by Frank De Wulf were released in 1990 on Belgium's MusicMan Records they featured a track called the Tape - De Wulf's remix became a massive club hit across the water in the UK, weeks later D-Shake released - Yaaahhh on Holland's Go Bang records and this track entered the UK chart top 10. The Northern Europeans had arrived on the dance scene and with a harder, tougher, rougher type of sound - The sound of European Techno.
This weeks show is dedicated to European Techno featuring seminal labels like Djax and Go Bang from the Netherlands; Musicman, R&S and Dance Opeara from Belgium, Suck me plasma from Germany and the sound of Laurent Garnier. But it could have featured many more so popular and long lsting has the the European Techno sound become, with it's origins in the Belgian New Beat scene and the UK Acid House scene it difers to some extent from the introspective Detroit sound by being much more open to ideas and is firmly based in keeping people on the dancefloor.
By 1991 European Techno sounds were dominating the European charts with tracks by T99, Cubic 22 and Humanizer. From it spawned the trance scene of Germany and the gabba scene of Holland and some of the labels may have gone but the sound has still continued to be popular
Enjoy xox
MURKPosted on Saturday 4th September 2010
Rob B in the mix 04/09/2010 Legends of the dancefloor - MURK
Two Cuban American's Ralph Falcon and Oscar Gaeten living in the sunshine city of Miami in the very early 90's decided they wanted to put some funk into the house music that surrounded them. The result was MURK and tonight's show looks at their body of work that propelled them from being obscure independent house misfits into being globally recognised music producer commanding 5 figure fees for work.
Going under aliases such as the Fog, Liberty City and Funky Green Dogs from Outer Space as well as MURK productions, these two house producers created a body of work that soon made people's heads turn. With unique funky stabs and baselines and crowd pleasing anthems such as "Reach for me" by Funky Green Dogs remix work started to role in too.
On their own labels MURK records and on local labels like Miami Soul the duo created some of the most long lasting underground tracks of the 90's and although of late have produced very little together the songs have stood the test of time well.
Have a listen for yourself to tracks like 'that's what i got' and 'been a long time' and tell me otherwise.
Enjoy! xox
Warehouse RavePosted on Saturday 28th August 2010
Show 28th August 2010
The Warehouse rave scene of late 1989 going into 1990 really marked the end of 'Acid-House' and in particular was the first marker of the UK techno scene and the emerging UK breakbeat scene, with labels like Essex's optimism, Leeds' basic, Luton's chill records and of course the seminal Warp Records out of Sheffield leading the way
Influenced by the sounds of Detroit techno but with the desire to imprint a indentifiable UK sound to the music these were truely halcyon days for UK dance if not a bit niave. Have a listen to Ital Rockers - Ital Anthem or Testone by Sweet Exorcist as simple but effective tracks as you are likely to here.
By 1991 the styles and genres of the scene had started to fragment. The techno artist increasingly getting more introspective, the ravers noisier and the breakbeats more tougher and ragga influenced. In 1990 there was little Noth-South divide in terms of sound, fashion and direction but this had changed by 1991 and this week show relates to a unique and short lived point in time in the story of dance music.

Isabella von Bülow
I am a practical person. I like things with a function; things that just work. And I am fascinated with practical people who come up with things that work.
What works and where can we buy what works, that is the question.
The idea for One Problem Less was born when I came across the term of "Design Thinking". Though it sounded like a marketing gig for designers who like to make pretty things, which often don't work, the term seemed to bear some aspects that spoke strongly to me.
"Design thinkers" start with an understanding of the real problems people face in their day-to-day lives and then they toy around with a range of possible solutions. They aim to solve problems by using the ability to exploit and built on opposing ideas and opposing constraints, with a view of creating new solutions and ideally exploring new markets and opportunities along the way.
I am interested how visionary people cause new solutions to come into existence. Not so much the rocket science story of innovation, but the less glamorous, one-problem-less solution of our daily lives. So I started thinking about what problems we could possibly do without, and the list is endlessly long. I also thought about the problems that have been solved, and that list is also quite impressively big. This blog journey is about understanding culture and context – about the problems in our daily lives that need to be solved. It is also about the amazing thinkers who change the legacy of stuff and strive to add value. It is a blog about looking at fresh ways of re-framing everyday projects and problems.
Blog topics
I will write about objects or projects that I find worthy of mentioning either, because they are good and fit the one-problem-less-brief – which is a smart solution in terms of saving space, money and time, or because they are bad and therefore problematic. I will recognize and bring to your awareness the thinking a problem solver applied into finding the most obvious solution until a problem was totally eradicated and the result perfect. These can be very recent solutions, or creations that have been around for a long time and are now in a hall of fame of great inventions.
In other words, I am mostly interested in things that are in fact self sufficient in their problem solving characteristics – they need no further explanation. You can understand what they do just by looking at them or using them. And I will introduce you to people who stand out for their ingenuity and courage to persevere with finding a solution to a particular problem. As I live in Berlin, I will also report on what is happening here on the creativity front.
This all sounds very serious and grown-up, which it is as problem solving is a deep and meaningful matter! However, I will also pick up on things that are just fun, because creative people tend to have a good time while solving problems…

I often read in this forum of the advantages of running 2 workstation (to compose for an orchestra) - one for the sampler and one for the sequenzer). I thought of buying a new computer soon, but I was wondering if it\'s better to get one very good one or two cheaper (I know what you will say: get two very good ones [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] ).
The second question is : how do you manage to conect the two systems? So that the sequenzer records the midi files and not the wav file from the sampler?
I\'d be grateful for any comments.

It is often said that the President controls foreign policy, and that there is little Congress can do, within its more limited foreign policy mandate, to direct it. The Republican-controlled Congress–and the U.S. House of Representatives in particular–has defied that conventional wisdom by stopping President Barack Obama's worst foreign policy blunder by far–namely, the effort to end U.S. control over Internet domain names, which would have boosted the enemies of freedom.
As L. Gordon Crovitz pointed out Monday in a brilliant column in the Wall Street Journal, the much-derided "cromnibus" spending bill that was enacted in the lame-duck session last year included a section barring the Department of Commerce from spending any money to put President Obama's plan into effect, thus preserving U.S. control over Icann until well into the next presidency, which–Democrat or Republican–is almost certainly going to be less inclined towards surrender.
Speaker of the House John Boehner deserves much credit for ensuring the defense of U.S. sovereignty–which, in this case, is synonymous with liberty worldwide.
The victory is a timely one, as it comes when Congress is trying to take a stronger line against Iran than the administration would like. In the past, efforts to chart an independent foreign policy have been futile or misguided (e.g. Democrats' overtures to Syria in 2007-9). This time may be very different–because it must be.

Baked Camembert with rosemary
There's nothing more delicious or perhaps gluttonous than a baked Camembert. Pierce it with some herbs or garlic, whack it in the oven and wait. Easy. I wasn't sure how to categorise this so went with veg (rosemary) and bakery (20 minutes at 180).
Serves: 2
Time: 25 minutes
1 whole camembert (box and any wrapper removed)
A few sprigs of fresh rosemary
Sourdough cob
Olive oil
Garlic clove, cut in half
Preheat your over to 180 degrees centigrade. Use a sharp knife to mark an X in the top of the cheese (this will prevent it bursting). Pierce the rind with rosemary and then put these back in the base of the box or transfer to an oven-proof dish. Bake in the oven on a baking tray for about 20 minutes or until molten.
Meanwhile slice your bread, drizzle with oil and then rub with the halved garlic clove. Toast on a hot griddle and serve with the cheese. You can eat the rind so devour the whole thing.

The JORC (2012) reporting code describes an ore reserve as "the economically mineable part of a measured and/or indicated mineral resource". It includes diluting materials and allowances for losses that can occur when the material is mined or extracted. It's defined by pre-feasibility or feasibility studies that include modifying factors, and demonstrate that extraction could reasonably be justified at the time of reporting.
Following the guidelines for competency and transparency adopted by the internationally recognised reporting codes JORC Code (2012), CIM Definition Standards (2005), SAMREC Code (2007) and SME Guide (2007), we have the in-house expertise to cover the modifying factors needing to be investigated to a pre or feasibility study level.
Our expertise includes hydrogeology and hydrology, geotechnical, mine design and scheduling, mineral processing testwork and flowsheet development, tailings storage, environment and social impact, and economic evaluation and financial analysis.
We write compliant technical reports to support equity market filings on the major international stock exchanges including competent person's reports, mineral expert's reports and national instrument 43-101 technical reports. We also prepare mineral resource and ore reserve estimates reports for listed companies for their annual information forms.

text: Most CNC Milling Machines (also called machining centers) are computer controlled Vertical Machining Centers or Horizontal Machining Centers. A machining center is a sophisticated CNC machine that can perform milling, drilling, tapping, and boring operations at the same location with a variety of tools. A machining center usually includes an automatic tool changer and a table that clamps the work piece in place. On a machining center the tool rotates, but the work does not. All of the machining centers that we offer are checked by a qualified technician on our warehouse floor and are guaranteed to be in good working order at time of shipment. In addition, our inventory of machining centers may be inspected under power at our Hauppauge (Long Island), NY warehouse at any time during the buying process. Some of the brands of machining centers which we have inventoried are: Awea, Bridgeport, Brother, Cincinnati Milacron, Chiron, Dah Lih, Daewoo, Deckel Maho, Doosan, Dyna, Enshu, Fadal, Fanuc, Haas, Hardinge, Hitachi Seiki, Hurco, Johnsford, Kia, Kitamura, Kiwa, Kuraki, Makino, Matsuura, Mazak, Mighty, Mikron, Millport, Milltronics, Mitsubishi, Mitsui Seiki, Monarch, Mori Seiki, OKK, Okuma, Okuma & Howa, Supermax, Takisawa, Toyoda, Yama Seiki, Yang, and Yasda.

If Democrats own healthcare, we can own the Governor's Mansion in 2012
That path will be healthcare. Specifically, it will be Governor Bobby Jindal's ideological rigidity on taxes in the face of what will be draconian (criminal?) cuts in healthcare in the state budget over the next two years. With healthcare and higher education still the only funding streams not constitutionally protected and the state facing a billion dollar revenue shortfall, Jindal will force the Legislature to make heavy cuts in both programs.
Last week, the Baton Rouge Advocate carried a story saying the higher education cuts will amount to 60 percent over the next two years. No mention of healthcare, but that's where the bulk of the cuts will be and for two reasons. First, that's where the money is (Medicaid is a $6 billion program). Secondly, no one in the Legislature is lobbying to protect the interests of the poor, the handicapped and those with special needs — the victims of these coming cuts. Oh, the hospitals, nursing homes and doctors will object, but you won't see anything resembling the "Intervention at the Mansion" earlier this year where all of the non-imprisoned former governors got together to tell the Boy Governor that he just could not cut $200 million-plus from higher education.
No notables stood up for Medicaid clients then. And none will do it in the coming session.
They are, in the current world of Louisiana politics, "expendable."
That's what happens when Democrats forget who they are and who they represent and buy into the conceit that they can get elected if they run as 'Republican-lite' candidates. Ultimately, they are not Democrats and their votes show it.
Today, Jindal's DHH Secretary Alan Levine dropped the first of what will be many shoes. According to The Advocate, he announced another round of Medicaid budget cuts made necessary because of rising enrollments in the program and the inability of the department to implement cuts fast enough. Poverty is up in Louisiana. Unemployment is up. The number of companies offering health insurance coverage is falling through the floor.
So, Levine, working within Jindal's "No Taxes for Any Reason" straight jacket, is ordering more cuts. This is, of course, a result of issues in the current fiscal year. This isn't even related to the even bigger cuts that will be needed next year.
Senator Harry Reid handed Louisiana Democrats a gift today by including the Public Option in the bill that the U.S. Senate will debate and vote on in a couple of weeks. Word is that the bill will include an "opt out" clause for states to leave the public option.
Is there any doubt as to which way the Jindal administration and Louisiana Republicans will lurch on this? Levine has been taking part in Louisiana Republican Party workshops talking against healthcare reform. Jindal's path to the national Republican stage requires he follow the party's rejectionist strategy, so he will clearly push to have the state opt out of the public option.
But, here's where it gets interesting.
Depending on the year, anywhere between 17 and 25 working age Louisiana adults are uninsured. In July, the Baton Rouge Business Report quoted a spokesman for BlueCross/BlueShield of Louisiana who said that only 30 percent of Louisiana small businesses offer health insurance to their employees and that the number is falling due to skyrocketing rates.
While no one will speak up for Medicaid patients, surely someone will speak up for the rights of the working uninsured and fight the Jindal administration's expected push to, in fact, opt out of the public option — the path to provide affordable coverage to those working age residents without coverage.
The 2011 statewide elections will be the battle ground where this fight takes place. Jindal, if he follows his current course, will have cut higher education by three-quarters of a billion dollars. He will have cut a billion in healthcare spending, eliminating services, shutting institutions, impacting the families of the disabled, the sick and the infirm.
This election will take place on a re-districted state Legislative map. Every district will be redrawn, and it will be pretty radically different due to post-2005/2008 storm induced population shifts.
Democrats should be easy to distinguish from Republicans. The Republicans will be the ones saying they are sorry for the pain, injury and even deaths their cuts inflicted, but that they had no choice. Democrats will be the candidates motivated by outrage at the callous, depraved disregard for the health and well-being of their fellow citizens.
Jindal will be vulnerable in 2011. He will have revealed that everything said about him in 2003 was true — that his knowledge of numbers is matched only by his inability to see the people behind the numbers in state budgets and programs. The healthcare ads that Kathleen Blanco ran against him in 2003 — those credited with sealing her victory then — will ring prophetic.
This man is devoid of compassion and is blinded by his ambition. Our state is paying — and will pay — a fearful price for his limitations.
But, elections are about changing course.
Harry Reid has just set up Louisiana Democrats to take our state back, to walk it back from the brink.
It will be a hard fight — beating incumbents always is. The Louisiana Committee for a Republican Majority (David Vitter's homage to Tom DeLay) did not quite succeed in taking over either house of the Legislature, but they succeeded just enough to give Jindal the ability to defeat tax increases that could stave off some of these cuts. They will also work to ensure that the re-districting process is skewed to favor Republicans.
They, too, are setting him up for defeat — and the members of the House and Senate they sent there to do their ideologically driven work.
The world has shifted. They have not changed. The opportunity to oust them is ripening.

Hey -
Have you seen the new chamber of commerce ads that are trying to push against health care reform and the public option? The ads are basically a response to an earlier ad buy FOR health care reform that was done through Health Equity for All: http://www.healthequityforall.org/
I'm wondering what your thoughts are about these two ads pitting the chamber of commerce WITH health insurance companies and AGAINST groups like NAACP, National Council of La Raza and other more community based groups.
- Mike Stagg said...
Dear 'google',
I am shocked — SHOCKED!!! — that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce is opposed to making healthcare affordable and accessible to anyone but their largest members.
Healthcare reform targets working age Americans (between 19 and 64) who either work at places where health benefits are not offered, or where the cost of the benefits is too expensive. The steadily rising cost of healthcare insurance is breaking the back of the employer-based healthcare coverage system that has existed in this country since the late 1940s.
We are seeing a market failure. Government needs to step in, and will in a limited way under both the House and Senate versions of this effort.
This is not socialized medicine. No hospitals are being bought. Doctors will not be made civil servants. The three BMW garage is not endangered.
This is going to be good for small businesses and working people — which pretty much explains the U.S. Chamber of Commerce's opposition to reform.
They are who they are. They can't help themselves.

When traveling, I like to set out ahead of time the day or evening's clothing, complete with jewelry. I've usually hung my necklace, bangle bracelets, and a ring or three from the head of the hanger holding my outfit. The jewelry is all jumbled together, and more than once I've inadvertently left a piece or two behind, still hanging from the hotel hanger, when I checked out.
Thank you, Jewelinx, for providing a much better system for organizing my "look," while reducing the likelihood of my leaving jewelry dangling at departure. The Jewelinx is a simple yet ingenious little jewelry organizer consisting of a 4.5-inch-long by 3-inch-wide flattish plastic "tree," with a pair of integrated plastic prongs protruding from the front (for draping necklaces), and, below them, two outwardly upcurving hooks for holding bracelets, rings, a watch. Pairs of holes in the sturdy plastic, in varying sizes, provide ideal spaces for securing pierced or clip-on earrings.
An integrated rigid plastic loop on the back of the Jewelinx slips over the hanger head. Voila, you have your jewelry attractively displayed with your clothing, but too overt on its elaborate perch to go unnoticed when packing up.
The Jewelinx comes in white, black or strawberry pink, and can be purchased individually or in combo-colored packs of 5 or 7 — for laying out a whole week's worth of looks, should you travel so accessorized.
Jewelinx is $10.99; combo-colored 5-pack, $49.99; 7-pack, $69.99 at www.hangerjewelinx.com.

Throughout the year we are celebrating our 10th anniversary of Community Network's Seafarers' Link telephone groups.
As part of our celebrations and made possible with a generous grant from The Merchant Navy Fund we hosted a 10th anniversary two day residential conference at Care Ashore.
Many of the members had not previously met face to face but immediately knew they were amongst friends having spoken regularly on the phone.
"For us it's great to see groups evolve to the point where they meet up. It's a pleasure to help in the consolidating of friendships by bringing telephone voices face to face." said Chris Rankin, Project Manager, Seafarers' Link.
Those who attended included members from the Royal & Merchant Navy, able seamen, captains, stewards, chief engineers, radio officer, fisherman's widow to a nursing sister.
James, a Seafarers' Link member, made the journey from rural Norfolk to attend the conference. "It's been like a life raft for me," he said, describing the group he joined following his wife's death. He enjoys chatting with other seafarers on his call. They have become his telephone friends. Seafarers' Link has given him friendship, laughs and a chance to exchange information.
"You feel like you are helping each other."
In addition to talks from SAIL, Seafarers UK and Community Network, a teleconferenced Cornish cream tea was held (a first we think).
Attendees at the conference included Valerie (pictured left) who told us how much she was enjoying her group. You can view a gallery of conference photos here. Thanks for agreeing to feature on our leaflet!
If you are 50+ and have spent some of your life at sea, we'd love you to join Seafarers Link. Contact Chris Rankin at Community Network on 01752 812674 or 020 7923 5250. Or download and complete our self-referral form here
